[REL] Yamato playable (beta)

[tomhugill]

Hey folks , here for your surface ship playing pleasure is a fully functioning fully damage modeled (almost :|\\) playable version of the IJN Yamato.

First off I take no credit for getting her initially playable , I have mearly alltered the systems and given her a working damage model , with out further ado!

Damage screen all working :rock:

As this is a beta there are afew small niggles:

. I cant get the radar working for some reason , I 99% sure all the systems are there for it to work but for some reason it wont.
. When your engines get destroyed your top speed will decrease but you can still move
. Finally ive been having issues with flotation , Ive found that if you get much flooding you send to list more than I think you should. Anyone with expertise in this area and is willing to help let me know.

Anyway Have fun with her and please PM me or reply here with any feed back , ideas etc. Cheers Tom

Version 1.1!

Hey guys ive been doing alot of testing and with help for the guys here on the sub sim forums (esp. Mikyal) Ive managed to get a much more realistic flooding mechanic.

You sink much more slowly.
Flooding times have been increased and will affect you less than before (fixing the if you flood you sink issue)
Ive changed the zone file to flooding is only effected by the 3 compartments that you can see , engine room , lower decks and radio room. Hopefully this should give you a better idea of how badly your flooding.
The radar issue has now been fixed!

I have changed the way you take damage trying to make the ships eventual demise based on sinking rather than loss of hull hp , to this end i have made the hull hp very large and made the crush depth low, so once you sink you will die quickly

Planned changes:

Im hoping to add more compartments to the ship so an even better flooding representation can be achived , as well as more realistic systems and things such as damageable fuel tanks , and possibly magazines :rock:

Version 1.1 linky: http://files.filefront.com/Yamato11zip/;12203294;/fileinfo.html

Version 1.15!

Hey folks , new version out with a couple of tweaks:

Firstly ive made it so it should be RFB friendly (ish) Ive been playing and not had problems ... yet :p. I recomend you play with RFB actually as the improved visual and sounds effects really add to things.

Secondly ive rebalanced the compartment flooding , I was having a problem where if the radio room flooded at the rear you when down like a tonne of bricks. Hopefully this has fixed that so you will list abit but not go down to the degree of before. Now flooding in any one compartment wont sink you but any more and you could be in for prblems unless its fixed fast! :arrgh!:

v1.15 linky: http://files.filefront.com/Yamato115zip/;12219036;/fileinfo.html

Ps Ive been having alot of fun with this http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=137015 mission , I really really recomend you dl it! :rock:


NEW VERSION! :

1.2 , Updated with miners fantastic skin! Also included are some improved BB damaged models for ai (I think all the allied ones) Using higher Hp and lower armor for more spectacular and longer lasting bb fights

[TitaniumRR]

Very good idea! :up:

Thank you for your industrious, creative work! :sunny:

[Leo_93]

:up: Cool, Thanks for fixing the damage model I always liked this BB. Also it looks like this yamato has the accurate AA guns if I am not mistaken.

[ivank]

what mods do you use with it?

[The General]

Wow, this looks incredible! Is there a Campaign for this?

[tomhugill]

Shes german campagin ready , I use stock 1.5 with pe4 and rsm classic and all works smoothly. I have now managed to fix the radar bug and will upload a fix asap. Yep i used the ai yamato aa gun fix. Its amazing seeing them go off at night!

[ivank]

is the AA fix included?

[tomhugill]

Yep the AA fix is included , as awell as walters range fix

[The General]

Thanks, I've tried it and it's a lot of fun. Enemy destroyers are making a mistake trying to ram me now! :lol:

[Kruger]

I can't wait to slaughter a convoy using this huge momma.

How does it behave when installed over RFB, regarding the different damage mechanics implemented ?

[tomhugill]

As long as you install it last you should be fine , as the zones file i used is included. There was a bug with the playable pocket battleship where using rfb the crew disappeared so im not sure if the same will happen here

[Kruger]

Same bug unfortunately. It doesn't work over RFB. No crew, noone to shoot the turrets, the ship won;t move. It's a ghostly Yamato :)

[tomhugill]

It might work if u put all the crew avalible on , go on partrol , instantly end it and keep doing that. Also is there anyone experienced with sinking mechanics. Im still not happy that I cant get individual compartments to flood without having the ship sink. If you can help let me know.

[Kruger]

Ok, I will do it now.

Be careful with that one, it works, but if you do it too many times in a row without completing a mission or at least sink something they will retire you. Doesn't happen all the time but I have had it happen on the third "end Patrol" 4 times during some testing. (Not with the Yamato, but I assume the same could happen) Just some info.

So you might want to try to get some essential crew on board on the first and second times, then do a mission and finish the next time you dock.

Peabody

[Kruger]

I've done it 3 times in a row, and played the campaign. With a minimum ghost crew I managed to play and sink some American destroyers.

I miss the UZO, there is no compass :D:D, I just use the binoculars, but you have no idea about the bearing. All the enemy ships engage me from much further than my gunners do, It;s fun anyway :D:D, I rammed some destroyers like they were some dinghies.

[tomhugill]

Ill try and get a UZO on at some point , but atm the floatation issues are more pressing :damn: . Despite what i said before damage to engines does affect your speed. Ive not had any problem with any ships engaging me 1st (on a good day u should be able to shoot around 10km) Could be due to your skeleton crew? :hmm: Ninja edit The bino's should have your bearing on them ;)

[joe313]

Shes german campagin ready , I use stock 1.5 with pe4 and rsm classic and all works smoothly. I have now managed to fix the radar bug and will upload a fix asap. Yep i used the ai yamato aa gun fix. Its amazing seeing them go off at night!

when u will upload the radar fix ?

[ivank]

should I install it as follows:
PE4
PE4 NSM Classic
Yamato

[tomhugill]

A new version with working radar and (hopefully) improved flooding and sinking mechanics will be up sometime today:up: edit yeh thts how i run it , theres also a good Japanese crew name mod which i run.

[Sledgehammer427]

yeah, unfortunately any playable ships made are incompatible with RFB.

in all of my cold war sub mods, i would justload up the boat with all the crew there, save, and reload the game, and do it over...

not too much work for the result!

[tomhugill]

New version up! :arrgh!:

[The General]

Terrific, thanks! :up:

[The General]

I doesn't work for me. When I select it, it just loads the u-boat. :hmm:

[tomhugill]

Very odd , is there anyone else with this problem? Im going to be uploading yet another improved version in about an hour so hopefully that should solve it

[The General]

It's ok, I know what happened. I installed PE4 before Yamato, instead of the other way 'round.

[tomhugill]

New version up!

[mitchell300]

Sorry buy what is Pe4?
I downloaded the 1.5 beta from yamato playable..
Backuped data and trew the new 1 over the old that whas stil in SH4 map.
And now?
How can i play yamato?
Thanks.
Mitch ;)

[Sledgehammer427]

well, i would really suggest getting JSGME.

JSGME (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=123908)

it makes everything hassle-free, no need to backup, nothing, just throw it in your MODS folder, which it creates, and activate it, and go, if it dont work, unload it. done
easy pie, as a few of my friends say.

almost forgot, PE4 is an ENVIRONMENTAL modification by Kriller2 (props dude!) that makes many of the games environmental (sea, sky, land, i think) aspects more realistic. i highly suggest D/Ling it

Ademas, Sali con el Admiral Scheer... de Ese no Realice Capturas... pero Existen Muchas Diferencias como la Cantidad de Tiros... Eso si que el Admiral Scheer, Puede Realizar Disparos de Torpedos desde Popa... nada mal...

http://www.filthpics.com/files/3d8hixhz1p1xe7dl3unc.jpg (http://www.filthpics.com/)

http://www.filthpics.com/files/jn8hmjj1qc51rrlxol45.jpg (http://www.filthpics.com/)

Otro Convoy, Cuando me Alejo de la Costa... en Persecucion a un Grupo de Batalla...
Lastima por los Tanqueros... Eso si que estos Tipos estan Locos...
Disparan con todo lo que Tienen... Aun Asi, Terminan en las Profundidades...

http://www.filthpics.com/files/rt2g2x8dujwyqq9fyw2v.jpg (http://www.filthpics.com/)


Bueno... Aun no Termino la Patrulla... Espero Encontrarme con algun Grupo de Batalla...
Para, Ver que tanto Resiste...

Lo Malo:
1.- Para Realizar el Tiro Manual se Debe Calcular la Distancia del Blanco, por el Mapa de Ruta.
No Existe un Director de Tiro...
no asi como el SH III + GWX. Donde Existe un Director de Tiro,
para Calcular la Distancia y Asi Ajustar la Elevacion...
2.- Los Grupos de Batallas se Escapan... no Existe Señal de Socorro... para que Acudan a Prestar
Ayuda... como lo es en el SH III + GWX...
3.- Cuando Estas de Director de Tiro... se Nececitan Demasiadas Salvas para Centrar el Blanco...
Quizas sea que Tienen muy Pequeña Estructura...
4.- No Aprecias la Caida de Salvas en una Distancia Superior a 7 Km... Ya que los Prismaticos
son de 4x... No Tienes la Capacidad de ver los Telemetros...

Lo bueno:
1.- O sea, con el Calibre de las Salvas, Los Convoy Caen Como Moscas...
2.- Ademas, Vean la Cantidad de Salvas... 9000 Salvas... Solo en la Torre de Popa...
Creo que no es nada Real Esto... por lo Que Tengo Entendido, en las Santa Barbaras
se Disponian una Cantidad de Salvas de Alrededor de 1000... Dependiendo del calibre...
3.- La Artilleria Antiaerea es Contundente.... Ademas, por mi Corta Experiencia en este Simulador
no Van mas de Dos Aviones por Escuadron... asi que se pueden estar Tranquilo de los Ataques Aereos...
no le PAsara lo mismo que su Hermano Real...
4.- Cuando Estas de Director de Tiro y Señalas el Blanco... la Artilleria Completa del Buque se Hace Presente... Torres Proel, Popa... Primaria y Secundaria... Asi, como los Antiaeres de Grueso Calibes... Pero con Varias Salvas para Centrar el Blanco...

Estas son las Primeras Impresiones con el Mode... Esperare Terminar la Patrulla...

James...

[tomhugill]

are you using the generic mod installer?

[Sledgehammer427]

well, tom, you handiwork is amazing!

just finished a patrol in the yamato, (made a dark skin just cuz i can) and i raided Darwin harbor, and thank heavens i didnt have to load it up with men...:up:

looking forward to see what else you can do on the SWMT

[tomhugill]

Id love to see your alternate skin :P mail me it if thats ok :up: I got the rest of the TWSM ships tht are done now gonna be alot of modding :rock:

this skin and a skin with my trademark Gray-Gray-Black scheme are going to be up on my filefront momentarily. have at people!

EDIT: before you ask, i could not access the gun textures, or else they would be dark also.
speaking of which...

[Leo_93]

Very cool looking makes it look stealthier. I wonder if the game takes into account that darker colors are harder to see and brighter colors are easier to see during the night but I highly doubt that it does.

[Sledgehammer427]

nope, unles you can make her work at periscope depth...which would be an interesting sight...

[ivank]

loving your texture!

[spike12]

No crysantheme on the bow? Seeing as the old Yammie had one(2 metres across)attached to said bow.

[Sledgehammer427]

yes she did, i always was a little annoyed at that...if i knew where to put it, it would be there....
unfortunately, considering UBI's texturing gurus;)
a crysanthemum would show up where its supposed to be...and then somewhere halfway down the hull, then somewhere near the stern...ugh

[jaumem]

I think i've found a bug. My Yamato only sink up to 93 feet!:damn:

(sorry about my english XD)

[Fire_Spy]

Hey there,
These are the mods I am using at this time ;
NSM4 Classic, PE3,RFB and RSRDC_RFBv15.

Ive added the yamato last and it works fine.. for the most part. tends to crash a bit when I assume i am being sunk.

I ran into a rather large US taskforce and it was great, Shells flying everywhere.
1 US destroyer rammed me and was kind of sliding along the side of me when it just crashed to the desk top.

Alot of fun tho.. :D

[difool2]

Yeah the AI will need to be tweaked when those big surface mods go live. Right now the DDs think you are a submarine and attack you as if you were-thus the "ramming" attempts. You can even hear them pinging when they get close.

[ivank]

problems
NSM4 Classichere
PE3,RFB and RSRDC_RFBv15.there, there aand there

all of those mods are conflicting with each other....
RFB uses a better version of NSM, if you don't like how the mechanics work in RFB, its understandable, however, this will mess up how the other ships act in the game as far as collision mechanics go, it will also mess up the mechanics of the yamato herself.
RFB also has PE4 fully integrated. have fun!
the settings PE3 uses are different than the RFB "historical" settings. it has PE4 rigged for RFB so you dont lose historical accuracy, which i'm sure you want.

EDIT: ivank, it dont matter if you are a PT boat, sub, or a superbattleship, destroyers will attack you.
lets not forget the "tin can" attack on a battleline of nip cruisers and managed to sink or damage them all?
maybe have a shadowing option open so they stay out of your gunnery range? i love having Yamato's 18 inchers at my fingertips (evil laugh here)
but they are useless against a destroyer watching you outta range

[Fire_Spy]

Ahh I wasnt sure if it did or not.. I can fix that easily enough.. thanks!

[tomhugill]

New vresion with miners skin up now!

[gimpy117]

it almost doesn't seem fair...

[tomhugill]

To be honest , whilst slaughtering convoys looks pretty its not really how the Japanese used their bb in ww2 (the germans initially yes). It is fun to fight task forces , and if they include the newer bb (iowa , KGV etc) they will give you a serious run for your money. As its is entirly possible to take an unlucky hit to the engine room which will knock out all your engines and your fuel. I do take your point though, this was ntended as an excersise in making surface ships more playable. The next step (for the campgaign anway) is in manipulating the controlable units and making more realistic objectives for the BBs such as attacking task forces (with ai backup) and possibly support simulated landings and that kind of thing. There still some very good missions with this ships in mind , and a couple written for peabodys fuso which with the permisison of the author ill post that have been modded for the yamato. :up:

[Sledgehammer427]

hmmmm, i am writing an alternate-history book about the yamato going off on its own after 1942 (because there is no way we would suspect such a thing) and just go about blowing the s*** out of everything...it will still explode in the end...

[Sledgehammer427]

my skins (obviously) have a deck fix (mahogany, since ubi didnt put a crysanthemum on the yamato) i hope miners looks just as good!

[tomhugill]

If you could mail me a copy of yours ill be happy to include them :up:

[Sledgehammer427]

they are on my file front, but i have refined them a little, so, i will have them up tomorrow

[Admiral Von Gerlach]

It is remarkable to see this splendid ship in game, indeed the IJN doctrine for BB was fleet to fleet that was their hope all thru the war, but they never really got a chance to see that happen as they had eliminated the BB squadrons that they had planned and wargamed against for years at Pearl. And by the time there were significant Allied BB assets in the Pacific the IJN BB fleet was decimated and tactics had changed dramatically due to the carrier task force coming to the fore in naval to naval planning. The IJN even had some very strange hybrid conversions part carrier part BB. Remarkable times.

The final run of the Yamamoto was the IJN's final refusal to accept the deep change in the make up of successful surface combat, tho the BB lingered in the hearts of the Big Gun admirals even in the USN to see the New Jersey and Iowa return to service for one last curtain call, though partly altered to be missle platforms.

This and the other IJN BB's and the USN Iowa and I think i saw a Repulse but it may be for 1.4 and unplayable....there is hope still for some heavies to get into it. Is there a KGV? I saw that mentioned, i suppose that is in the game, but not playable ....

anyway, this is very wonderful to see, a magnificent ship indeed.

[tomhugill]

There is a kgv but the damage models nto been done 100% yet , if u want ill email you

[Admiral Von Gerlach]

Please i PM you my e mail with many many thanks :) KGV fine ship would be great to have.

[Rene]

how do i add the japanese flag to the ship? i think it makes the ship more realistic.
or what about the sign on the bow of the yamato does anyone have an idea to put it on?
Or does anyone know a mod that has such a skin for the yamato?

[polyfiller]

Tom - great work, downloaded this and am enjoying using it. I have also downloaded many of the other playable surface ship mods. I have extensive modding experience with Freelancer, and am trying to learn how to contribute to SH mods. I've been looking at how you got the damage models working (which I have to say works really well compared to the other BB's I've downloaded).

