how to protect my SS 6.1 mangonels?

I noticed that 6.2 mangonels are less lethal than 6.1 and vanilla ones (boring firing style too). I backed up descr_particle and descr_flame projectile files but to no avail. Any ideas?

Go to descr_projectile.txt, search for barrel and change accuracy to a lower number to make them more accurate,and increase or decrease velocity, to, well change their velocity(multiple entries for the big barrel and the fireworks that result).
Change their attack in export_descr_units (this won't have much of an effect tho)
Go to descr_area_effects.xml , search for barrel and change the radiuses and damages

That should do for your needs.

Thks, I did that but sadly nothing changed clearly. Which file helps us edit the visual effect? (ex. 6.2 barrels not blow when hit the ground while 6.1 does very beautifully and the small fire still sticking to the enemy)
