Personally, I love this mod, and have never experienced any of the problems posted about by some of these poor folks. In the 4 (well, 3 and 1/2) patrols I've made since I loaded up this mod (first with the .36 version, then the .39 version, and now GW), I've sunk about 30 ships. None have been "invincible" or required an inordinate number of torps to sink them - a few have exploded and sunk in a few minutes, the majority have probably sunk within a couple of hours or so, and a small number have needed a third torpedo after several hours of waiting. I've finished off maybe 5 or 6 with my deck gun after hitting them with just one torp, usually averaging about 30-40 shots apiece.

So, like a lot of us, my experience with this thing has been pretty near perfect (though the deck gun seems maybe a tad nerfed - but that's another thread ). However, obviously some people here really do seem to be experiencing situations that are just crappy - I know I'd be ticked if it were taking me 10 or more torpedos to sink something. It's too bad the solution for them probably isn't as simple as "update your drivers" or some of the other things that used to solve those tech forum problems over on IL-2, 'cause they're really missing out on something sweet when it works.
