Re: Coming soon --> VolksMod
Yes, I do use almost the same scaling system, but there are two important things: game-play and realism, and its not easy to make a good hybrid of them.lennis29 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2020 9:22 pmFire Range - for artilleryVintage wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2020 8:15 pm There's much depend of ballistics and aiming devices of particular models, so not any gun may serve as long-ranged artillery. I had an idea to give 75mm+ AT guns range = 1 but this leads to same setting for tanks and if I give it to the tanks this will ruin a simulation of counter-course combats: having range = 1 (or even more 2) they can simply shoot each over from distance without getting immediate "feedback" from the opponents... so its not easy to adjust all this stuff properly...
0-4.999m = 1
5.000-9.999m = 2
10.000-14.999m = 3
15.000-19.999m = 4
20.000-24.999m = 5
25.000m and higher = 6
This is created by PHCAS
I work more or less with those parameters.
So, lets take a look at few examples:
1) BM-31 Andryusha had fire range below 5km, and if I give it in-game r=1 this will make such expensive unit almost useless

2) 7.5cm Pak 40 had fire range up to 8km, but elevation angle only up to 22 degrees, so it cant shot through / over the cities, forests, hill

These things have to be reconciled somehow, but of course any mod-maker do this its on way

I'm sure I can find a use for the German 7TP. Nicoe one.

Re: Coming soon --> VolksMod
For my mod, I devised a kind of "logarithmical" artillery range table, with range segments proportions increasing for the longer ranges , in order to include very long range units with a reasonable in-game map range.
Artillery Range Table
0-4000 m 1 hex
4000-10000 m 2 hexes (+ 6000 m)
10000-18000 m 3 hexes (+ 8000 m)
18000-30000 m 4 hexes (+ 12000 m)
30000-45000 m 5 hexes (+ 15000 m)
45000-65000 m 6 hexes (+ 20000 m)
65000+ m 7 hexes (+ 25000 m)
With this system, I can give big pieces of ordnance a "game compatible" range. For example it would not work well for game mechanics to give a coast bombardment range to battleships of, say, 10 hexes... (the bigger battleship guns could reach fixed land targets some 35 km away. with acceptable accuracy, the effective range was lesser when firing to mobile naval targets).

Re: Coming soon --> VolksMod
Greetings, I am working on what I think will be the last update.
Final changes to the Equipment 1942 file.
The game mode totally changes for the Germans and it stops having many benefits.
Some examples.
1942
PzIA - Pz-I Flamm
PzIB - Clase 2 Recon. +1 Spt / +15% Fuel / +1 GD
PzIIB - Option in 1941 (Pz-IIC or PzII Flmm ) but in 1942 Option Update Marder II Prototype.
Pz38t(a) - +1 spt Option update Marder III Prototype until July 1942

Re: Coming soon --> VolksMod
An improved idea of deducter MOD, I think I can help many with their GC MODs.
- they have the DLC folder / inside they have folders GC39 to GC45
- inside each GC39 to 45 folder, it has a * DATA * subfolder and inside DATA it has the Equipement file.
- So I can have a different Equipment in each GC, so I can change the values as the war progresses.
-Now, I am only going to use 2 equipment, the normal one and the one that I am going to load in 1942, but this equipment that goes in the DATA folder of 1942, must be copied in all the other GC1942-43, GC43, GC44 and so on. in turn.
- As I am using a translator, I do not know how you will see my idea explained in your language.
- Then in the GC42 folder, File equipment, what I do is for example with the unit (Panzer IIB I want to take it to MarderII) because I proceed to create a switchable unit with the name of (prototype), with the MarderII data.
(ID 1721) - Pz 38 (t) A ----- (** Multipurpose 1703 **) Non-returnable change.
(ID 1703) - PzJ-III Prototype then the Pz38 merges into the marder but cannot return.
- Sorry if it was not understood well, but more or less you take the idea or hope that the MOD is almost finished.

I am thinking of adding the german_7TP tank, on the Warsaw stage, in one of the cities where an artillery is captured, placing a 7TP.