From what I can figure, you added some custom zones in zones.cfg ? And the index number of these zones is assigned to boxes in yamato.zon ? For example Box 50 is type 113 which is KeelBB ?
What I'm trying to work out is how these match up to entries in yamato.dat (or dop they ?). I'm guessing the only way to match things up is to extract the 3d model into a 3d tool ?

I'm either looking in the wrong places, or there is much less online information about how to get into the more detailed modding of SH than Freelancer. I'd love to be able to take some of the 3D work people do and finish it off in the way you have done so well. Any chance of any pointers as to how you've done it ??

Before you reply I'll point out my 3D skills are awfull (limited to creating cutom .SUR files for freelancer ships, roughly drawn around the 3D shape of the ship ... essentially just providing a collision object which matches the shape of ships). I've also had some success in touching up FL textures (speciality was creating illuminated textures). I really want to contribute but am struggling to learn.... any answers / help greatfully received :)

[Sledgehammer427]

@ Rene,
i have made a pair of skins for the yamato, as you can probably see, but unfortunately i cannot find where to place the Crysanthemum on the lightmap

[tomhugill]

The crysanthnum cant be put on as the piece that is uses is use in several place apparently. The dat file doesnt really have anything to do with damage modeling , what you need is in the .upc or .upcger file , each damage box corisponds to a system added there. For example a bulk head id 198 in the upc file corisponds so the damage box with the same id in the zone file. The real trick with damage models is balancing the sinking aspect to be realistic and also balance how each system takes damage.
For the yamato I spent days sitting on a custom mission taking damage from 3 bbs observing till i sunk , then adjusting values till they felt right. At the moment I have a KGV with a working damage model which hasnt been balanced yet :up:

Version 1.1!

Hey guys ive been doing alot of testing and with help for the guys here on the sub sim forums (esp. Mikyal) Ive managed to get a much more realistic flooding mechanic.

You sink much more slowly.
Flooding times have been increased and will affect you less than before (fixing the if you flood you sink issue)
Ive changed the zone file to flooding is only effected by the 3 compartments that you can see , engine room , lower decks and radio room. Hopefully this should give you a better idea of how badly your flooding.
The radar issue has now been fixed!

I have changed the way you take damage trying to make the ships eventual demise based on sinking rather than loss of hull hp , to this end i have made the hull hp very large and made the crush depth low, so once you sink you will die quickly

Planned changes:

Im hoping to add more compartments to the ship so an even better flooding representation can be achived , as well as more realistic systems and things such as damageable fuel tanks , and possibly magazines :rock:

Version 1.1 linky: http://files.filefront.com/Yamato11zip/;12203294;/fileinfo.html

Version 1.15!

Hey folks , new version out with a couple of tweaks:

Firstly ive made it so it should be RFB friendly (ish) Ive been playing and not had problems ... yet :p. I recomend you play with RFB actually as the improved visual and sounds effects really add to things.

Secondly ive rebalanced the compartment flooding , I was having a problem where if the radio room flooded at the rear you when down like a tonne of bricks. Hopefully this has fixed that so you will list abit but not go down to the degree of before. Now flooding in any one compartment wont sink you but any more and you could be in for prblems unless its fixed fast! :arrgh!:

v1.15 linky: http://files.filefront.com/Yamato115zip/;12219036;/fileinfo.html

Ps Ive been having alot of fun with this http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=137015 mission , I really really recomend you dl it! :rock:


NEW VERSION! :

1.2 , Updated with miners fantastic skin! Also included are some improved BB damaged models for ai (I think all the allied ones) Using higher Hp and lower armor for more spectacular and longer lasting bb fights

Somebody FIX a UZO Please!!!!

[Alex_SoboL]

OK. How I can add UZO on this ship myself?

[tomhugill]

Ill have to get Peabody to show me how as hes added one for the iowa

[Alex_SoboL]

Ok! A have one more question, how add this ship in Operation Monsun mod?

