Thanks for this mod. Just one thing...Can You upload it somewhere else, not only Rapidshare ?

- F4U-1_Corsair - 10.01.2009

dfrog, you just have to wait about 30 secs at the most to start download.

Cheers!

Which one is real looking wakes or no wakes which one do you all use. :o

- Guest - 13.01.2009

Well, i would guess that most are using the wake - you can at least see the torpedo going thru the water from the air - which is prob'ly more realistic - or use the no wake version, which basically makes the torpedo invisible.... 8)

Also, thanks for the vid. It doesn't corrispond with reports of what torpedos looked like elsewhere, but there is an explaination that makes sense.

During the pearl harbour raid the torpedos carried by the B5N's were modified to travel just below the surface, rather than at depth. At that shallow depth, the bubbles would be about the same as when they were realeased, thousands of little milimeter sized bubbles. Torpedos running at normal depth, like they did elsewhere in the war were deep enough that the bubbles would begin to join together, forming fewer, larger bubbles, giving a more noticable effect when they hit the surface.

lastly, the wakes were experianced by all torpedos when running very close to the surface. Electric torpedos were simply much slower, so they produced a much less noticable wake. I still think that the wakes used by the game are far to noticable though, even for torpedoes on the surface.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, it is appreciated and welcomed.

Hi!

I hope and wait for the third mod but only for make the pedant the wake of a ship , torpedo or any other kind of object moving on the sea surface isn't at 45

Work on the alternate wake continues, but is being delayed.

in the meantime, I wanted to show that the no wake torpedo is visible up to about 2000m

note that due to low image detail, it is far more visible in game than in this screenshot.

really, they both are. Torpedos running near the surface produced a visible wake, whereas those running deep, often would leave a virtually invisible wake, if any at all.

Personally, I use the No wake mod though.

Is there an alternate download to Rapidsuck please? I'm certainly looking forward to this but Rapidshare keeps saying I already have a download running!

rapidshare is not cooperating - csvousden - 13.01.2009

I too am unable to get rapidshare to let me download this and it does look good!

I would be grateful for it.
