Hello,

first of all congratulations on this great mod. It really feels like an authentic Uboat experience, especially the models and interior have a wunderbar attention to details. One thing I'm missing is changing the lighting from white to red light. Maybe I'm missing the switch or hotkey, it's been some years since I played GWX. Thank you again for your hard work!

Hi Keesh. Thank you for your kind words. I know the team appreciates them.

To answer your question about adjusting the brightness at night... the answer is no... not via our modwork in any case.

I have been on guard duty (my younger self many years ago) in the deep desert before, when overcast at night... or under the canopy of a jungle at night, it gets that dark... and I mean BLACK as ink.

My answer is this: You say you understand the realism aspect.. Endure those few hours as the real watchmen often had to. Dawn will come.

Also, in the evenings and the mornings before sunrise, the night periscope has a larger aperture than the attack scope in GWX-KC just as in real life. Have that in mind as you go about your patrols.

Good hunting.

Red light was a Hollywood fictional construction.

Real U-boats did not use it, so we removed it and replaced it with far more historically accurate lighting.

One of our fellow development team members is derStosstrupp. In real life he is an expert on Type VIIC technical operations.
Also in the mix there was our associate developer "Decafbad" who is an electrical systems expert for the Type VIIC.

Also, our lateral research regarding Type II and Type IX interior lighting strongly suggests that their interior lighting was much the same as the Type VII interiors.

Hi Andreas i think somethings got corupted i would wipe both installs and all save folders and search for any other save Folders you may have created and delete them also then empty your recycle bin this is a must for peace of mind then start a fresh with two new installs its what we had to do when we got a new Alpha Build 8-9-10 alway to Alpha-14 when testing GWX KC.

Thank you for your thoughts. I did delete my SH3 version, all save folders. Deinstalled GWX KC, and reinstalled it. The issue remains when starting in 1939 with the 7/13 Flotilla, with the Uboat starting in grid FG28. But only in that combination. All other Flotillas start correctly in port. The game also crashes a lot. I have tried different careers and at the moment it isn't playable because of the CTD. I had that issue also before I deinstalled my first KC version. I have to check this, but I am under the impression the game crashes whenever I dive. However, for today it has been enough trying around. But I must say KC looks real good. Especially the ships, they pop nicely

It seems like German localization is completely broken or not supported, unfortunately. Many words also do not fit and are cut short etc.

Hope this will be addressed.

Is it normal for me to hear wind sounds no matter where I am in the boat and even under water? Is there a way that I could at least lower them a bit?

ALSO: how set spread angle? I see it on the tactical map, but my eye simply can't find it on the periscope.

Hi Nippelspanner! What happened to your account! It is good to hear from you again after all these years.

In the ways that I can, I am having this looked into. Keep watch as best you can.
