Subpen AA Guns Ready For D/L
 

Working AA Guns for the roofs of the harbor subpens.
I got them tweaked and scripted for stock1.4b, GW1.1A, NYGM2.2, and U-Wac1.7. There is a detailed read me with each version for installation. I've tested them and a few others have looked at them with no complaints yet:up:

Edit: New thread because I did not want the D/L's at the end of a page. You can read the following thread to see what I did with them:http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=99002

Kapitain:smug:

Great job ! many thanks for it ! :up:

But UWAC v1.7 is an old version.... do you paned to made the locations file for V1.92 ? Plus there is a new version of UWAC near to be ready....

:up:

that is very nice
just a question how is the frame rate in harbor , did it got worse nor not a big change ?

Thanks for the kind comments guys.

redwine,
Hansolo told me he hadn't changed the port locations for 1.92 so unless the AA_platform file was radically changed I believe it will work with the newer version. The same goes for the older versions of the Tonnage war mod and GW1.0. If the port locations are the same I think the respective versions will work for them. Maybe someone with more knowledge on how the files interact or has tried it can let me know.
That brings up a side point, everyone should make sure their using the right scripted SCR for the mods their using. when I started scripting these I placed a few on what I thought were Subpens in Wilhemshaven (hadn't played from there in a while) and in game I noticed the guns have a max base height of around 6-8m's---they were hanging in mid air over some buildings (like hovercraft:rotfl: )

(;) for those of you who are planning to tweak them and possibly have them hovering in scripted circles around your harbors---after I viewed the hovering Guns in game at wilhemshaven I had a ctd a little while later while I was sailing away. It was the only ctd I experienced with all of my tests)

Jmack,
In harbor even with them firing I didn't have much of a fps drop but I have a low end system so it might not be the best for testing this. If the port someone is in had four guns placed--It's basically like adding four more ships to your harbor traffic so if you already have your port filled up it could add a strain (although the fps drop for these is no where near that of adding a moving aircraft)
If anyone that has tried these already could chime in and let me know of their fps change--I would appreciate it.


Edit: I also want to say a special thank you to Kpt. Lehmann and Der Teddy Bear for taking time out of their busy schedules to look over their mod's respective versions before release. And to terrapin for hosting them on his site.

Hi U-snafu,

thanks for that great MOD :up:. Clever, to use Type 305 to place AA-guns on the rooftop!!!

Some times ago, i added two types of AA-guns to the LAA_Platform. For heavy AA-platform, you can use the german 105 mm Double - that could be something for your MOD - and the 5 inch Double.

Nifty neato cool!:cool:

Got it Rowi58, Thks--between the both of these- shouldnt have to worry about leaving port anymore:D

For Inquiring minds.....
 

The Subpen AA mod works fine with GWX.

I have a serious fps-drop in harbors...do you know, by how much this mod makes this worse (like in %)?


GWX, btw.

I thought this mod was included in GWX:hmm:

No it wasn't included in GWX.... at least not the GWX I got. It might be planned to add it in the next patch tho, but not sure. Seeing this only affects the Sub pens it shouldn't harm anything in GWX, as far as I can see right now.

I've seen no decrease in frame rates. They are there, but seeing there's no enemy bombers striking Lorient, they're not doing anything. This is Sept of '40 btw.

Lol
yes it is in GWX
RTFM :rotfl:
Clever work from Rubini means they no longer show as aircraft spotted
So you really wont notice till all hell breaks loose

Out of interest, is there any historical basis for sub-pen roof AA guns?
