Will be interesting to test if it's possible to do with just .sim file or i'll have to re-import the 3d model. Thanks for the advice

I think adjusting sim file properties could be enough, but finding the right settings could demonstrate a bit tricky. Probably the best way to do it, is by moving model coordinates so to make boats waterline closer to the horizontal plane (y=0), and then to fine tune the draft through sim file

that is pretty much how it is already. Will have to play with the sim file.

If you used gunboat's sim file settings as base for your wooden boats, the "problem" is likely that

P.S: try using the same settings as iambecomelife's wooden boats mod. I hope he won't mind if you steal his numbers

I'll see what is the difference.

I have adjusted the original numbers, so it's not exactly a rubber-boat, believe me :P

Is there a lag or freeze when boat is destroyed and the lifeboats are ejected? This goes for the other lifeboat mod, I am using both. I get a hick-up when a boat gets destroyed.

Yes, yes there is a lag hitch.
Before the starshell fix I used to cross my fingers there would be no CTD with the old starshell lag and the boats popping out at once. Never did crash but playing SH5 you get used to clenching your teeth at every hitch expecting it to.

Is this the Star Shell patch you are talking about or some other mod that has fix or in the generic patcher?

The star shells are what are causing the main stutter, every time one goes of and stutters, my heart stops in perpetration for a CTD.
