Yeah, considering the jump in res + AA I am still getting pretty decent FPS for a more midlevel system. And manual TDC now works as intended, so I'm a happy subsimmer. Gonna wait for the modders to update their excellent work before I start a patrol though. SH4 looks GREAT even on medium settings. It did before the patch as well, but AA and true 1280x1024 definitely helps.

About the Chronometer: A better fix than in SH3
 

I see the auto-speed function of the chronometer does't appear to be fixed as it was in SH3. Now, I put forward this for your consideration as a proposal:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...933#post497933

I don't want something that gets me spotted but also something that gives me (I don't mind working speed out myself actually, pretty easy with the 3 min rule or the use of the various table of bearing change vs. time and slide rules around) a reasonably accurate speed.

What do you all think?

Did the captains log bug get fixed in 1.2?

Personally dissapointed no Chronometer.

The 3 most important bugs for me were

1) The FSAA
2) CTD when pressing "A"
3) No Chronometer which is stated should be usable as per manual.

3m15s is quite a long time when trying to make a snapshot. :down:

However as my fat singing friend says "2 outta 3 ain't bad" :p

The FSAA and resolution changes definately made this game pretty. I finally now see why you guys like post particle filtering. Untill this patch that feature was really ugly at 1650x1080 rez.

My sys did take a hit in framerates as expected. Had to lower fsaa from 6x to 4x and AF to 4x but game now looks sweet.

Chop or stutter in external view has returned with this patch.

Big step forward though. :up:


Edit: The devdebug fix got me an extra 10fps. Back to 6x FSAA and 8xAF. Sweet!
Edit: I'm not convinced FSAA is actually working yet for me, but it sure looks better at this resolution.

Now that is obvious chronometer is not fixed, please make fixing chronometer function to obtain speed a priority for patch 1.3.

I tried this on v1.1 patched to v1.2 with RFB113
 

-------------
I did a quick test run in Torp Attack school

Pressed Q - W - then Q again. showed opening one tube after another, did not close the previous.

Am doing a vanilla reinstall and will step climb v1.1 then v1.2

will post results.

I'm sure the chrono is on the list for the next patch. I suspect it's a tricky bug, otherwise it would surely have been incorporated within today's 1.2 release.

YES. In fact I have had that since before the patch. I thought maybe it was just me but seriously if anybody knows a fix plz let me know.

Also something weird. Maybe I am being picky but I have the game running 1680x1050 and 6aa with adaptive aa enabled as well as 16af and uh well the game looks way better but still jaggy to me. Guess I am just being picky.

edit I take that last part back. I set adaptive aa to quality mode (was on performance) and the game looks fantastic now.

Four pages later and this still cracks me up letterboy1 :rotfl:

At 68% and can't wait to crank the FSAA and res through the roof! Subsim is unreal ... has everything one needs ... and has it FAST.
.

Tricky? This feature worked in SH3. Its described in manual as operational. There are no excuses for it not to work.

Very cool, downloading right now. :rock:
Injoy everybody :up:

SW

Damn forgot about the no hydrophones bug at peri depth and thats not been fixed either. :damn:

You guys are on crack! I was hoping for more than eye candy. How about torps circling around, sailors repeating themselves again and again, lagg on acceleration, mission errors, campaign problems, things that actually effect the game not the quality of your screen shot.

Sad really sad.......:roll:

DL'ing now but it didn't mention it in the list of fixes. I have greatly lowered my game lag by just selecting "Messages sent" from the drop down screen. I don't know why but it seems to help a lot.
BTW- I'm going to assume you need to remove mods before applying the 1.2 patch? Is this correct?
