View Full Version : [REL] Torpedo Loadout Editor 1.0.1 (Updated)
Hi all,
As you may all know, it's not possible to change torpedo loadouts in single missions. Since sh3 i wanted a tool to make it possible without messing with config files, and 5 days ago i thougth "Heck, I can do that", so here's the first release. It may still have bugs, though it's stable on my system, but there are lots of different setups, and i can't predict what could happen.
Here's a screen of the app:

And ingame:

Check the info button to get info on torpedoes and basic usage.
Oh and i designed it to be as dynamic as possible. So if a new sub is added, config file changed or whatever, it will adapt to it.
And one more thing, from past experience i had, these packed php/winbinder apps can cause false positives on some antivirus apps, so if your antivir starts screaming on installer or main exe please ignore it, i can assure you that this is completely clean.

walmis your thread is dead:down: :down: :down:
sorry, there seems to be a problem with my host.
Here, try this link:
http://mpgtext.net/subshare/1Sh4TorpedoLoadoutEditor1.0.0.exe
Cant install as my Virus Protection says the exe is infected with a trojan and deletes it automatically

That could be a False Positive due to the compiler he is using...only guessing but seen that before.
ok, ill disable my vp and try again
anyone know what files this program changes.. I remeber a similar app for SH3, but cant emember where the torp loadout are kept..
I want to know so i can back up my original and keep a spare of any edited bersion i am happy with..
yeah, that's a false positive, tried scanning it on an online virus scan, and it reported a trojan.
It edits /data/submarine/NSS_*/NSS_*.upc and when it saves, it makes an original backup to NSS_*.upc.bak and notifies you when it does that.

how is it that you can use torpedos from 1946 to 1962
ww2 only went until 1945
These numbers are not mine :)
They are read from balao config file

but this is a ww2 sim
Yes, but balao's service time is from 1943 to 1963, this is defined in the config file.
If this bothers you so much, open up NSS_Balao.upc and change the line UnitInterval= 1943-02-04, 1963-07-11 to
UnitInterval= 1943-02-04, 1945-02-04 :)

There where a couple of balaos serving in the argentine navy till mid 70's. :D

New in 1.1: Fixed some graphics anomalies and optimized torpedo drawing. Should work much faster now.

I'm using Microsoft Windows Live One Care. I disabled the anti virus portion and sucessfully loaded Torpedo Loadout Editor 1.0.1. Problem is when I re enable virus protection I can't load the program because of the suspected trojan and when I reboot the antivirus program detects a trojan in the program. Any ideas how to get around this?
Thanks

This thing is annoying, maybe try adding it as a trusted app if your antivir allows that?
good job - will try it out soon
thanks

:p Lots of people have probably already tried this but has anyone noticed that along with this suberb program if you edit the upc files to do with weapons you can have all types of torp from day one of the war (a bit of a cheat i know but i think cool non the less):hmm:
This also applies to sub upgrades Etc
Same problem with BitDefender 10 !
Make to disconnect protection Anti Virus.
Once made, good program !

:huh: Why ask why ?
because "i wont use it even if I am assured they are clean..." sounds kinda strange.

Well, after all I do not know you, or anyone else on this board ;) No offense is intended. It is also a policy, both where I work and at home, and a general best practice for ANY computer user.
Honestly, the folks who make the compiler/interpeter (which I am not familiar with) should work with the AV industry to make it ID friendlier. You can't start making exceptions to AV policy and expect it to mean anything.
It really does look like a cool mod - I was serious when I said it was unfortunate...

Any way this would work for campaigns? I edited a lot of my own SH3 files to have more fun with the game, but I noticed nothing I did in that game works for SH4,so I have to resort to mods like yours. It looks great, but I really want to be able to use it in campaigns.

Same here, NOD32 do not report any bad thing...
Many many thanks for the program it is just wonderful.... :up::up::up:

It kinda works, when you start a campaign you get a default loadout (loaded by this program for example), but when you finish the patrol, i think, you will need to load with the campaign's loading tool.
:yep: Hi guys ,Bit of a late post this but i have used this editor in the campaign and have had no probs but that could be because of the playing around that i mentioned in an earlier post ,when i finish a patrol i can load whatever torpedo i like regardless of when ordinarily available .so would you class that as a mod or an addon.:hmm:
I'm sorry but I dont understand what this program does and how do you install it??..:oops:

It allows you to change your torpedo loadouts. Installation is simple as running the installer and running the program.
I have SHIV on a different drive then C and it wont work...:( Any fix for this problem??
Couldn't this mod have worked using JSGME instead of an exe? I was going to install it but not sure of what/where everything is being placed. Looks like a great mod but I'm holding off for a bit on installing it. It needs a readme so one knows exactly what's going on. ;)

If you're talking about the Mark 16, it was developed during the war but didn't see service until after the war. One of the German torpedoes in SH3 is similiar in this regard, except in that case none were used after the war. ;)
Is it possible to force a specific loadout on a player ship?
Would be an interesting feature for a campaign. The usual thing that happened with the supply/troop missions we get in RL is that the sub would have no torpedos other than what she had int he tubes to make room, for example.
No one has any ideas for me??? SHIV on different drive then C and wont work...
Could you explain exactly what's happening when you try to use this program? Like what errors?

Could you give a couple of example's on what to edit please...:)
I know I'm stupid but I didnt think I was dumb also!!! I still dont see what this does.I driveing a Gato in 1944 and the program wont change anything....:damn:
It works only when you start a single mission or a campaign, doesn't work when you are in the middle of campaign. In order to change torpedoes, you click and drag from the "Available" column to a slot on the sub, after you done, hit save.

I've had a similar problem ,though I have been using the program for a few weeks now..
,Was only last night when I let me anti virus suite do a scan that it came up with a trojan alert as follows :-
original file name =loadouteditor.exe
size of file =632320
virus descriptiuon= Win32:Agent-LGN {Trj}
Has anyone else had problems with this program ??????

Sorry bout me noobing around like this, i have red the post and am tempted to download this mod, but help me out there. Does this mod provide you with the option to load torpedoe's anytime anywhere, as to in unlimited torpedoes?

Loaded the system but it appears that when launching the changed torpedoes in the game, they launch but there is NO detonation. What is the problem? This occurs even at short range.

Hello
can this tool add some extra torpedoes, or just can change its type? If not is there some tool to do that (to add extra torpedoes baggage).
thanks

Is anyone having problem with loading this to make the different torpedo loads in Windows 7? Tried the compatibility mode and after it indicates it has saved the changes and when going back into the Single Missions, the torpedoes for the Gato, regardless of year, don't change. Will work with this some more, but if anyone has a fix as to whether I should uninstall and then re-install, let me know and more specifics on how and where to load the program. Thanks.
