I managed to sneak into Lock Ewe....avoiding mines by only a few feet, getting hit by a mine, flooding all of the compartments except bow and stern torpedo, managed to save my self from the flooding, losing my aft batteries, both periscopes, hydrophone, and my hydrophone operator...poor Wilhelm, RIP. then after i managed to sneak in, guess what i found? A Nelson Battleship! Oh joy! I sink this, then i double my tonnage. So, I dare surfacing to get a quick lock with the UZO, set all four tubes, FIRE.....and they miss...went under the boat....reload, but set to impact, and four hits across the board.... go in a little closer...surface, then i get attacked by 3 ships, managed to fire my last bow torps.....2 hits.....turn...hit again from the stern, and the Nelson sinks! :arrgh!:.......

Then after it finally sinks, I have to get out again.....just when i managed to get out of range of the ships...i hit another freaking mine...on the starboard side this time...flooding all the compartments again......losing 2 men..but i managed to save my self...again...... then when i surface, out run the little trawler and get into open sea....I meet a random destroyer...........this just isnt my patrol....:x:nope::damn:...i managed to sneak away, but i start sinking from some unknown reason...darn you Time compression.........good news is i recorded it all...except that last part, so a new vid is on the way.....and U-131 and me are going to meet that Royal Navy again.....

I can't wait to watch, thats one hell of a patrol. That was also bound to be risky in such a harbour.
Good effort though:up:

I knew it was risky, but i fell to temptation, almost done with the video, just need to upload it. I managed to record me getting hit by a mine...would have avoided it if i didnt turn, but i was worried

EDIT: link is further down now

How did you recorded it?
It's a program named fraps, just go to their website for the free version, drawbacks are you can only record 30 seconds each time you press the record key and the program puts its site name on the video. I would get the full version but its the classic "I'm broke and my parents just got me my braces" story....I think the guy who invented braces was torturing children one day and got the bright idea, "Hey lets put metal that sores the teeth, makes it impossible to eat, then sell it for cash to the parents...muahahahahaha"....yes i have a strange imagination for all those wondering

Actually, as a parent, I have to tell you the awful truth: that's exactly what happens. As soon as you have kids you say "their teeth aren't perfect...get braces!" "Their feet aren't perfect...corrective shoes!" "Their eyes aren't perfect...glasses!"

Of course if we really loved our kids we'd leave them gap-toothed:88) , pigeon-toed:cry: and blind:doh: , but torturing their delicate little self-consciousness is so much fun.

Ha thats funny....also something to remember...I'd like to get after the doctor...what was supposed to be a routine trip to change out the wire, resulted in me getting my bottom braces.....i think im only eating half of my food now...the other half gets stuck between the gaps..... But in any case im uploading a renewed version, same old video but with titles, credits, and 1 song...yes 1...i could put 40, but i doubt beatles songs go with german u-boats taking down the british fleet:rock:

I grew up with the Beatles; in fact, I'm one of the only people I know who actually saw them live.

However, my grammaphone contains nothing that isn't 1940s and German. When we get SHIV, I'll start loading up the jazz.
