just tested the VIIC41, this boat lays a bit higher, perfect it seams...

Try the VIIB. I think its the worst. I had the VIIA first and it didnt have any problems either.

I loaded the SH3 to SH5 Sub Physics MOD overwiting some files for UHS and all boats draft settings appear to be good for me. All boat Pitch, Roll and Bob up and down a lot better now.

sounds good, cant find it :hmmm:

Ill give that a shot then.

Hey, I hope everyone knows, that this mod is not intended to be installed mid patrol. You have to be in port when you install this. Otherwise, your boat will sit very low in the water. This is a known issue.

Edit: Here is the page in this thread where this fact was found out.

2nd Edit: I may be missing the point here, and you guys might very well have something else causing the surface depth problems, but I just wanted to make sure that this was not the cause.

ohh with UHS it is also sitting a tiny little bit too deep in historycal or campaign start in port missions, but depends on sub... the VIIC41 seams perfect, VIIA/B to deep, VIIC a tiny little bit to deep...

with above mentioned SH3 to SH5 physics mod, all subs are a little bit to high (only my view), but what i realy like is the little positive buancy, it allows you to hold dept below 180 meters with only 1 knots speed.

You know what would solve this whole issue? If we had the ability to trim the boat manually . This way giving positive or negative buancy. It was requested multiple times for sh-2/3/4/5 but the devs never ever did anything with it.

My boat was also low in water and the scope too until I edited the cfg files and restored the stock values. It not matter if u load the mod in dock or outside, the mod is setting the boat depth too low, around 14m compared to the stock where is 12 m. ddrgn said it was his personal preference, not necessary a historical fact.

Which .cfg did you change, and what values did you change in them? I would not mind trying to duplicate your results.

Allready tried this in the campaing while in port. It didnt do anything for me.

All cfg files in the subfolders within the main submarine folder. The cfg files for 7a, 7b, 7c and 7c41.
For example, this mod has set the scope depth to:
PeriscopeDepth=14.0;meters 14.5

Stock is:
PeriscopeDepth=12;meters 12.5


Surface depth is set to:
SurfaceDepth=5.25;meters

but you can change it back to the stock:
SurfaceDepth=4.5;meters

That's what I did and since then I had no problems keeping the correct depth. My only problem now is the sub gravity center. Was altered and now the scope is not perfectly lined with the horizon when I zoom at max on the sides.

Hey thanks! This finally fixed the problem for me! GIVE THIS MAN AN IRON CROSS PLEASE!!!

Just found out i do have lots of crashes with this combination. I had crashes without sh-3 to sh-5 sub physics enabled but it does seem to happen more now though.

Give the Cross the the MOD author...:salute:
