[TEC] Shells.dat + Shells.zon Node Numbers in 1.5

[jimbob]

Ahoy Skippers und Kapitäns!

Now version at 1.1.

- found some typos (copypasta).
- added info about US and GE submarine guns ammos.
- I have had this updated version for some time but didn't update it until today, 18.march.08

"Inspired" by the post in second page of the Progress on TM and SH4 ver 1.5 (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=132159&page=2) thread:

Basicallye i dont feel like redoing every shell adjustment (hard to without a bloody label on them, i have to open up the dat, look at the node names, and then hunt for the child in the sim file , not fun.)
Use the new Find option in v0.6. Next to plain text, it accepts id's in hex format, so basically copy the shell id to clipboard, and paste it in the Find dialog (with the sim file open). The Find function searches both in id and parent id fields for the value you entered. Still tedious, but not as much as before :up:

Thought I'll give it a go.
Ctrl+F in 3ditor helps a lot. :D
Lotsa copypasta.

So first I booted S3ditor and made ShellsDat.txt file with a list of Nodes + Shellsize + Id from the Shells.dat file
looks like this:



Node: Shell: Id:

2 105mm_HE 0x6843a9abc98196cc

6 105mm_AP 0xa2802057c98196cc

10 105mm_AA 0xf7cf3679c98196cc

12 16Inch_HE 0xae2b0cf1c98196cc

etc...




Then I created ShellsZon.txt file, booted S3ditor and
Shells.zon file nodes and copyed the ParentId number to clipboard
and then searched my ShellsDat.txt for a match.

Pay attention to Node number in left, add 1 to it and you got yourself
the Nodenumber to tweak the AmmoDamageInfo.

Also, I added the corresponding Node Number Shells.dat in the end,
note how the numbering goes backwards. :doh:

You could just copy the code and save it as a textfile if you need this data:


SH4 v.1.5

v.1.1.

- found some typos (copypasta)
- added info about US and GE submarine guns ammos.

This data found with Silent-3ditor-beta06 in Shells.zon:
Also, I added the corresponding Node Number that Shells.dat has, in the end,
note how the numbering goes backwards. :doh:

"a Big Thanks" for skwasjer for the editor, it kicks butt all the time!


This data is vital for modders so
feel free to use this data anyway you like.

I dont mind about some credits tho,
but its not mandatory.
:P

Connecting gun to ammo:



Connecting gun to ammo:
For example 20mm_Oerlikon_Single.sim, what node number it uses in shells.zon?

- Open the file in S3D, navigate to node 7 (properties)
- + ammo_storage
- Click the AA and "shell=420804335894781292"
- In property details we got Id:
0x3a65f923c98196cc

- which I then searched in this file to find the node number.

...there probably coulda been easier way,
but at the same time I did some listing of Id's etc,
could come handy later on.

Wow, a two year old thread? Your on a crusade. :har: I have the distinct impression you recently surfaced at close range to a merchant with the intent to pummel him with impunity via Deck gun fire, and instead ended up shouting colorful vindictive induced the spanking recieved. :O:

Wow, a two year old thread? Your on a crusade. :har: I have the distinct impression you recently surfaced at close range to a merchant with the intent to pummel him with impunity via Deck gun fire, and instead ended up shouting colorful vindictive induced the spanking recieved. :O:

I had put a torpedo into a small freighter and surfaced at what I believed was a safe distance to finish him off (and save a torpedo since he was less than 1800 tons and barely able to make headway) after my initial attack. Why waste a torpedo, right? Any sensible merchant captain would have abandoned ship and watched the inevitable from the safety of a life boat.

Well, I received 76% hull damage at a range of well over 600 yards before he went down! :x

You are right about the string of expletives that issued forth! But that was as nothing compared to...

Later in the patrol, when I had to dive quickly to avoid aircraft who were on a course to practically fly right over my conning tower.. I reacted immediately by ordering we dive to a safe depth of 200 feet, Then, I leisurely left the room for just a moment- secure in the knowledge that I had time to evade detection and all was well... I returned in time to hear the harried shouts from my crew mixed in with breaking glass and the sounds of stressed metal giving way... my weakened hull had given in like an egg shell.

It was too late, over in an instant and nothing I could do... it was a horrible way to go. The closing images still haunt me. :rotfl2:

An excerpt; Billfish (SS-286) commanded by Edward Beach:

DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY -- NAVAL HISTORICAL CENTER

The submarine departed San Francisco Bay on 12 March and proceeded to Pearl Harbor. Following refresher training in Hawaiian waters, she sailed for the western Pacific and proceeded via the Marianas to the East China Sea to provide lifeguard service for Army Air Force B-29 bombers during raids on Honshu. Late in the month, she shifted to the Tsushima Strait area where, on 26 May, one of her torpedoes sank the 991-ton freighter Kotobuki Maru No. 7. Following an unsuccessful torpedo attack upon a small coastal cargo ship two days later, Billfish scored again when two of her torpedoes sank the 2,220-ton freighter Taiu Maru on 4 June in the Yellow Sea about a mile off the Korean coast. A short time later, she surfaced and destroyed three coastal steamers by gunfire. During the action, rifle fire from the third and last schooner killed Quartermaster 1st Class Robert V. Oliver and wounded another Billfish crewman. At noon on the 5th, the submarine launched a salvo of four torpedoes at a medium-sized freighter; but the target's simultaneous, radical course change caused all to miss. As Billfish left her patrol area, a Japanese plane dove out of the sun and dropped two well-aimed depth bombs that burst close aboard, violently shaking the submarine without doing her any serious harm. She arrived safely at Midway on 17 June for refitting.

There was some hassle with filefront some months ago, they almost quit,
thought I've fixed that link on my sig but it didn't work for a while.

Now it should work.
