It was very pleasant that I made Mod . Thank you all. :up:

[Abd_von_Mumit]

Thanks for the mod. It's one of the best eye-candy mods I've seen as for now. Going to try it tonight. Good job!

[ReallyDedPoet]

Getting it now, thanks for this:up::up:

[GT182]

Nice effects OB. :up:

And nice to see hull plates twisted with what looks to be fire burning inside the hull. If that's what you were trying for it seems to have worked out ok. The only question I have is, should the torpedo damage be that large? Especially if it's from just one torpedo.

Can't seem to get the file..... I keep getting this:
There was an error processing your request; it appears to be invalid or there was an error with your conection. Please wait while your request is retried...

If you need further help with a download, please contact FileFront support.

Seems to be problem at the downlload site, I hit download and the dam thing never loads up, is the link dodgy

I tried to make a pilot light of the hull in an impact but I rejected it to affect the damage of DeckGun.

I managed to do it too, but only after like 10 try's. I think I was lucky, as the other folks didn't manage to download it. However - say a word and I'll remove your mod from my server.

[Ocean Blue]

May other people download it ?

I seem to rises count of FileFront. :hmm:

[STEED]

What too do jump out the window or download the final version. :hmm:

DL all the way. :yep:

This mod :rock: :rock:

[Stev1]

Just Downloaded, will install later. Looks Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeem

[Cheapskate]

Filefront download working just fine!

Superb work Ocean Blue :rock: Look forward to your next project.....whatever that may be ????

Thanks also to AvM for hosting. Can't have too many mirrors sometimes!

[GT182]

I still couldn't get it from your FileFrront OB but got it ok from AvM's download. Will install it once back in base. Thanks.

[AVGWarhawk]

Looks great and I'm going to grab it.

[tinitoon]

Thanks a lot !

Looks very good indeed.

[gabeeg]

This is the best damage effect yet. Thanks for your efforts. The only thing that I would like to see is slightly smaller holes left from torpedo hits...they seem a tad too large for realism...but otherwise beautiful. I especially like the gun damage effect!

[Soviet_Warlord]

Wow :o

That's by far the most realistic looking damage I've seen in SHIII so far!! It practically rivals what we've seen in SHIV!!

Awesome job mate!

[MobyGrape]

Filefront download not working.:damn:

[melnibonian]

The damage mod is just brilliant:up:

[bookworm_020]

Will mod this work with GWX??? Just want to make sure before installing. It looks a great mod!!

Thanks for your hard work!:up:

[melnibonian]

Thanks for your hard work!:up:
The mod is fully compatible with GWX. It's just a texture file so it makes no alteration in Cfg and other core GWX files. Try it, it Rocks:up:

[AVGWarhawk]

Attention Kaleuns!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This mod absolutely ROCKS:up:

I recommend it for anyone simply because what has been done here adds A LOT when you in for the kill. The textures and damage have a fantastic look. You will not be disappointed.

I loaded in GWX and it works great!:up: :up: :up:

[Boris]

These look pretty damn amazing. Gonna start using it when I finally have some time to patrol again.

[IRONxMortlock]

Looks fantastic!

I'll download and install this one tonight.

Thanks very much for your effort!!!:up::up:

I agree. I reckon the size should be about half to one third the size in the shots i've seen. Great looking mod though!

[Flybywire]

I really like the mod and will try it with Improved Uboat as I have not yet changed over to Grey Wolves or GWX.

I like the look of the mod but the damage IMO is way to large. I have looked at torp damage photos and it is maybe 1/6th the size.

[jpm1]

The mod s well but the hole seems big

[IRONxMortlock]

I don't think this hole is too large at all. Remember that those samples pics were taken on a small ship. Real torpedo damage is pretty shocking.

Wow - damage looks good for me too. thanks for the great mod.. <S>

[AVGWarhawk]

Look at the freak'in holes in those ships:o. That is just something else!!!!! I think the mod is accurate to size after seeing those!:up:

[jpm1]

What s astonishing it s when it you ve got a ship with for example two holes which joined together make 1/3 of the ship and the ship keeps floating maybe in making the medium sized ships more vulnerable this ll increase the realism

[Kpt. Kozloff]

Hi,
There are two versions of this mod around (v2.0 and Final). Could you tell me which one in your opinion is better, because they seem to differ in file sizes a lot.
In Final version: Expl_mask01_a 175KB, Damage_metal_a 5KB. And in v2.0: Expl_mask01_a 1,025 KB, Damage_metal_a 5 KB. Which one would you recommend?
Thanks.

