90% torpedo fail
« on: July 08, 2011, 07:03:08 AM »
...whats that, or is just another bug?? Almost 90% of my attempts to drop torpedoes fail. They´re just axploding when hitting the water or just fail...tried it with sworfish, avenger and bostons...what can i do?... and i think it´s not because of the altitude ( varying 15-30 meter)

Maybe the speed.

What tipe of torpedos?

From what airplane you launch them?

If you don´t give us more information we can´t give you any help

The 4.10 readme goes over the launch parameters for the various torpedoes. I believe that one of the German torpedo types are supposed to be launched from 100 m at 300 km/h, and it's worked for me.

In ju-88 you need to go in slow speed and when you release the torpedoes make a small dive.

Hello Elmar,

With the 4.10 patch the droppoing of torpedoes has been made much more difficult than before. Now, each torpedo has its own specific parameters for drop speed and altitude. These have to be followed exactly, otherwise the weapon will fail on impact. As Andqui pointed out, have a look at the 4.10 read-me file.

YEP !!  Great fun in figering out drop speeds and Alt's for fish delivery.
H8K slow and low, which is not good for such a big plane "sitting duck" comes to mind LOL, I do all my missions in DBW and same all through out, more testing needed for the othersm & of cause a good read. It does pay to read I have found. Loving the SAS mod Act, UP3 and DBW BRILLIANT STUFF !!!!!
