Just curious. (I have SH4 and SH4 add-on, but not installed.) I recall the jelly water affects of SH4 which looked really bad. Has that been fixed in 1.5 or with TMO or RFB?

I recall that SH4 had a replay capabilitity, but I did not really test it out.

One problem I have with SH3/GWX is that the graphics (external) are absolutely stunning. On the other hand, I know that I should really stay inside the ship. Is it possible in SH4/TMO or SH4/RFB to stay inside the ship, but later when the action is over watch how a torpedo attack on a convoy looked or the watch the follow on DE hunt for your sub?

Thanks.

Yeah, still looks like jello in 1.5 with my nVidia cards... and the clouds are zoomin sometimes too. Makes me keep double checking to see if I'm on 8x TC.

Don't know if the environmental mod I've heard folks speak of addresses it or not.

That is an excellent question, and I think the answer is yes. But I only played with it once and I recall that it didn't work exactly as I suspected it would.

For instance I didn't know that you would be allowed (at any point in the replay) to assume control and start playing from that point. I remember pausing the replay or trying to fast fwd and then I found a spot I wanted to watch and when I chose (what I thought was) "play" it put me in command of the boat and I couldn't get back to replay mode. So I'll have to try that again...
