SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - [REL] Open Horizons II

In patch included files: guns_air (dat, sim, zon), guns_Rck (dat, sim) and Shells_Rck (dat, sim, zon, dsd). Now they do not need, guns added in aircrafts .Sim files, all for missiles have in 4 new files guns_Rck. May be the case in this? I have no CTD.

You mean this ?

Elaborate this in more details please...
I'm using those mods for a few months and I newer had any problems until
now.:hmmm:

I also used AI_sub_crew_1_0_2_TheDarkWraith with the appearance date. This mod causes CTD when approaching the playerbase. I do not understand why, but this is it. SkyBarons Leigh Light for SH5 1.1 also causes CTD (see the forum), i also had CTD. I reduced the size of the model and rewrote sim and zon files - no CTD.:hmmm:

Guys , this is starting to be very complicated, isn't it better to have Serge's airplane mod as a standalone?? Now It's divided in several mod and patches, OHII main mod, OHII patch and few others?? Am I right?

OPEN HORIZONS II v2.3 - rocket & air guns patch v 0.1

Hi guys, can you please check if by any chance my patch makes things better for you?

http://www.mediafire.com/download/0y...%20v%200.1.rar

I have made my best to homogenize Serge's files with settings and internal structure of analogue stock files (removed unused chunks, sorted chunk indices as per their usage order wihin each file, removed unused AO map channels, fixed some wrong material assignations). Moreover, I have remapped the Id's of all the nodes, just in case your crashes were caused by an Id conflict, I have put rocket's smoke effect in an external file and I have linked it to the rocket model as trail effect, I have made the rocket to use launch and fly by sound effects from GWX (hope it is okay :)), etc.

I hope it works. Let me know :salute:

P.S: I am now working on a better British 3-inch rocket model. It should be ready before tomorrow :up:

Thank you Trevally, what I still don't get is: do I have to add the new bases (and the aircraft they spawn) to each nation's roster?

I have found a heap of new aircraft (even more than the ones recently imported by Serge :sunny:) and for most of them I have collected detailed information on air forces/squadrons which employed them during WWII, air bases equipped with them, and service timespans for each location. It would be cool having all of the above modelled in game, with correct variants, camo schemes and armament used according to date, location and air force :up:

one question
When you updated the airbases to include missing planes - did you test the range of these added planes against the players base?

What I mean is that if any aircraft from an airbase is within range of your U-boat bunker - an air raid is sent when you leave port.
This air attack causes ctds. I had removed some planes from airbases to prevent this attack and thus the following ctd

Wow was great and no ctd.

@Srege
So the uboat bunkers are now back within range of UK air attack
But I had no issues - perhaps the ctd was an error with one of the aeroplanes that you fixed:06::hmmm:

Yes - after making the new land unit as the airbase - then that country needs a roster entry for that land unit (airbase) and thus that country must have the aeroplanes within their rosters that are set as [airgroups] within the airbase(land unit) cfg

Serge has also added new Russian aeroplanes and airbases - this needs an update to the airlayer for them to enter the campaign (on my to do list)

Ah yes - less debris would have been better - can you post a link Gap
One step closer to some great air raids on harbours - just needs fighter protection and balloons:D

Has anyone else managed to test these attacks in French harbours?
Its a big breakthough as this ctd has restricted the airlayer for years in this game.

Anyone with some spare time - please try the BlackPit campaign with OHII v2.3 and patch1:salute:

At this point I only need some head ups on how to edit OH's campaign layers (which ones?) to add the new bases :88)

I thought of a method for making the balloons at least collisionable. It involves the creation of some dummy land units with balloons attached through eqp file. Maybe we can even do the balloons to swing in the air. Need to test it :hmmm:

Another feature which needs for attenction is coastal artillery, which currently does nothing. Fixing it shouldn't be impossible, since in SHIII-IV coastal guns work as supposed, but going by Serge's comment in the IRAI thread, making them to fire would require the tweaking of SHim.act.

The final breakthrough would be having some dogfights in game (currently rear and side aircraft turrets are pointless, because air-to-air interaction is not coded), but I doubt we will ever see it in SH5...

I have not yet looked OPEN HORIZONS II v2.3 patch1 beta.
In OHII v2.3 has got older version of missiles.
Old version - 6 files: guns_Rck (dat, sim) and Shells_Rck (dat, sim, zon, dsd). Old files to delete.
New version - only 4 files: guns_Rck (dat, sim, zon, dsd).

The "air guns & rocket" patch I have posted at post #4427 is not compatible with your updates, included in ''OPEN HORIZONS II v2.3 patch1 beta''. If either your or my updated rocket files will solve sober's and vdr1981's issues, I will merge their settings, or you can do it yourself if you prefer :up:
