Default GWX3.0 All Weather Guns

This mod will allow the crew to work the deck and flack guns regardless of how inclement the weather conditions are.

Be advised.....the bridge crew will no longer wear their oilskins in stormy weather.

Firstly, this mod is NOT supported by the GWX Dev team, so you use it at your own risk.
If you're having problems please direct them my way on Subsim (jimbuna).
This mod allows you to use your deck and flack guns in ALL weather conditions.

Jim...does this use the same basic cfg change as the one for previous versions? If so, something everyone might want to keep in mind...NEVER move the gun when it is underwater! This will move your aim point off a little, every time you do it, until you are way off with the gun's sight. Once you have whacked the gun's sight, it will remain whacked for the rest of your patrol.

Thanks for the mod Jim. Would be totaly perfect if it could allow to use deck/flak guns in rainy weather but in calm or medium calm seas only. Since now I see it like fighting the nature no matter what, and of course it will make us go away from realism a bit..
Despite of that it is usefull mod for players with lower realism settings

Not necessarily. Just because you can use DG in heavy seas, doesn't mean you have to. You are given a choice. Besides, you'll hardly hit anything with that 15m/s wind.

I guess you're right too meduza, but still there should be a "man overboard mod" for this mod. Like use it for your own risk and concious about bringing your men safely home

To answer the previous 4 posters:

DO NOT/TRY NOT to move the gun whilst inder the waves/water (the guns won't fire anyway so it's absolutely pointless).

Those with lower realism settings may decide upon using it.

Precisely....people now have a choice.

A "man overboard mod" is a great idea.
