That was a weird question to ask, sorry, I am just very interested in peoples profiles and like to know where  they come from.

 

I understand, sometimes I also like to know more about other Forum members 🙂

 

Regarding my Avatar picture, yes, that's me ... the original photo is this one:

taken during a car trip I made with my wife to Patagonia .. here I'm near Puerto Natales and my car is on the cargo deck of the ship. We drove almost 10,000 kilometers during that trip over 30 days, one of the nicest vacations that I've had. 😇

 

Cheers.

Wow 10000 km! You went far I am amazed.   I just suddenly got very interested in your avatar.

I am having  some trouble trying to get this AI plane to bomb the Yamato. Even setting it as a task isn't working am I doing something wrong or Am i not giving the AI's a chance to chose when to attack because I am giving enough time for the Ai to attack but the plane just comes around and then starts flying off again. Any tips/ helpful information about what I am doing wrong? I will start a new topic if nobody knows.

No, sorry, I usually use the ships as targets for myself, not for the AI, so I have not any experience on that situation.

I have found kind of  a way to fix the Yamato damage model problem by setting it to immortal  but that's no fun since  then the Yamato never gets sunk and then the battle will last forever until the game crashes LOL, But at least I can laugh my head off watching all the ships sink to the YAMATO LOL!

I really appreciate the work done on those WWII assets. It is sorely missed in the base game. The 3D models I tested are also stunning and very high quality.

 

Bug report: the Gneisenau & Scharnhorst are not attacked by AI planes when those planes are set to "attack group", the group consisting of the battleship + Schnellboats. They will attack all escorts then RTB once the escorts are sunk. Not a single bullet/rocket/bomb was fired by 3 AI squadrons at the battleships during multiple tries ; they don't actually see it as a target. Tried with AI P51 and Spitfires.

Regarding Yamato ... and let me add a disclaimer here: Not really knowing what I'm talking about, but:

 

If you look at the lua files of Yamato and Musashi, thats bb_Yamato.lua and bb_Musashi.lua,

 

in line 29:

GT.life = 400

... while other battleships, like Iowa or also Bismarck have there (e.g. iowa.lua, line 38):

GT.life = 6000

😎

 

My guess would be this are the "Life points" of the ship. The huge discrepancy could explain why Iowa always beats Yamato. 🙂
 

@chompsky: Just for playing around, i'd replace the 400 in the bb_Yamato.lua with ... 7000 ... restart DCS and try what happens in your mission.🙂

Maybe someone could comment who has more knowledge about these model descriptions?

 

A little below, there is also a GT.DM list, which seems to describe a more detailed damage model of parts of the ships. Also here, the area_life fields are generally smaller for Yamato than for Iowa, but it's kind of less obvious.

Yes correct  I am just gonna go check on the base game  052c destroyers and se if they have GT.life = 3200 cuase that's how much hp they have when I looked up on the wiki and my guess was the GT.life so I am now more convinced that this wont break the mod so thanks.

nevermind coundn't find the 052c destroyers but found that the nimitizts has 3100 hp so I  will edited the gt.life and see what it does for the yamato.

I am 100% sure it worked gonna do the same for the musashi. 😄 but even stronger 10000000 hp LOL

however it actually seems that the iowa dousnt get damaged and the cannon fire just goes threw it.

which is kinda annoying since that's something I might not be able to fix.

unfortunately it kinda just turned it into a lag monster LOL

dcs running at 7603mbs

So 10000hp or is that a little to much for musashi?

The Iowa  is immortal the bullets just pass straight through it now the yamatos are gonna get sunk this is why the Iowa always kept winning in a battle. plz fix

Has anyone else had an issue with the Z39 mod not allowing DCS 2.7 to launch? I've tried all the other WW2 ship mods and soon as I add the Z39 DCS fails to load. 

 

It's a standard problem at the moment since Hawkeye added working torpedoes - the non-torpedo version worked fine - waiting for a fix - see previous posts

Been trying for two days now to get the Bismarck v1.5 version to work in 2.7.1.  Can see it in the Encyclopedia, but will not come up in any map, in any time frame.  Tried using OVGME, doesn't work.  Anyone else had issues and managed to get her working?  Much Appreciated if anyone can help.

I have it working, but mine does not have a version number, it's the one shared by @Hawkeye60 ... the readme says:

 

"From the Master himself, comes this incredible fleet of German warships! Merci My friend! Grazi!

Inside, Be amazed by......

DKM Admiral Hipper

DKM Admiral Scheer

DKM Bismarck

DKM Blucher

DKM  Gneisenau

DKM Prinz Eugen

DKM Scharnhorst

DKM Tirpiz

DKM_Z39"

 

The Z39 destroyer does not work, so I disabled it on my copy of the Mod, the remaining ships seem to work well, but I don't use them for ship-to-ship combat .. instead they are targets for my P-47 bombs 🙂

Thank you @Hawkeye60 👍 and his friends.

Good day to all.

 

To address all concerns,

 

All these mods have not been abandoned.

Many need fixes and up-dates since they were released.

 

All will be looked at and up-dated as needed.

 

At present, My focus is on the Pacific Japan and US fleets and ai  aircraft.

 

Once released, all others will get attention.

 

Stay tuned!

 

The Japs are coming!

 

We better be ready!

With Marianas allegedly looming close it makes sense, until the Corsair comes out that will at least allow for P-51, P-47, and Tomcat owners to go sock it to the IJN in the meantime!
