Lifeboat mod?

Flopper · 02-23-10, 12:55 PM

I'm using lifeboats&debris_v4

OK thanks I found the lifeboats&debris v4. Is that the latest version of it? I can't wait to have lifeboats in my game!

This works with GWX, right?

Right. But it's bugged a bit. I mean, lifeboats in v4.0 have some velocity, and because of that, they "jump" unnaturaly on high waves.

I would like to recommend v3B. Only difference, comparing with 4.0 is these lifeboats are not moving, and acting normaly even at stormy weather.

Ultimately, it's Your choice.

I think I'd rather them float right and not move. They are in shock and not yet rowing.

Have you sailed close to them yet to hear them shouting for help? Always quite satisfying....

There is an addon to the mod with rowers for the lifeboats.

Here's a nice shot of a 10,000 tonner I sunk in the strait of Dover near the start of my patrol today. You can see one of the lifeboats and the detail in it quite well. JSGME reports it as Lifeboats&Debris_v4

I also notice that there is something called:

"Webster's Real Lifeboats Fix for v1.4 and v1.5: Webster's Real Lifeboats Fix for v1.4 and v1.5"

Is this meant to go with V4 or V3?
