Getting Pink because of blind team sailors -.-
OldGrandad replied to Hades_warrior's topic in Archive
Rewrite of thread title to reflect it is the weekend; 'Getting pissed with blind drunk sailors......' -
Apart from the fact the OP asked 21 months ago, he appears long gone......
-
Aslain, FYI Extended Tech Tree is working. Here
-
Just for a heads up on what I have working from the previous update; Minimap with ship names. Black Citadel detection mod Extended chat. Running Lights. Anti Glare. Clear Vision All zoom mods are easily updated (currently using YAZOOM)

Pot calling the kettle black. Learn to accept peoples views and failing to understand why you are not accepted as being correct. High horse, fall off.....

To all those people [edited] about the new IJN DDs...
OldGrandad replied to ZandersMcGrooby's topic in General Discussion
Oh come on! If it was not for those whiney seamen we would not have any entertainment here! Yes, for one i am happy with this, they may not be my 'cup of tea' but as i had already ground this line in effect I have something for nothing. Sure my playstyle 'may' have to adapt on some but otherwise..... bring 'em on! -
Ignore him, he is an old fart** (going by the year in his nick) who moans consistently. Am looking forward to the new arrivals as they give something different, most I am afraid expect things to be better.... ** I can't talk as I am older!
-
Maybe he just hates the name now? Like a few here ground through to the Kagero (50k away from Shima that I care not to get), and would be interested in some honest and constructive feedback from players that are trying the new line today. Like many, at work now, but still want as much info as I can get!

As an asthmatic, I want to put in a complaint to all who post without punctuation and correct composition. I was very thankful I had my inhaler at hand after attempting to read your prose without taking a breath. Can we have a forum for those that want to write incoherently, without any point, to whine or more importantly like the OP without PUNCTUATION! (takes another deep breath).
-
Must be factual. I updated my NA client and received just over 2 million (rest must have been compensation for the IJN DD's).
-
Yes, they are in front of us timewise.
-
FYI - I just had my NA client updated and although still low in the tiers regarding IJN DD's (up to Isokaze), I received 2 million credits. I can cope with that!

First, as our one liner expert has said, you need to create accounts on all regions you wish to play on. Secondly, a little editing needs to be done to your scripts_config.xml file. You don't need to download and to install game client for every region. Do it so: 1. You have to be registerred on server where you want to play2. Switch off WoWs game client3. Go to WoWs game folder and there to res subfolder (for expamle c:\Games\World_of_Warships\res\ )4. Make backup copy of file scripts_config.xml5. Download this file ( scripts_config.zip 566bytes ), unpack it and put it to res subfolder6. Start WoWs game client, choose server where you want play and enjoy Notes: 1. Alternatively you may edit scripts_config.xml file manually by adding next lines (displayed by blue color) to this file <scripts_config.xml checkPing="true" debugInfo="true"> <space>spaces/ocean</space> <offlineModel>PASD010_Fletcher_1942</offlineModel> <player entityType="Avatar" startDirection="1.0 0.0 0.0" startPosition="0.0 0.0 -313.0"/> <cursorScaleSpeed x="40" y="40"/> <server online="true"> <host addr="login.worldofwarships.eu:20020" alias="WoWS EU"/> <host addr="login.worldofwarships.com:20020" alias="WoWS NA"/> <host addr="login.worldofwarships.ru:20020" alias="WoWS RU"/> <host addr="login.worldofwarships.jp:20020" alias="WoWS Asia"/> <login>piksel</login> <password>login1</password> </server> <chat visibleLines="6"/> <writeCombatLog>true</writeCombatLog> <Dock3D>true</Dock3D> <CurseVoice>false</CurseVoice> <scriptProfiler address="0.0.0.0" enabled="true" netSend="false" port="6666"/> <GameParams packed="true"/> <disableTrainingRoom>false</disableTrainingRoom></scripts_config.xml> 2. Please check one more time that: for EU server you wrote .eu domain suffix for NA server you wrote .com domain suffix for RU server you wrote .ru domain suffix for Asia server you wrote .jp domain suffix 3. Do backup of the modified file scripts_config.xml as a new patch may set the game client back to one server only change of client language will modify scripts_config.xml to one server only 4. If you have message about different game versions (client vs. server) then try to connect later. All regional servers are updated at different times. 5. When you choose "Check game integrity" from launcher then launcher will roll-back original scripts_config.xml which don't allow players to connect to other regions. Therefore after checking integrity you have to edit/replace scripts_config.xml again. Copied from this post.

Super Container Loot Thread [ topics merged ]
OldGrandad replied to ThePurpleSmurf's topic in General Discussion
A 'Super Container' is an extra special (and rare) container that can offer some very nice item indeed (as you have found out). Plenty of previous examples can be found in this thread. I have just got my 100th container with which, 4 have been SC's (not had one since the first week!). I choose 'More signals and camouflages' all the time now as I get a mixture of all the things I want, signals and camouflages obviously, but in this selection I have also got port slots, captain reserve slots, free XP and bloke stroking his long lance! Maybe a SC today? hopes........ -

Kamikaze R in the premium shop - That was fast...
OldGrandad replied to Nechrom's topic in General Discussion
FFS. Get p1ssed off with those pointing to premium ships and shouting 'PtW'. It takes a good captain to get the best of these ships not the ships making the best out of the captains. Strangely enough I am equal in 'skill' in both the Minekaze, the Fujin and the Kamikaze R, sure I would like some of that magical fairy 'PtW' dust sprinkled over me when in the premiums but it just does not happen. (Someone really need to speak to new players buying the Tirpitz and Atago, they really are not PtW!). Some premiums are better in a set tier but they tend to have no silver counterpart, the only ships I would say may have an edge in capable captains hand would be the Texas and Arizona. -
Yup, damage saturation sucks when you do not get the kill as expected. If in all examples the DD was either slower or indeed stopped the kill would ave been inevitable. But, if you look at the examples, as the DD is travelling at that 'just so' speed, the torps are in fact hitting in the same spot hence the saturated damage.
-
I would be extremely concerned with my countries navy if they could NOT get battle ready sooner than in the 2 world wars. You were in the navy? A cook like Captain Seagull?
-
Would help with a picture/replay, but my bet was that the area you were shooting at, had its HP pool emptied meaning no more damage could be done to that area.
-
Certain DD's have less than 6km detection range and as for not seeing them at that distance is quite realistic. As for your DD tactics that is one sure fire way not to help your team out, and as for the game mechanics being broken, far from it. By the way, anyone who sails DD's will obviously 'abuse' their ability to get close and torp, all other ships will have the ability to see those torps and make the necessary manoeuvres, ah, I know, you just did not see them until it was too late, yes?
-
You really are missing out on a lot or earnings by playing the Blys in PvE. Do yourself a great favour, just play lower tiers in PvE where the difference in earnings are less noticeable, and play the 'big boys' in PvP where you will earn those containers a lot quicker!
-
I can concur. Had a battle in the Fletcher which had just over 2000 XP on it, won the battle, got 4500 XP but back in port the ship XP had reset to zero. Strangely though the Container tab showed the correct XP?

Sounds more likely a network issue with you being kicked back to the login screen.

Festive Cheer Prize Draw - Do you feel lucky!
OldGrandad replied to Major_Riff's topic in General Discussion
A very nice gesture with which I would like to do one myself. I want to enter on behalf of a friend who has been there for me and put up with me; Name: Compobob Ship: Arizona Happy holidays to you. -
Installed the same mods as you posted and Training Room works. Baffling!
