[TEC] Regarding Super Guns by nvdrifter

MaxT.dk · 05-20-07, 02:03 PM

Hey guys

In the past 2 hours (if not more), I've played with nvdrifter's Super Gun Mod (the new download link is here) and I like everything about that mod except one thing.

When you use the Deck Gun, 1 hit destroys ANY ship withing a second. It just sort of disappears. And that I do not like... After my likeness, it should take about 4-5 shots to sink a ship.

I know many of you do not like these kinds of mods. That's why I've started myself with minitweaker, installed it, learned it etc. But I just can't figure this last detail.

If we look at this from the technical side, could any of you help me with this please?

From the top of my head, check the "shells" files,
you may want to reduce the power of shells.

1) It would be nice to know which file to edit (there are 8 of'em). I suppose it is Deck_Gun_4_50.sim (since my Balao have this Deck Gun).

2) Under category "Shell Specs" I couldn't find anything regarding power (for that matter, I couldn't find something similar under any category). I did seen the "Clip size" tho' and tried to edit it from 32000 to 1 (standard), but it hasn't helped a bit

Maybe this thread has more info.

Hmm, I had a look and frankly said, there's not much information which I could use. I've sent a PM to Beery, maybe he can help

Thanks for the idea!

It's the shells.zon file you'll need to tweak for this. I think you're probably trying to tweak the deck gun sim files. The shells.zon file has min and max damage values for each gun type and there are a few tweak files available for it.
