Radar antennas bug

jaxa · 06-15-06, 04:45 PM

There are five uboot radar types available in SH3: FuMO29, FuMO30, FuMO61, FuMO64 and FuMO391. All of them, except of FuMO29, should have rotary, rectangular antennas, mounted on the left side of conning towers. Only FuMO29 should has immovable antenna mounted on the face of uboot's conning towers.
In SH3 type VII and type IX all radar antennas are mounted like FuMO29, on the face of conning tower - it's incorrect. Type XXI hasn't this bug, his antennas are mounted correctly like in real life.
Is it possible to fix this bug?

I have been asking this question off and on for the last year. If you find a way to fix it, ill be your number 1 fan.

Sadly, i don't think its within anyones power to fix except ubisoft.

It's a pity

May be somebody knows how to do it?

I was looking into this one, but got distracted. I'll add it back to the list.

I'm not a programmer, but could somebody (who knows how to do it) compare game files of type XXI, VII and IX with available radar? Type XXI has radar antennas at good position and types VII/IX have conning towers with place for antennas. May be it's possible to fix it. :hmm:
I think it would be better to remove radar antennas of FuMO30, 61, 64 and 391 from face of conning towers at all, if it's not possible to change their actual position. It looks stupid now.

Hi not sure if this is what you mean

If it is -its a 3d object so its coordinates can be moved to reposition it

You read phrases written by red letters?
cfg#R01... - radar 01
cfg#R02... - radar 02
cfg#C01... - radar warning
