I guess people missed my previous post in this thread. I already corrected the mistake and uploaded again a few days ago! :yep:

Is there a cameras.dat tool yet? The one for SH3 doesn't work on SH4 and I'd love to adjust the height of the camera a bit.

DTB posted a camera.dat somewhere recently with a free cam ceiling of 2000? ft and lets you get close to objects. I snagged it and am happily using it, let me know if you can't find the link.

I REALLY want a tweak file for camera.dat. I find it super annoying to have to immediately do shift arrow after the < > key views - the starting view is so far back you cant even see the ships at night, at day too far for details. I also dislike the restriction on how close you can get.

Okay a question about the torpdeo tweaks: What do the values for "impulse" and "straight_run" mean?

Yes... and sorry :up:, there are many mods and files, i loss the line of some of them when attempt to use. I am become ederly ! :rotfl:

Impulse is related to the "shake" the explosion cause in nearest objects. Not related to its power or damage capability.

Oooh! I have to get that. I tweaked it myself for SH3 using TT's tool, but if someone else has done it for SH4 that's great! I'll look for that right away.

[edit] I got it, but it slows my framerate down to a crawl and the camera actually goes through the seabed and the ground. I think there's something wrong with it - could it be that it's just the old RUb cameras.dat file? If so, that would explain it, as the SH4 cameras.dat file is quite different.

I guess we could ask ;) I never payed the RuB mod, but this behaves like the SH4 camera with distances etc. However, you would think a binary tweak would result in near identical file sizes and it is smaller than stock SH4... Stock 41,620 bytes, DTB 40,763. Weird. The SH3 camera was significantly smaller at 32k.

I got a little framrate hit, but the numbers are almost rock solid instead of jumping around, so I kinda like it. I am getting ~25 with everything high on a 7600 GT.

This mod want work on any torpedoes, post 1.2 except for the type 27. What did they do? I'm not a hex editor so no idea how to get it work with the wierd numbers they have now.

Example: Max Turn Angle : 7.61844E+3

Example: Range: 50

Hi there...

You can use a Hex-Editor to change the Torp-Settings..

2: Look now for speed

You see on the pic that i mark it with a red cycles. Just mark with your mouse this area "...A" on the right window. On the left window the fields 0000 F041 are now marked. The Torpspeed will show now by the option "Float" and with 30. 30 meens 30 knots.

3: Ok, you can change this settings.

Example: may you want that your torp runs 36 knots, just change in the LEFT window this 0000 F041 to 0000 1042

4: More speed?

Just change the settings from 0000 F041 to 0000 3842 = 46 knots

Cheers man, been looking for an easy explanation for this stuff :up:

Is there anyway I could get the SH3MiniTweaker_build104 an the tweak files? I can't get into filefront. I get errors at file front.... I run a slimmed down version of XP an I removed some files that filefront uses in internet explorer but it's file fronts problem NOT mine. I don't load any plugin, java, cookies or activeX.

I think nvdrifter removed the tweak files from there anyway :(

tryed the link to get the tools but
 

There were no tools or down load links for them

Thanks for the new link
 

Sorry to hear one of the Modders are leaving I know I am a newby to you all just learned about all this stuff and I had SH 3 for years it took SH IV to find out about all of this. But you all have been great to me and very helpfull and give all of you a heart felt THANKS!


Dave :rock: :up: :D

Where are the SH4 tweak files for download? I went to the site link, and all I can find are old SH3 mods. Help, anyone?

I want to combine the enhanced pitch and roll mod with the longer battery life.

Can't find the file to download :oops:

It is there... just confirmed.
