[REL] early Vosper MTB

the_frog · 09-01-13, 01:16 PM

Hello,

Rosomaha did a model of an early Vosper motor torpedo boat (MTB) (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...=204544&page=2), which I like very much.

He gave the permission to convert it for use in SH3. So, here's the converted plain model, without the torpedo system and without the smoke generator. I added a few extra texures and a few items:

The entire fleet:

Many thanks to Rosomaha for the great model !!!

Hi Frog,

These bastards seems to do pretty good in using both sonars. Were those MTBs fitted with sonars in reality ?

the_frog · 09-14-13, 01:30 PM

Hello,

depends on the sources; some state the MTBs had sonars, some state they hadn't. Personally, it do not think they had.
I added early versions of hydrophones/sonars, to make the MTBs a bit more challenging.

I see, is there a way to remove sonars if I find it too chalenging ?

Yes.

Locate the file NPT_Vosper72.sns (... data\sea\NPT_Vosper72), open it with a text editor, find [Sensor 2] and [Sensor 3], replace the entries following LinkName= by NULL.
The desired result should be:

[Sensor 2]
NodeName=H01
LinkName=NULL
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

[Sensor 3]
NodeName=N01
LinkName=NULL
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

Thank you, did you also added the ability of depth charge to this unit ? I'm looking at the model 72' in the web of it but I can't see DC emplaicement ?

the_frog · 09-15-13, 12:14 PM

The model has the correct depth charge loadout of Vosper MTBs.

The 70' version could carry a maximum of four but were optional.
