[WIP] Longer and Brighter Torpedo Wakes

I am currently working on a mod that will increase length and brightness of torpedo wakes. Will post when finished.

W_clear, when I am finished with the torpedo wakes mod I will look at these files and see if I can make a tweak file to adjust them.

Hi everyone. Thanks for being so patient. I haven't forgotten about this mod. I have been working on an SH4 torpedo wake mod, but unfortunately the dev team actually re-hardcoded important parts of the SH4 torpedo.dat file. I can increase the lengths still, but there are other problems that I can't adjust this time around... such as the total length of wake showing instantly (no wake timer), and the curved edges cannot be smoothed (they are blocky). I have been trying to decode some of the hardcoded stuff, trying to find the correct settings. I will still try to release a version, but sadly it probably won't be as good as my SH3 torp wake mod.

NNNOOOOOOOO!!!

Those pesky Jap destroyers can already easily pick up a steam torp from far enough away as it is! You're just making it easier for them!

Just who's side are you on in this war eh? :p



Nice one really...
