deck gun - Page 2

nozaurio · 01-07-11, 09:24 PM

Sorry if I leave the thread, although it is an addition to the realism of the deck gun, this is the sound of cannon firing, there is an excellent mod installed, the name is M1 Thompson's Realism sound mod v.1.0, it is a file named cannon.wav . but the install is still operating the original game.

Anyone know why this happens?

I appreciate any help I can give ...

Greetings

It's an old thread, I know, but the deck gun still sucks! And by that I mean in a twisted way that it is too powerful. You can man it and use it in a storm and the bouncing of the sub doesn't affect it's aiming, it is somehow balanced and fixed to horizon. When you compare viewing throug UZO and deck gun in a storm, you notice the difference. Current deck gun strenght is probably the most unrealistic factor in SH 5 and needs to be fixed.

Please could somebody look into this, I tried but got nowhere. In previous SH games this was handled with stormconditions parameter in the cfg-file: StormConditions=9,0.4;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]. Sadly this doesn't work in SH 5. No effect what so ever.

Now the only time that the crew abandons the deck gun is when the warning icon "submerged" flashes for a second in a storm. This is not enough and only happens rarely.

If I'm correct, TDW made the zoom binocular view to deck gun (thanks for that

) so could it be possible that the bouncing effect could be implemented in the deck gun view also? TDW? It would make the aiming more challengin and almost impossible in rough seas.

Ofcourse some will say that just don't use the guns in a storm, but that's not good for me. I'm a weak minded person and do what ever is possible to sink the ships. I need restrictions!
