[REL] Pimp My Ride

NEON DEON · 03-15-09, 11:14 PM

The Balao goes back to 1941 dressed as a Gun Cruiser!

Readme:

Requirements: SH IV version 1.4
Installation: After unzipping, copy PimpMyRide folder to mods folder in SH IV directory and then use JSGME to acivate mod.

Changes from Stock SH IV Version 1.4:

This mod changes the start date for The Balao class fleet boat to the begining of the war from both Hawaii and Manila bases in campaign mode for the years 1941,1942, and 1943.

The boat comes standard with SD and SJ radar. It also sports four 5"25 deck guns with 350 Low trajectory HE rounds each! All four deck guns will fire at surface targets.

Boat sits lower in water.

Surface speed increased to 23 knots. An elite crew will make her go even faster.

Max operating depth redline set to 165 meters. Crush depth is classified.

SHip surface range increased to 18,000 miles @ 10 knots.

Ship comes equiped with special LazyBoy Engine Telegraph.

IE: Ring up 1/3 speed submerged and go 2 knots for optimum Battery life. Ring up 2/3s on the surface and go 10 knots for optimum fuel consumption which is also best speed to recharge the batteries.

Ship as a whole will take 20% more damage. All that surface action tends to put a bit of ware on the boat .)

Pictures:

Firing a broadside.

Issues:

All guns fire at surface targets only. The ship has no AA! DIVE DIVE AWOOGA!

Not responsible if this blows up your computer.

Use it any old way you want just remember where it came from.

Rockin Robbins has made this great video of Pimp My Ride in action:

http://files.filefront.com/Neon+Deon+Pimp+My+Ridewmv/;13698525;/fileinfo.html

Pimp My Ride is now up on Subsim too:

Thanks Mr. Robbins for this great video.

Neon.

PS.

Here is how to run the Rockin Robbins mission in the video yourself.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Announcing the new all-time tonnage leader in the under 10 minute category and under 20 minute category. Actually, we ran out of targets

.

Setup: Stock game, Webster's Ship Maneuverability Fix and Neon Deon's Pimp My Ride . That's it. No Slightly Subnuclear weapons were used here. And the mission is my Shooting Gallery Test Range

So check out sixteen minutes of pure mayhem and excitement with four 5" 25 caliber deck guns decimating a flotilla of armed tankers. The record stands at 100,000 tons in 7 minutes 22 seconds, 180,000 tons in 14 minutes 11 seconds.

This is the most fun ever! Here's the video 100000 tons in 7:22--Pimp My Ride

If you're a realism guy who sneers at god-mode mods, I DARE you to check this out. If you end up without a big stupid grin on your face, you're not human!

A word of caution. If you shoot the gun yourself, you are shooting only one gun and wondering what all the fun is about. Let the crew shoot the guns and watch the utter destruction!

Kick Azz - I love popping up and releasing the hounds on the poor unsuspecting victim, they don't even has a chance to zig zag.

Torpedoes? we don't need them...

I like to sneak up on unarmed merchants and battle surface from 200 meters on a parallel course. BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM! From that range, the AI can hit almost every time.

Leaves more shells for long range duels with the armed ones.

Oh by the way this works good in 1.5 also.
