Hey! I'm not that old!

Although, there was this one gal at NUSC. She was the lead for the MK-117 project, and I was doing acoustic analysis of the MK-48...

I'ld go on, but I'ld have to kill myself.:ping: And you and all you hold dear.

Shame on you! That line's old and tired and been used too often by the guys who couldn't buy a ticket.

Target speed = 13
Torp speed = 30
As you can see in this pic, the Ta = 96 (after my formula subtracts it from 180 I get a lead angle of 22.4.) Right on the money.

Oh ya, if you hadn't figured it out, this is SH5. I switch back and forth between 4 or 5. SH5 has come a looooong way with all the mods. It's completely playable now.

Well thank the Blessed Oliver Plunkett!

Yeah, but grounders are so easy at this time of the morning. It is morning, isn't it?

Ya, I prefer playing fleet boats but the graphics are stunning in SH5 and the gameplay is as good as SH4 now in my opinion. I do feel a sense of betrayal at times sailing around sinking allied ships, though. All in the name of recreation, right.

I know, I know. SH5 doesn't have the best reputation but there are about 3 or 4 must have mods that make it a good game.

Please post them. (Names that is!) I might give it a try just for the eyecandy. Thanks.

No problem. Here are what I would consider the basic "must haves". Install in this order. There are many, many others you'll probably want to pick up but these are the foundational mods you need.

[WIP] FX_Update by TDW.
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=174511
- mostly improves effects but does include some bug fixes

[REL] Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=166093
- Does too many things to list here. Basically fixes 90% of the bugs and unusable parts of the game, to include the broken stadimeter.
[WIP] IRAI (Intelligent Random AI)
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=171973
- Makes the AI challenging (think TMO for SH5).

[TEC] SH5.exe patches to fix bugs and add functionality
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...eneric+Patcher
- fixes other broken aspects of game, like the hydrophone...that's a big one.

Thanks, Dignan. You da man!:up:
