Plane indicators in the screenshot show what should be a level boat, not one that is ascending. The conning tower does not have this tilt when the sub is riding level. Neither do the S Boats.

Read the posts. I NEVER reported I was level while the boat was ascending to the surface. I was level in ALL of my screenshots. The view IS NOT showing it level, when the sub is supposed to be level. BTW, the first screen I posted of this issue, I was surfaced. So It would be impossible for me to be ascending. The gauges don't lie. Look at the screens carefully. Look at the gauges.

We have the same things happen to us more than you know. That's what modding so fun.

My boat was never ascending in any of my screenshots. They were all taken when the boat was surfaced, or 140 feet maintaining depth. Look at the plane gauges in anyone of my "tilted" screenshots, then tell me I was ascending. You will see, the view is supposed to be level with the information the plane gauges are showing.

You are right near where that DD was attempting to self-destruct on the rocks right there... them fellers are probably walking on the roof, though you'd think you'd see a mast somewhere...
Thats what i was searching for, but could not find anything.

Its a realism factor added to the game.

Make sure you use the camera that's setup for the room your in...in other words don't walk through the Radio Room door to view the Radio Room with the Command Room camera....use the Radio Room camera in the Radio Room. Use the Command Room Camera in the Command Room. Don't pass through the different rooms with the same camera.
An accurate set of statements!

Up to the point of my reply this was the only image you guys provided:

Neither you or Factor provided me with what sub your seeing this issue with. There are four American interior models used on the various American subs. Instead of getting your back up, how about providing a little detail about your problem next time.

Keep your shirt on, I'll be looking into it.

Ok, Look at this screen shot. Notice the depth gauge is at 140 ft. Now look at the plane indicators. Both bow and stern planes are level. The red light is also showing level. The little red light beside the depth gauge.

This screen, and all the others I have posted, the sub is maintaining depth, and not ascending. The screen Scurvy reposted, was taken from the sub in port, on calm seas at 0 knots. The screen below, was taken at 140 feet, 0 knots. Planes level. This view is only askew in the Fleet Boats. The S Boats are fine. Three CM interior dat files will fix the issue. I already have.

I have, and gutted as well, have explained this issue in great detail in several posts.

By those plane indicator readings, this view perspective should be level. Would you not agree?

While i agree it might not all be in one post... ALL of the information was posted, along with the fix.

I don't need to look at your "fix" to fix what needs to be fixed...if it needs fixing!

But since I've got you here. Where did you get your idea for the Solution Solver?





The three piece dial you've used in your modification looks all too familiar to me......... much like my AoB Calculator don't you think!





When I designed the AoB Calculator it was like no other, in that it provided a third outer dial defining the subs Relative Bearing aspect to the calculation. I looked all through your documentation, I don't see a word of credit except for your own?

It needs fixing. Have you looked at my last screen shot. Look at it. Look at the plane indicators. Then tell me what the attitude of the submarine should be. Please.

Its an easy fix, so I really don't care If its fixed or not at this point. Im sure it would be brought up when this mod is used more.

If you right click off the dials and open the about box, you'll see the credits.

Kinda weird that you brought up the solution solver. I've been working on a major update.
