does GWX have depth charge shake?

Looks like it does, since the command room shoke while being pounded. Just another treat from the GWX devs.

I've installed the Scire - Tikigod repeated orders mod and loving it.

I believe that the shaking of the boat is somehow related to the new boat dynamics. I figure this since nvdrifter's depth charge shaking mod actually undoes the new rocking boat dynamics of GWX. One of those silly shared file structure things I suppose.

So I think that perhaps the new shaking seen in GWX is a side effect of the rocking boat.

There's this depth charge mod P_Funk mentioned. It increases the shakes. Near detonations almost turn the view upside down, obviously to simulate how those shakes would feel in real. It's very nice.

Yes but I do believe it cancels out the rocking boat effect of GWX. Hard to choose.

I'm not sure what you mean. The rolling boat in rough seas? If it got canceled I obviously haven't missed it very much since I wasn't even aware that it's gone. I don't have the game running to check that right now.

I believe that it was mentioned in the readme. I doesn't cancel it out, so much as alter it. I think that I remember one side effect being that your boat will shake in rough seas.

The shaking is definately there. But I'm in the nav station most of the time anyway.
