First i must say GwX is a nice mod.
But there is no reason to exclude low end pc users who were able to run SH3.. with some mods.As far as i can say some of the usually useless bumped up Texures..(seeaflor you cant see98% of the time..for example) are the main reason the mod is so resource hungry.
There are some options i want to have though ,which i miss in GWX.
First ,how can i disable the positve boyancy mod,..I am aware that there is a light version , but even with that ,the behaviour is Exactly opposit of the historical fact...
Boat drove with physical positive boyancy via dive planes but with static negative one.
If you watch das boot you can find plenty of evidence for that,, to name a public exampel.
Which means the boat tends to sink ,that had a reason ,as it allowed to dive real fast...,not to pop out of the water that would be suicidal and has to be avoided at all costs and is utter nonsense., think about it ,would you risk your boat like that.. i wouldnt and the Kaleuns of ww2 didnt either.
And i dont talk about preflooding ok?
So how do i remove that Positive Boyancy completley.?
Second if you would provide an option for tankerif seefloor mood light ,you know the smaller texture version, even low end computers could use the mod.
And please dont claim it doesnt work,.. it does.
I play several campaigns.. atm withthe GWX1.3,,and i can play it the whole day with no errors so far,.. Good job.
Just the typeXXI campaign i started in Bergen in 1945 gives me headaches.
Every mission or campaign battle with the XXI in it ,is crashing sh3 after a random delay.. soemtime 30 minutes into the mission sometimes 20 minutes ,and at all stations ,in external mode on the torp load screen at the periscope.. etc. seems to be completly random but its only with the XXI ,..so i dont get it.. it doesnt matter if i activate the snorkel mod or not..,it doesnt even matter if i am in the boat or watching enemy ships in close up.. but its always conected to some sort of activity.. like draging a torp into a load slot (i am aware of the bugs arround that screen but this "feels" diffrent),zoom in or out click on the periskope fire button etc.. it wouldnt happpen if do nothing but watch the current scene, i assume.
It doenst matter if i use the light version(128mb) of tankerif seefloor or the stock version for 256 megs graphic cards. Tryed both via jsgme
Is there something diffrent compared to the Type VIIB for example ??..,as with that one i never had any crashes at all.
Third,is it possible to mute the " oh my good when will this be over" guy? its enerving he says that all the time.. while dc`d.
In the end i have a heretical sounding request.
Could you include a jsgm option with a moded flottila file that allows to drive the XXI from 39 on starting in Hamburg or kiel etc..? Reason is i am into sub sims since the first ones came out , 80Tys systems...,i cant count my Accumulated Feindfahrten in the last 25 years.., and i am just in the mood to try something radical diffrent.. alternative History if you like.
Besides all this, you made a great effort i can see that, just dont let this get to your head;)
