I think I most likely have a old version of the manual... if so what was the gwx site again.
Site link is in my Sig.

Manual V.2.03 was included in the download/installation files.
Manual V.2.04 is included on the website.

What is enhanched damage effects? This is not currently answered in either version but is being added to the current WIP manual.....however:

Enhanced Damage Effect:
This option adds several effects intended to better simulate the effects on surface ships (to include surfaced submarines) of hits by bombs, gunfire, and torpedoes, including:

• Oil slicks and trails
  • • Large oil slicks and oil trails in the path of damaged ships, especially tankers
    • Oil slick color is now less violet-colored and closer to the real color of oil
• Fires and Explosions
  • • Reduced some of the impact of fires on display FPS rate compared to stock Silent Hunter III
    • Corrected stock Silent Hunter III bugs with catastrophic aircraft explosions, small fires, and depth charge detonations
    • More splinters in explosions with splinters, and more explosions with splinters in general
    • Large secondary explosions
    • Improved fire and smoke effects
    • More below-water explosion effects and bubbles as ships sink
• Sound effects
  • • All fires now have sound effects
    • You can hear fires in large damaged ships through hydrophones in some conditions
    • Added and adjusted new sound effects for explosions
Note: The new effects will not always appear, since the effect depends on where the target ship is hit.