P.S. They look great by the way.

I recommend the Final version.

In it now v2.0 is excluded from FileFront.

Thanks :D

[Kpt. Kozloff]

Just asking, 'cause i've seen screens from v2.0 and what i'm particularily interested in is the random size of the torpedo hit holes. Do these work the same in the Final version? And is there deph charge damage model as well?
Thanks.

[Jimbuna]

Go for the final version :up:

[tommyk]

Final version looks great! Thats for this mod! Installed with JSGME in mid-campaign. Love it!

[odinfish]

Love this mod...it's a must have. Please include it in the GWX update.:up:

[jpm1]

Yeah the mod s returns very well

Hi doing all :p

I am testing a proto type. It's a small (-30% The conventional ratio Now) Torpedo damage.

I think a It seems to be lacking in force. It is still a trial phase.

I like a full (100%) How about you ?

I like "proto type 02"... smaller yet looking better to me...

[AVGWarhawk]

Ocean, whatever you do looks really awesome to me. Randomization is excellent with the trops and cannon fire. To be honest, I've been getting so antsy to see the 3d holes you created that I'm just shooting at anything and missing all the time:oops: .

KEEP GOING MAN! THIS IS A GREAT LITTLE MOD! IT IS MY MOD OF THE MONTH!:up: :up: :up: :up: .

I can not say enought how much I enjoy this mod. It really adds. First time I used it I hit a Swan in the bow and huge hole appeared. I was flabbergasted. Keep making improvements and I will be first on line to grab it!

[Jimbuna]

Mine too :rock: :up:

[Cheapskate]

Yes, I think so too. Maybe you could add type 2 to the download instead of replacing the larger damage effects?

Then everyone would be happy!!

As said before, this a tremendous mod which adds enormously to my enjoyment of the game.:up: :up:

[letterboy1]

Thanks so much for this mod. I'm about to crank up SH3 . . . I'm still in the Western Approaches lurking around a merchant route. Please let me find one more merchant before I have to head home. :yep:

[edjcox]

Wondered if there's a way to have either debris, fuel oil, smoke exiting from the damage holes?

Having some cadavers floating out might also be interesting much like the bodies blown in the air except modeled for water?

Eeeeek cadavers..???!!!

Oil would do it for me, and I think it should be possible, since the you can see how you loose oil with the u-boat when your fuel bunkers are destroyed. I don't know if he can do that tho, I mean doing textures might not be easy, especially with this quality and depth, but modding those "holes" to emmit smoke or oil is for sure pretty hard for a skinner.

Any chance of a response to the forum rather than a PM :hmm:

[melnibonian]

It looks to me as the default GWX one:hmm: I could be wrong though:hmm:

[danurve]

Well Im very interested in this mod, but looking at the proto type images I must confess I don't know to wait or what's going on. :hmm:

Btw; when I first started going through this thread then noticed the real images, I thought ok well the final (damage) images look big too, but if your not used to seeing this in the game then of course they would.

[AVGWarhawk]

@dan

You can get the 2.0 version now. OB is working on a smaller damage model as part of the package.

[Oilsmoke]

SO where is this 2.0 version Located? I have 2/3/07 ver.

I love the holes in the impact area.:up:
They are little big tho.
I watched the Bismark attack and the texture overlap was pretty messy,( Sorry about the Critic).
But it WAY Better than the stock textures.

Salute.

[Albrecht Von Hesse]

Given my druthers I'd prefer the smaller to the larger. Not criticizing by any stretch of the imagination though! :) I love the damage model itself: very spiffy and nice!

edit: some idea of what torpedo damage looks like, for scaling:

I second that: That's a big hole!

I'm guessing the differences in size damage seen is due to the difference between warships and merchants. Warships seem to have signifigantly smaller holes than merchants. Which makes sense due to their construction I suppose.

Are you certain, though, that that is from a torpedo? That almost looks like collision damage.

[danurve]

What a cool Mod! Knocks the jazz out of the stock damage tga's.
In perspective the damage to smaller merchant shipping looks a bit big but other then that I like it, alot!

[rasmus1896]

this is the best little mod IMO ,but as we all can see from the pictures every shell and torpedo damage is different depending on angels ,warheads ,armor ,ship structure ect.
its impossible to mod it that realistic.

