I have not edited anything in the files as stated in the read me. I'm like you-I want to install via JSGME and play. I thought I'd play it as is and go from there and have been happy with the results. I don't have that many hours with it installed still, so I haven't seen everything there is to see yet.

I'm not sure about the nights yet. I've only done one night time submerged attack(yesterday and I had a little issue with crash diving while submerged-:doh:). I haven't done any surface attacks at night yet, and probably won't at the point I am in the war-too many radar equipped escorts running around in late 1943,....... with hedgehogs--shudder.

My nights were already fairly light, but I don't think unrealistically so. My old rig had a ATI card and the nights were darker than a well digger's arse. My old, tired eyes had it pretty difficult with my nose pressed up against the monitor to see what I was aiming at. My wife always asked "What are you doing? There's nose prints on the screen!" :D

When I got a new rig last year with a NVIDIA card, the first thing I noticed was how much lighter the nights were. Sometimes I think maybe a little unrealistically bright(still not sure yet), but it is easier on the eyes. :sunny:
I've read somewhere where that is a characteristic of NVIDIA cards.

Hope this helps.
:)

Well,if it works for you and you are happy with it then i'm gonna give it a shot.I MAY (not sure) edit the sensors.dat files as the author states this will allow the watch to spot ships at up to 20km away.Having said that,i'm not even sure if this is even possible in real life as 20km is a bloody long way away!
ATI cards DO tend to render shadows slightly darker in some games,and this can be beneficial where stealth/shadows are important,such as in another favourite game of mine 'thief - deadly shadows' :up:
I'm gonna install this before next patrol!

Thanks for your replies SB,and for mentioning this mod in the first place.

:rotfl2:
Been there done that,minus the wife of course,i'm not married :O:
You should have told her "dear,I am studying the fantastic anatomy of this greenfly on my screen,an absolute marvel of nature!" LOL
