I havent posted in awhile as i havent had much to say and RL being busy aswell has IL-2 1946 & Company of Heroes Tales of Valor sneaking its way into my playlist recently but its been a question ive meaning to ask for awhile.

Is there a special technique used to measure a Keel to hull in order to set your torps up to try and achieve a "Keel Shot". I see a few guides saying about 1.3m above the keel in order for the ratio (Gyro & Depth keeping problems) to be good for a Keel Shot so some idea on how to measure the keel would be great.

Thnaks in advanced :)

You have a torpedo depth gauge. After the ship is ID'ed, look at the keel depth of the ship in the ID specs and set your torp to run about foot under it. Beware, the M14's run deep until about 43, so it's easy for them to run under, best to play it safe and shoot about mid range until torps are fixed.

Atm i use Trig Maru Overhaul mod.

Just look OM up in the Download section and it looks awesome, Didnt have any knowledge about this mod. Does anyone know if this can run side by side with TMO if not i'll just have to use JGSME Tool....
