Is it a bug or a secret german UFO?

[HanSolo78]

@Niume

I think it is a"bug" from the cloud particles...

So do you recommend to set it directly to 20, or for example in steps at first only for 6 as in GWX?

[itadriver]

You can try. The problem is that, as i told, DDs compartments in zon file are not in the correct position. Zones n.167 and 168 should be placed up the bow and up the stern.
If you have heavy sea and, because of the pitching of the ship, bow or stern go down more than the value you setted in "crash depth", that compartment is immediately destroyed and the DD sink.
It is also necessary to change the values LR and UD, as i wrote in previous post, to reduce the roll and the pitching of the ship..
Batteships and cruisers do not suffer of this problem becouse they are biggest.

[Progrocker]

Where i am able to change flotilla new basis dates? I want to be stationed on French coast as in real history in july-september 1940, not to wait and always loose time and fuel circling around British Isles until mid to late 1941.

For example, 2nd flotilla was moved to Lorient as early as in june 1940, here its in june 1941.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2nd_U-boat_Flotilla

"The flotilla was based in Kiel for the first few weeks after its formation, but was later moved to Wilhelmshaven, where it remained until May 1940. In June 1940, the flotilla was moved to Lorient in France until it was disbanded in August 1944."

@Progrocker

I will add a screenshot soon so you can see what to change!

@chipsranger

Ahnenerbe FHD resolution or MaGUI will not work at the moment with full interior.
But soon!


EDIT: Flotilla date change... change the year to 1940 in the flotilla.cfg file

Hi Hans
suggestions for improvement
1/ As for lighter nights now with your addition its fine to me
2/ about flak c30 zwiling . i noticed that aiming at an a/c and bullets going
abou 20 degree to the right, insted of c30 that aiming its ok
3/ now about explosions and wakes. I think that is too white and bright
compare #1 with #2
In my opinion water color of the explosion ( white) its more "natural" than #1
the same with wakes



Thanks for your efforts
cheers

ps forgive me for my bad english

Hi ,

I have modified dates as explained by Hans


1940 French bases :

https://www.dropbox.com/s/n0ryccn9v3...0bases.7z?dl=0

active with jsgme


For those who wish for the operational French bases from 1940 (instead of 1941) in particular
2nd and 7th flotilla.

But keep in mind that in 1940 the French bases served
especially as supply bases. U-Boats did not stay there. French bases were not
enough protected and bunkers were built only from the beginning of 1941...

And I have corrected beginning dates for 12th Flotilla in La Pallice-Bordeaux 10/1942 (instead of 01/1942)
and for 29th Flotilla in Toulon 08/1943 (instead of 07/1944)



dates in game

1rst flotilla :
08/1939 - 05/1941 : Kiel
06/1941 - 09/1944 : Brest


2nd flotilla :
08/1939 - 05/1940 : Wilhelmshaven
06/1940 - 08/1944 : Lorient (instead of 1941)


3rd flotilla :
11/1941 - 08/1944 : La Pallice-La Rochelle


7th flotilla :
08/1939 - 09/1940 : Kiel
10/1940 - 08/1944 : St Nazaire (instead of 1941)
09/1944 - 05/1945 : Bergen


11th flotilla :
05/1942 - 05/1945 : Bergen


12th flotilla :
10/1942 - 08/1944 : Bordeaux (instead of 01/1942)


29th flotilla :
12/1941 - 07/1943 : La Spezia
08/1943 - 08/1944 : Toulon (instead of 07/1944)
