A 37mm on a TypeIID??????

KLCARROLL · 12-21-07, 12:16 PM

Hi!

I am a confirmed TypeIID fanatic: ....That probably calls my sanity into question, …but, ….whatever!

There is one change I would like to implement: ….I want to replace the foredeck 20mm with a single 37mm. (Not too far-fetched, ….even though it was never actually done in real life.)

I have tried and tried, …..but I have so far been unsuccessful in re-assigning that “hardpoint” from “A01” to “S01”.

Is this possible????

We'll take a look, to make it work it involves some changes to the basic,cfg file, and I'm not familiar with it, when I can contact the team members with experience on it I'm sure we can work out a solution.

I am fairly certain I did this once either a 37 or an 88 just in testing
early on IIRC I succeeded after a fashion using just cfg changes.

IIRC I did both but I think the 88mm showed up without sights
like when you mount a second deckgun.

Looks like you got competition in the Uber-ed boat field!

Except first time he fires the 37, his boat rolls over.

Mounted it is in this pic but connected or manned it is not. that will
take a little time and a consultation. as its a bit of a busy time of year
no eta other than a few days for a report.

Wow!!

interesting replace the 88/ 105 mm gun in large boats with a 37 dual AA gun :hmm:

Mush Martin · 12-23-07, 01:36 PM

ahh been there done it......

then next you know its the fully automatic 88mm with a thousand round clip
( which for the record is fun as hell if a bit shortlived)

how about the single shot one for realism..so it's like a deck gun instead of a death cannon...
