A 37mm on a TypeIID??????
 
Hi!

I am a confirmed TypeIID fanatic: ....That probably calls my sanity into question, …but, ….whatever!

There is one change I would like to implement: ….I want to replace the foredeck 20mm with a single 37mm. (Not too far-fetched, ….even though it was never actually done in real life.)

I have tried and tried, …..but I have so far been unsuccessful in re-assigning that “hardpoint” from “A01” to “S01”.

Is this possible????

We'll take a look, to make it work it involves some changes to the basic,cfg file, and I'm not familiar with it, when I can contact the team members with experience on it I'm sure we can work out a solution.

I am fairly certain I did this once either a 37 or an 88 just in testing
early on IIRC I succeeded after a fashion using just cfg changes.

IIRC I did both but I think the 88mm showed up without sights
like when you mount a second deckgun.

Uh Oh Mush!!!
Looks like you got competition in the Uber-ed boat field!

Except first time he fires the 37, his boat rolls over.

very interesting modification , perhaps too big gun for a small boat, but useful in the late years.

I was looking for a 37 cm gun in the tower in my IX-C, or two.:88)

I think it's a bad idea for a Type II: it's just inviting suicide.:dead:

KeptinCranky 12-21-07 06:32 PM

Suicidal? So you say, but I just took down 3 stringbags with my Duck's little 20mm single-barrel popgun, before they could bomb me I might add....did take 3 clips, If I had a rapid firing 37 I could take 'em out faster and sink more fishing boats too :88) :D

I wouldn't mind driving that prototype :up:

A Rapid Fire 37mm by way of example.

The concept is really not so far fetched!
Haveing done some time in service I know this.
We improvised when needed.
No paper work, no records.
Who is to say this never happened?

Heck, My military records don't show half of what I did
while in service!!!
So does that mean it never happened?

Mush Martin 12-21-07 11:03 PM

I tell you what it doesn't mean..........Tax Free:hmm:

Madox58 12-21-07 11:05 PM

Do you guys pay taxies?
:lol:

Madox58 12-21-07 11:06 PM

I mean TAXES!!!
:rotfl:

Mush Martin 12-21-07 11:07 PM

Typo or no ? :hmm:


Speaking as a cab driver you should always pay your taxi

I have a question

oh quick to edit hunh.

fine then yes we pay an average of 55% off the top if you count everything
but the gas taxes
