Or something to include in the first official patch :hmmm:

Well i,m sure the devs arent even aware of the problem . And if so i think it wont be adressed and its considered a minor cosmetic problem . Which makes me wonder if they are really such u-boat enthusiasts since if so they would have noticed this in the first place. Its comparable to the wrong deck railing in on the early VIIC in sh-3. It never got fixed , well at least not by the devs.

I'm sure one or two are viewing this forum from time to time to guage how the game is being received.

If I'm correct and there is to be at least one follow on patch I'm confident the issue will be resolved...at least I hope so.

Never should have clicked on this thread. I can't wait for this game to come out.

The one thing I've been trying to figure out. Back in SHIII when you were in close enough with a properly trained torpedo officer small target boxes would appear on the recognition manual.

You could target the keel the engine room, fuel tanks, etc, etc. To date I think it was only in SHIII but I could be wrong, but I'm really hoping it makes a return in this game. Some of my favorite moments were targeting the fuel tanks on a ship and seeing it go up in flames from one torpedo lol

CCIP, could you please confirm one thing, is it water flowing down the deck (not out of limber holes) on those stormy screenshots (best seen on screen with detailed conning tower)?
I was waiting for this feature for ages and it seems its finally in :)

Yep, I can confirm that. There will be "sheets" of water flowing off the deck/sides whenever a sub's deck breaks the surface.

so do i have this right? if i could run sh4 with high video quality, can i run sh5 just as well?

I had to drop down the shadow quality to minimum and the AA to mid-level and it's very smooth. With that done it's only a bit sluggish for me in the u-boat pen. But that's because of my old video card, NV 8800GT. Rest of system is C2D 8400 3ghz, 5gigs RAM.

BUMP ! :D

Where's the barrel's water plug ? :stare:

:O:

Now that you mention it, there is none :-)

nice screen

Thanks.

How did you get those swastika into??? already moded?

Bilge Rat i have a question.

Can you confirm that the zoom on your attack scope is x4

If so i have work todo later :hmmm:

Snip below from the C.B. 4328 Report on U-570 that were captured by the British and "disected"

Found here: http://www.uboatarchive.net/U-570BritishReport.htm

Optical Arrangement. (see Sketch 15028.)

7. The sketch shows the probable arrangement of lenses and prisms within the periscope. In order to provide the fixed eyepiece arrangement, additional lenses are necessary.

Low Power.
Magnifications x1.5
Angular field 38°
Exit pupil 3.5 mm.

High Power.
Magnifications x6
Angular field 9°
Exit pupil 3.5 mm.

8. The top reflector gives an elevation movement of from - 15° to + 20°.

9. The optical performance in both powers is satisfactory.

10. The chief criticism is that the exit pupil is strongly chromatic at the side of the field. This gives the effect of changing colour of the field when eye is moved across the pupil.

11. Light transmission appears to be good and to indicate that the internal surfaces are treated with cryolite or similar substances. It has not been possible to examine any of the internal surfaces except the top objective below the top reflector. The top surface of that objective showed definite signs of having been surface treated.

It's been confirmed that the Deck gun shot trajectory line is an option, as are things like status bars.

The graphics are incredible. Nice to see that they're very smooth and glitch free (atleast with these guy's systems). I noticed that the smoke (and probably the searchlights) doesn't disappear now when the source is off-screen, which is great! I think this game is gonna sell record numbers.:up:

Nope, unfortunately that is a bug - happens, when u play around with the time compression in the game. I switched back to normal speed, but that didnt affect the torpedos, hope the'll fix this soon.

The frame rate issue is based on the recording with fraps - don't know why that happens, because some clips have these reduced animations, others don't. When I played without recording, all was fine. Guess my specs are too low ;-)

I have the feeling that after patching and modding this game this
will be THE BEST sim of all.

I have one little question.

It`s maybe modern that when there is something uploaded to
youtube that people adds a music or other noise.

I know, i know in this case it was sh5 music. But normally
when i see a youtube movie with hardrock or bong bong music added
i immediatly stop the movie or set off the sound.

Thanks btw for the uploading !

I know, i know in this case it was sh5 music. But normally
when i see a youtube movie with hardrock or bong bong music added
i immediatly stop the movie or set off the sound.I so agree. Apparently in today's world it's an achievement to paste together different scenes, slap a soundtrack over it, and upload it to YT*. Or, even worse, take an unedited scene, slap a soundtrack over it, and upload it to YT. When I want to watch something, 99% of the time I want to have the original audio, too, so I do as you do, turn off the sound and curse the uploader.

The Actually Good tab (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4dSsla-q6o) remains empty:nope:.

*PS of sorts: I didnt' mind the videos uploaded by Sparrowfist. They are nicely put together and you cuold tell he (she?) put effort into the project. The music also fit the bill, it's not stupid hardrock or something else.

1. Saves them to the folder where your SH5 exe is, same as SH3 and 4.
The problem I was having is for some reason my PrintScreen button seems to perform no function, but CTRL F11 takes the shot. Dunno why. I have no mods installed. Just one of those things I guess.

2. Since the patch I have been able to unman the deck gun via the WO.

Awesome video, too. I love how the water really looks like water, and how the part of the sub that's underneath the surface is so clearly visible, but still looks realistic.

Granted the sub doesn't seem to handle the water realistically, and the water doesn't behave 100% like water, but it's a huge improvement over SHIII and 4.

Sorry. I was referring specifically to Kiel.

@ shakermaker's last pic: some of us (myself included) have complained about the 'droplets' appearing in the first-person views. That picture shows that they can certainly make for some dramatic screenshots, though!:rock:

Heheh, thanks for noticing. It was such a hassle to get that one right. I had to dip the camera in the sea, get out again and get in a good position before all the droplets were gone again. You need three hands to do that properly :yeah:

Early in 2009 I corresponded with one of the dev's and suggested that they include the "Ranger" tankers. I never thought I'd see them! :DL

Also, the Hog Islander and Liberty Ship are MUCH better than the SH2/SH3/SH4 versions - the proportions & superstructures look excellent.

Yeah, I don't really like it myself. It looks good when using the periscope or UZO, but feels a little weird when just standing on the bridge. You get used to it after a while though.

Good work iambecomelife. Yes the ship models do look very nice. However, we don't have much variety in the merchant roster at the moment. Looking through the museum for the Brits, I see 2 tanker types and 6 merchant types. A few more wouldn't have gone amiss.

I have the game, and would like to post screenshots, except I can't seem to find where Ubi is storing MY screenshots as there are already bugs that I've taken screens of (and I've not played more than an hour or two max).

The other cheater way of doing it (Printscreen, which they claim is also the screenshot button) does not take a screen capture of what is on the screen but instead what my desktop shows................................ Grrrrrrr....

You're not alone. Some seem to be getting them fine and stored in the root game folder using just PrtScrn, others not. I'm one of them.

Somebody mentioned somewhere using Ctrl+PrtScrn. I've tried it but no go, but I think they maybe re-mapped the Ctrl key from the "detailed" speed etc stuff. I'm going to give that a try.

what was the 'death screen'? how does it display that youve been taken out?
on that note, can you surrender or abandon ship?

The screen starts to fade to black and then fades back in on external view to show your boat for a few seconds, after that you get artsy picture saying how the other kaleuns wished to see you become one of the aces yaadidaa. The last pic might change as you progress, as when you die you can see your 'rank' which in my case was "promising".

thanks stone7, very nice shots. The interior looks pretty good. Im not a fan of that bloom look, though, and the interior lighting in general. that would be the first mod I attempt-an interior lighting mod that helps make the sub darker, and more closed in. Its far to bright IMHO

I haven't had a laugh like this in a while. I almost spilled my coffee all over my desk. At least something SHV presently is valuable for, and I didn't even need to buy it!

