Flares in SH3 GWX

This adds damage effects from SH4 to SH3, including distress flares. The only problem is they don't fire when the ship is hit, but when it sinks.

Many thanks! Only a question: I have the Rbs GWX 30 71 rb fixed mod installed, buy I didn´t see flares in the ships. Is the same version? This 204f1 version of SH4 effects is better than the 30-71?

Regards!

No, 30-71 is newer, larger and better. I linked to the only one we have here at Subsim.

I too use 30-71, and I see flares all the time. As I said, it's annoying because they don't launch until the ship actually slips beneath the waves.

OK, but with 30-71, I don´t see flares...It seems some incompatibility between mods...

Many thanks.

I've been playing LSH v5 just recently and it has ship horns and flares that are launched when ships are under attack, I can't say I remember ever hearing ship horns with GWX but the SH4 effects for SH3 does add flares on sinking (as well as a load of other brillant effects).

It would be great to have the LSH v5 flares and horn mod for GWX.

Yes, I have LSH3 in other SH3 installation and the effects are great.

The problem is the "sh3.dl" file. It is overwrited by a variety of mods. Because I use Fm Interior with others mods and the Aces Multimod compatibility, "LifeBoats&Debris" must remain before Aces MC, but SH4 Effects must remain before LifeBoats and after those mods, the Aces MC, overwrites all. Aces MC cancel my SH4 effects...

I´ll try the horn and flares mod from LSH3 in the installation of GWX...

Regards.

Hi Fitzcarraldo

I added the SH4 effects after Aces Compatibility mod and they worked great, I'm sure there are some problem but I've not come across them yet.

Check out my mod list on the Oversized Emblems thread.
