Looking for Ubertorps,better smoke,and oil slicks..AND SURFACE SHIPS TO DRIVE!!!!!!!

Hey guys, im runnin gwx 1.02, and it seems like my ship/fire smoke doesnt look nearly as good as i remembered it when i first got sh3.... what i'd realy like is realy good looking, dense smoke, fps not being an issue on my rig.( giggity giggity)

Also, i seem to se a profound lack of flaming, awesome oil slicks when i plaster tankers, carriers, or anything for that matter. there were some awesome ones in sh2, used to look like hell on water.....now it just looks like.....water, with a couple boxes..i want destruction!!!!!!! (i think i remember the hollywood eyecandy mod or something?????)

and for the sake of boredom, and a will for Shenanigans, i cant seem to make my own ubertorps..... i took the walther torp, made it go 90kts, and tried to give it a 3000m blast radius, with massive damage, ie over 1000, and it changed nothing.....no entire convoy torching, not even one ship sinks with one torp.........again using gwx1.02......

and a warning to all, do NOT beef up the 20mm guns too far, or when dd's shoot your peri, youll die in one hit......was having that problem....:nope:

Gee that's a tall order, as far as the Torpedoes are concerned use MiniTweaker & adjust the Torpedo.zon file, change the Min & Max EF values for each type of torpedo.:yep:

You will be fitting TLAM's to that VIIC of yours next lol :lol:, post a few screens of the damage. Uber torps should make a very pretty explosion.

I quite literally spent a saturday afternoon once trying to shoot
down a plane using a black swan class sloop for AA ammo
about ten tries no hits , bit of a shame really would have
made a great pic if I could have gotten it.

Gotta love that MM ... looks like the Philidelphia experiment gone terrably wrong.:lol:

Oh no according to the test data everything went perfect except
for the aiming thing

Look up in the sky .... it's a bird .... it's a Plane .... No it's ....... a destroyer!:huh::88)

Thank God it wasn't a bird!:lol:

Oh you hate those seagulls too,

maybe I should have tried to hit one of them withit.

I actually have a tip about use of ubertorps

its a good idea to make them more sensitive
and have them run an extra metre or two
below the target ship if you want to get
a nice vertical lift. other wise they tend
to spiral off sideways which of course
is also fun, but one of the best things
about ubertorps is watching a destroyer
breakup on re entry like a bad day at NASA

really hillarious shame I dont have a pic of that
handy.

In one of the funniest sequences it exploded
at the top of the arc and the lifeboat came
off and followed it through about a two mile
drop and crashed straigh onto the deck
I had a great series for humorous pics thread
but it got dumped by accident in a purge.
while waiting for me to put in text bubbles.

:rotfl::rotfl:

I want nuclear torps now, one torp impact on a convoy and good night to the whole convoy. :shifty:

WE WANT NUCLEAR TORPS, COMPLETE WITH MUSHROOM CLOUD!:lol:

Fine I have it bagged up as a mod but I had rejected it
so give me a few minutes to do a readme and Ill put it
up on FF
MM

Can't wait to fire a spread!:lol:
