I have seen a couple of screenshots of crew with no shirts . Is it a bug or intentional .

It seems to happen to me when the sub is damaged and on her way to the bottom.

It was hot, hot, hot in the pacific and I guess the diesels didnīt make it cooler.

It's so your GF will actually take some interest in the game when she looks over your shoulder. :lol:

Very true! I bet it was intentional:

I've had the same thing happen. At first I was a bit surprised then thought about it and figured yeah ok, at least they kept their PANTS on!!

It is intentional. Got hot in the PTO. Plus under silent running the airconditioners were turned off or just broke down

I have yet to see any of my crew like this, even near the Celebes.

The reason SH4 is so buggy is the time spent on this feature. They actually coded the game so it can tell (based on your HD temp files, browsing history, etc) if you like that sort of thing. If it decides you do, presto, topless guys on deck!

not enough kit to go around , one partol in a storm heavy driving rain. Look around at the watch one guy just had his usual blue shirt and jeans, the other next to me had on a jacket. The next time , different shift ? the guy next to me had on the rain coat and hat.

Don't know if its tied into rank ?

This is nothing compared to the end credits of "down periscope"...
A way much better version than this!

Each crewmember has its "preferences" dependind on the situation. Though they should wear the rain gear....

The stripped Shirt has to be intentional, and i think its a great touch. ALthough i think they should have tied that to silent running, cause ive only seen it when your boat is hit and flooding.

From books ive read in the past, it got REALLY HOT in a fleet boat in the pacific. Temperatures reaching to like 120 degree's in the pressure hull during silent running because all the fans and AC had to be shut off. If i remember right, crew would ingest salt tablets to restore some of the lost salt from sweating, and the floor of the sub would just be covered in sweat.

If that hot, you'd take your shirt off too. hell, i'd be down to my skivvies.

Yes, it got hot in the S and Central Pacific. I remember one of the logs mentioning the AC was working good when it was only 85F in the sub. I've seen lotsa movies and WWII sub film clips with shirts off. This was common. Only guys on subs in those days. While in battle you can't have guys passing out from heat if it can be helped.

In the book "War in the Boats" the author writes frequently about the incredibly hot conditions in the sub in general. Temps of over 100 degrees seem to not be uncommon...

And in S-Boats they didn't have air conditioning. They called them pigboats for a reason.

Well I think the real question is not if it is feasable to have a shirtless crew, but rather why this happens only when deep into a death dive.
