.....I should have specified the 3D characters aspect. Didn't mean to get you torqued Steamwake,LOL!!

It's just yet another little but annoying glitch that, I assume, was overlooked (was there ANY QC done on this game prior launch? Sheesh!). I guess I'll just incorporate a "stand down from general quarters" command in SHIV speech.

Fish40: that's another good point in that once at GQ you can't switch 'em "off". Now that I think about it, when you go to silent running shouldn't they stop? I'll have to check that but I'm betting there's no change.

It's ironic that SH3 didn't animate damage control personnel but had the leaking pipes which would eventually stop once the "notional" damage control part had done it's job. SH4 has the animated damage control personnel but has non-stop leaking pipes which don't stop leaking "graphically" (without a mod anyway) despite the apparent non-stop diligent efforts of the animated DC crew!!!

I do fervently hope if there's ever another sub sim that the company involved (hopefully one that doesn't have an "Ubi" type $$ at all costs attitude) does the smart thing and use some of the serious members of this forum (i.e. the main modders) to do QC on any beta and hopefully avoid silly little glitches like this in the future. Here's hoping.

Having said that, there's nothing on the market that can really compare to SH3 and SH4, warts and all!!
