Hi guys, I just downloaded the supermod RFB and play with RSRD mod and Real Environmental 5.0 . Everything is good except the torpedo launching problem. When I fire a fish, its wake appears on all the length of the boat instead of in the bow. I don't know if you got this bug but this annoys me.:damn::damn: Do you know how to fix this, please show me. Thank you all.

It is not a bug. The torpedo wake is a certain length and when the torpedo appears the wake appears at that length, it does not get longer as the torpedo moves. It is the same way with the sub wake. With the sub surfaced go to the free camera and watch the sub start, as soon as the sub starts moving the wake appears at a certain length.

It's strange because the stock game doesn't have this so I thought it's a bug. Could you show me how to post image ? I got the picture of this problem.
Thank you

It does not show as well in the stock game because you can not always see the sub depending on your settings for the game. I think it is the environment mod that makes it look more visible, if I remember right. (I don't use it, my video card doesn't handle it very good)
But here is the wake in stock in the picture on the left. The red arrow points to the periscope, which is near the center of the sub. In the picture on the right you can see as the torpedo starts to move away, the wake goes with it. So the wake is set to a certain length and it appears as soon as the torpedo does and then travels with it.

So, in order to make a wake it has to extend behind the torpedo and that is why is shows over the sub at the start. Normally you would be looking through the periscope while shooting so you wouldn't even notice it.
