TMT or Thomsen's Ships? or both?

[vergol]

From what I've gathered from their respective threads, TMT tweaks ship buoyancy values and mast-height values in the recognition manual, while Thomsen's Ships modifies ship buoyancy and inertia.

The two mods have a few conflicting files, but I've enabled both in JSGME and have kept it like that for a while now. I've also tried them individually. In all three cases I haven't noticed much difference in ship behavior. Perhaps I'm just not looking hard enough.

Could someone give me a more detailed explanation of how these mods affect gameplay and whether it's a good idea to use both at the same time?

Perhaps someone can recommend one or the other?

Thanks.

TMT2 states that it corrects some mast/draft values. Does this mean that if I don't use it, I won't get accurate ranges and depths on vanilla/GWX ships?

For my private use only, I made an "Thomsens Ships Addon for TMTv2", which is based on TMT v2, but adds the acceleration/deceleration relevant values to the TMTv2 files according to Thomsens recommendations. If makman allows it, I could upload that....but no further support. I'm tired.

i don't know about gwx ship's data but you can check gwx's data during your play. i didn't check all of them(so i can't speak for all of them) becuase i ,from the first moment,had decided to use the .sims from Rubini's b+d mod.
these .sims are 'putting' the ships deeper to water so one way or the other ALL ships's data needed to be adjust and thats the TMT(masts and lengths).for more info read its readme

makman94, you once replied in TMT thread that to use racerboy sh4 effects mod .. only copy texture folder frm it?
does this mean no copying of library folder & zone.cfg file? or just deleting sea folder .. which contains conflicting .sim files?

..sry for going off thread topic

yes, i don't remember now the files of Racerboy's mod but have in mind that any file that is conflicting with TMT's files will end to screw TMT
(I use in my personal install only some textures from Racerboy's mod)

okay, just one more question, if you dont mind..
since you have edited .sim files in sea folder .. can you tell me do they cross reference with other files or is it safe to delete them.. will SH4 effects mod cause issues if sea folder is deleted?
Well i tested SH4 mod + TMT v2 after deleting sea folder .. it seems to work at the moment.. but dont know for sure
