Waiting to get this new mod. I know that waiting is the hardest part.

No, the hard part is having announced the new mod is coming, to be writing the mod, knowing that many people are out there thinking their waiting is the hardest part!

You know, when you announce a big mod, there's always a lot of uncertainty as to when it will be ready. For instance, we discovered by getting killed a lot, that FOTRS 2.0 was infested with dozens of elite hunter-killer groups and expert players were getting killed on their first or second cruise of a career. That's a mod killer. It was entirely unanticipated. And campaign files are not quick to change.

That's only one of the many gotchas that happen when you are foolish enough to start a new supermod!

Greetings from the tail end of 2019. Just wanted to drop a note to let you know this hard work is still appreciated. I am returning after a 5 year hiatus and really like this "unofficial bug fix" as it were to spruce up the game without diving into the more hard core mods (that will come later I'm sure).

So, cheers! And thank you.

The following is a repost by me because the colors of the original made it VERY hard to read, at least on mobile (and the various themes do nothing to change it)

Original de-colorized post by Webster

**********

This is a combined mod merging the popular Lite Fog for Real Environments mod that was made by Vikinger with my underwater visability mod, because he asked me to do it and i thought it was a great idea.

Lite Fog v1 & v2 + Underwater Visability (Lite Fog for Real Environments mod + my underwater visabilty mod)

**********

The link below is not really a mod, its a test mission that has two single missions, one for german side and one for US side containing almost all warships and merchants, they might come in handy for testing this or that.

I made them for torpedo testing on stationary targets so if your doing your own torpedo mod or damage testing or anything like that, then you'll have all the different types of ships to sink.

Webster's Torpedo Test Missions for v1.4 and v1.5

**********

Permissions and usage of my mods:

My mods are all free for anyone to use any way they wish but if you release a mod that makes use of my files then please give proper credit to me as well as any other modder who contributed something to my mod.

You can upload any of my mods anywhere you want to, but please do not change the name or description of the mod or change them in any way if you plan to upload or host them.

I have no interest in uploading my mods and/or maintaining them at any other sites besides here at subsim.

If you want to upload or host my mods somewhere then go ahead and feel free to do so but if you do this then you must take on the responsability to keep them updated as it is needed. Whenever i update a mod i will change its description and announce it in that mods release thread. every mod i make has its own mod release thread for any discussions of mod questions, issues, notes, updates and such.

thanks, that was the whole point to be just fixes or corrections without getting into changing difficulty if at all possible unless its to fix unrealistic damage models or overly damage proof ships

Yo dude I gotta say your gfo 1.1 is like the best mode ever but is there anyway you can help me at all?
Is there a way you can get the otc mod scopes and recognition manual with the length of the ships
Because without the scope lines on the periscope or the correct info for the length of the ship makes the game not playable
And also the radar constantly randomly turning on too
Anything you can do or can I copy stuff from one mod to another sorry if it's a silly question lol just only kinda wanna stock play and not use super mods and all that and yours is the only one with the hydrophone fixed

To put OTC into GFO, use the Optical Targeting Correction (OTC) for SH4 v1.5 version from CapnScurvy, but on top of GFO after you have finalized the GFO mod activation. GFO, as Webster states is basically the Stock game, with as many "fixes" as he could find at the time of building the mod, which is what gives it the name "Game Fixes Only"... Also, the radar should not randomly turn on and off, unless you have added incompatible mods to the install. The SJ radar will turn off when water washes over it. It will turn on when no waves wash over. So if you are on the surface, you have radar, usually full-time, unless you turn it off with the menu button. Once you submerge, it turns off, whether you have it turned off already, or if it's on. Therefore, when you surface again, it turns back on - always. You must turn it off again, if desired. The SD Air Search is similar in operation, except in the Stock game, you cannot turn it on and off. It is always on, unless water washes over it. Refer to the "SH4_Q-Ref_Card_Back.jpg" and "SH4_Q-Ref_Card_Front.jpg" files for most of the available key presses.
