AA Gun Glitch

Dark_Raevin · 12-16-07, 11:16 AM

Yes, I have a Gato class sub. I would let my gunners shoot the planes down like I did in SH3, but they are soooo inaccurate. I was thinking of updating to 1.4, but I can't find a no-dvd fix for 1.4, (hate using the original dvd in my drive).
I will search for the tub fix.....

Aside from the graphical issue, I find that the forward AA gun on ships so equipped does not traverse as far as one might expect. There seems to be an artificial (ie, in game) limiter that restricts the gun to a 45 degree (or so) horizontal arc. Or at least that's how it appears to me.

Has anyone else noticed this (you can see it in TM's artillery training mission), and is there a way to fix it?

Aren't you using patch 1.3? The DVD is not required to use since this patch and remains not to be used in patch 1.4. Unless of course you want to delete SH4 off your HD and install a clean SH4 then you need the disc, but surely a one time DVD use in the PC DVD tray will not kill you.

Sounds like a pirated version......

"That wall went away for me with the v1.4 patch, have you loaded that yet?"

Apparently you have the super secret prestige gold version of the 1.4 patch.

As for MY 1.4 patch version in an un-modded version of the game, blocking still occures on the gato at certain angles.
