My mods compilation

[volodya61]

I see this is a Tips thread
Can I also have any advice?

[Fifi]

More seriously, i started this compilation a while ago from Sober's list, with my favourit mods only.
Of course there are plenty more i (we) could add to it...but usely i choose a mod i'm interested in, and test it in career. It takes some time to valid it in my list (even if sometimes i don't see any uncompatibility - thanks again to Volodya for pointing out some and sharing his experiences!) and when no issues and/or CTD or slow downs, i add it in right place
It's not easy because some talented modders as TDW are releasing mods new version very often
And sometime, have to wait to be back in bunker to activate new mod...don't want to start career everytime! (well some mods needs to)

Anyway, again, the first post list is running fantastic here, without any problems of all kind. It's the goal! My goal!

Back with the best sound mod around, Stormys DBSM
(with VLC as default player on my rig, because windows media player having issues with some files and giving random CTDs)

Added in first post:
-Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 Basemod
-Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 HOTFIX 3
-Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 optional -6db damped Sonarguy
-RPM Hydrophone merchants 2.0 -for OHII full v2.0- (english)
-_addon chart_RPM Hydrophone Merchants 2.0 -for OHII full v2.0-
-SkyBaron's Bold SFX for SH5 1.0

Last mod, had to edit sh file of SH5Lifeboats_by_Rongel_TDW_stoianm_v2.11 to add the 2 entries of SkyBaron, and delete his own sh file (to avoid decreased/missing sounds)

All is fine and smooth

I have slightly increased torpedoes explosion power - were 60% of stock, I did 65% of stock.. just remove folder Library if you don't like this change..

Have to test more before adding, because i see strange things...
Torpedos seems to have way too much power, even without library folder
Sometimes boats are jumping at first hit, and/or brake instantaneously in many parts
My old style explosion seems to be affected too, because i see holywood fireworks back...

If you have removed folder Library then there is only zones.cfg.. I can't imagine how this file could cause such damage to your list

[Fifi]

I agree, that's VERY strange
That's why i've to test more

Just figured out why!
For the tests, i didn't keep AST V2 in my list, and i replaced it by yours...so when i deleted the library folder, didn't have a zon file anymore
This time i've activated your mod (without library folder ) just after original AST V2 and all is fine again, and with AI crew damage control enabled in patch
Pffff

Let me show you a couple of things in Pics language ..
These are three pics with the torpedoes damage settings (stock/AST-original/my edition) -

Do you see any big difference between my and AST-original files?

These are two pics with the zones.cfg files (AST-original/my edition) -

/

As you can see, whole difference in the lines - Critic Flotation.. these lines were edited as in zones.cfg of TDW's patcher which was made for better compatibility with the AI Crew Damage Control Patch..

Thats all

[Fifi]

^^^^Clear enough!

Corrected order in post 1 for Mighty Fine Crew Mod and MCCD in regard of Stormys DBSM sound mod

Added the best background mod for SH5 main screen (historical video) and loading menu sound:
- Wordeees' Actual Footage Menu

It's an old mod, but fantastic

EDIT: new link on my mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?396w45eeuube7nb