Nonetheless, this is a major bug that will surely be fixed. The graphics has clearly been polished a bit since SHIII, though I had hoped that they'd rather invest that time into something that affects game play: campaign, AI, realism and functional features.

Ow yeh! When I started the patrol, I checked Scapa Flow (you can see list of capital ships docked there if you press the name on the map) and there was 4 ships there. :o

Unfortunately, when I got there, all but the Hood had left. (atleast I think it was the Hood. :hmmm: Might've been Nelson too.)

Also, Scapa is a real treasure chest when it comes to merchants. Spotted one large tanker and 3-4 troop transport ships.

Aye there, just finisched my first patrol, i have some screens along some remarks.

In general, i had to get used quite a lot to the controls in the intro. Then in my first partol i found this:

http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/8735/crewbug.jpg (http://img705.imageshack.us/i/crewbug.jpg/)

While @ PD crew still was standing watch.

Quite soon after, i was put wit my nose to the fact that i am going to mis the type XI. We can now talk long and say little, but check the immages, it says all:

Finisched a convoy to the last
Torpedo
88
AA bullit

This, is a pain in the but:
http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/2838/lastboatpatrol1.jpg (http://img19.imageshack.us/i/lastboatpatrol1.jpg/)

the last boat, in a convoy, almost 100% kill, and you run out of 88's. And yea, i allready spend my torps...

http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/6796/lastboatnoaaammo.jpg (http://img684.imageshack.us/i/lastboatnoaaammo.jpg/)

The AA got me an extra ship after it was hit with the one and only stern tropedo. Its the B version which does not have any stock for its stern available.

But here comes the part i missed:
I finisched my patrol. The mission was to sink 50k tons on the East Coast. I sank 58.409 Tons right on top of my target point
http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/9703/patrolifinisched.jpg (http://img34.imageshack.us/i/patrolifinisched.jpg/)

Thing is i could not dock, only refit, or continue/ postpone. Kind of strange is my guess.

Then this happends;

http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/6447/missionfailled.jpg (http://img199.imageshack.us/i/missionfailled.jpg/)

In stead of the 9 ships, totaling 58409 tons, sank right at the target area, i have a mission fail with 16 ships totaling 92137 tons???

Did i mis somethings, or did some just go wrong?

It seems to me that it adds your training mission totals to those afterwards. As leaving Kiel on my 1st Patrol I am still credited with the tonnage sunk from the training mission.:)

Happens to me aaaaalll the time. Just had a large steamer that I hit to the bow go at 8 knots while the whole bowdeck was under water. :roll:

Usually I end up hitting 5-6 ships in a convoy, but with 1 or in good case 2 stragglers, rest get away.

Euhm, oeps, guess that last beer was just about it :P

Thanks mate!

Does anbody know how to increas realism? I started simple to have a nice "trail" But coming home with 100% fuel is not fun.... I rather dont start all over again on the other hand. have done 2 patrol and find myself high in ranking, or is that only for same realism?

Remarkalbe. I would say that this is a naval sim that truly conveys the experince of being at war at sea in a very immersive way. thanks for sharing the pics.

I see on this picture something I noticed in-game once. There is this slight banding in the night sky. I am wondering if this is somehow a kind of technical limitation or if I am just picky. :D

My first SH video for ages!:) It was fun doing it. It will be available in 1080p once Youtube is done encoding:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xw4pfKMJ6Qc

All bells and whistles enabled in 1920x1200.

That one,s good! Only it would be even better if i could watch this one in high resolution.

Thanks, Oscar! It will be available in HD after a while, its 290MB so it might take the Youtube servers half an hour or so.

Tankers are more aggressive then the destroyers in 1939. This guy tried to ram me. He turned right at me and just floored it, only a quick reverse by me saved me by a freaking nose hair.

You think it frays the nerves being depth charged by the Royal Navy? You should try navigating the Kiel Canal in bad weather!

Had to take evasive action to avoid three of these big buggers coming out of the fog, got pretty close to another 4 or so as well, I swear one of them was even Polish, but my crew didn't seem to notice. :o
