It might be totally unimportant, but I made a poll long time ago, asking if people will download a 100MB+ mod, or not, beacuse of the size. It was something like 100:5 for yes... Personally, I don't bother to download scenarios without units, graphics etc. so I assume that bigger download may actually make more people play it

hehe, I nnow why because LOTM is likely going to be 100MB or more. I have DSL, so I dont care aboyut uploading it. But I agree that more people dL bigger files, though it declines after a while.

Still, its an interesting Idea concernig BB ships. I may test it sometime later.

Torpedoboat=destroyer, pretty much - definitively no submersion capability! Certainly one could sink a dread, but most of the time it would be blasted to pieces 'fore it ever got within torpedo range.

The thing about torpedo boats, especially in WW1 was that when we think of torpedos, we think of WW2 (you hear a lot about them in the battles around Guadalcanal). Torpedos in WW1 are a lot crappier, especially in terms of range and speed compared to WW2 torpedos.

There is only one case that I know of (off the top of my head) where a torpedo sank a dreadnaught and that was one of the AH dreadnaughts and I think it was sitting in harbor at anchor when an Italian torpedo boat showed up. There were several cases of capital ships being torpedoed, but all those cases, the attacker was very close (Most famous case was probably U9 sinking the three obsolete Brit armored cruisers).

Torpedo boats for now are not in 1.0. But they will almost certainly reach 1.1 if requested. I am awaiting TF's return PM.

 

[civilleader]

No don't put pontoon boats!

 

[Sarevok]

I said torpedo boats, not pontoon boats.

 

[The Last Conformist]

Don't see any need for a separate torpedoboat unit.

 

[Sarevok]

oh, ok.

Still no news from TF...

Well I was actually refering to my wh-mod which is 130 MB now, and the new version will be over 200 MB Sorry for threadjacking

 

[Sarevok]

ahh its ok. is it a good mod?

at this rate, TGW will be up tommorow because TF still hasent even given me my temporary ID yet to get it up.

 

[Sarevok]

Yes, ready on the 24th as promised, but released on the 25th as I have yet to have the URL's givent to me by TF.

 

[embryodead]

Is it good? Well, yes of course, I can't say it's bad since I made it You check its' thread to see peoples' reaction. I'm gonna try TGW you know and yep, uploading through temp account takes 2-3 days, normal.

 

[Sarevok]

Its ready, go into Created scenario's

 

[Sarevok]

I thank all who have helped with this scenario. It is now up and running in Created scenarios. once again, thank you for all your help!

 

[Volum]

No problem, thank you very much for letting me play
At last theres a scenario where i cant say there was nothing i could have done.

It used to say in your SIG that you where working on some unnamed project.
Well if you ever need a BETA tester........
