Ok we now got sh4 ships how about the planes

[andy_311]

I read in the sh4 forum that they got the Avro Lancaster in sh4 which wasn't used in the Pacific although it was never there.
My idea is there anyone who can make it availabe for sh3? (I don't have sh4) I think it would make a good impact on sh3 especially as a high altitude bomber in late war heading to Germany any sugestions anyone?

I'm not sure if this is possible, you could probably put about 100 lancs in the air and make it look like they're off to level Berlin again...but the AI might make them try to attack you, which might be a bit of a problem! ALAARRRMMM!:rotfl:

Take out the AI_Fight?

There must be a way to stick a 100 bombers at very high altitude and make them fly over you towards some major city I can't see a AI bomber crew spotting a u-boat on the surface from 25000ft.

The FPS hit from a hundred bombers would be huge
Plus if you can see them they can see you

The FPS from 100 bombers I can certainly assure you from
experience does hit the fps however in the case stated
not so bad.

40 or 50 in two seperate groups would be fine because if they are
at altitude they dont hit the fps nearly so bad as they are far away
it is when an object is close to you in game that it seems to bog
down, twenty dive bombers wont collapse your system but it
will allow you to go make tea but they are moving fast and close.

as for taking the fight out of them thats as simple as making them
neutral random generated group set to spawn once and hour with100%
probability of spawn then just set the course for them to take and
put another three groups fifteen, thirty and fortyfive minutes inland from
the first group. what you get is a steady stream of two groups of
bombers passing over head every fifteen minutes set them to delete
on last waypoint somewhere inland of the far shore and the appearence
is all good as in gwx the map wont identify them as neutrals, but your
crew wont waste ammo on them and they wont regard you .

if you need help or have questions the thing to realize is that it
doesnt spawn from an airbase or carrier, if that dont help then
just pm me Ill be glad to.

And IIRC you dont get an " aircraft spotted " message with neutral aircraft so you wont even know they are there anyway

I wouldn't expect a 100 planes just say 10 or 15 at very high altitude would suffice.
AS far am concerned If we had the Lancaster,B-17,and the HE-111, I really think this gane would be complete as far a bombers are concerned. what ever happened to the airship mod ? anyone know?

I know EXACTLY where it's at!

It started out as what I thought would be a simple thing.
But as I researched the Airships, and learned more and more
about the workings of SH3,

It grew!!

It got much better then even I pictured at first!

So just keep humming the Theme from JAWS!!

It has taken until this moment for me to deduce the meaning of
IIRC :rotfl:
