Default Some Fun

I was playing around using Multy SH4 and setup a stock 1.5 with some much needed Mods to make it playable. I find Stock to be a blast, the sheer number of convoy’s is crazy to say the least but fun when you don’t want to search for vessels and convoy’s and want easy turkey shoots, add to that a wrong Mod setup and you find some weird thing happening in the game.


Altho the game crashed on me, I encountered some fun... euhm... anomalies

Once I encountered a small convoy consisting of 2 DD’s and a passenger liner in the Celebes sea, as I was still testing the Mod setup I had external view set and zoomed in on the convoy, by the time I got close enough to make out what it was I saw the lead DD zigzagging the way they normally do but it seem to have forgotten it should be doing that in front of the convoy instead of where the passenger liner is. It was ramming the liner port and starboard which in turn made the liner zigzag like crazy. After a while both sank leaving the last DD dead in the water without any purpose.

Other anomaly was when I entered the South China Sea, got a large convoy report heading SSW along the Malaysian coast so I when to investigate.
Sonar made contact with lead escort and I did a flyby with the external cam.
The convoy consisted of 3 lines which held 17 vessels per line. Scary part was those 51 ships were destroyers… all of them!
I decided to attack the second vessel in the first lane and fired all 4 fish at it to see if they would react to a attack, they did but the game crashed before any could get close to my position.
It’s a shame it crashed, I would have loved to see the massive search and crazy depth charge runs. Not to mention the number of vessels in a very, very small area depth charging me.


I’m setting up a new Mod list for Stock and hope it will take:
_ GFO 1.1
_ Compass Mod
_ Extra allied Naval Bases for stock and UBM v3.0
_ TDW Ship_Plane_Fire_damage v1.3
_ Webster's Eliminate floating plankton
_ OTC for 1.5
_ OTC realistic Scope for 8 to 5 ratio
_ ISE v3
_ ISE New cloudes + waves
_ Better sand
_ Crew Rank fix
_ Nav. map make over v2.1
_ New orders bar menu
_ 3000yrd bearing tool (1440x)
_ TMO smoke Mod (know this to be working with stock)
_ LST TMO v2 (know this to be working with stock)
_ Bigger Better Protractors
_ Webster improved US torpedo v1
