Ca you include the LBO / no 9km stuff as an optional mod? The 9km looks a bit meh on high end graphics. Or so it seems to me after goinf from minimal detail to full blown graphics galore.

Any connection? You used an alternate fix as default with the old one available still?
EDIT: Nevermind this, you answered while I was writing the post

Why this small change? Any subtleties I'm missing or is it simple a tiny nerf?

AKA I have to check the map/captain's log to see if I sunk a ship? Remember the captain's log icon in the lower right flashes whenever an item is added to the log. Like a ship sunk.

- Scene.dat is normally 8KM. Im half tempted to put it back to that. ALthoguh id really like to put it at 12KM, but im afraid of extra system strain, and im pretty sure the fog rendering will be FUBAR. Right now im thinking i might leave it at 9KM, particuarlly because i dont want to rebalance anything.
- explained again in above post.
- small depth charge change, Primarly for one reason. To *slighly* reduce chance of DD's blowing their own asses off. Although id be better off tightening up the depth accuracy. Probablem is by doing so, i make the escorts even more accurate - hence more deadly. Which offsets the balance im trying to achieve in my sensors tweakings. So the only other option is to reduce the DC explosion radius. Problem therein is if you bring it in too far, it becomes something of a joke. Sooo.... in the end i took off half a meter. Kinda neat how everything ties together huh? Almost like pulling on a loose string on a sleeve and watching your shirt unwravel.
- Yeah i know, if i could find a way to remove the flashing, id do so. My hope is people focus more on whats going on in the battle, and less on the lower right hand corner. People are going to cheat no matter what i do, so by that logic, why mod the game at all? So, ifhave an idea, I may as well stick to it, and let people do what they may, not my problem or peroggative.
edit: then again, i could always change it into something more comical.
Its late, and im getting cranky, i think im gonna turn in.
