FHSW: Guided bombs

FHSW is back with a message today. Included are guided Bombs. So, a new animation for you out there to enjoy. You can find further updates in the following message. So you can look forward to further innovations and the resulting new version that will then be released.

I-Go Model Ko

also known as the Ki-147 was a radio guided missile developed for the Japanese Army Air Force to attack enemy ships. It was carried by the Ki-67 twin engine bomber aircraft and could be controlled 11 km from the aicraft. It has 800 kg of explosives and a jet engine.

 

Fritz X

The Ruhrstahl SD 1400 X more commonly known as the Fritz X was a German guided bomb. It was intended to destroy heavily armoured warships. Two were enough to sink the battleship Roma following the Italian surrender to the Allies in 1943. Though, it is a glide bomb which limits range in comparison to other guided bombs. In FHSW you will be able to fly a He111 with this bomb or call upon using a spotter kit.There will also be some changes to the jet powered Hs 293 that has been in FHSW for some time. It will be updated both visually and in performance.

British naval aircraft

 

There will be more carrier-based aircraft for the British, while some have no difference to their ground-based counterparts, one notable example is the twin engine Mosquito. The Sea Mosquito can either drop torpedoes or two special spherical shaped Highball bombs that bounce on the water surface. Highball bombs were one of the weapons considered to destroy the German battleship Tirpitz in Norway but ended up being ready to late into the war to be used.

 

 

Aircraft carriers

 

Another change for naval combat is that the larger guns like a 5 inch or 127 mm gun on aircraft carriers will be able to damage not just aircraft but other ships. Aircraft carriers will be able to engage each other or smaller warships like destroyers. Though, escort carriers and other smaller aircraft carriers won’t have this ability and do best when avoiding the enemy.

 

 

 

Armoured Combat

 

There are also some changes for tank combat. For the Soviet Union 100 mm APCR rounds will be introduced which historically were late for WWII but will be useful especially in hypothetical 1946 battles in FHSW.The general armor system has also been changed to make HEAT and HESH projectiles more effective even when hitting spaced armor or sandbags on armored vehicles. A weakness of these types of munitions is thatMedium caliber tank canons and in particular Japanese ones will have improved performance. There will also be a greater difference between 57 mm 6 pounder guns with different barrel lengths. Another addition for the British are AP shells for vehicles armed with the 84 mm 25 pounder gun like the Bishop.Another small change is that the tank crew kit and the spotter kits which can call in aircraft will have new world models to make it more clear what you can pick up. The spotter kits will also no longer carry rifles to incentivize players to keep their distance from enemy infantry.

 

 

Please recommend this mod and be present on the server in large numbers from this evening onwards, so that we can all continue to enjoy the game for a long time.

Battlefield 1942 Windows 11 Tutorial - how to fix GameDVDR ms-gaming-overlay? 

More and more users and Battlefield 1942 players are upgrading to Windows 11, which is causing compatibility issues with programs they used to use frequently.  However, this problem can be quickly resolved with a small registry tweak. Remember Windows 10 in 2015, when it experienced conflicts with DirectPlay, for example. That's why this tutorial exists, and hopefully it can help you with other problems as well. Furthermore, Microsoft's official support for Windows 10 has ended.

Battlefield 1942 Windows 11 Tutorial - how to fix GameDVDR ms-gaming-overlay:

Who remembers? Eleven years ago, Windows claimed version 10 would be the last. As so often happens, a large company didn't keep its word! Just think of the large, powerful company that proclaimed, "Do no harm." Today, it forces us to handle more and more government services online, without being able to schedule an appointment with a person in person. A worrying trend.

FHSW: Squeeze bore guns & Super Tank destroyer

Squeeze bore guns & Super Tank destroyer

The Japanese are getting some new weapons to deal with enemy aircraft and armour. For the allies there is a squeeze bore adoptor to the light 37 and 40 mm anti tank guns. This muzzle device makes it possible to penetrate even more armour using the same gun.

Type 4 twin 20 mm gun pedestal mount:

 

 

 

This was a gun mount for the Type 98 AA gun that was installed on Japanese ships. It will also be featured on ground vehicles like the Type 94 truck to make a new self-propelled AA gun variant with twice the firepower of the SPAA truck with just one 20 mm gun.

Type 5 Ho-Ri II

 

This was a planned variant of the Type 5 Chi-Ri medium tank, only a prototype of the medium tank was built. This tank destroyer has a 10.5 cm experimental canon, a hull mounted 37 mm gun like on the Chi-Ri which in this case fires smoke rounds and the aforementioned 20 mm gun twin mount on the back of the vehicle. It looks a lot like the German Jagdtiger but the armour is only strong enough in the front to hold against other tanks. Which means The vehicle is vulnerable to flanking.According to FHSWdev the driver not only controls the 10.5 cm gun but can also switch between 37 mm gun and hull machine gun. This ability to use three different weapons independently will also be brought to the Maus tank, making it possible to use the 12.8 cm gun and switch between the coaxial 75 mm gun and machine gun.

Type Ge Anti-Tank Gun

 

This new artillery piece has the barrel of a Pak41 gun on Japanese designed carriage. A 150 Pak41 were made in Germany and there was a project to copy it in Japan. It is a squeeze bore gun which fires a 75 mm projectile down a 55 mm barrel, name "Ge" comes from Herman Gerlich who experimented with squeeze bore guns in the 1930s. For this type of gun the muzzle velocity and armour penetration is high but the post-penetration effect is limited since the rounds have no explosive filler. Historically this project was dropped in Japan to focus on developing ammunition for existing guns.

 

Littlejohn Adaptor 

 

The Allies also developed squeeze bore weapons. The littlejohn adoptor could be attached to the end of a regular 40 mm QF 2 pounder gun to increase its effectiveness against armour. It was used on armoured cars, light tanks and tested on Hawker Hurricane Mk.IID aircraft with 40 mm gun pods. The US military also made one for their 37 mm AT gun, here shown on the M8 Greyhound armoured car.

Anonther upgrade to the British 2 pounder gun is that the gun shield extensions will always be installed on the sides. They were often not used to save weight but are especially useful in FHSW where fighting is at short distances.
