LuftWolf and Amizaur's Weapons and Sensors Realism Mod - Page 71

Hi, I'm new to the LWAMI mod.
Just installed 3.10, only some user permission problems that have been fixed.

My question is, what is APAD?

P.S: Thanks for all the hard work!

EDIT

Been kindof quiet. Is the RA team working on anything in particular?

Yes - many bugs were eliminated for ver. 1.2 - for example when user submarine or ship, was sunk with 0 percents of damages - was removed.

Or the radars by the ships began job incorrectly (EMCON an option with the bug) by counterdetect enemy.

RBU - now work very precisely and very effectively. (it is altered like FleetCommand RBU job)

Silly job of submarines at short distances detect enemy at start mission - was removed.

From a gun (76 mm for O.H.Perry or 100 mm gun for Controlled Udaloy DDGH) - it is possible now to shoot on a submarine on PD - and to kill her.

And many other useful things...

very nice.

But I have to ask, the lookout on the bridge (wether on the perry or udaloy) is capable of reporting visual contacts up to several nm.
Can it report automatically also a submarine at periscope depth ?

Finally being able to use all available sensors (including lookouts) to track nearby subs.

cant see the new units whats the problem with the install using windows 7 ?

Treetop64 · 02-28-12, 02:35 PM

You prolly know this already but don't install anything to Win7's or Vista's default folder (Program Files (x86)). Create your own installation paths. Avoids a lot of headaches that way.

You shouldn't make such a blanket statement like that. It may apply to you if you install as a user rather than an admin, but I have DW installed without issue to the x86 programs folder on W7 and run it without issue as an admin.

arief.satriyo · 04-01-12, 11:57 AM

I just recently install DW and LWAMI and I notice that the TA position (TB-16 & TB-23/29) has been swap. How do I switch back the TA position just the way it is..??? I relatively new in this mod things so I don't have a clue how to do it and the reason I'm installing mod is to improve "realism" so I prefer thing's the way it is in the real-world.
And thanks beforehand

Molon Labe · 04-01-12, 04:21 PM

This isn't something I've played around with in DWEdit, but my suggestion would be to swap assignments in the Mast Dialog. If that doesn't work (causes a crash?), you could just swap the specifications and names on the sensors themselves.

How do I do that?
Like I said before I m new to DW

Molon Labe · 04-03-12, 06:28 AM

New users generally don't mess with DWEdit. But it's actually rather simple, and this task in particular should be fairly straightforward.

First, make a backup of the mod database. Just copy and paste the database folder someplace safe.

If you don't have DWEdit (and why would you, unless you're a modder), it's available at subguru. The mast dialog page is accessed through the icon with the black symbol that looks sort of like an old train's locomotive. From there you'd select the mast you wanted to change, e.g. "688I TA Stb" and double click the name to populate the entry. One of the fields that would be filled in with a reference to a sensor, such as "688 TB-23." I haven't done this part before, but I'd imagine if you double clicked that field a window would come up allowing you to select any of the sensors in the database, so you'd select 688 TB-16 and click OK. Then you'd click Apply to write the changes to the DB, repeat for the port array, and click the Save icon to overwrite the old DB.

ok Thank's for the tip I will try it

Is there any version of LWAMI that doesn't swap the TA (TA on the right place as it were on real-life) or do I need to downgrade the mod before the version that swap the TA..??

BTW Is there any reference sheet of this mod regarding platform, sensors, weapons..??? All I can find are reference sheet for stock DW but no LWAMI. It's very difficult to make the necessary tactical estimate let alone judgment without having reference sheet

Thank's beforehand
