I always felt that the u-boat wakes in SH3 were way too short. These images were taken with u-boat running at 18 knots flank speed. They may be a little bit too long. What does everyone think?

[vanjast]

I'd say the wake should be about 30-40% length of the one in the top pic

[danlisa]

This is excellent. :rock:

Does this lengthened wake have any effect on enemy detection routines? Will planes spot the wake from distance etc?

[Albrecht Von Hesse]

Not having seen an actual wake for a boat doing flank I can't say dead on, or otherwise. I do, however, recall reading about the Pacific Theatre, where pilots found enemy convoys by the wake disturbance they'd left hours beforehand. Considering that, and looking close at your work, it could be said that the first 30 - 40% is an actual wake, and the remaining trail is the visible turbulence/disturbance.

At any rate :up: :up:

Could something like this be added for the surface ships, too? Might be nice to try trailing a convoy by actually trailing their wakes. :arrgh!:

I really don't know. But I was wondering the same thing.

I think it might be possible to lengthen surface ship wakes too. I also think it's possible to make ship wakes last for several hours. Not sure about frame rate hits, though.

Well, I think that answers my question. Length looks just about right to me. :yep:

[Nippelspanner]

I like it.

The length is OK I think, but the wakes should be a bit wider at the end, like a looong Triangle... But thats not possible I think.

Anyway, this is better than stock and im pretty sure it shouldnt affect the FPS, and if, not much anyway.

You could do the same for the Ships, play a Convoymission and take a look at the FPS if theres a drop or not... Jut a suggestion...

[Venatore]

yep me to, the wake would be shorter/longer depending on speed....correct?

[d@rk51d3]

Looks great. It will definitely help with tracking units on the surface in a fog.:up:

[Boris]

Yeah, ships is where this really matters... hope you work it out

[Phoenix3000]

Hi, that certainly IS good!

I for one am looking forward to this!

As said above, ship wakes can last hours depending on speed.

Question though - as the wake 'height' so-to-speak cannot be modified, will we be able to visibly detect a ships trail from so low down on a u-boat conning tower? (Hope that makes sense.)

For example - on a calm sea, a ship may have left a wake, but because it's not possible to mod the 'ripple' effect of churned up water from a distance it may not be completely visible.

Just my 2-cents.....

Px3000

[Albrecht Von Hesse]

Now I'm about to call wrath down upon me for this, but . . .

I've never been happy with the pitiful periscope 'feather' the game has. Can you apply an increased wake for raised 'scopes and snorkels too?

[oRGy]

The wake photo Venatore refers to is actually of a u-boat leaking fuel.

The wake is just right, if a bit dim and narrow, but I suppose that couldn't be helped.

I'd love to see wakes like that for every sub and ship in the game, but I suppose the FPS hit would be too severe:cry:.

[CWorth]

Looks great and the wake length looks about right in comparison to this story..Found here http://home.satx.rr.com/bombardment/htmdocs/submarine.htm

A B-18 bomber, piloted by Lt. Lehti of the 99th Bombardment Squadron based at Zandery in Dutch Guiana, took off at midnight on October 2, 1942, and flew eastwards to its assigned patrol area along the French Guiana coast. At about 4:00 a.m., the radar operator advised Lehti that he had a contact at twelve miles. Lehti brought the aircraft down to three hundred feet and began his run in. At a mile, he was over a U-boat's wake, heading northwest. Within seconds, the boat was spotted moving very slowly and fully surfaced. The B-18 dropped lower and came boring in, dropping two depth-bombs as it crossed the U-boat. One 650 pound bomb entered the water ahead of the boat with another 325 pound bomb 30 feet further on. The U-boat, although obviously damaged by the blast, has disappeared by the time that Lehti could get his aircraft round for a second attack. Lehti turned his B-18 for the shore 120 miles distant, crossing over the prominent Cayenne lighthouse, he got a good check on his position


Notice the highlighted area..."At a mile,he was over a Uboats wake"
As well as this..."the boat was spotted moving very slowly "

[stabiz]

@Nvdrifter: :rock: Gotta love the SH3-community.

[Myxale]

Nice lead there mate!

I would lowe to have a longer lasting "wake" after you dived. I read that planes used to drop their bombs into that wake. They say that this stayed long after the boot dived.

[Jimbuna]

This is quite exciting :yep:
God speed Nv :up:

[GT182]

Sounds great Nvdrifter. :up: Every ship is now in for a big heap of trouble. ;)

Venatore, your link brought some very interesting tactics to light too. Thanks. :up:

[Shaffer4]

It was mentioned somewhere that Convoys were stalked by following thier wakes...

[GT182]

Great find oRGY. :up:

[Safe-Keeper]

The problem is that when you up time compression, wakes go away. So you'd have to use SH3 Commander to increase the max time compression for Particle Drawing or something.

Also, your watch officer doesn't exactly report spotted wakes.

[Letum]

Top Mod! :up:

I allways hated the short wakes in SH3 :up:

[jaxa]

Nvdrifter, it looks good, but don't waste your time and make LRT v1.32 :D

[nvdrifter]

Nvdrifter, it looks good, but don't waste your time and make LRT v1.32 :D
Don't worry. I'm still working on LRT, too. I will check out that file you sent me.

Making longer wakes isn't a waste of time. :shifty:

Also, LRT v1.32 will eventually be released. But I don't want to feel pressured to release it in a hurry. I'm not in that much of a hurry.

[Sailor Steve]

Those look good, nvdrifter. The only problem I can see is that the actual wake, that is the foamy part, usually only lasts for a minute or so, making it much shorter at lower speeds. The residual disturbance does indeed go on for miles, but there's no actual 'foam' in it; it looks like the water is actually smoother than the surrounding ocean. Of course you can see that in your photos, I just thought I'd point it out.

SH4 looks like they're doing something about that as well.

[Sailor Steve]

I believe wakes can be widened. But I am not positive... yet. Will look into it.
Yes, they can be altered. The original wakes were wider, and there was a mod that made them narrower. RUB contained this; I don't know about newer mods. I also don't know anything about how to do it, just that it should be doable.

Nvdrifter, don't feel pressured. I like your mods very much and Longer Wakes Mod is good like others.
Simply I don't play SH3/GWX without LRT and I'm waiting for next release - this is absolutely "must have" for me.
Keep your good work :up:

[Stev1]

:rock:

Planes also leave a lengthy wake in the sky which widens at the end over a period of time.

[AVGWarhawk]

I think NVdrifter summed it up very well with his pics. The wake extends for quite a distance.

[nvdrifter]

After further testing, it seems that the longest (correctly working) wakes I can make are about 8 kilometers long. And I have successfully changed wake width (Sailor Steve was right). I will go ahead and try to change all ship wakes for GWX and release the mod. Shouldn't take too terribly long. :sunny:

[panthercules]

Oh man! this looks very cool indeed - I did manage once (way way back, with maybe stock or an early RUB version) to spot and sink a lone merchant in heavy fog by first spotting its wake and following it along until I just barely spotted the ship ahead in the fog and getting it with a magnetic shot up the stern, but that was the only time when I ever saw the wakes play a role, so this looks like another great piece of work - way to go nvdrifter :rock:

Here are some pics of the progress I have been making with Longer Ship Wakes v1.0 mod. The last photo shows just how short the vanilla SH3 ships wakes really are compared to my version. I am trying to make cargo ship wakes longer than in these photos, but I'm still not yet sure if it will work.

[danlisa]

Is it just me or are the wakes getting wider the further away from the ships they get?

It might just be perspective.:88)

[Sailor Steve]

:o WOW! I can hardly wait to see that in motion on the screen...provided odinfish's concern for frame-rate problems doesn't prove to be true.

Still, it looks fantastic.

Testing on a large convoys hasn't really hurt my framerates too much. Remember, unless you are flying for the Luftwaffe or using the external camera, you won't see the wakes like this. Most of them will be flat and not too visible from the u-boat watch tower or periscope perspective. I am guessing the computer would use more processing power to keep track of each wake, but not much more video card power.

I just tested it on rougher seas, and it works fine. Doesn't affect the wakes at all. ;)

Awesome looking work on those curves :rock:

But something about that last picture looks a little odd compared to some of the earlier ones - it looks like maybe the wake has gotten too wide right around the u-boat itself. I'd have to try to find some pictures to really tell for sure, but it just "feels" a bit too wide in front of and around the boat - is that maybe a function of the speed? Is that picture also taken at flank speed? If so, do you have some pictures with the boat going a slower speed?

In any event - this looks like an amazing addition/improvement - keep up the good work :up:

[CWorth]

The ships look great but I am not to sure how realistic that torpedo wake is.

Considering the "wake" it is leaving is due to bubbles coming to the surface from the steam engine running it I would think that the bubbles would dissapate alot quicker before leaving a wake that long compared to disturbed water from a say 1000 ton ship moving through it.A tad longer than the stock would be good but that to me just seems a bit overkill.Though just my opinion.

It depends a lot on the water. Salinity, temperature and algal population all have a huge impact on wake.
A torpedo wake will stay for half a hour in some waters.

Really looks good.

I have been experimenting with making wakes appear when between decks awash and when the conning tower just breaks the surface. This pic was taken while cruising around at a depth where the conning tower was barely breaking the surface.

Excellent work with the torp wakes - I tried your latest mod version and they look great streaking away from the sub.:up:

Just a quick point though - when the torpedo turns you get very sharp angles - this is very noticeable when you fire one and it turns immediately after launch - you can see this 'corner' of wake on the surface.

I've got a couple of screenshots below so you can see what I mean. Is it possible to smooth these out as you did with the u-boat wake?

(Excuse the grainly images - they look rough when hosted - I can't seem to get it right via Imageshack).

I suggest using FRAPS to take the pictures, I believe they are better quality. I maybe wrong for this next suggestion, but maybe you could start using Photobucket or Webshots. Atleast these places offer Albums and not one photo at a time, and seem to resize crisper(I use Photobucket)

[Madox58]

Photobucket is way better!
Now if I can just get FRAPS to work right.

**Update Released**

Longer Torpedo Wakes v1.02 for use with GWX

This mod makes torpedo wakes visible for much longer than vanilla SH3. Torpedo wakes will now be visible for approximately 45 seconds now. Hopefully this mod will add some realism and eyecandy to your game. ;)

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

Changes/fixes in v1.02:

-Fixed blocky corners for steam-powered, guided torpedoes. Steam-powered, guided torpedo wakes will now have smooth edges when turning.

I agree Drifter, release only when all wakes are sorted. Brilliant mod by the way, will it be compatible with NYGM ? I'm happy to test it.

Cheers, Hans.

Likewise, if you don't feel like doing the work, you can simply send me the parameters you used and I can adapt them to NYGM files :hmm:

Just kidding! :p I am finished with testing and am in the process of changing over all of the ship and u-boat files. I should be finished in a day or two. Everything is going fairly smoothly.
