Thank you, sir. (I didn't intend to give you more work.)

Not at all. Thank you for being quick to point it out. I made a last minute change, well something I planned but forgot about anyways. SH loaded fine for me initially. Apparently, the changes implemented to special abilities, SH 4 did not like that. I returned them to normal for now until have time to figure out the issue.



I am editing files and double checking a couple things before upload the corrected version tonight.

Something I forgot about guys is in the Sargo/Salmon classes, I adjusted their periscope depths when hit the P key to 60 feet so so much scope is not exposed during observations.

Problem is this only works for for later war modifications to the sail, early war scopes won't break water at that depth, so for now will have to set 54 feet manually. Later today I will edit the file and release the edited file to use in early war. Been a long time since played with a Salmon Class, forgot about the issue.

Can someone let me know how to turn up the contrast or brightness? Some of the textures are just black on my screen inside the sub, even during the daytime.

Check your "Options" menu, then "Graphic Settings", and clear the tick box for "Post Process Filters". That setting cranks up the saturation and adds a "graininess" to the image, trying to make the screen look like an old movie. If that's not ticked, then perhaps move the "Gamma" slider just a pinch - not too much now - but just a pinch to the right. You might notice pixelation in the shadows if you go too far. Even just a half of the width of the slider is probably too much.

Thanks. The gamma adjustment doesn't make much of an improvement, but I'll try turning off post process filters. And also, why is subsim website text in German for me?? lol. I am hitting subsim.com from the states, so confused.

At the very bottom-left of the page are two drop-down boxes. One chooses your interface style, the other whether you see German or English. Being a computer program, if you follow a link in, or accidentally change that, the site remembers it when you visit the next time. I have gotten stuck in a Deutch cycle more than once over the years... my hi-skrul German (aka: getting old and forgetful) no longer takes me there...

I use ReShade with SH4 and obtain great results. You have a lot of presets to use and doesn't affect the FPS.

Good luck!

The smoke mod is included with the mod in the optional mods folder "TMO Different smoke and splash effects" See README for instructions to enable.

Been away for awhile but after playing some UBOAT got the itch to come back and give this game another go! Didn't expect to see the supermods still in active development. Going to be giving the others a try later, but TMO was what I used most previously so the one I'm most eager to start with. Yes, that's probably a big mistake but I can handle it. haha.

Too impatient to wait for the update with the pre-pearl harbor start date but really excited to hear it's expected soon and will definitely be playing it once it's available! Just gonna be getting my feet wet until it's available.

Anyway, the point of this message is actually just to say thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort to continue improving on one of this game's most iconic and immersive mods. I look forward to seeing your progress with it!
