[REL] Sub Exhaust for SH5

panosrxo · 05-18-10, 08:29 AM

Any updates on this??
It work fine for me. One minor problem though. I have no smoke when moving backwards.

PS: How do you edit fx files?

not yet. Been very busy with the UIs mod that I haven't had time to work on anything else.
You are correct, there is no smoke when moving backwards. I haven't quite figured out how to do it correctly yet.
fx files require the wonderful tool the hex editor

Nice to know..Will try opening them.

More great work, thank you.

A perfect addition. Many thanks!

I stand corrected.

All this time I thought it was only the Vessiko that had that inverted "Y" pipe in the engine room.

I would think for an operational boat the Germans would put two separate exhaust pipes and mufflers.

But, I just got done researching this and sure enough the Type II, had the same exhaust layout as the Vessiko.

Well, as they say, you learn something new everyday.

Would it be possible to get the smoke to rise a bit into the air instead of just laying on the ocean? Basically like the diesel powered escorts' smoke.

Can you link it to engine RPM, instead of speed?

No. there is no controller that 'controls' FPGs and PGs by RPM. There is a controller that controls them via speed though and that's the one I use.

Is that new for SH5?

nope. Almost same controller from SH3 and SH4.

Oh, I've done some work with the particle generators and I never noticed that you could control the particles by the speed of the sub - which setting is it?
