[REL] Critical hits for torpedos - Page 2

Church SUBSIM · 03-09-10, 03:14 PM

Anyone get a CTD when using this mod?

I just hit a Battleship in Scapa Flow and as soon as the torpedo made contact the game crashed (first ever for me in SHV).

Thats weird, i cant think of a way that my mod would cause the crash.

Anyone having similar experience?

To all people, how is the balance? torps to strong/weak? Burning/Flooding working?

You know, I'm going to give this a try. I was a little leery, glancing at the thread title I thought at first it was another "TIII into Mk48" kind of thing, but you're reasoning and approach convinced me that something needs to be done about the DM. Well done!

I know what you mean.

All these Type XIII Nuclear Torps for SH 3 + SH 4

Mainproblem is that stock damage is allmost allways the same, this leads up to 2 torpedos for a small merchant and 3-4 for a bigger one with little variety.

Thats why i did this mod, to give the torps a more random feel and to fix the no flooding/burning damage.

Seems like most people like how these new torps are balanced, you could still need 3-4 torpedos to sink a single merchant or just one with some luck

I would absolutely love this and the deck gun mod, if you made 50% toned down versions.
Basically, still critical chance for deck guns and torpedoes, but lower max damage, like say 100-300 torpedo damage and the equivalent decrease in your deck gun mod.

In vanilla they do too little damage, but in your mods they can do too much dmg imo

Well I have been getting CTD a ton lately and now to think of it I installed the deck gun mod as well as some others. Perhaps the mods are crashing me. A shame if they are I love them all so much. I think I will try vanilla and see what happens.

Ok - I managed to load that same game with the mod and it worked perfectly ... as a matter of fact ... this mod kicks complete ass. You never know for sure what you are going to get. I managed to take out a merchant with 1 and then needed 3 to get the next one. I love it.

Thanks for making and sharing this mod!

The cannon mod is way to über. I wiped out a 15 ship convoi. I sank half the ships with just 3-4 shots each with the cannon.
If you could make a version with 50% less power than it is now would be very nice.

The torpedo mod works nicely. Haven't noticed any über behaviour like the deck gun.

Thanks

Thanks for your effort
Is this mod historically accurate?

Might need a bit of tweaking. I ran into a carrier tonight and launched a 4 torp spread. Only 1 hit but it set her whole deck ablaze and she sank in about 20 sec. I guess that one eel must of been packin a bit extra.

Yes, i think you got pretty lucky and the torp did 400+ damage on the fuel tank which multiplies the damage

I will tone down the damage on the critical deckgun mod right now

Edit: New version, critical hits for deckgun with 25% lower damage is out. Deleted the old version it was way to strong

Just overite it, disable + enable it in JSGME

i think i hit the spot in the torpedo mod pretty well

DasBoot73 · 03-10-10, 05:20 AM

Very nice, thank you!

i have some troubles with the DL http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=163663

Yes, thats because the old subsim site isnt working yet. Should take some hours than everything will work again.

DasBoot73 · 03-10-10, 06:56 AM

Not sure if this did happen because this mod or if there is another sub around, but when i was returning from Scapa Flow, there was one battleship and multiple escort, first i thought they were after me, so i tried sneak silently away, suddenly one destroyer did sink and maybe 10 minutes after, another one went bottom, both were on highly deep water when this did happen.
