I just killed Hood, first 3 hits to criple her, then with a forth hit under the bow turrets: Ka-Boooooom and all that floating stuff

I'm wondering if the Hood shot any red flares? If so, how many?

Off topic also; If you want Monolith i can send it to you. Just add your words to it and enjoy!

I was a little worried that it wouldn't shoot any flares. Now my worries can be put aside! Thanks!

@Racerboy

Flares don't always shoot.

This ship the flare shot deep into the water? I don't understand why.

This one shot normally.

I Hope this helps.:hmm:

Doh I didn't see the update download. Nevermind then!

Ya I saw it as you posted. I corrected myself. Thanks.

You see I have to learn to go back to the last post I read and then continue to read to the current final post. But I like doing things reverse.

If you ever doubt which version is the latest, and if you're using it or not, check back to post #1 of this thread. It will always contain the latest version.
Also in the revision list you can read about what was fixed/added/changed in revisions after whatever version you're using. You can also consult the included txt file with the mod to get this information.

That is correct! There is a possibility that the ship won't shoot one...

Just one question: does these ships should "smoking" when stationary?
(the shot was taken in Lorient with version 2.02):

Hi Racerboy,

First of all thanks for this great add on for Sh3!
I like much eye candy and effects...adds imersion and the game becomes more fun and less boring (SH3 is a tooooo long game ).

Some feed back...
Two things that i don't liked (it's only my taste, not a criticism , ok? ): smoke from ships are too "light" and slim sometimes. And I also prefer the stock depth charge splash detonation above water. That is ok, I already changed these two textures in my installation and all goes well.

But...when I was looking for the above water depth charge detonation splash I opened your materials.dat with the TT tools (the one that we use to look at the textures inside .dat files) and noticed that several textures are now just a small square of a tiny gray/white without alpha channel. Then I just used the old stock textures for the depth charge splashes and the effects becomes good (better) than the one using your materials.dat (version 2.01).
Well, to finish: could be this an error with the textures on your file or I'm missing something??:hmm:

Regards,

Rubini.
