Two Deck guns?

[emtmedic005]

I have looked at some of the pics on the forums and some of the u-boats have a forward deck gun and an aft deckgun. How can i get two deck guns on my boat?

Hi , it might be that youve seen a few pics lying about of the

Type IX-XI Uberboot mod that is currently under development

it has two 105mm's fore and aft plus in most pics
a single 37mm forward and a quad twenty up top

it may be that that is the sub youve seen.
it is still under development and has not
yet been Released

the one behind the conning tower is a 37 mm anti aircraft gun (flak / AA what ever you choose to call it)

[emtmedic005]

OMG:rock::rock::rock::rock:
That boat is going to be awesome. If Germany had boats like that, they would have won the war:roll:

When will that mod be out? and will it be compatible with TGW1.1?

I mean when I put the Type VIIC/4 conning tower on I added a second
105mm deckgun on the aft platform that is what I mean.

[Morts]

[Mush Martin]

sweet camo, how do you do that is that under the upgrade options?

The Camo is the very same camo
as Seth released earlier this week
its under the header

Skin For Type IXB release or something like that
the skins already available from the guy who made it.

[Phil]

sweet camo, how do you get that is that in the upgrade options?

[Mush Martin]

more or less just follow your nose.

[Phil]

is the camo only for the ixb or can it go on other types of boats?

[Morts]

only IXB
you will have to download another skin for another boat

[Phil]

only IXB
you will have to download another skin for another boat

is that under the downloads section marked skins cause all i see there is the one to make ur boat look like its been at sea and the one at this site http://www.users.on.net/~jscones/software/products.html says page cannot be found?

All Hail the Uberboot :rock::rock::rock::rock:
Someone should make a countdown clock till the mod comes out

Anyways about the skins, i know there are tons of posts about this. but im writing this one. Ok i downloaded Fubar's IXD2 skin and was wondering how to install it, do i use the mod enabler?

[bookworm_020]

I would love a twin gun 105mm on my forward deck. Maybe an upgrade to a 155mm duel would be nice. Would be nice to blow the destroyers apart.:arrgh!:

[alamwuhk2a]

Would you like to share how to make 2 deck guns to all of us? I am learning modding;)

Doomsday clock would be most appropriate.

[Mush Martin]

I am of course willing to share what info I can
however what is not commonly known at
the moment is that as I am an inexperienced
modder the Uberboot rig still has some
rough spots to get worked out. in short
first beta version is proof of concept.
to show how it fights ( really reaaly well)

in proof of concept we got it working
in beta testing we are trying to get it
to work right.

the first main deckgun that you are familiar
with is normal just as you have always known it
the second deckgun is currently mounted
on a secondary mount so it is limited
to the types of ammo that are avaialble
for a 37 mm and because it is on a secondary
type mount the aft deckgun has no human usable
sights , in practice the AI crew mans the aft gun
so the missing sights dont matter.
but there are associated issues
no available deck gun crew slots for
the extra gun and two unusable crew
slots for AA , as said previously we
are currently working up the hex editing
skills to recode the node from secondary
armament type to primary armament type.
and this will solve both the missing sight
and the crew slots.
like I said uberboot is ready to fight
today, but wont be ready to release
for a little while.

there should be a readme if not check the release
announcement thread when it was put out.

IMO i would like to steal a british quad 14" gun and but it on my boaty

[RawRecruit]

Those pics are awsome! Looks like some kind of submersible battleship! :rock:

[Mush Martin]

Not quite a BB its up armoured enough to match about a JC Butler
class with a little extra gun power
but can be tuned to equal a super destroyer or light cruiser
but about equal to a JC Butler is likely to be level at release.

Like I say I did mount twin AI 4" guns but I wasnt able to get them working
right.

A six inch Duel is what is currently simulated by increase in shell power
and a salvo capablity that mathces the shooting pattern of the twin
mount.

The reality was that the French Surcouf had two 8" (203mm) guns in a turret, the US 'V'-boats had two 6" (152mm) guns, some late-war US boats carried two 5" (127mm) guns. Other than that, you're cheating.

[Morts]

that sounds more like "sub-arty":rotfl:

[emtmedic005]

My dad is into US submarine actions inthe Pacific during the war and has some booksthat have pictures of subs with two deckguns.
Gato class.

I think when i played SH2, in the day, i had a sub that had two deck guns.
O yeah and what ever happened to the floating debris, that stuff was awesome in SH2.

[danurve]

Well, using SH3Commander it's also easy enough to edit your deck gun load times which is like cheating as well. With a deck gun fireing like a machine gun even an 88 could rip up some jazz. Btw; no I don't do this, but if someone wanted just to try it for fun, so what, it's just a game.

What I think would be neat is if the Kaleun could swap out the deck gun for a small platform and heavy flak. Although it might transform the beauty of a nice VIIB into something resembling a mother-in-law.

[emtmedic005]

I admit i do lower the reload time on my deck gun.:arrgh!: but o'well its a bloody game. haha, um about the MG42 double AA guns, i personally think they suck. anyway to increase their clip size so that its more then 5 rounds, i mean in real life MG42s were the best machine guns, besides the M2 .50cal. They should have longer clips like 140 rounds, anymore then that and i think the barrels would melt, awesome firepower.

Narwahl and nautilis had six inch singles (long ones) fore and aft of the conn

later Tench class boats had two five inch singles in the same locations.

I am! My keyboard is covered in drool!:yep:

[Mush Martin]

well get a towel Ill start a dev thread soon with fresh screenies.
its a shame but I have firmly rejected the Idea of adding
the Ubertorp boys and it wont be part of Uberboot mod.

ever since my assitant beeker was greivously injured while on the
Nova Scotia torpedo test range parking a frigate.

http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e368/MartinPicfix/SH3Img11-2-2007_23-2.jpg

The hospital in Nepal says that beeker is doing well and should be able to start learning to walk very soon.:rotfl::arrgh!:

...my assitant beeker...
Does this mean you're changing you're name to Professor Bunson Honeydew?

[Mush Martin]

Ill admit I like the bit and have thought about the namechange.

as for cheating yeah maybe but those that dont like the mod dont
have to play it or download it.:|\\

[Sailor Steve]

That's true too. I must admit that when I posted that I had somehow missed the first page, and though the thread was just asking about that sort of thing. I didn't realize you had already made the mod and stated that it was all for fun.

Sometimes Stupid Steve strikes again.:damn: :rotfl:
