Cool vid! That Jap sub sure got slammed! Was there a convoy nearby? I noticed lots of radar contacts? I'd have to give chase...

Hiya,
The contacts were mainly merchants dotted around i think I will chase ones in my heading but i kinda get carried away and waste fish before i finish my objectives if i do lol No convoy near the sub or the area as i remember, I had to drop off dingy at kishiwada then come back down the straights of kii suido as i call em, sub was running on surface east to west roughly Took my time and tried to sneek ahead for a decent shot spread I was staggered to see it let alone be able to sink the critter lol (set fish for shallowest running) Was nice to see it go up even though my chrono was off a few seconds Cheers Ciao Def |

Nice shots!
Did he eventually sink in a minute or two? |

I'd also like to know if you got a "burning oil" effect, and when.

Hiya's,
Ducimus, Yeah it sank alright after a few mins, Tell you what, It's hard'ish to get an accurate distance/speed reading with the low profile of a sub, Especially not being familiar with the subs features (hence few secs after chrono expired) The vid i did in 2 parts and part 2 shows the slow sinking (will edit and upload soon) DB, Ahh me shall have a quick squint at it now me old china .................... Seems i get the flaming oil as she just about goes under (as above will post both parts together soon) OK, Here's the 2 parts joined Hope it shows you what you wanted to see DB http://s159.photobucket.com/albums/t...wholevideo.flv Cheers Ciao Have Fun Def Last edited by Defiance; 05-22-08 at 05:06 PM. |

Defiance, I watched the video, and yes, it does show what I wanted to see. Though now that I saw it, I once again hoped that damn oil fire effect could start a little earler, and not when the whole zone that spawns it has been submerged. Maybe I should dig into the zones.cfg file again...? But anyway, I'm rambling here... and in the wrong thread too, I just realized! Sorry Ducimus!

I'm reading "Clear The Bridge" by Richard O'Kane and I'll say this, if you can grab a little time off from your never ending work on TMO it is well worth the read.

I don't think you've been idle (i hope not anyways lol)
Nahh i can't see a creative mind (ok warped, J/K ) as yours being on idle for long Now you've got me hoping for immanent patch/update/new-release Playable/Usable instruments ?? point-n-click = use and maybe watch the mechanics of said instrument, but knowing my warped mind i'm way off the beam lol Have Fun Ciao Def |

I'll post a list of changes in a week or so. Im taking my time with this. Running a patrol, noting what irritates me. Changing/fixing it, running another patrol, doing the same. At this point i think im just trying to see how big of a list of changes i can make
Heres a few screenshots of the super obvious stuff: Note the angle of the dangle on this crash dive Yes, when you click on the colored things in the background.. they make loud noises. |
