Quoting (as suggested by Safekeeper and addedd by Drebbel)

Just some back-seat moderation, if I may: Could everyone be so kind as to not quote posts containing pictures? It clutters up the thread and makes it take longer to load.

A request if I may - please post some screenshots that DON'T feature a sub surfacing in front of the main formation of the IJN Combined Fleet. :doh:

Those with the retail version - I'd be glad for any updates, but I'm now especially interested in the ships.

Instead of just hitting the 'Quote' button, type something like 'I love how you can apparently just click an icon in the top-right corner to dock at a port rather than having to hit 'Escape' and then 'Dock At...'. Big improvement!' or something to that effect.

Each pic' should appear only once in any given thread, though I'd allow pic's subjected to cropping, manipulation, etc. to be posted.

By the way, Drebbel, I love how you can apparently just click an icon in the top-right corner to dock at a port rather than having to hit 'Escape' and then 'Dock At...'. Big improvement:up:!

[Tigrone]

I think so too Ark. Looks like many a'morning that I've put out to sea in my little boat.

"Just some back-seat moderation, if I may: Could everyone be so kind as to not quote posts containing pictures? It clutters up the thread and makes it take longer to load."

Very good idea, Wilco. I also will try to only post my sig once in a thread, unless making a point. That will cut down on lot on clutter too.

"Jawa?" I think we can mod that pretty quick, unless, Drebble, that's not how it would have read on a Dutch chart is it?

[melin71]

can you post some screenshoots of the controlls of the sub, like tdc and periscope, torpedomanage and stuff like that. the game look great. maby more cartoonish then sh3.

Well in SH3 time is linked to European time (Berlin, maybe BDU?) and if you hover the mouse over it it shows local time. Try that gronbek, maybe it's supposed to be the time in Washington D.C. or something? :hmm:

Good eyes, I did not see that down on his khaki sleeve. But, what is the P 11 20 then?

"And the sun was shining with all his might, which was odd, the Walrus said, because it was the middle of the night," or something like that.

[Elder-Pirate]

In post # 47 when gronbek says ( above piv ) :shifty: Something is not right with the time:shifty: I think he may be refering to this said by his NA........Time to end is 0.7 hrs.............which is 3/4 of an hour ( or allfull close to it ). But that should be the answer to where ever he requested the trip end which is not listed in either pic.

OOHH here it is:

At the bottom of first pic it says.............January 1, 1943 Local time: 22:20 ( or 10:20 P.M. ) and to the right of that it says P 11:20 which should be 23:20 (11:20 P.M. ) which is the subs home time. Thats a bug but can be lived with and easly straightened out.

[gronbek]

Thanks gronbek for the screens looking good.

Hi,

Well, I got an old AMD 4000+ machine with ATI 1950 graphics card ;)
I have not had time to start the campaign yet. Maybe tomorrow.
Too much fiddling around :p

Some things I have noticed.
I miss the watch command from SH3 report closest visual contact.
And the manual is lacking in describing the crew management. Dont understand the new layout.
Crew watchmen slightly transparent. I can see the land mass through their heads:)
Miss the captains quarter:yep:
There is a grainy haze covering the game image. Like an old movie but not that visible.
There is no periscope height meter.
The sound balance is slightly off. I can barely hear the crew confirmations, but the gunshots from deck gun are too loud.

Beyond the 0.7 hrs. thing I'm not sure just what gronbek was refreing to.:huh:

Hi,
Sorry if it got confusing :D
Both images taken during the same game minute.
Strange thing is that it says local time 22.20 evening. Sun is shining brightly.
And where I live it is 21.15 according to windows clock. I first thought local time was the time windows reported.
And in the right lower corner second image it say 11.20 morning. P is pause button.

Quote"The sound balance is slightly off. I can barely hear the crew confirmations, but the gunshots from deck gun are too loud."

Maybe there is sound adjustment on the options screen like in SH3 ?

[Sockeye]

About the periscope having no height meter, I think that in American subs the 'scope could just be extended or retracted fully, without any fine-tuning. I've understood that this is compensated for by having the boat at a slightly lower depth. But someone correct me if I'm mistaken.

Didn't Bledsoe in "Run Silent, Run Deep" (novel), order the boat down another half-foot during his ill-fated qualifcation?

I tried all the settings at different values. But it did not help the problem.
Maybe its my soundcard, dont know. Its not that serious.

BR Anders

[Elder-Pirate]

gronbek, guess you were posting while I was editing my post after looking over your post #47 again. Yes thats still a bug I believe about 11:20 for that would be A.M. Didn't know the P meant pause as I thought it was short for P.M. as a lot of games use it that way. ( :oops: ) I still think the 11:20 is probably meant to be one hour difference ( Subs home time ) than the 22:20 way to the left in pic. and should be 23:20.

Someone will track it down before long I'll bet. :up:

[gronbek]

could some kind soul perhaps post a comparison shot of SH4 with all the graphics options turned down/off, so we shoestring gamers can see how it might look on our rigs, when we get it in our part of the world.

Oh and show us some (maxed out if poss!) stormy days in the pacific! Rain, the works. :D

Dummy me for I'm not sure but is there a ten hour diff. from say Calif. or maybe Washington D.C. as to where your subs at?

If so that would make your pic in post #47 right. :hmm: ( maybe ? )

gronbeck,

I have a question for you. The following is from the Ubi forum Dev Team answer thread...


Q: Taifu_Noodle: What units of measurement will SH4 use?
A: Silent Hunter 3 used the same measurements system as the Kriegsmarine - based on the metric system. For Wolves of the Pacific, we will of course use the imperial system since this is the historical solution. However, we are considering to have the game switch to metric as an option.


It looks like depths are all being displayed in Meters(metric) in your pics. Are you using an 'option' to have depth measurement displayed in metric?

Thanks

As a posible answer to the "Jawa" thing, the japanese don't have a "V" sound in their native language. When speaking foriegn words they use a "B" sound, but in the native tounge a "W" would be more natural for Java. Probably wrong, but that's my guess.

The measurements are only implemented in metric. There is no option at present for the actual US measure. Distances and depths are in meters and kilometers. There was not time to complete the game before the release. We will have to wait for a completion patch.

I've see other map screens where it is spelled Java. I think it's just another editing error. I think we will find more errors too. The devs are probably scanning these posts to pick up on errors for the completion patch. I think we can expect one quick patch, a comprehensive completion patch, and then a final patch.

Tigrone,

Thank you for your reply and answering my question. You seem very certain with your answer and I don't doubt you, as a fellow who claims to be a beta tester has said the same thing. And all screenshots have only shown the metric system so far. Still, I would like to ask how you know for certain?

Whatever the case may be, thank you for your reply and answer.

Cheers

Looking at post #70 the underwater screenshot of the depth under keel is read as 13 meters but it looks more like 13 feet. Is it posible it's just titled wrong?

I agree, in the pic it looks more like 13 feet to me too. Good point and certainly a possibility. Inquiring minds want to know! ;)

Is it really that hard to program a piece of software so that it converts Metric units into English units? I mean, it's just a few steps in a subroutine, right? Take the Metric value, multiply by the Metric/English conversion factor, then display the English value. This seems like pretty basic stuff, so what am I missing?

To get back to the Jawa issue:

In the malay language, and probably a few others, the nam for Java is JaWa.

I also noticed the used Soerabaja (the Dutch spelling) for the port city of Surabaya.

Drebbel

PS: Malay = language of the Malays, i.e. Indonesia

[Tigrone]

What name would have been on a Royal Netherland's Navy chart of the time, or a Commonwealth navy, or US, which would probably have been borrrowed from them.

[GvKonijnenburg]

Looking at post #70 the underwater screenshot of the depth under keel is read as 13 meters but it looks more like 13 feet. Is it posible it's just titled wrong?
Good point. If this is true, I wonder if perhaps a simple text file edit would do the trick.

I guess there is really 13 meteres under the keel. If there is shown depth equal to 5 meters - I assume this is the depth from water surface to bottom point of sub, then we have approximately 2.2-2.6 times of this height which is approx equals to 13 meters.

Thank you.

Looking at the screenshot it looks to me to be about 5 meters from the keel to the ocean floor, which would actually be closer to about 15 feet IMHO.

Sounds like an expert opinion to me if you can tell the difference between 13 feet and 15 feet! :smug:

Once SH4 is officially released in the US, I'm sure they'll ship it to you overnight. ;)

[Drebbel]

Silly question here, but how i can post my shots here?? Must i use some image site etc??

Check the first message in this thread. It explains how to do it.

[FIREWALL]

Maximum image size 1024x786, JPG format only.

Resizing images

If you need to resize a screenshot because it´s larger than 1024x786 you can use Irfanview, it´s free:
http://www.irfanview.com/

Open the image with Irfanview, go to Image -> Resize/Resample, under Size method select Resample, then type in the new size in Set new size, after that click Ok.

To save it go to File -> Save as, set Save as type to JPG, tick Show Options dialog and set Save quality to 85. Then save the image.

Alternative method

If you already have a JPG, Imageshack can resize it for you. On Imageshack.us click resize image? and select 1024x786, then upload the image.

Uploading images

Images can be uploaded to Imageshack:
http://imageshack.us/

Once uploaded you´ll see several links that you can copy. Take the one named "Direct link to image", mark the link and copy it (Ctrl-C).

Paste the link into your post (Ctrl-V), then wrap it in image tags.

http://server/image.jpg

Quoting (as suggested by Safekeeper and addedd by Drebbel)

Just some back-seat moderation, if I may: Could everyone be so kind as to not quote posts containing pictures? It clutters up the thread and makes it take longer to load.

As usual another good tip i'll add to my noobie folder THX .:up:

Can we have less talking and more screens. :88)

amen.

[Barkhorn1x]

Screenshots from the museum would be fine.:hmm:

I agree. Can somebody please get busy?? :yep:

In fact, I suggest the following; if there are people out there w/the game who have never really played a sim from the SH franchise before and have a whole host of questions - you may just want to stop playing and give us shots - as your going to need our help answering your questions. And we can't do that until we get the game later this week. So - just STOP playing - and use the time to post shots.

We will REALLY appreciate it and promise to give you complete answers to your questions - sometime later this week.

Makes sense, doesn't it.

Yes. Even aircraft carried a mix of HE and AP shells. Aircraft have armor. Also, 20mm on a US sub is more likely to be used against ship than an airplane.

could some kind soul perhaps post a comparison shot of SH4 with all the graphics options turned down/off, so we shoestring gamers can see how it might look on our rigs, when we get it in our part of the world.

Actually Payoff, I did read the rest of this thread, the topic of which is "screenshots and videos", not "units of depth measurement", or "Bugs and fixes", or "Imperial or metric - Which is better?" which are properly addressed elsewhere.:hmm:

Be that as it may, my point was that the debate was 13 meters vs. 13 feet. Imperial versus Metric units. An apparent bug in the sim. 13 'meters' is the figure in the text box as reported by the crew. You then threw out the figure 15? feet, which I hope you will allow me "muddied the waters" somewhat.:yep: (pun intended). For this, I administered a well-deserved ribbing, (in good humor, I might add) as your post does seem to suggest that you can tell the difference between 13' and 15' even though that was clearly (another pun) not your intent.

All the same, I'll be sure to check with you next time before "enlightening anyone with my comments". :shifty:

I was using his 5 meter analogy in my response and rounded to 15 feet to keep it simple. The point being that the depth appeared to be closer to 13 feet than 13 meters. As far as the thick skin: It seems there are a handful of folks that just scan a few lines of a post looking for flaws or imperfections just to slam somebody. Not to suggest that you would do this. As you have so gracefully pointed out, in the future I will be sure to post in the "proper" thread "units of depth measurement".

They look like friendlies.Good one, flint:rotfl:.

I'm with you, Payoff - truth be told, I was just giving you a hard time. I hope there are no hard feelings. I am in complete agreement BTW, that the units seem to be the problem. I think these subs would report depth under keel, (actual water depth minus draft of vessel) as opposed to actual water depth.

Back to screenies - WOW! :D I'm dying to get my copy! Keep 'em coming fellas. The 'appetizers' are much appreciated.

[Blood_splat]

Can you hear screaming and yelling from a crew that just had their ship blown up from under them?

[d@rk51d3]

No, the cheering from your sub drowns it out:rotfl:

[Onkel Neal]

All righty! With Elite Hunter's help, I present the Subsim Silent Hunter 4 attack video. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EoyadhXrVI)

100% realism settings, manual TDC, sonar, and even went to general quarters. Note there is no red triangle :/\\k: and no automatic map updates.

I say, dicky ol chap, I am hardcore :smug:

I'm liking this sim more and more....

[Skweetis]

Man, the way you set up that attack, and zipped through the controls, one might think you've played a subsim or two in your time. :smug:

[flintlock]

[Aimbot]

I wouldn't have stayed on the surfase so long. My thoughts while watching:

"He should really be diving.

Is that a destroyer.

He doesn't have the light for this.

Wow, they're pretty close.

Dive.

Dive.




Dive!"

Gwx has me paranoid. :o

[Tigrone]

I gotta post this here. It's just too bizarre. Any comments. Don't forget our English poetry reader, Fly Envious Time. It's gotta be a hoax, right? Either that or the Europeans are taking revenge.

Er explain how SH3 had Libs then...even SH2 and DC IIRC. Not to mention other sims with these planes. :roll:

Doesn't work here either. Some youtube.com employee obviously hates subsim.com:p.

Some pics from my last patrol (am still on it, cant figure out how to do photo recon yet)




Took me a while to figure it out aswell. All you have to do is use either attack or observation periscope, then switch to their controls on the bottom bar, lock on a ship and click the "Take picture" button all the way to the right.

I think there's something between US companies and Ubi, and the more time passes, the more the US companies in question are looking to sue and whatever on the aircraft issues.

[daft]

Excellent video Neil! If you ever find the time, do a series of "Manual TDC Tutorials" for those of us that haven't grasped it all yet. :)

[Fat Bhoy Tim]

I think there's something between US companies and Ubi, and the more time passes, the more the US companies in question are looking to sue and whatever on the aircraft issues.

I think that's hogwash. It's a well known wartime aircraft that's been plastered all over the public domain for decades.

[sergbuto]

Is it possible to set up an attack on the 3D TDC (like in SH3) without using the 2D pullouts in the periscope view?

We do now that some Americans don't like the French, especially after France did not support the war in Iraq. So i think it could be possible that Ubi wasn't allowed to use some American planes. I think it's unlikely but stranger things have happened (both before and after noon). Sorry, but I had to quote the Red Hot Chili Peppers.;)

[evil666]

i really like this video. very nice. :rock::D

what are your system specs, neal?

Thanks for the at least lower quality pics,even. your cards better then mine having a 256 interface off the 256,(but rest of the stuff is equal, have more ram I do :p ) but at least the game still looks 1337 ]-[@>< with the graphics not at max. :D

You have transparent water on? If you don't It makes the water look better imho :p (even though its not realistic)

Is it possible to set up an attack on the 3D TDC (like in SH3) without using the 2D pullouts in the periscope view?

No, I don't think that is available in SH4.

I agree, again I repeat that SH3 had Liberators and Avengers in the stock game that came out in 2005. Pacific Fighters came out earlier than that.

Sir, can we equalize the pressure in the boat????????

[hachiman]

Excellent Video Neal.
And i agree a Video of your Manual TDC with maybe narrative or subtitles would be excellent.

Could you tell me your method of working out speed?
You seemed to just input a speed in'but i guess you estimated it rather than precise calculations?Apologies if i'm wrong.

Impressive!!

[Rilder]

You have transparent water on? If you don't It makes the water look better imho :p (even though its not realistic)

(2 pics that have nothing to do with tthe game)



Umm whats the point of these pics? I was meerly comenting that the transparent water looks weird and I want to run sh4 (when I get it) without it on.
