Thankyou both for replying

Graf Paper it's just a single mission i've made because i got fed up with having careers mess up. Furthest i ever got was about June 44, before i had to abandon the career due to messed up saves, so after playing most of the single missions i just figured i'd work on a single mission that would keep me entertained for a number of hours gameplay, and instead of finding the enemy, they'd come and find me as i and the pride of the German carrier fleet ran the gauntlet through British waters.

Therefore it's not a mod release, but you're welcome to the mission if you want it.

CWorth (anything to do with Cosworth by chance?

) . . . i have very few mods running actually, on GWX 3 with
Community Units for GWX 3
VonDos armed liners ( a folder i made up to add all of VonDos's ships in one hit for JSGME)
RN CV Glorious ( cos it's not been incorporated in the above yet)
Gerome's Bismark-Tirpitz multiskin
Torpedo damage final version 2
The Q-ship mod
A Green atlantic 8k ( different sea colour for the 8k atmosphere)

That's it.

I think personally that theres a numerical error somewhere in the damage model for the German cruisers, but probably no ones noticed cos most people don't see the German cruisers under fire regularly, if ever.

I've looked in various folders and files, and it looks like the problem might be in zone 5 in the .zon files (which corresponds with number 5 in the zones.cfg index), but i daren't touch it cos in that section are x,y and z co-ordinates with numerical values ( to 4 or 5 dec. points) and i could make it worse, or make the game crash by messing with it.

A bit of advice from a ship modeller who knows how to set the armour levels for the engine rooms on the German cruisers is what i need really, but they're not forth coming lol.

While i'm on damage models, to have the Graf Zeppelin aircraft carrier sunk by a destroyer seems a bit much as well, which is another thing nobody will probably have noticed.

The Illustrious and Graf Zeppelin should be more like VonDos's CV Glorious . . . tough to sink with gunfire but without the big guns.

But thanks again for trying to help, the post has been up for almost a week ( or at least it feels like it) and nobody previously replied before you two.
. . . much appreciated

.

I might have to bend VonDos's ear soon, or pick his brains etc.

Can't have my comrades conking out every time they see an enemy shell lol.
