I am fairly sure that you will be able use "JD Realistic Depth Charge Damage and Shaking 1.0" or variation of it in your MODs with permission from Author. From past communications, he seems to be a good person.

Standard Barrel:
Explosion_Impulse 4000
range 200

Other Barrel:
Explosion_Impulse 5000
range 225

I sent a email to Author this morning requesting permission to post his MOD here at SubSim.com

The problem with the values he uses is the Impulse value. If the DC explodes too close to sub or ship it can cause the ship/sub to be blown clear into the air. Very unrealistic

in SHIII/4 yes but not in SH5. The action/reaction from these values are different in SH5.
This sounds bad but it isn't. By requiring greater value for effect, that allow for far more control of what is happening.

Ducimus has far more knowlege about configuring Depth Charges then I do. Heck just about anyone has more knowlege on it then I do. I just looked at it for the first time the other day. I was looking for Animation and Sound triggers.

BTW, I "think" these triggers on located in the Baza files.

The values for Impulse will blow a ship sky high, trust me. Even an impulse of 1500 will blow a PT Boat (the one I've been working on) to be blown sky high by a torpedo blast. Torpedo blast, DC, it doesn't matter they all have an impulse value.

The impulse values I posted were from that MOD and that is what I am using. I am not blown out of the water but my boat is moved around a bit but I would expect that, if a DC goes on near my boat.
When depth charge explodes close and above my boat I am pushed down about 5-10 meters in about 1 minute for 1 Depth Charge. That is not to far off being realistic.

Funny.....
I hit a Ship lastnight with two fish.
First was normal impact and explosion, but second hit broke the ship in half, and lifted the aft section about twenty feet into the air.
It remained there, hanging in mid air for about thirty seconds and then slowly settled into the water. ( I Had time to get Pics..lol )

Also....
The texture corruption thingy that I have seen others complain of has been sporatic with me.
Its not always there... in fact is pretty infrequent.
But I dont know how to get rid of it.
Sometimes it goes away by restarts.... other times I have to start a new campaign !

Any Thoughts.........

Ship lifting out of water happens in Stock Game sometimes without any MODs installed. Maybe Ubi was working on some Critical Hit effect they never finished.

The graphics issue seen in your link are cause by User Error editng the TheDrakWraithUserOptions.py file. Conflicting Setting, Wrong Settings or Type-O. I know this because I have seen this many times myself.
