I would not see why they wouldn't work with FOTRS also. (similar to my using TMO's Torpedo_US.sim file for duds)

edit> also checked out Nicolas' SH-AIFIX Mods. For anyone else reading this, there are actually 2 of these Mods (by Nicolas) listed in the download section. The most current one (latest version) is the SH-AIFIX 3.rar even though the file date stamp is earlier than the one in the SH-AIFIX.zip upload. I had a little difficulty extracting the SH-AIFIX.exe file from this .rar. Seems Win10 Defender kept wanting to quarantine this .exe file version. I could find nothing wrong with it but proceed at your own risk. The -3 version is the one with the red text to let you know if the Mod(s) are toggled on or off and let's you selectively toggle either feature.

I have not checked to see if compatible with FOTRS but good chance it is, believe FOTRS was originally based off of TMO(been a long time so if wrong, forgive me)


I am pretty happy with the depth charge mod as have had multiple attacks using both the Type 95 and Type 2 charge at appropriate phases of the war. Routinely take damage but the magic killing blow is extremely rare(as it was in real life). Type 2 (later war) is obviously more of a danger., especially when deployed by the Type C and Type D escorts with their numerous launchers.

If I do another version, I may give the Type 95 a little more power. I mean it does a great job of representing the charge in the sim but at times seems underpowered, prob just needs minimum hit points upped a bit.
