Compatibility with Vanilla Tanks (maybe old topic)
Hi guys,

first I want to say that you are doing an amazing job with all RHS mods. I found them just a few month ago and my team and I really love them. We are currently finishing a zeus campaign with RHS only and I am currently planning our next campaign ...

I just have a simple question which I was not able to answer by myself because of too many conflicting comments spread over the internet.

I want to use some vanilla tanks in my current campaign side by side with RHS tanks. I found lots of old threads (2015) saying that there are some issues with the armor system for vanilla tanks which makes them almost invincible for all RHS tanks and RPGs (and vice versa).

But: On the RHS website you say that you apply the armor system to all vehicles incl. vanilla. I also made some test by destroying RHS tanks with vanilla weapons and really had some problems here. the Titan (as expected) worked like a charm but the other RPGs were to weak (even by hits to the weak points of tanks) ...

Question: Is this topic resolved and are vanilla tanks "compatible" with RHS tanks? Can I destroy vanilla tanks with RHS RPGs and can I destroy RHS tanks with vanilla weapons?

AND MOST IMPORTANT: Is the armor system of vanilla tanks (with RHS running on the server) comparable with the armor of RHS tanks?

If the ballancing works for 90% of the szenarios then I can handle the rest by myself, but if it is completely not compatible I want to know before I start ...

Thanks in advance!

Hi again,

i just answered the question myself! I created a "small" tanks firing range with vanilla and RHS tanks.

RHS tanks shooting @ Vanilla tanks: A lot of hits (3-6) necessary to destroy a vanilla tank (all hits to the side ~ 150m)

Vanilla tanks shooting @ RHS tanks: 1 - 2 hits to destory a RHS tank (all hits to the side ~ 150m)

Additionally I found out that the reload times of vanilla tanks are usually 6 sec. The most RHS tanks need 10 sec. to reload --> this will have a huge impact on the battlefield. The vanilla tanks also have a lot more ammo onboard than the RHS tanks (this issue can be handled by zeus or admin).

From my point of view this makes the vanilla tanks totally incompatible with RHS tanks! :steamsad:
