Two things about GWX

mangaroca · 12-28-06, 06:08 PM

1) In Navigation Training I've noticed that when my boat is in the standstill, she actually kinda "shakes"... Is this a bug or does it have something to do with the positive buoyancy feature???

2) My eyes might be wrong but... are the subs' textures identical to the ones from TGW Mod???

Cheers!

1) I have been unable to replicate what you describe.

2) Yes they are the same with the exception of being re-sized and placed into their respective .dat files to improve performance/reduce CPU load.

1. If you mean how it drifts backward or forward and turns, that's stock. If you mean how it rises a few metres, that's a GWX feature.

Shakes ? or rolls in the swell ?

Are you sure it's not a 'frame rate' issue ? :hmm:

Sounds a bit like it to me. I actually had my boat do a foxtrot on me a few times (actually calling it a foxtrot is being too nice it was more like the shakes Rasputin got after he sucked down a couple arsenic brownies) at the start of missions before I decided that yeah it was a good time to update my video drivers. After that it stopped, I believe it started right after I'd installed a big mod (RuB I think at the time) and that probably caused more graphical load which lead to the shakes.

May want to try that, update the drivers and see what happens.

No no no... My FPS is "a no problem"! And the boat WAS shaking... Little, rapid moves sideways, as if she was starting to turn left and right than left again about twice per second... I could only see this when not moving forward and viewing my own boat by "<" or ">" keys at an almost miximum zoom. Try that at a standstill by pressing e.g. "<" button than place Your camera at the bow lookint towards the stern and zoom in...

Strange thing... After I started sailing forward the shaking stopped. When I stopped the boat again there was no shaking anymore... :/

WTF?
