Hi,

I'm new to this whole sub-sim thing and I have a question about SH4.

It seems that sometimes when I fire torpedos, an automatic external camera window opens up when I am in the attack map mode. The window seems to open by itself for other events such as torpedo impacts, depth charge attaces, ships sinking too.

But, this only happens sometimes. Not always. Is this something I turn on/off somewhere? :hmm:

Same is true for torpedo tracking. Sometimes the torpedo track is shown on the attack map, sometimes not. I am completely confused...

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Event camera is in the options menu, you can disable it.

The torps in the attack map not showing is a known bug, the Trigger Maru Mod ( in the SH4 Mods Section )addresses this somewhat. I think there is a standalone as well, Patrol Mod I think:hmm: I use Trigger so I am not entirely sure.

Welcome and good hunting:up:

Thanks!

I must have shut the event camera off by accident. I'll check when I get home later this evening.

I'll upload the mods too.

I apprecaite your help!

Check out the Read-me's for each mod, Trigger changes other stuff as well, that being said, it is a good one, as are many of the SH4 Mods.

Glad to help.
