[REL] Torpedo .sim Tweak Files for SH4 v1.2

**Released! Torpedo .sim Tweak Files for SH4 v1.2**


Updated v1.1


What's new in v1.1:

-corrected a few mistakes found in the Mark 14 and others tweak files (Thanks CCIP for the tip)

-simplified and clarified drop down menus in each tweak file



I created these 6 SH4 Torpedo Tweak Files for use with Time Traveller's Mini Tweaker program. The torpedo names in this tweak file are listed by their correct names (thanks Kaolla). All 6 of these tweak files change torpedo settings located in the Torpedoes_US.sim file.



The following parameters can be changed with this file:

-torpedo speeds
-torpedo failure percentage rates
-torpedo failure dates
-running depths
-other values


Many thanks to Time Traveller who made such a great modding program for SH3 and SH4.

Well, it seems that there are now 2 acoustic torpedoes listed in the v1.2 .sim file. The first is probably still the Mark 27, but the second one... I have no idea. Any clues?

Do you have any way to test it?

I sort of suspect that, as was with one entry for SHIII, it's just a torpedo type that's not actually implemented in game.

It will still work, but the Mark 27 file is actually the 'unknown' acoustic torp file.

It's a new entry added into the 1.2 patch. Not sure why they would add it but not use it.

I am sure it's a separate torpedo because it's listed as acoustic, but a different type than the acoustic Mark 27. :hmm:

I'm not sure what it could be. I'm starting to suspect it could be an AI-launched torpedo. There don't seem to be any other guided types actually available for equipment on subs in the game.

...well that explains the unused torpedo, just like I was saying


Yea, that happens, seeing how the tweaker's set to that folder by default. Great, waiting for it!

Ok. It's uploaded again. Sorry about that. I missed one setting for the acoustic Mark 27. All is well now.
