Dual exhaust for subs - Page 3

TheDarkWraith · 07-12-07, 12:56 AM

I've been toying with making a dual exhaust VIIb and have finally succeeded. I need some information on where they are located and how to locate them (how to calculate the values in hex) so I can make it correct. The sub has two diesels and thus should have two exhausts correct? Or did they combine the exhausts from both diesels on the VIIb to a common header? I will be able to do this for all subs and basically anything else for that matter. Here are some screenshots of it currently:

Once I learn how the hex values are calculated I'll post updated screenshots. I just used values from the props x,y, and z locations currently and took the XY degrees rotation from Privateer's 9d2 exhaust mod to make the right exhaust exit at 90 degrees.

How is the AI ships funnel smoke controlled? If they are at all stop they produce no smoke, if they are steaming then they produce smoke. How is this done or controlled? If someone knows the answer then I save myself digging through the hex files trying to figure this out.
Here's an even better question: How is the sub's wake controlled? The faster you go the more wake you have..is this a function of EOT or speed or ?? Where is it at in the hex files? Eventually I want the smoke being produced by my dual exhaust mod to be dependant upon something like the sub's wake does.
My next venture is to place smoke on the snorkel (diesel(s) have to exhaust somehow when submerged running on the snorkel!), won't be hard to do but I have to look into some things first........
