Where to see how much HULL damage I've taken.

[Axolen]

I recently had enough damage to the hull that I couldn't even go to parascope depth in Silent Hunter 4. I eventually figured out I had to go back to base and get a new sub, but I was wondering on where I can see this elusive HULL value so I know when I'm getting close to dying underwater?

On the damage control screen there's a number ticker in the upper left, tells you your percent bustication

I've looked and looked over all the screens, especially that one and I can't find it. Not even in the spot you said. I have the STEAM version if that helps. Thank you for your help so far.

Might want to try the original gameSUBSIM.COM it is like 15 dollars for both the original game and the uboat add on included ...

I have yet to see anything good come from over heated air.

Your Hull Damage should show on the SubSystems Page. This is what it looks like with SH4 version 1.4:





This is what it looks like with SH4 1.5:

You can try set the screen in diff revolution and see. It may OK.

Chu888.......Welcome to SubSim!!

I'm guessing you've read this thread, learning that Axolen's problem has to do with the version of his Steam downloaded game was version 1.3. Unfortunately he has not posted in the last 2 months to tell us if things worked out for him or not.

Although the resolution/aspect ratio can interfere with certain portions of the screen being "cut off" along the edges of the screen, its not likely to have just a small piece of the screen (like the digital readout of the Hull Damage) not to show, while other parts are displayed just fine.

If the resolution/aspect ratio had something to do with it, the entire left side of the screen......showing the individual sub makeup would be missing too:




As an update though, do you have a Steam downloaded version of the game? What does your Main Menu screen show as its version:





Just curious.......wondering if Steam replaced their download of the original Silent Hunter 4 game from version 1.3 to 1.4???
