[REL] Brighter torpedo wakes

briny_norman · 04-07-07, 09:00 AM

It's a very simple mod - just made the torpedo wakes brighter to make them easier to follow and spot with the external camera.
Nvdrifter is working on a more advanced mod I think, so this is just to fill the hole untill he finishes.

Here's the file:

Just dump it in your sh4/data/misc folder.
Remember to back up the original file first.

EDIT: The mod is now JGME ready.

Here's a couple of screenshots to demonstrate the difference.

The old wake:

And the new one:

Great job briny_norman. Thank you for this release.

I have been working on an SH4 torpedo wake mod, but unfortunately the dev team actually re-hardcoded important parts of the SH4 torpedo.dat file.

I can increase the lengths still, but there are other problems that I can't fix this time around... such as the total length of wake showing instantly (no timer), and the curved edges cannot be smoothed (they are blocky). I will still try to release a version, but sadly it won't be as good as my SH3 torp wake mod.

can it be made jgme ready ?

briny_norman · 04-07-07, 09:48 AM

Sorry to hear about the hardcoded dat file, Nvdrifter. But I'll be looking forward to your mod anyway. Just do your best!

Of course, CyberOps, I should have made it JGME ready from the start. It is now corrected.

Enjoy!

Sorry, is there a new link for d/l, the posted one has had it's source removed?

Thanks!

briny_norman · 04-07-07, 01:18 PM

Sorry, don't know what was wrong with the link, but I've re-upped the file and the link is working now (for me at least).
Let me know if there are any more problems.

THANK YOU!!!

Was able to find and follow a stern fired Torp all the way to this charging Matsuki's bow shot - that was impossible before your mod!

I really enjoy this one.

Thanks

Thanks, downloading now!

Question for the smart guys: Is there any relation to firing the torpedoes, specifically the wakes, and an escort being able to detect you and locate the firing point?

Thanks...

Is rapidshare crap or is it me? I have never been able to d/l anything from there.
Always give download session invalid.

Is this hosted anywhere else?
