A good, balanced damage mod ?

[XXi]

The problem is... I`m not quite satisfied with the damage model of my U Boat. IN most cases I suffer hardly any damage, but when I get it it`s soon getting serious.
Plus, repair times are way too short, even in cases of severe damage it is a question of a couple of minutes, not hours. In addition - I get either no leaking or so severe flood that I need top fight desperately for live. Not much in the middle, to say so.


The question is: is there a mod, either released or work-in-progress that deals with repair times and makes the flooding and staff a little more balanced ? Less 0-1 conditions ?

Thank You

Try the Hollywood Advanced Damage mod.

I`ll check it... how about the repair time ?

The repair time has also been taken care of.

I consider the Holywood Advanced Damage Model an essential mod.

OK then, when I`m back home I`ll try it out.

Game changing mod....a must have

And where can a person such as myself obtain this said mod? :up:

[Heibges]

The Hollywood Damage Mod is probably my favorite mod.

Most of the other mods have no effect for me, because they are meant to force behavior that I already exhibit by using the tactical principles in the Uboat Commanders Handbook.

The Hollywood Damage Model really adds to the excitement of the game.

On every attack there is at least minor flooding in almost every compartment in the boat to deal with.

Raz,

This is the original RuB - IuB version by Gouldjg

http://rapidshare.de/files/7350596/Hollywood_Advanced_RUB_IUB_Version.rar.html

It's also available at www.u-boot.realsimulation.com under the general sh3 mods section.

I have also made a pesonalized version I tweaked (since I don't use either RuB or Iub); never published it before. I also put together a small readme:

Holywood Advanced Damage by Gouldjg
(Non RuB-IuB version, further tweaked by VonHelsching)

Differences with original Advanced Model

This version of Advanced Holywood Damage is for use with the stock game and Not with RuB or IuB, since it contains changes only for the uboat and discards changes in the damage model of ships. Also all aspect regarding crew management schemes were stripped out. Implemented some ideas elaborated in DieHard thread (a mod, which was never published), enhancing the near-death experience, plus giving you a *slight* possibility of:

-fighting back, even while heavy damaged
-limping back to port

I will not disclose anything more, In order not to spoil the spoilers...

---> Do NOT JSGME-it in the middle of the patrol. ONLY before loading a savegame before statring the mission; @ the office <-----


*** GOD Gouldjg, we are all waiting for you to return to us in June ***

Have Fun