But still it looks very greate to me:rock::rock::yep:

I command you to work fast ,work well and work better.
This MOD is WANTED!!!!!:arrgh!:

[Jimbuna]

Could be considered best mod so far this year :yep:

[Alex]

Could be considered best mod so far this year :yep:

:huh:.... Man, to do this "mod", you just need 2 things : a picture of a ship destroyed by a torpedo, and no more than 1 minute to paste the picture on the "Expl_mask01_a.tga" on Paintshop.... Ocean Blue is a great modder, but I just want to say that's not really a hard job to do this, just try to make your own torpedo damage texture, that's not so hard, Jim. ;)

I don't evaluate then score a mod by how difficult or easy it was to develop and in saying that I include the latest GWX update I'm currently beta testing prior to it's release :yep:
I do however evaluate then score a mod after seeing the impact it has on a game and gauging the feedback from users of this game. :yep:
I take your point about timescales but it only reinforces one of my beliefs....why waste incalcuable time on a mod that is buggy or has a detrimental impact on gameplay when sometimes you can create something extremely quickly that is of immeasurable benefit to so many :yep: :up:

Thanks AVGWarhawk always :up:

I can do it to this size (red circle)

But when I think about the balance that is total Torpedo and deck gun.

I am convinced final version is best.

I'm waiting to see how Vikinger is getting along with modding the values
that control the damage images themselves.
I must also mention it is possible to assign different damage images
to each ship.:yep:

[high3agle]

This mod is a "must have" IMO, I love it, great work man and thanks for sharing it with all of us. I always wondered why there was no torp dmg in the stock version, it used to piss me off, I would fire a couple torps at a ship and you would hear a big BOOM! and all the dramatic explosions and lifeboats flying through the air like rag dolls and all that jazz, then go to free cam to inspect the ship and it looked like nothing had happened to it. This mod really made my day, thanks again.

PS

Maybe someone will be kind enough to put up a screen-shot for you. Unfortunately I don't know how to do that :cry:

[Alex]

Hey, I just had an idea.... If it's possible to assign a torpedo damage texture to every ship, is it possible to assign a torpedo damage texture to all ships when the torpedo hits them under the hull ? :D That would be possible to make a special texture where we see the broken back of the ship. :)

edit : Just let me know if it's possible, and in case it is I'll try to do it. ;)

[Cheapskate]

Actually Alex that sort of happens already.

If you get a good contact (:doh: bit of a contradiction there!) with the magnetic and the damage model decides that the ship's back is broken, then the ship breaks in two with a whacking great ^ chunk out of the bottom.

Nothing really left of the hull to attach a graphic to...unless you are thinking of texturing both halves!

Besides, once it reaches the 'back broken' stage, it doesn't stay around long enough for you to admire the view!

[DivingDuck]

Hi OB,

this damage texture is eye candy at its best, awesome. I love it.

Regards,
DD

[Alex]

@ Cheapskate : hmm.... no, I just think I can model a torpedo damage picture where you can see the broken.... don't know the english word, just see this picture :

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/555/etravexf9.jpg

Do you see what I mean ? In french it's called "étrave", this is the main structure of a boat. And I'm thinking of modeling this broken thing. :)

[AVGWarhawk]

Could be considered best mod so far this year :yep:

No doubt a front runner for the mod of the year.

Some say it is to big but I think not. Today I saw a picture of the Cole that was hit by a bomb brought in by terroists on a rubber boat. It created a very large hole in this vessel. I think OC's mod is dead on for the correct size.

Keep going OC. This little mod is fantastic. I can not say it enough.

[Cheapskate]

@ Alex

Yep, I see what you mean :up:

I think it is called the " stempost "..... the one at the other end is the " sternpost"

With OB's mod, if we get a hit on the tip of the bow or stern ( these aren't critical hits) we just seem to get a blackened view of the original outline. Not that I'm complaining much BTW!!

Anything more realistic, even a transparent missing section....would probably be better...if that's at all possible.

Well ,mate, have a try....see what you can come up with!

Bonne chance!

[Alex]

Thanks ! :p :up:

You're right : even if it's not possible to assign this texture to a impact under the hull of ships, I can at least try to make it, that's true.... Just have to reinstall the game, and I'll see what I can do. In case it looks good, I'll post pictures on this thread ! ;)

[11Bravo]

I just downloaded this mod and compared the two textures with those of my GWX installation. I made an interesting observation.

It seems there might have been an error in the original GWX install. The filenames of Expl_mask01.tga and Damage_metal_a.tga in GWX seemed to be switched. This becomes obvious when you compare the Mod files to the original GWX files.