[DarkFish]

OK. How I can add UZO on this ship myself?You can do this by adding something like this to the ships upc file (Data\Submarine\Subname\Subname.upc):[UnitPart 1.Compartment 1.EquipmentSlot 7]
ID= DeckInstruments
NameDisplayable= Deck Attack Station
Type=NULL
AcceptedTypes= NULL
UserCustomizable=No
IDLinkEquipmentIntervalDefault1= NULL, NULL, TBT
ExternalNodeName3D= O04
ExternalDamageZoneTypeID3D= -1
Now for your next question:
Ok! A have one more question, how add this ship in Operation Monsun mod?In UPCData\UPCCampaignData\Flotillas.upc you'll find something like
[Flotilla 1.UserPlayerUnitType 1]
ID= F1Porpoise
NameDisplayable= Porpoise class
AvailabilityInterval= NULL, 1944-11-11
IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= Porpoise
UnitTypeCommonality= 4 ; to be used when a random choice is assigned
IDFlotillaLinkTransferTo= NULL ; when the flotilla is disbanded, the subs of this type are transferred to this one. If NULL then submarine assigned to training -> desk job or reassignment
now if you want to change this submarine class to for example Balao, replace this with:[Flotilla 1.UserPlayerUnitType 1]
ID= F1Porpoise ;I suggest you leave it this way, if you change it you'll have to change hundreds of other entries too.
NameDisplayable= Balao class ;Doesn't have to be changed, the new ship will load successfully if you leave this.
AvailabilityInterval= NULL, 1944-11-11 ;When this ship is available. Change if you only want to enable it for a certain time period.
IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= Balao ;must be the same as the ships ID in the ships upc file, look for ID=Balao under [UserPlayerUnit 1].
UnitTypeCommonality= 4 ; to be used when a random choice is assigned
IDFlotillaLinkTransferTo= NULL ; when the flotilla is disbanded, the subs of this type are transferred to this one. If NULL then submarine assigned to training -> desk job or reassignmentIt works the same for OM and the yamato, only look under UPCDataGE for the Flotillas.upc file.
Alternatively you can just wait for TSWSM (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=144946) to come out.;)

[tomhugill]

Shameless plug ftw!

Use program Generic Mod Enabler(JSGME) http://www.users.on.net/~jscones/software/products/jsgme_setup.exe. Download and install jsgme. In game directory you will find MODS folder. Download and unpack this ship in MODS folder, then run jsgme.exe you should see the “yamato”. Activate mod by pressing ">" button. Run the game and in the single mission or career choose Yamato.

Anyone have any idea's as to why my Radar will work on a quick mission, but It will not work in Campaign?

[tomhugill]

You have mail sir! For anyone else you just need to upgrade to the next radar up , cant quit eremember fug 16 or something and tht should sort it

[ElephantMemory]

PM sent about that other ship. Also, is there a way to get a fire to go out once it starts burning? Seems like once a ship is on fire its like that till the end of time.

[Marauder7]

Hiya! The yamato looks great and the main guns are awesome but I was wondering about all the port/starboard weapons. Are they all AA? I'm asking because none of them would fire on ships in the one mission I've done so far and there were no aircraft. It made for very slow firing and I had a hell of a time tracking destroyers circling around me. I've played the Bismark and that ship can throw a ton of lead. The side guns will take out destroyers before I can even train the main gun on them! I love the yamato and her 18's but it doen't seem to match up to the Bismark in terms of rate of fire and amount of fire it can throw into a broadside.

PS anybody ever try putting the cannon info from the yamato 18's onto the bismark? I would really like to see what the bismark would be like with 18 inch guns :)

[jmardlin]

Open the sim for the playable bismark main gun and paste this value into the node for the gun under ammo storage AP 0x184e4d13c98196cc. The gun will then be firing AP round for the yamato

[Marauder7]

Woohoo! Thanks alot! Time for some major commerce raiding :)

[Marauder7]

Hi all. Been having a blast trying out all the excellent BS mods but I have one very big problem. I can't repair any damage and my hull integrity gauge is always 000. This happens with all the mods I've tried, Graff Spee, Bismark, Yamato and Iowa so far.

Any ideas on what may be going on? I'm running SH4 with the uboat expansion v1.5

I also remove any mod before I try another one with JSGME to avoid any conflicts.

Thanks for the help :D

[tomhugill]

With the yamato its an intended feature , you can die but only if you sink. Which will happen if you flood too much. I felt that hit points you couldnt repair where a poor way of damage modeling as a ship will continue to fight untill it sinks or its guns are destoryed , not when it run out of hp!

[jmardlin]

Graf spree is probably the zon file but the others the armor levels are high enough that only a battleship can cause any real damage other than a torpedo. the zon files are not set up with fleet boat zones in most cases.

[polyfiller]

Tom - agree high hp value gives a chance for the dammage caused to zones to be reflected. What I'm trying to work out now is a suitable hp value such that when your zones take a hammering - you would see between 30 and 40% damage agains the main hull .... to avoid questions / queries like the one above and also to make the whole damage experience consistent.

All others .... patience ... the damage modelling for the TSWSM is coming along nicely, lot's of damagageable / repairable equipment, damage zones which your cause ship to sink slowly and in many different ways. Also different layout of zones for differnet ships and to match a ships topology better than the standard U-boat type zone names. Only trouble is it's very time consuming. I reckon it's around 40 hours to damage model one playable ship.

[SilentAngel]

hmmm seem to be having a problem with a lazy ai crew, they wont fire there damn guns:P

I installed it after the latest real environment mod.

[Regio Sommergibile]

Great addition! i'm gonna try it now!:up:

i've dl'd this mod but not used so how is it?

[tomhugill]

Load up sh4 and try? :timeout:

[Regio Sommergibile]

Great the Yamato is awsome... BIG cannons and tons of AA. In some ways she's poorly armed. There are no middle guns for "rapid" fire; only supercannons :D

Btw in some missions you start underwater or sinking. "normal"

[tomhugill]

Theyre missions for subs where you start submerged , adjust the starting parameters in the mission editor and your sorted

Is the ammunition for each turret separate? If so then it might be the case that you're running out of ammo. I get the feeling that if you sustain a hit, and the ammunition store explodes (without destroying your ship), you lose some of the ammunition for the gun that whose ammo was destroyed.

[Alex_SoboL]

I don’t know separate ammunition or not. This problem even appear then when damages by reciprocal fire were not.

[Sophont]

I only asked because I tried that mod out, and each gun slowly stopped firing. By the time I'd come out of Fremantle harbour >.> I only had two turrets working out of the five. After I went to the mid-ocean refit tanker, and got refitted, the problem disappeared.

I am new at this forum, but i'm so impressed by some gentlemen who share their emotion, knowledge, passion, time, skillfulness but only between a few members. If somebody is new, can't ask for help because you simply will ignore him. THAT "RULE" SHOULD BE IN YOUR SECTION "FAQ & RULES". It's so necesary use the filefront web? Another webs are better, but at filefront, the hard job of many talented modders is lost too soon. Since Atari-2600 "share" was always the rule.

Your first post you asked for a file that was not available on filefront and then you found it, no more problem, this is your second post and you complain people don't help?

A lot of members are in areas that this is summer and they go on vacations and spend time with their families since the children are not in school, so a lot of members are not available to answer the questions.

Also you will see a lot of "new" members will post in a thread from over a year ago and want to know why the file isn't available and wait 1 day and complain they didn't get an answer. This thread you are posting in now started almost a year ago in 2008, a lot of members have stopped reading it.

So I don't know where you are getting the 'new' members don't get any help. Who? What was the question? Where are all these 'new' members you are talking about?

No it doesn't. It's a playable unit for the German side, therefor requiring 1.5.

Tnx

Hi there , I no longr have the original files , theres not much difference between 1.15 and 1.2 you just really need miners skin

Hello,guys.

I have a problem,i've downloaded yamato 1.15 and used it with JSGME ,everything is fine just my flaks and radar wont work.You've mentioned that there is fix but i can't find it.Please help,Thanks!

[keltos01]

Sesuna where are youuuuuu ? :har:

[sona1111]

*edit*

oops sorry...page error

[bertle]

I know it's not that important but someone must have downloaded 1.2 so can't they just send it back to the OP or upload it themselves? This is the internet it's not like anything stays lost forever

[tomhugill]

If you have the real environment mod , there is a section in there with warships retextured. The skin i used for the yamato is in that. You just need to copy it into the texture folder of the mod and your ready to go

[sona1111]

I have to say, very good work on this, best damage model ever.

[tomhugill]

If you thing the yamato damage models good , just wait till you see the work thats being done with the TSWSM, it may blow your mind! :salute:

[sona1111]

yeah, i was looking at that.

