Hi guys, Will it be neccesary to start a new career after installing Update 3 (when its released)?
I ask because if it will require a restart, i will prefeer to wait untill it comes out to start my new career. I can play some more SH3 untill it comes out.


If it doesnt require a new career i will happily continue my current one. :)


Thanks!

Yes, Update 3 will need career restart :yep:

Thanks Fifi. :salute:

What about reversing the darkness of sea depth color on the nav map?
I think deeper should be darker.

There is a mod somewhere in the download section to change nav map as your liking...right now i don’t have time to search it, sorry.

Update 3 with new subs will be probably released on Thursday morning (here in France)
Except if insurmountable issue is found :haha:

Guys, sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you change uboat in SH4 OM?
I mean, in SH3 i could change uboat type anytime i was in port, provided i had the prestige cost of the uboat. But here i dont see any place where i can "purchase" a different uboat.


Say i start my career in a type 2. Then i want to move on to a type 7, and maybe later i change my mind and want a type 9.
Where exactly do i "change" my sub?


Sorry for this Xtra noob question, but i havent played SH4 in quite a while!


Thanks!

SH4 is completely different from SH3 in that matter.
You can’t « buy » a sub type with your renown points.
All you can purchase is equipment when available...

When many very good patrols accomplished, game may propose you a new sub type of the latest built. Up to you to accept or decline.

Don’t ask me how many patrols or tonnage you need, because i don’t know :D

In real life, kaleuns often sailed the same baby from start to end, and very few of them changed types...except the best leaders sometimes.

What you can do is to start more than one career to test different U-Boat types, and see how long you can make on each type :yep:
Make sure to type the saves names very different though...

Hope that helps :salute:

Ah man. I must say thats rather dissapointing. I love to use a Type2 early war to pester those brits near their coasts, then move on to a T7 to bugger them on the western approaches, and sometimes switch to a T9 to plague the Americans :arrgh!:


Oh well, i guess ill stick with a Type 7. I assume i do get an option to upgrade the specific class when they become available. Right? like from a 7b to a 7c, later to a XX!, etc.


Thanks for the information Fifi!

I believe you should get the upgrade from a VIIB to a VIIC when time and enough points gathered ... but i confess i didn’t play career enough longer to see that, because i decided to enhance this nice mod first :oops:

When i will be done with those new subs importation, i may start a career and see how it handles. That was Lurker’s job you know, i’m Really not familiar with what was done.

Maybe someone else could answer you better than me :06:

I must say im very glad you did!! :haha:


Thanks Fifi!

:Kaleun_Cheers:


Actually we (with Propbeanie & s7rikeback) have problems to insert the IID2 correctly in career mode (the type IID with wintergarden)
So if we can’t before Thursday, i’ll Release Update 3 as it is for the moment.
Hoping you will not bother...

Hi Guys
If you have chosen "American Career" and accept the starting date then your boat will be a type II.
I selected Fredrich Schultz as my Captain.
If August is selected which is the default start date then you will have a type II.
Advancing the starting date to the next option will open up a larger range of boats you can choose from.
I started in September rather than August and from the selection showing chose a type IX.
Whether the Captains name has any bearing on these choices I cannot say.

Peter

American career?? :o
I think you typed to fast :D

Note that i don’t think any captain name has influence on boat selection :yep:

is it included in Monsun Unit damage from smoke and/or fires mod? http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=5185

Nope...and it will not for the moment. Quite busy trying to figure out some stuff :yep:

Hi fifi
Great work your doing for this great mod!

Will the new submarines be out on thursday?
And Will my save games be compatible with the new version?


Best Regards

Kieldk

I can reply to your second questions. Saves won't be compatible

Niume is right. No saves compatible.

Yes i release the mod update 3 on Thursday morning here.

Minor details will not be fixed for Thursday, but nothing really annoying.
It could be fixed later on.

Ive heard there have been problems with monsun regarding the game ctd when getting new con Towers ,
Is this fixed in your compilation?

I didn’t experienced this yet. Maybe it’s gone, maybe not...
I’ve read there is a turn around in case.
For the moment nothing has been done to this matter anyway.
