Beta 1.01 available on Steam - Page 2

schurem · 06-11-17, 08:34 AM

i got it, and found no big problems. the survivability of the enemy subs seems to have gone up. I torpedoed a sierra two times and he sat on the bottom with its icon still showing live and spitting torpedoes at me. perhaps a bug?

Posted this on the 1.01b Steam Discussion forum, but Posting here for Optimal Coverage. The Torpedo Icon glitch Can be easily replicated following steps in the Video.

yup, seems that is it! Very helpful Char! Replicated & forwarded

Not many time to test 1.01 beta and "b" version (I'll wait for final patch on Steam) but thx a lot for quick response.

Is it possible to see in this patch this new user menu?

I have been interested in submarines since I was a kid and I am a bit frustrated with all the "fixes" and "work-arounds" in DW. I really enjoyed RSR, 688i and others in Cold War genre.

I am doing 10-12 hour days, at least, having to think about what I am doing in D.C. since the election, but, I am going home to Arizona this week for a much easier schedule, mentally anyway.

So, I am watching and trying to understand it all for getting CW via Steam when I get there. I REALLY hope that patching, updating, whatever is not a difficult thing like the older Cold War subsims.

If I had the opportunity to master anything on a submarine, it would be sonar. At least I could "see" outside the boat.

Am just hoping, maybe a rant, just hoping that CW updating stays simple and organized. For $40, it seems a steal and the premier sub sim in its genre. Thank-you Killerfish.

I forgot to mention it in the Video (Busy Morning) But It's not limited to just Tube 1. Any Tubes with Active Wires will disappear when reloading another tube with any of the info panels up.

Sorry not true.

as far as I know it won't be there in the patch coming tomorrow but some time down the road -two weeks maybe? Depends on many factors

I noticed the same (but I have 1.00 still).

@Killerfish Games

Is sonar angle of incidence modeled?
In other words, am I less likely to be picked up on Active if I'm pointing directly at the emitter?

Also heads up guys, about to release a mod that includes active decoys and brings the sonar emulations to more realistic levels (less OP mk48, quieter subs)

Yes, face on reflects ~25% of what the broadside does.

Reykjavik harbor is pink, all buildings missing textures in 1.01b, checked a few other harbours, they seemed ok.

Jester107th · 06-12-17, 06:31 PM

When I go to the Betas tab and hit the dropdown, my choices are none or "Beta -"

If I choose "Beta -" it asks me for a code?

Any ideas?

Just leave it blank. Worked fine for me.
