Default boat not keeping depth!!!

lo all

i finally managed to get the water stream and exhaust smoke mods to work by using bertus's combined mod.....excellent.....now

the only prob is that it nullifies the neutral bouyancy mod.

when i dive to 200m and run silent....my boat continues to dive...forcing me to go to 3knots to raise her.
as soon as i do this the dd's hear me and hound me again!!!.

what files do i have to tweek on my IXB to get the neutral effect back.

and if your not using the mod....how do you keep silent without sinking to the bottom??.

hope you can help kaleuns.....youve never let me down before:rotfl:

Are you using the crash dive command?

In GWX (And stock?) if you crash dive and then order another depth before your
boat has leveled off it can cause depth keeping issues.

letum: in gwx the developers removed the positive bouyancy of the boats.

i was using a mod that returned this. the exhaust mod conflicted with it and now my boat decends after a certain depth on any speed under 3knots.

but when i go to 3knots the dd's pick me up again as im no longer silent.


Badger: this is the mod im using.
thanks for the offer though mate.

i think its a tweek in the nssuboat9b file...but its goobledygook to me!!!
