Hi!

Have you incorporated into this release, the on / off trigger mentioned by you?

Very good job. :up:

Thanks.

With a full respect to all the gorgeous mods that we have seen in a last few months (correct me if I'm wrong...) I am deeply convinced that water stream for VIIc is the most important single mod that has been reached.

Two things, that we considered impossible, in a hunt for SH4 visuals;
surface transparecy and water stream from sub... 50% seems to be busted soon, due to your brain Rubini...

Five stars, Mate:up: :up: :up: :up: :up:

( just don't name it "final", please... ;) )

Please, don't write poems on your devotion to IX series, simply... VIIc was spine of Kriegsmarine...

I think it's at least arguable. But that alone is a geat compliment for Rubini, I think.

But in the end it comes down to one player's preferences.

If you are more into realism and gameplay then you would probably like something like OLC's Gui better.
If you get most out of the game by great emersion through fancy graphics and atmospheric sound effects then this is now one of the greatest improvements, that's true.

Since Racerboy did his exhaust mod by using hardcoded particle generating functions it was clear that something like this can be achieved. But it is still a *lot* of hard work to find out where the to trigger everything, how to set the parameters of the particle generators and so on.

So it's a really impressive work, Rubini is doing here. And I'm glad that he puts so much time and effort into it to share his results with the community.

Agreed, this is a very nice mod. I can't wait for 2.1 and RB's effects.

I agree. Mods are a taste matter. The important is to have choices and always a better game for us. This water stream mod for example, is really good, better than SH4 water stream implementation in the end, but really, far from perfect, mainly due SH3 engine limitations.

By the way the type VIIC is ready. I will release a new version of the entire mod with the Type IXd2 reworked now with "over water" controller and the type VIIC. This new version will also contain the wake bug fix for all playable uboats. Here a pic with 9m/s wind:

Now I need to go to bed.:cool:

See you tomorrow guys.

Excellent work my friend!

Absolute fantastic, Rubini. Thank you very much. Can`t wait for this one.

Is the VIIC version also for the VIIB version? And is it compatible with gwx 1.3?

Sailor Steve 04-03-08 01:54 PM

Just looking at a screenshot I'm amazed at how much that adds.:sunny:

Rubini 04-03-08 02:52 PM

Awesome, been looking forward to this. Tks Rubini :up:

edit: I know I should check back through the thread :oops: , 'cause the answer is bound to be in there somewhere, but can this be installed mid-patrol?
