Yes lee, I had a good laugh over Martins comment about the rowing, wasn't exactly the kind of help I was looking for though!!:D

Not sure what I can do to show the problem with saving missions, ie losing the damage textures when restarting them. Here's a pic of my boat while finally heading away from the area, no external damage showing.

On the other hand, I was totally surprised to see that the loss of one diesel engine showed up quite well on the external model! I have had plenty of damage inflicted on my boat before, even losing the whole thing, but never lost an engine before, so thought this was a nice detail in SH3. The starboard prop is not turning at all, really like that kind of detail, but would rather see it on someone elses boat,lol

Nice Detail I have had that a few times in um well RiverFF testing :oops:
but because no save was involved at anytime my boat always
looked like it had been beaten with an ugly stick six or seven
times too many.:doh:]

boy can I ever see the difference now between uber 1.3
and uber 2.0 it kinda leaps of the page at you after
the bigger hull


leeclose 04-04-07 07:52 AM

Ocean blues damage model deffinatly makes the boats look more damaged and when your pounding the allied ships with your guns wow ive seen some funky stuff will post some screen shots over the next few days. Also guys when your posting error for me to look at can you also post what ram and cpu and video card your using just to make sure it aint a graphic card error etc.

Nice pic there Eddie:o I am going to give this an honest go on the weekend, see if I can improve upon my current ranking.......last, bottom, whatever:stare:

New computer should make this a better experience as well.

actually RDP to continue you in the rankings we had to adopt integers
:rotfl:

Uber Alert there has been an instance of uber leaving its guns and shells
behind after uninstalling although not 100% certain it is beleved by me
that it was caused by not removing mods installed after uber was when
deactivating uber in jsgme , therefore it is recommended to all
that all mods below uber in jsgme list should be deactivated at the
same time or previous to uber and then re established in your game
by activation again in jasgme afterwards.

for those that like to play the pure game this kind of issue would be
a problem.

Good going phantom keep up the uber boot work:up:

PhantomLord 04-05-07 06:19 PM

It´s only the preliminary result. My wife forces me to save and exit. She can´t hear it anymore....that boom bang...she´s going down! :rotfl:

Mush Martin 04-05-07 07:02 PM

Get headphones save your marriage,

My whole thing about video games is that It came with
a pause button for a reason. it works like this

whenever my wife says "Honey Can You"? I faithfully hit pause
right away without hesitation, because now that I do that faithfully
and without hesitation she now goes to great lengths to not
interrupt me unless its absolutely necessary. no whining no nagging
no hassles. its a good arrangement.

[edit] so In doing all those Auto Evasive Maneuvers tests this week and last
it became apparent that uber was suffering some severe instability
under high speed radical maneuvers, as a result I have totally
increased ubers mass and displacement Up to the same level
as the U.S, submarine argonaut but with ubers Dilithium
powered engines. as a result uber is a steady gun platform
at moderate speeds and has fair high speed stability but
still rocks like a boat should in a hard corner she feels
like she seems more sluggish slightly but I think its largely that
as I didnt increase horsepower when I increased mass and displacement
she doesnt accellerate as fast but still turns in about the same radius
as before, to my mind its subliminal sluggishness more of a feel
thing.

For 2.0 series ubers Lee as the only
person currently testing I will bag up the new
boat for you sometime shortly its just that
id like to take the time to try and get ubers
auto evasive working a bit better yet and
its tedious details and testing.

Time for this weeks uber update for those who care.

Well uber 2.0 went out to testing this week but will
be sometime before its finished,

2.0 is now as those who've been following along
already know is now based on a typeIXD2 instead
of the originals IXB hull.

2.0 now has Directors cut auto evasion maneuvers mod
built into it. and what a huge difference it makes to
the enjoyment of the experience.
AEM is a little quirkey but if you master its quirks
it is so worth the effort.
now you can order your crew to zig zag while
you fight the ship. a tremendous enhancement
of uber, (although not really intended it was for video makers)
but it works great.

when I used to do manual driving and we would get in
range of 2nd escort group in the included mission they
would score 1 for 32 shells
with my original evasion pattern prototype
they would score 1 for 16 shells
yesterday after I released it the day before I got to
use it in an actual game of surface combat as opposed to
testing and wow althought I wouldnt garauntee the
result we sat in amazement yesterday with our
hands off the wheel and watched while the
autopilot as it were got up there
result was as best we could count
1 hit for 64 shells from elite six elite blackswans from GWX

an astounding result to say the least but whats
more important is that it reduces the skippers
workload down to enjoyable, a fantastic addition.

2.0 also has the following changes

More speed (37.5 kts on glassy seas with no engine upgrades)

more armour on the conning tower gun postions and a few
armour tweaks for the rest of the sub to make twenty
minutes in heavy surface combat survivable.

Ships mass and displacement increased to 2500 tons surfaced
for improved stability in high speed extreme maneuvers
(she still rolls about 35 to 35 but this is an improvement
over rolling 60 to 60 ) also this was partly resultant
of simultaneous speed change so a balance had to be met
she still rolls under high speed like she should and
is steady at all other speeds

upgrade power boost now 1.125 and 1.25 respectively
(112.5% or 125% original speed rating)
peridepth and schnorkel depth both now 12.5 m
that I guess will conclude this weeks uberupdate for now.

eddie 04-10-07 11:42 AM

Sounds good MM!!:cool:

Mush Martin 04-11-07 10:05 AM

Thanks eddie nice to see my first customer still kicking in contributions.


I should have put this out two or three
days ago and im sorry to all.

however for those of you with uber
1.3 beta it is advised that you d/l
Directors cut Auto evasive maneuvers
from my FF as this will really do a
lot to make it more fun and less work

I drove handsfree half an hour in the
surface combat mission and let my
crew drive and shoot without input
it works great if you master the few
quirks that AEM has. totally worth it.

Doomgiver 04-12-07 08:36 AM

has this mod been released or is it just with the people in the development team that have it what is with the Star Destroyer, is it a AA uint now because i'm going to have a whole lot of fun
