Default LWAMI 3.11 Released

Download Links:

CADC
Subsim (updated 1904 GMT 26 Jun)

Victorious TAGOS Patch

In this version,

Quote:
New In Version 3.11

*Torpedo base PSLs have been reduced in most cases, especially for modern electric torpedoes.
* The torpedo sound-speed relationship has been steepened--meaning that setting a torpedo below its maximum speed will significantly increase its stealth.
* Passive torpedo seeker performance has been improved, but not to the point that they were at in stock DW. They are now very effective against surface ships--especially combined with the stealth and range benefits of being run slower. Submarines are generally not at risk unless they are very noisy.
* Sonar profiles have been completely redone to make classification easier and more realistic. See section 1.1.4.
* The Kilo-Improved's MGK-400EM (cylindrical and conformal) sonar has been upgraded slightly. This sonar has also been installed on China's Project 877EKM Kilos.
* Mines, other than bottom mines, that did not have a visual signature were given one, which will allow ships and aircraft to spot them on the surface. Aircraft might see them in shallow water if they're close enough.
*Visual sensor performance has been increased so that (in clear weather) it is equivalent to what a human player can achieve at the FFG's lookout station.
*Aircraft now have two visual sensors; one for detecting submerged submarines, another for everything else (without the former's range penalty).
*The MH-60 will now drop sonobuoys when set to the Sonobuoy Search tactic in the mission editor.
* Fixed-wing aircraft will fly into the ground much less often. They will also not attack surface targets with their guns, as that was the cause of their CFITs.
* Lots of new models (including DARPA ACTUV imports!) and platforms!
And we do mean a lot of new models and platforms. TLAM's been keeping me busy.

If anyone's having any problems with the mod, this would be a good place to let us know.

I've run into a problem:

> Using a fresh default v1.04 DW installation.
> Using Mod Enabler that came with LWAMI 3.11 (Generic Mod Enabler v2.6.0 (8 August 2010)), installed to the DW root directory.
> Unzipped all 3.11 mods to the MODS folder in DW directory.
> Initially, just activated only the LWAMI mod itself and the "plain" splash screen.
>Started up DW.

The game CTDs every time it attempts to render the Akula model while scrolling through the ship models on the main menu. Also, the selected mod splash screen isn't showing up. The default splash screen still shows.

As always I made a backup installation of the default DW v1.04 so I went ahead and tried manually installing the mod files without using the mod enabler. Same symptoms occurred.

OK, I have to admit I don't fully understand what OneShot has done with this installer just yet. WTF is a .DS_Store? I have no idea. My best guess is that there may be a missing step, because I don't see anything that runs the .bat files needed to install the graphics and usni and stuff.

So head over to the mods/.../filetools folder and run the .bats there manually. Hopefully that will do the trick.

Appreciate the quick reply.

Manually running the bats seems to have worked so far, as the Kilo and Akula are now rendering in the opening movie and main menu, respectively. No CTDs.

Will delve into the sim and see what happens, but expect things to go smoothly now.

I'll update the instructions accordingly. Thanks for being our guinea pig.

LWAMI is the only mod for me.

It's very well done.

So, am I the only one having this CTD when launching special forces?

Quick question. Is the Victorious fix patch integrated into the mod currently for download from Subsim ? A friend of mine was downloading it and I was wondering wether or not I would need to send it to him.

I don't think it is.

Default DW LWAMI Crash Report

I am playing DW on Windows 10. I am using the fix for DW posted just today for Dangerous Waters and it works well without mods. I activate the LWAMI mod and Dangerous Waters crashes every couple minutes. I have disabled the mod for now and am hoping you will find and fix the error. Thank you.
