[REL] Browning .50 MG v1.1a
 

Browning .50 MG (1.2 compatible)
---------------
Ok for your deck sweeping enjoyment comes the Browning .50 (12.7mm?) Machine Gun
This appears to have been disabled by the dev's and was left in the game.
I re-enabled it for use but it has some limitations, 1)It will not elevate high
enough to engage aircraft flying high overhead, 2)It has no target reticle so
you must lead your target with the tracers.
This should "not" be considered as a replacement for your AA guns, if you don't
normally engage aircraft then it makes a cool weapon to sink small craft, with
that in mind I included lots of ammo, it uses a 100 rd box type magazine and I
saw no reason why a skipper couldn’t have 40 or so of these stacked in the boat
somewhere.
The weapon is available for all boats but does "NOT" work well on any sub with
a "bathtub type" AA deck (it sits very low) Works nicely on the S boats.
I really think this weapon is unfinished and hopefully the Dev's will include
a proper working version in a later patch.
I've also included my S-18 Conning Tower Mod (cheat) so you can mount this for
early war patrols.
(This mod works with version 1.1 of SH4)
(This is Compatible with The Increased & Improved ammo mods)

I put this in with the mod inabler and I cant see it or fire it..What am I doing wrong???..:oops: How do you take the screen shot from above the boat and so close???????????

I took the screenie with Shift+F2

If you installed it in your mods folder and enabled it, it should be in game...
you have to select and install it on your boat from the upgrades panel in port.

Clayp...I just d/l the mod and checked the files and installed, everything seems to be in order. You must not be selecting it as an upgrade.

I havent started anything in port yet,what should I do? I just started playing the game and have no previous sub sim experiance..Sorry....:oops:

Ok...start a career, choose your port and sub, after it loads you will be in an office, click on the sub on the desk and you will see a screen showing your subs configuration.
From here you can manage your upgrades, crewmen and torpedos...Good luck :D

Thanks! I'll be using it! :up:

Thanks I'll give it a shot I havent the foggeist...:hmm:

:up:

Ah! the perfect weapon for sweeping lifeboats outa the way :up:

How good does it look close up? Here's a real .50 if it needs fixing:

Cool...the in game model looks good close up, it differs in that it has a fully shrouded barrel.
