Cargo no longer slides into the ocean

Tikigod · 04-05-06, 04:34 PM

I'm not sure where this was changed....but, I noticed the cargo in my install no longer slides and falls into the ocean. I rememeber there were times when I would crack a ship in half some of the boxes, etc, would slide into ocean from the decks. It was a nice touch graphically. I believe the tanks, and other items, slid in as well depending on the pitch of the deck....

Does anyone know when this was changed? was it a patched by ubi? or a mod? I'm thinking it had something to do with the latest offical patches by ubi. The last time I remember seeing this was back around the first patches after I had just bought the game when I played it using just a vanilla install. Since then I have been usign alot of mods..and I'm not sure if any of those like RUB had anything with changing this feature.

What mods if any have you installed?

Not that I payed that much attention to detaill (damn my Drill Sgt would kill me.....) the last time I sank a ship either the cargo went up in flames with the ship or I couldn't see much of anything because of the smoke.

I am using GW (Grey Wolves) and they added a new smoke texture and when i sink a ship it seems that smoke is everywhere! Its pretty cool, but can hurt low end cpus.

I'll have to watch for this the next time I sink a merch :hmm:

I use all seperate mod installs and fix the stuff that might conflict. My main mods are RUB + HT 1.47 + Hollywood Advanced for RUB, Unified Campaign, NYGM Crew Management, Captain America's Gauge Fix, and a bunch of other graphic/sound and other minor things.

I noticed this cargo slide problem since just installing the RUB so it could be even before using that mod that the change was made...I'm just wondering if it was a ubisoft patch or if it was an alteration in the ship damage models in RUB that stopped it the sliding cargo.

I know its harder to shoot boxes with deck gun with RUB....they used to break apart and you could knock them around on deck....now they seem very rigid and unmoveable...they only burn or explode if you hit them 100 times...before if you hit them a few times they would explode and cause fires on the deck....and if the ship began to lean they would slide....

I understand the boxes not burning and blowing up caused by RUB....but, where did the sliding go?
