REL- Additional Visual nodes for GWX - Page 3

Ducimus · 03-01-07, 01:45 AM

new version up. Added F_visual node with 25K max distance to battleships, battlecruisers and the like for those super cool naval engagements.

If you suddenly find yourself being shelled with no ship in sight, it will be one of these bad boys.

Waiting and thanks Ducimus.

Lanzfeld · 03-02-07, 12:18 AM

Well???

I guess I'll try tomorrow.

Ducimus · 03-02-07, 01:55 AM

What exactly we're you waiting for? The file was posted yesterday. (twice yesterday acutally

)

Just had that experience, motoring along minding my own business when next second, the wee submarine turns red and all the compartments turn yellow. Before I could press a button, the death screen appears.
Interestingly, the death screen shows a destroyer right next to me ?!

Ducimus · 03-02-07, 03:54 AM

Using this mod?

It might be possible i goofed and accidently assigned the F_visual to a destroyer or destroyer escort, but i could swear that i was careful to avoid that.

The Munster · 03-02-07, 03:07 PM

Yeah,

It happened so fast that I can't even tell you what destroyer it was

.

Ducimus · 03-02-07, 03:38 PM

Well i see one goof i made. Orginally the F_visual was supposed to be for fast attack boats. Elco's and the like. Looks like i forgot to remove those entries when i reassigned that node to capital ships.

Unfotunatly im out of time and have to leave for work. SO i wont be able to post a fix until late tonight.

If your impatient and want to fix it yourself, go through the sea directory and for every directory which does NOT start with NBB, NBC, NCA, look at the SNS file. If it SNS file contains F_visual, delete that directory.

Would this affect tonnage ? I've just sunk two ships, managed to escape from a Flower, surfaced then saved/exited and no tonnage or ships sunk on summary screen ?!
[Map shows the sunken ship icons, one in red and one in grey].

Will do the directory thing in the morning.
Good night zzzz

Ducimus · 03-02-07, 06:40 PM

No, wont effect tonnage. This deals with their sensors, nothing else. Infact, while i woudllnt do it deliberatlly, i think you can even get away with enabeling/disabeling this mod mid patrol - but i wouldnt recommend it.

Lanzfeld · 03-02-07, 06:41 PM

Could someone please post a "tweeked" Sh-3 Commander file to use with this new NYGM/GWX visual file so we can still use SH-3 Commander?

I'm not too good at those things.

Thanks.

Ducimus · 03-02-07, 06:43 PM

I'll include one tonight when i post an update.

Lanzfeld · 03-02-07, 06:47 PM

Thanks Ducimus. So to recap...we will only lose the random thermal layers and that is all?

Also....To Kpt. Lehmann,

What do you think of this mod? I would just like your opinion. Do you think that maybe the merchants see to well in GWX 1.02 and it makes nighttime surface attacks to hard in 1940?

Wilcke · 03-02-07, 06:49 PM

Great work guys, great work, finishing up a short patrol and will give the SH3 compatible version a try!

Ducimus · 03-02-07, 07:04 PM

edit:
yeah, all you lose is thermal layers.

He'll probably tell you not to use it

Dont expect any GWX dev team support for anything i do - especially if it uses something from NYGM. Use anything i post at your own descretion, and complain to me if it breaks something.
