evan82's XXI Autocannon Mod [GWX 3].

evan82's XXI Autocannon Mod [GWX 3].

Hi. I made this mod for fun, not historical realism!
It adds more powerfull cannon for XXI sub.
One new bullet type; for XXI submarine guns.

Now guns have 7000m range, and work like a
autocannon. You can fire to aircrafts and small ships.
In stock game eaven to the something simmilar to C2 cargo.
Do You like to try it in GWX?

Amunition for this toy is really new, so only You will have these
bullets in Your guns in game! No more simmilar enemy fire!
Nice, hmm?

If You ever dreamed about gun for XXI
[and gun on this boat will probably look stupid],
now You have something!

IMPORTANT!
I don't use GWX, so I don't know what damage model is there. Maybe, simmilar
in ship Zon Files, but if someone like to upgrade or decrease power of this
shells, then he should download Silent3Ditor program
[link is on the SubSim.com somewhere]and open "Shells XXI.ZON"
file from my mod in Silent3Ditor, and change values in this file.


INSTALATION:
First, buckup Your orginal "GUNS_SUB.sim" file from Your Library folder.
Copy my files to Your Library game folder [only files, not folders].
This is all, but I sugest You to use this mod when
You start a new career. Otherwise, You may have troubles.

"GUNS_SUB.sim"file in this mod is from GWX 3!!!

This mod and new bullet is my idea. Maybe, I'm not first in this idea, but
write about my work in Your files, if You
like to use this idea or mod in Your official mod.

Write to me on SubSim Forum if something is wrong with this mod!
My nick there is evan82.

Best Regards!
Link to this mod [version compatible with GWX3]

File Factory link to this mod [version compatible with GWX3]

And now, thanks to Wreford Brown this mod is compatible with JSGME.
Link to JSGME version of this mod

[EDIT]
If You know S3D program, You can always change this guns/bullets to more historical 30mm, or 40mm. 30mm, and 40mm guns should have old sound.
For old sound don't use DSD file.

Finally. Someone making "fun mods". What I'd really like to see more of is fictional/experimental stuff you can buy as upgrades for the boat. Well balanced stuff though. Just more content.

Thank you

Thanks. Everyone can use his own values. Just one file must be open in Silent3Ditor [S3D] program - Shells XXI.zon file:

It's possible to change few values here:

For example, I changed armour penetration level to 15 now.

Ya, know, i love putzing around in 1939 in a XXI, because I can! But I do miss having an 88 or 105 on it. I will give this one a whirl, but has anyone figured out how to get a big gun on this boat?
