Default Strange things in GWX

I don't know if anyone here has ever noticed before but, just aft of the Captains bunk in a Type IIA, there are two greasy hand prints on the wall and the left hand has five fingers and a thumb. Also, while leaving Kiel, I came up on a tugboat and another ship that was all brown with two masts. At the top of each mast was a light. The ship wouldn't 'target' in my UZO, so I couldn't identify it. Does anyone know what kind of ship this could be?

That would be a light ship. They're basically just floating light houses.

Those are called "Easter Eggs" Actually there are several hand prints.

while enduring a depth charge attack....i was in weapon officer view (by right clicking on his icon) and i spun round to face the chief....and noticed that the operator of the dive planes .....his leg was twitching nervously!!!!.....his feet tapping quietly on the floor plates.....this probably happens all the time...but noticing it during that tense time was brilliant.....things like that still happen and ive been on this for 4 years !!!

Love it

Since when? Actually in this case it's "sense".

And yes, there are fishermen, dolphins, whales, blimps (with a wolf in them), a ghost ship and a lot of other cools stuff.

This is strange!

Look at depth (41 meters) and my crew is still on bridge?

I returned to base ... with one torpedo left. Surfaced.



This is strange in GWX 3.0

It also occurs in RUB, NYGM and every other permutation of SH3, including stock, and SH4 as well. It doesn't happen often, so it gets blamed on whatever mod is being used at the moment.

I never had it before, probably you are correct "it doesn't happen often" ... strange that they could not fix it in SH4?

I stand corrected.

And in this case, it's cool stuff.

Rafael, the crew left standing on the bridge in certain circumstances has been corrected in GWX.

What other mods are you using on top of GWX? If I were you, I'd examine them closely.
