Realistic Sub

Hey guys how do you fix/make the sub ride lower in the water? I saw a post on it but there was no info really. And also based on this photograph is there a way to move the conning tower and the deck gun forward aswell for tambor, gar,gato,balao etc classes as well??



Fixed w/ major bugs

I don't know. It looks pretty damn close in those comparison pics. :hmm:

Anyways, I believe it's the sub *.sim files you are looking for. Search under 'draught' in the file. Mini Tweaker tool is needed. You can also use a hex editor. Look under single byte. The number to change is the second slot to the right of the letter 't' in draught. Remember, it's a single byte. Good luck with your mod.

Ooops, I guess S3D does work on the sub.sim files.

...btw...could that fr_ratio value mean the balance for the sub...i mean that what i have experienced, when changing draught value, it looks like the tail of the sub runs in correct level, but bow runs a bit too deep...i guess i'm gonna try to change that fr_ratio too and see what will happen....
