HELP, is there any slightly tweaking...?

Adriatico · 07-17-07, 10:27 AM

I am asking in a name of 10% GWX users who have serious daily work and family obligations, i.e. do not have 7-8 hours to try&practice superb convoy attack combinations...

Is there any tweak, mode or something else, that would make our approach and escape combinations to convoy rewarded sometimes, instead of three DDs pinging us instantly and endlessly...- after single torpedo shot at convoy ???

Not asking for a baby mode, just some possible 10-15% decreasing tweak ...if there is any existing?

Congratulations to all the "wolfs" who have a nice escape records, thare is no need to emphasize it again ...

Any mode or tweak for exausted "dadies" who want to decrease superb escort performance...for some critical 10-15%?

If you aren't confident in striking at convoys...then don't bother. If you're a noob at the game (I've been playing for half a year and I still suck) don't bother ending your career for some extra tonnage. But from what I've learned...if you get caught, Dive and run silent. If you're deep...go deeper...and aim towards the convoy, if you can get among them, the escort will most likely lose your position.

After they've lost your signal, stay dead in the water and wait till a good time to escape, just wait till they've all left then surface and do any repairs you need to do.

It's logical...dunno if that's what happens in game though

And also, attack at night. Main thing...Attack...At...Night...

There is a sensor mod available that 'downgrades' or 'lessens' their effectiveness. It's available from UBRS (can't remember it's name and I'm not at home right now) but I'm sure someone will be along soon to confirm or otherwise

Adriatico · 07-17-07, 04:00 PM

It sounds great, just right thing,...
If there is any chance, please determine the download link.

As I said, I am not asking for a baby mode... just some slightly decreased escort effectivnes, that would make sense to our "non expert" combinations and tactics... still with deep simulation envirinment, but with those 20% survival chance in escape combinations (within early 1942...for example)

I do appreciate "wolfpack" achievements within subsim comunity, but there are GWX fans who have 2-3 hours per week to try some tactics... and would be delighted to survive 1 of 5 attempts.

Come on wolves, there are tweaking gurus out there...

Did you have a look at Rubini's "Stay Alert mod ver 1.2"? I believe it increases the effectiveness of your watch and sonarman.
There is also a modded AI_Sensors.dat file included, by Jungman. From the readme, I gather it slightly decreases the effectiveness of the escorts.

Adriatico · 07-18-07, 01:06 AM

Thanks mate,
but is it decreased compared to stock sim or compared to GWX ?

Zero Niner · 07-18-07, 03:39 AM

Makes them slightly less effective than GWX (if I interprete the readme correctly).

Adriatico · 07-18-07, 04:48 AM

If it is OK with you, I would PM an e-mail address... to send me just AI_Sensors.datPlease confirm and many, many thanks for information!

Hi Adriatico, if you are using 8k atmosphere then you could check this thread:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=118709
jump to post #5.

Cheers.

Adriatico · 07-18-07, 02:16 PM

Thanks Reece,
just want to be sure that it is just slightly decreased DD's performance...

Challenging escorts is 60% of passion and excitment of this simulation!
I'll give it a go tonight!

(by the way, did anyone figured out text file for tweaker, for a fine tuning?)

Good to see your sorted.....cheat

Is this the same "remedy" you mentioned above... or it's some other file?

Jimbuna · 07-19-07, 07:30 AM

It was a different mod

Adriatico · 07-19-07, 10:22 AM

Any chance to recall the file name or address ?
