SH3 to SH4
 

Personally I found GWX to be incredibly great preparation for SH4. I wasted no time worrying about the Japanese escorts, just applied what I knew from the Atlantic, and concentrated on learning to send torpedoes where I wanted! Great cruise Penelope. I hope you return to visit even after GWX 2. I know I'll be over there just as soon as my career is over and I'll be bugging you for help.

@Joea yes, very similar in realism options. Trigger Maru changes some of the percentages because the diobolical Ducimus doesn't want us using the external camera to spot his evil periscope depth depth charging airplanes.:rotfl:Now swdw is set to join the evil plane conspiracy with RFB. We're doomed I tell you, doomed!:eek:

-"Ducimus's evil plane!"
-"Ducimus's evil plane!"
-"Ducimus's evil plane!"
-"It's just a model!"

Sorry...couldn't resist!

You've had a heck of a weekend Beast :o

Take a breather :yep:


RDP

I can't even imagine what that avie would've been if I hadn't spent the whole weekend either here at the lab or at home watching TV! :rotfl:

Here is a sample RR if you are interested in a sig thing you are thinking about:

Penelope_Grey,

You ville report to zee flotilla office at vonce! Vee must discuss your uniform violation.:stare:

You ver to capture zee schweinboot... not enjoy zee schweinboot.

Put down zee icecream cone! Zis ees not proper U-booten fooden!:stare:


:stare: :stare:

:stare: :stare: :stare:

Looks like a defection to me!!! I think the Khaki uniform works for Penelope! The ice cream is very good under a hot Pacific sun! :rotfl: Not to mention you get one hell of a tan!!!

I have to admit, i love my plane settings, and while i dont brag, im not ashamed to crow a little about the plane settings i applied in TM. Instead of typing out a long, boring, drawn out post, ill just say..

- THey can visually see farther then any unit in the game, being high up in altitude and all. :rotfl:

- They can spot you submerged from a range of about 2,000 meters or so.

- Their bombs and depth charges have been made more lethal, and depending on the loadout they carry, will explode at around 50-60 feet, or 160ish feet. ( if i remember the numbers right, this was research by tater)


So even though you have radar, and can spot them from way off, they still present a threat. They can nail you if they drop the bombs in the right spot, and at the least, they will advertise your presence in the area which will make nearby destroyer typed units to come around and look for you.

I think they're a very real theat now, in some ways, probably more dangerous then aircraft in Sh3. If your smart, you shoudlnt have any problem with them, but they are dangerous, and historicaly responsible for the loss of a few boats, via the characteristics ive described above.

edit:

BTW, ive been working ferverishly on a new versioin of TMaru, ill post a preview sometime today.

Blond hair, blue eyes, und zee tan???

Hmmm.:hmm:

:o Zowie! :lol:

Oh my.....:D

...time to leave the dark side....welcome to the winning side!:lol:

Zounds!!!!
 

The dark siggy with the submarine is the finest I've seen lately! Too bad I'm a TMophite. Loyalty is a terrible thing. I have this feeling swdw will have something to say about that. RFB just gets better and better. But some of the goodies can be used with TM so who knows what the future holds. I'm pretty committed to doint an SH3 career after I'm through with my Kraken career. On the 15th cruise and RSRD is just throwing the convoys at me like TM never did. I've tracked three convoys at a time with 12 destroyers between them! I thought RSRD was supposed to REDUCE traffic. I'm seeing dramatic increases in merchies but especially DDs and DE's. I'm playing shooting gallery with my MK18s. :arrgh!:

The new sig I created. I like it. :D

So do I :up: I cant seem to get rid of external views either. Hell, if I turned on environmental effects and my graphics card is heaving, I'm damn well going to enjoy them! :rotfl:

Nice work on your medal. You can print it out and stick it on your shirt and pretend you're yonder chick from 'Down Periscope' :arrgh!:

Say that entire post out loud, and in the accent. I just did, now I cant stop giggling. :rotfl:
