@ Growler : Wow, thank you very much for your explanation. Concerning AP shells, I see what you mean . It would have been nice to have several deck gun damage textures, one for each type, AP, HE... In case it's possible to mod it, I must say I don't have skills to do it.
Also, the deck gun damage is directly based on the torp damage texture : and none of them (torpedoes) left little holes on hulls.
So even for AP shells, I think you'll never see little holes . I mean, it's possible to do it, but in case you load the game with that texture, the torp damage will appear as well as a little hole... You see the problem.

Thanks one more time, guys, for your answer !
Alex - all credit to you, mate, for taking this type of mod on. I kinda suspected that the damage textures were shared, both in game, and from what I've seen guys remarking about on here. It's kind of a shame that Ubi took the simple route out on that one, rather than model different damage differently. Bit, in their defence, I can see why.

Good luck with this - it looks like you're handling it well to me.
