Hello friends
:Kaleun_Cheers:

I'm currently running cobalt's VIIC/41 out of Lorient on May 8th, 1944. SH3 commander tells me this sub has a crush depth of 350m.

The problem is the depth gauge only goes to 260m! Is there a 50m/450m depth gauge mod, same as the ones in an XXI? I could use to replace the standard 25m/260m depth mod. Seems like I've seen it before, but I can't remember where.

Thank you for any help!

I found something called "400 Meter Depth Gauge Mod by Captain America" here

But it's from 2006 and the links don't work. :k_confused:

Sweet!

Instead of loading it directly into the game files, I made it into a little JSGME mod. Put it into my mods file and activated it. Works perfect.

The new gauges show up in the ship interior AND the gauges in the bottom right hand corner. Doesn't interfere with anything else either. Great.


Thank you @Anvar1061 sir! :Kaleun_Salute:

I'm glad I found a job for you!

Heading towards grid BE22, per orders. An unusual destination, but let's see what happens. It's May, so weather is good. If I recall, water is calm there.

Should intercept a convoy from the USA, or even better, some single ships, I bet. I Hope!

for a change of pace, I'm listening to this youtube playlist in the background, pretending it's the Gramophone. Not bad!

Weird this video is not avalaible in my country



Just use youtube to mp3 converter then Put the mp3 in your gramophone folder.

I could, but I prefer to use sites like youtube externally. There's tons of German, American and British WW2 era music there. I doubt if I could ever get to the end of it.

Here's a better link to the full playlist, the last link didn't show it:

I've been looking around this community site - dang, what a rich resource of mods! They're old, but - who cares? Not me. They're new and interesting for me, and from where I'm sitting, that's all that matters.

Thanks again @Anvar1061 :Kaleun_Salute:
