[REL] correct interior diving angles - Page 6

dcb · 05-23-08, 02:22 PM

In my GWX 2.1 install, it works like a charm. No weird effects and it is a big immersion factor. Now it really feels like diving and rising. Thanks alot Vickers.

Installed and experimented. All is well and fine. Right angle!

If anything it seems to make the problem worse (gwx 2.1 version).

The shots below were taken after a crash dive with the boat perfectly level at 70m, as you can see, all is not well.

During the dive everything looked roughly correct but the camera stayed like this even after the dive had levelled off.
I re-installed and re-tested the mod but got the same problems repeatedly.

+ only tested with a VIIc.

i get this too on occasion mainly when switching between radio and command room.
maybe there's a connection between a modded cameras.dat, i personally don't use the one delivered
with gwx.

since the problem also occurs in Anvart's original work
(type2 boat) i can't deliver a solution right now.

however, switching rooms in 3d mode and not
using the shortcuts seems to work better.

Hi,

but what about the fact I posted earlier, how this bug is reproducable?

Once you click on the CE, the camera gets messed up, and stays that way until you restart, so I think maybe it has to do with the camera-angle when zoomed-in on him...

(this bug is reproducable)

Also, maybe the angles are a bit too steep, as, when I surfaced, the camera clipped through the forward periscope in the type VII...

Please continue your great work!

The bug may have occured for me since i was changing cameras from fore/aft control room and into the RR to test the mod, ive found that if i stay in one spot and dont jump around the boat like a crazy person, everything works perfectly, so i guess it was me that failed and not the mod

++ Oddly i dont get any problems when clicking on the cheif as was mentioned by another poster.

It seems to work fine in the VIIC. I tried it out in a new career & the only (slightly odd) thing that I noticed is that when in a dive, if I clicked on the CE, I physically "crashed through" the observation periscope!

Otherwise everything looked great. The control room levelled off when we reached the depth that I'd ordered. It's a great mod.

I can live with the oddity that I mentioned above. Does the mod also affect the radio room/sonar shack/captain's cabin or was I just imagining things (I hope not as I'm only 44 & I'm not ready for senile dementia just yet.

).

Thanks, I'm 55, I really needed to hear that!

Now where did I leave my glasses, oh yeh, I'm wearing them!

It works fine here too, I`m using GWX 2.1, no problems in any of my boats. Puts

Works very good - fantastic job

Konovalov · 05-25-08, 11:22 AM

So far so good for me. I'm loving it. More immersion goodness in SHIII thanks to another little nifty mod.

silversurfer · 05-25-08, 02:27 PM

Myxale · 05-25-08, 06:19 PM

thanks for your observation, please let me know what
version you are using and if you have a modded cameras.dat:hmm:
as for the angles, they should represent the real diving angle as seen in exterior view.

the mod should affect the radioroom, but only when
you are standing.

Sorry.
The small note:
I have made AnvartsType2_CR.7z mod on October, 4th 2006.
In readme:
"...
This mod is for SH3 stock game ver. 1.4b.
...
This mod fix some mistakes in Type 2 Command Room interior (+ move Obs/Periscope).
This mod simulates an inclination (or roll for interior) of a submarine at diving and surfacing for cameras:
RadioSonarRoom, HydrophoneView, RadioView, CapitainsbedView, InteriorForeView,
InteriorAftView, NavigatorView, WeaponOffView and HelsmanView.
..."

This silution has been tested in August 2006.

P.S. AnvartsType2_CR.7z file has been removed many times from my FileFront page ... by FileFront ...

ok ok, it's two years now

so look what i've done to your work, i screwed up!

just kidding
i didn't include your command room, just the .sim file
and made the adjustments for all other boats.
it seems that sometimes the angles get wrong again
and stays that way.
what again was the solution for it?