I played a lot more with it and im slightly, SLIGHTLY less impressed.

While most of above deck systems work pretty good, theirs still that problem where, when enough damage is taken, EVERYTHING dies at the same time. The engines, Guns, and bulkheads all die and the flooding starts with seemingly no way to stop it. Also, throughout all battles the pumps and compressor go offline and online many times in a row, and its annoying to keep hearing the same message over and over again. Sometimes i can get flooding to start before everything dies, but it only ever works in the radio room, so i list straight backwards. the list side to side mentioned earlier in the thread never seems to happen. The "holes" that you see when hit by a large caliber gun seems to be limited to 4 Max then no more spawn. How can i fix this? None of the large or small guns besides the flaks ever "die". It would be nice if the broken ones were replaced with a "damaged" model, or, if thats too hard, just remove them. (they got blown off) Finally, If the fires that start when your hit would go out after about an hour or so of game time, that would be cool, its very unrealistic how they burn forever.

P.S. theirs also a weird bug that happens sometimes, i cant figure out what triggers it but it seems to have something to do with being damaged. When it occurs the entire yamato just vanishes and stops and you can still control the engines and "man" the deck gun but the controls dont actually do anything after you activate them. Its weird.

[tomhugill]

1. If the room gets destroyed everything in it gets destroyed simulating a critial hit!
2. I tried to adjust the repair rate , can be done in sh3 but havnt worked it out in sh4.
3.The holes are a engine limitation
4. You cant replace with damaged guns. Also in real life they wouldnt really change much, most of the damage is internal
5. engine limitation
6. ive also had this problem but only after youve sunk enough to drag along the shallow bottom for along time under time compression.

The TSWSM damage model polyfillers mainly responsible for does work as a more refined vresion of mine. Poly has made damage of equiptment more realistic and now deck guns can be damaged and repaired there are more flooding comartments so flooding is more realistic etc.

Please Reply ASAP! :salute:

I downloaded v1.15 of the Yamato.

This mod is only compatible with 1.5 as it uses the German career.

[Karle94]

Ill search Youtube for a Yamato mod that works with my version. :up:

Too bad your Yamato isn't made for my version of the game.:nope:

I'd like it if you tried to make it compatible.:sunny:

If you could make it in the US Career. :03:

Everything for me would be fine. :D

I would strongly reccomend that you get U-boat missions as it allows you to use most mods out there without having to make or get someone to make a dedicated mod for a specific version. It saves much time and effort, believe me.

[Karle94]

Would any mod be compatible with Upgrade 1.5 that was made in 1.5 or less?:06:

If so, can you give me the download links of the updates because i have SH4 Stock unpached.:arrgh!:

Now since I have Notepad++ I can now edit the UPC Files to add the Yamato into the game without disturbing my NSS Blackwolf and NSS Red October mods that I have in place currently. Also I plan on inputting the NSS Titan Superfortress and the NSS Shark in my game if the answer is yes.

Please Answer ASAP!

Best Regards,
nukeboat0506

The Yamato uses the German side wich is only in 1.5. I don`t know what happens when you use a 1.5 mod when playing 1.4 or lower. This issue is something you have get outside opinion on. Axis playable ships normally doesn`t interfere with Allied ships.

like i said: a what-if, the Yamato blueprints were copied and smuggled by an american spy, then they built one in San Fransisco, and used it in the war :yeah:
kinda hypothetical?
Feasible?
any feed-back is welcome!

Yes.

Been a long time since I've poked my head out into a Surface Ship mod.
Only Question I have is how's the Ai's accuracy at Longer Ranges? I'm talking out to 13 thousand plus. I remeber that being my one Sticking point with the Iowa,where the AI couldnt hit the broadside of a Battleship at anything longer that 8 Thousand.

Howdy,

How can I make the Yamato be on the American side?

[Midgar16]

I installed it with JSGME but the ship wont show up.
how can i fix this?

Maybe you don't have SH 4 v1.5 with U-boat Mission??? :hmmm::hmmm::hmmm:

I love this ship, but when my Radio Room floods, the back end still goes underwater. I wish you would make an easier mission, because I just wanted to putter around. Works great, thoughQ!
