Unfortunately, i have the crew-on-bridge-while-underwater-problem myself, and my first patrol ended in tears as my co2-levels went banzai while surfaced, and my men died.

Tried a new patrol now, and found that the crew leaves the bridge (and come back when I surface) if I DONT save the game and reload OR alt+tab. Finished an entire patrol from Penang and back with lots of lurking about looking for the Allies, and no problemos. (Besides my expensive Falke torpedo going boom approx 400 metres from my boat)

PS: I still get the old stuttering if I let the game run on both cpu cores, but if I limit it to one, it runs like butter. The game looks awesome, runs great and that IXD2 is one beautiful 3D model. Hooray!

Another small thing I found - the engine sound positioning is backwards when in the interior of the boat. The sounds are coming from the fore of the boat when the engines are aft of the command room. The bow wake sound, conversely, is coming from the aft.

I had also noticed this, and it really bugs me.

I've only read the first 2 or 3 pages of this thread so forgive me if it's been said allready, but when I look forward from the bridge the water near the front of the boat seems to vibrate. I get decent framerates and everything else looks fine, it's just that water right there at the front. If I look left or right, the water there seems fine.

Also, I get the crewmen staying on deck while submerged. I haven't tested it, but at the time I thought it was because I submerged while at battlestations.

(EDIT) I just noticed that the conning tower in the Uboat doesn't do night lighting with the rest of the ship....

Yep, after trying it out for the last two weeks, all I can say is 1.5 U-Boat addon is rubbish at this present time.

Back to the superb GWX2 SH3 for my U-Boat fix...........see pics below.

Is that a bug report or an ad for GWX2? :rotfl:

How about you try this?: if you can't contribute to the topic of the thread, then don't post in it.

The German awards are not set up properly. Players can earn the Knight's Cross before the other medals, and in at least one case a player has reported earning the U-boat Front Clasp more than once.

Right, in a thread about reporting bugs, your post about the add-on being rubbish and going back to SH3 was just soooo helpful in letting the devs know what issues need attention.

Is that what they teach you in the UK armed forces, to report information that's irrelevant to the situation at hand?
