posting here to bring it ahead of the class

looks like someone has to backed up this mod somewhere else than filefront....now its gone forever....

the link is dead, does anyone have a clue where to get it?

I couldn't find it here, and we might have someone with better search skills than me try, but here's an off-site link:
http://www.nexusmods.com/silenthunte...ific/mods/93/?
Just be careful of them. I have no idea who is behind that, or what their intentions are. The downloaded file looks clean on my machine. Maybe it could be added here, if it's not already...

okay, thanks

An update coming for 2023 .... just managed to change a few settings that seem to have resolved a major bug. Torpedoes no longer gradually sink after AI units fire them.

This massively improves the hit rate. Plus, no need for workarounds, like ultra-fast unhistorical top speeds for the torpedo.

In a test mission, some "M" class destroyers managed nice straight shots that blew up my U-Boat.

Still needs some work, but it's coming!

The latest version will solve the issue; someone had mistakenly giventhe launcher an elevation capacity that was way too high or low - causing dep runners and torpedoes that hit the seabed.

More testing went well .... UK destroyer squadron with 6 ships have been sinking a German oil tanker with about a 10 - 20% hit rate. Pretty good given that the tanker is moving at 18 knots and evading.
