Hi Captains,
i will tell you something about the newest update for FOTRS comming up in December. First we debuged some things in the campaign. The English-Version is now fully English, no more german shipnames and so on. :damn: Some new Units ( Ships and Planes ) are integrated to the scene. Another brand new thing is the new planeflight-management. With an small tricky thing iam able to let the fighters attack you in a high speed low level flight about 10 Meters obove waterline. How does it work ? Remember, the torpedobombers came along in an low level flight for bringing their torpedo to the target. The torpedoloadout is the thing which let them fly so deep. If you give an fighter an torpedo, he will also fly deep above the waterline. Same to all other planes. So ive made some invisible Airtorpedos with no sound, no explosion and no splasheffect, they couldnt harm you but this torpedodummys are the reason why fighters can attack your boat in an low level flight. Adding more Bombnodes to the fighters and loading the fighter with those dummys bring the effect.:know: This kind of attack is much more harmfull for any kind of ship cause they got more hits with their guns on the target. :rotfl: Shooting this deep flying fighter with your flak is nearly impossible. :huh: You can choose the kind of attacking of an fighter by the loadout. If you choose "Elite" Loadout, they got this dummys and attack you in a low level flight. Here are the new Units : Planes : G4M Betty as an Torpedobomber with 30mm Gun in the Nose : http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/B...4BettyTorp.jpg You can see the new japanese Airtorpedo. The Betty attacks you in a low level flight while the first attack is with the real torpedo. All other attacks will come with the dummy´s. They are deadly. An other new unit is the Nakajima Ki 88 Hayate, coming to the scene in 1944 ! http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/Ki842.jpg Here you can see her attacking you in a low level flight ! http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/B...lugangriff.jpg Here some new ships : 1.) US Supplyship based on an Victory http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder/VictoryV1.jpg 2.)

Nakajima Ki 84 Hayate : http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/Ki84N2.jpg 2.) Nakajima B6N2 Tenzan http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/B6N201.jpg 3.) Republic P-35 http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/P35.jpg Greets MadMax |
This Mod Should Be Pinned To The Top of The Page
I have played pretty much all of the SH4 mods and I can tell you that this one is one of the best.
Once the remaining German verbiage gets converted to English, it will be almost perfect. Is this update still on target for Dec 20th? As this is one of the top mods going for SH4, it should be pinned to the top of the page withe the other all encompassing mods. |

FOTRS is made for SH4 V1.4 cause V1.4 is the better choice for the Fleetboatcampaign ( minor bugs ) and for multiplayer ! Greets Maddy |