I don't have time to test this observation any further.

I will try the mod and I am very impressed with the pictures posted and the work that Ocean Blue has done.

I just wanted to point out that GWX might have had an error that kept some good damage textures from appearing in the game.

[AVGWarhawk]

I just downloaded this mod and compared the two textures with those of my GWX installation. I made an interesting observation.

It seems there might have been an error in the original GWX install. The filenames of Expl_mask01.tga and Damage_metal_a.tga in GWX seemed to be switched. This becomes obvious when you compare the Mod files to the original GWX files.

I don't have time to test this observation any further.

Hmmmmmmm:hmm:

[Madox58]

I must also mention it is possible to assign different damage images to each ship. :yep:

Really.... :huh: Did not know this.
Please, can you tell me how I can do that, and how can I assign a torpedo damage texture to a ship ?
This is going to be ********** amazing. :smug::sunny::know:

Here are the specs as to what does what:

MinDamage...The minimum number of hit points that generate a damage decal...
MaxDamage...The number of hit points that cause the maximum damage..
MinDamageRange..The radius of the damage decal for minimum damage...
MaxDamageRange..The radius of the damage decal for maximum damage...
MinDamageAlpha..The transparency of the decal for minimum damage....
MaskTextureName.The texture used for decal shape....
DirtTextureName.The tilable texture with explosion traces...
DirtTileFactor..The number of tiles per 10 meters of ship surface...


These settings are in the .val file

[Alex]

@ Alex
Yep, I see what you mean :up:
I think it is called the " stempost "..... the one at the other end is the " sternpost"
Well ,mate, have a try....see what you can come up with!
Bonne chance!

Here it is. That's a WIP (= I'll try to add more elements and rusty colors, if I release it some day) where the goal is to see if it's possible to draw the broken "stempost" and structure, (thanks for giving me the translation, Cheapskate) when the torpedo hits the ship under the hull. I must say it would work.... The only problem is that texture is not static, sometimes it's not "in the axis with the probable place of the REAL stempost" (= can appear as perpendicular with the real stempost of the ship), I hope you understand what I mean....

hehe, thanks for your words, mate.... Well, first, please excuse me for posting pictures in your thread, OB, I didn't want to highjack it. :)
But there is a problem, I think OB knows it very well, and I want to share it with you guys. The torpedo damage texture have an influence on the deck gun damage one.... It means that if you use the deck gun with that torpedo damage texture, the deck gun damage on a ship will look like this :

http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/6072/dgns2.png



:-? Now you see the problem : this ********** skeleton does NOT have to be here.... OB made a good work, and I think we all have to model this texture just like he did : with details like broken hull and shadows, no more....
My work doesn't look good, and cannot be used because of the influence of the torpedo damage texture on the deck gun damage one.... Until somebody come and find how to remove this influence. :lol: :88)

Hi there Ocean Blue,
I have just loaded up your Torpedo damage mod. The torpedo damage is very good indeed i was just wondering if you could look at the shell damage textures. Here is a pic after a ship has been blasted by a BB and DD escorts.

Hi Alex.

No problem. I'm welcome you this thread. :smug:

I suggest You had better make top and bottom / right and left / the damage picture which you may become diagonally.

And I think about the ratio (balance) of size of two files.


If I makes Carina structure, I become it in this way.

I have not seen a way to coordinate a left/right up/down texture.
It appears to be based on angle of impact?
If I come cross anymore info, I'll let you know.

To assign a texture to a ship, you need only change the TGA reference in the ships
.val file.
Hex Edit it or I can upload the same rule for TimeTravellers SH3 File Analyzer
that I wrote for Vikinger.

I think there is a lot more possible in a lot of areas!
It seems to just take someone willing to experiment out side of
the norms, so to speak.
If I ever find the area I got the info on the damage textures from,
I'll give it a closer look.
I may have missed a bit of info on first glance.

Ocean,

I have your final torp damage...is this another or up-dated :o version?

[von Zelda]

Great mod Ocean Blue.

It would be helpful if you would give the updates version numbers in the name like Torpedo Damage Mod v1.01, Torpedo Damage Mod v1.02, etc.

So far, the last three updates seem to be on 2/28/07, 3/4/07 and now 3/11/07 per the dates on the zip files. Is this correct?

I assume that this latest one (3/11/07) is different and improved?

[Ocean Blue]

Thanks Guys :D

It is improvement just a little bit. add I was able to see damage of metal on the waterline.

It is only it.

If I follow the number it's a " Adjusted Torpedo damage Final "

But I think adjustment still necessary.

[Madox58]

I would guess, (As I have not looked close yet),
that part of the way damage is shown in SH4,
is due to the newer engine.
It appears to make part of the main hull vanish.
Since much more TMAPping is involved in SH4?
Perhaps that's part of it?

You could try converting the tga to dds and check the results.
But I suspect it won't work.
Check the original file in SH4 for Alpha channels also.
And the original ships skins for Alphas also.

Is there a way to keep the damage on the player's u-boat visible after reloading the game?

If I returned with this hole on my hull, I'd be the biggest hotshot in the base... :D

BTW, doesn't this seem a little to excessive for a single gun shell from an armed trawler? It looks like a torpedo hit to me. :hmm: Is this normal, or did something got messed up?

P.S. Great mod! :up:

I don't have any screenies but an aircraft bomb directly hit my boat on the deck gun, destroying it and all I saw was a hole at least a meter across... :arrgh!:

So question: how does this mod work?

And BTW, this is an excellent mod! :rock:

Jim I didn't realised your getting bone naked as your skin is drying out too fast, would you mind putting some extra skin on first before we all approach the Damn Manual it getting too creepy for us to read.

Jim please let us know if you need some glue stick if it keep coming off............Hoochie-koochie Dang, it's still not there.

Holes size is related to the damage radius or power ( i cant remember exactly now)

May be armor and hitpoints of the sub can have effect too.

may be you have a mod increasing the shells damage and power ?

I guess it's connected with the size of a ship - the same amount of damage looks more dramatic on a smaller one.

[chrysanthos]

can you make a damage mod like this for sh4 1,5? please?

[Sailor Steve]

SH4 already has much better damage.

[USS Drum]

Can someone give me the link?

Great mods for the best simulator I've ever played :rock::rock::rock:

[Admiral Halsey]

Does this work with GWX 3.0?

[TarJak]

Yes it does.

[Admiral Halsey]

Yes it does.

Well then I shall download this fine looking mod and once I get back into port proceed to use it.

[Sailor Steve]

I haven't looked at this thread in ages. I guarantee you're gonna love it. :rock:

[Jimbuna]

Does this work with GWX 3.0?

Below are the explosion masks...in no1 it is simply damage and in version no2 you get glowing embers from hot steel.

They both look great in the game but it is down to personal choice which one you use...I personally prefer No1.

I'll go ahead and do a bit more necro-threading.

Where in the blazes has this been hiding, and why has it taken me so long to find it? Downloading the instant I get home, won't even stop to kiss the wife first!

Hi all!. Is there any way to export this mod to sh4?

[Mad Mardigan]

Hi all!. Is there any way to export this mod to sh4?

SH4, has it's own damage models... which, if it were... feasible to translate/transfer the damage images from this, clearly SH3 mod, to SH4... would take a whole lotta work to do so.... just so you know. :shucks: :yep:

I would guess, (As I have not looked close yet),
that part of the way damage is shown in SH4,
is due to the newer engine.
It appears to make part of the main hull vanish.
Since much more TMAPping is involved in SH4?
Perhaps that's part of it?

You could try converting the tga to dds and check the results.
But I suspect it won't work.
Check the original file in SH4 for Alpha channels also.
And the original ships skins for Alphas also.

In case someone wants to use this with Silent Hunter 4, I've found out a way to do it.

I only use it with SH3 ships ported to SH4 and things like that, as I consider the SH4 system to look better, but it takes a lot of time to make new 3D models for the damage. This a fast way to get decent-looking holes in the ships in a very short time.

A) You have to rename the files into something different, so they don't overwrite the original SH4 files, which have the same name but are way different. In my ships, I simply exchanged the last _a of the .TGA files for a _b.

B) Then you need to edit the .val file of the ship with S3D and add a VisualDamage controller, just like in a SH3 ship. Set the Parent ID of this controller to the main node of the ship in the .dat file.

https://i.imgur.com/3YiPCJ0.jpeg

C) Then set the controller properties. I use the same ones as in the SH3 ships, changing only the name of the textures to the ones renamed previously.

https://i.imgur.com/PgW2waI.jpeg

And that's it. You have to repeat those steps with every ship, but the copy/paste of S3D can speed up the process, as you don't need to make any changes between ships (only the parent ID). A bit of work when you have a ton of extra ships in your installs, but I think it's worth the effort.
