Hello!

I did a search on the sub-sim download site and the forums looking for some realistic damage mods or something like that (but purely Eye-candy mods ,like people flying off ,better damage textures and such,since i have NYGM Tonnage war 2.0 installed and anything that is not esthetic only will probably screw it up).
I have not really been succesfull.The only good thing i have found was a hollywood realistic damage pack ,but this also included changes to zonez.cfg and some other files that are essential for NYGM.
So,can anyone tell me where to find some purely eye-candy mods for more realistic damage that don't conflict NYGM or any other mods?I have also looked in the full mods list,but for some reason i can't acces the links there...
Cheers!

May be Teddy Bar can explain better for you... but i was using NYGM Ship Damage files without changing my Zones.cfg file.

If i am not wrong, zones.cfg is related to your own playable sub damage.

I hame my own made by some body i cant remember who, and i am happy with it.

Ask Teddy.....

Hmmm....well i thought that the zones.cfg was responsable for the ship "damage-zones".Thanks for the suggestion,i'm going to ask.

The ships, the planes and the u-boat damage is configured through the zones.cfg.

Making changes in the zones.cfg in the wrong places and the NYGM Ship Damage & Aircraft Damage Mod and/or the NYGM U-boat Mod will be wiped out.

However, changing the Effect1= or Effect2= etc will only change the special effects.

For example...
Effect1=#Fire_small, 40
Effect2=#Small_splinter_explosion, 100

At 40% damage a fire will occur and at 100% damage there will be a explosion.

If you changed Effect2=#Small_splinter_explosion, 100 to Effect2=Small_crewmans_splinter_explosion01, 100 then you would get men flying about when it is destroyed.

This has no side effects on any of the important settings. It can be a bit of a laugh seeing men flying out of an aircraft when it is destroyed :rotfl:

I hope this helps.

Oh,and thanks Teddy:)
I think that the H. Mod is included in NYGM but i am talking about a smaller pack not the whole one .
