Hi everyone,

My problem is that i don't have the 3D damage model, the torpedo (or the cannon) hit end i see nothing (no hole or damage) on the boat. I don't understant that because my setting are hight (res. 1280*1024, ship 3D damage the slide bar is far right and 100% realism). My pc: intel 4.3 ghz, 2 gig ram, geforce 7900 gt/gto and the game is patch to 1.3.

Please help me with this problem.

Thx in advance.

Welcome aboard!

Are you running any mods? The damage graphic is displayed off of the actual damage (and the damage radius) a torp or shell does. So if your shots are "prematures but hits" - then little or no damage is applied to the target. Shells are not real powerful to start with - and some mods drop the power as well. Also note that not every hit will create the damage graphic. The premature hit is the biggest culprit however.

Hi CaptainHaplo,

Firts of all thx for your reply. So the answer of your question is no i don't have any mod install. The game is intall strait out of the box plus the patch. And for the second question my hit from the torpedo are not premature explosion but insted a direct hit on the hull ( 90 degre angle) so again i don't understant why i do not see any damage. it's to bad because i really enjoy the game and i want to see all the eye candy to maximize the experience

The realism has nothing to do with what the game looks like (3D rendering). It's all from the graphic options.

Hello everyone again!

I have a little update on my problem so far. I manage to solve 50 % of the problem. You have to go in this folder: my document/sh4/data/cfg/GFXSetting.cfg and change Ship3DDamage=2 (for me) to Ship3DDamage=3. This time i can see a 3D damage when i hit the boat with a torpedo.

But when i whatch my replay i can't see the same damage !?. If anyone know why please anwser me.
