Unified guns.* files

[SquareSteelBar]

Ahoy Kaleuns,

I tried to unify the different guns.* file versions matching to Gerôme's 'Graf Spee', the Russian DShK gun and Sergbuto's '(New)PT Units Mod' and 'Wolfpack Mod v2.0'.

After checking these files many hours in many test missions I think they work properly. PT boats and Type VII A Subs fire their virtual torps, the Russian machine guns appear ingame and stutter and also the big turrets on 'Graf Spee' appear and do their jobs.

There was only one issue during testing: sometimes I got CtDs in Serg's wolfpack single mission but this also happened with Serg's original guns.* files. When I replace the player controlled type IXB sub by an e.g. type VIIC sub the CtDs didn't happen anymore, so I think there's something wrong with my IXB sub.

These's files are considered as a bridging until Sergbuto will release a professional version because I don't know for certain that I did all properly. Maybe somebody would check this?

Give it a try. --> fixed issue with missing guns on merchants

Thks for the fix:up: . I had been holding off installing the russian ships and the Graf Spee among other new warships due to this issue.

[Jimbuna]

Great job...thanks :up:

[wojciech kucharski]

Square, TX, great job :up: :sunny:

[SquareSteelBar]

Please, no personality cult.http://users.pandora.be/eforum/emoticons4u/happy/046.gif

Now something serious:
a member of the german ubi forum realized that there're no guns on merchants anymore with these unified guns.* files. Can anybody confirm this?

So long,
SSB

Is there any chance of including the guns.dat from Serg's "Separate Gun Textures"?

[NiKuTa]

Is this files work with NYGM mod ???

[SquareSteelBar]

Is this files work with NYGM mod ??? Sorry - no -> because NYGM uses also modified guns.sim and guns.zon files, AFAIK.

SSB

[NiKuTa]

Can you do this for NYGM files too ?? Pls i dont know how.

Sorry Kaleuns,:oops:

the german mates are right: there's an issue with missing guns on many merchants with these guns.* files.
But I wasn't the Kaleun of U73 if I couldn't solve this prob http://users.pandora.be/eforum/emoticons4u/happy/046.gif.
So I've spent the night for getting it right, I hope finally...

I've updated all DLs in the first post. Maybe terrapin needs some time for updating.
The file name of the fixed version is 'unified_guns_v1.0.rar' [for those ones who want to dl from UBRS].

@terrapin:
would you please replace the faulty version by the new one? I've it just uploaded.THX:up:

BTW: I'm working on an update - integrated additionally Serg's 'SeparateGunTextures' into 'guns.dat'. Now I've to test it thoroughly for avoiding the next breakdown.:lol:

Many greetings,
SSB

Thx a lot. I'll wait :).

Hi NiKuTa & all mates ♀ + ♂,

it was much easier than I've expected - but you've to test these files yourself because I didn't use NYGM yet [same as GW]. I think there shouldn't occur any probs because only a few bytes had to be altered compared to the stock game version of 'unified guns v1.0'.

BTW I noticed that the 'guns.zon' file of NYGM is exactly identical with the stock game file - don't know why they included it, maybe accidently.

For DL have a look to the first post above - there's also a GW version available now.

Greetz,
SSB

[NiKuTa]

Tha a lot :) you are great :cool:

Is there any chance of including the guns.dat from Serg's "Separate Gun Textures"?
Hi mates,

I was working on an update of the 'Unified Guns': additionally included Sergbuto's 'SeparateGunTextures'. So now it's possible to use separate textures for the most turrets as well for the new big 280mm triple turret of the Graf Spee. For further informations you're referred to Serg's readme [included in this mod].

Again I tested the files many hours in many missions and they seem to work properly.

These's files are considered as a bridging until Sergbuto will release a professional version because I don't know for certain that I did it all the right way.

Many thanks to Sergbuto, rowi58 [fixed the Russion DShK gun], to the unknown Russian modder & all modders over the world.

DL you'll find in the first post above as well for GW and NYGM

Much appreciated.:up:

Hi terrapin,

would you, please, delete my uploaded mod unified_guns.rar because it doesn't work properly (therefore I did the update 'unified_guns_v1.0.rar' - don't delete this!). It has already been downloaded about 80 times and the amount increases daily. This leads to unnecessary cunfusions. Would you?

THX in advance
