The Mad Kpt Patrol Logs (very pic heavy)

mr chris · 01-02-07, 03:04 PM

Well i have final found time to play on my career install of GWX. I have been neglected my career while i have been having a ball playing many Mp games.
My First patrol went well sinking just over 20,000t and i had three hit on the HMS Rodney. But alas the DD's detected me and held me down why the convoy made good there escape. I tryed for 3 days to find the convoy again with no luck what so ever.

Great stuff! Nice pics, what graphics card are you using as the sub hull looks ultra-real.

mr chris · 01-02-07, 03:09 PM

Thanks very much the will be more to come when i get through my second patrol.

My card is a ATI Saphire X850 256mgb. PCI Express.
The sub skin is one of Fubars masterpices. which you can find out more about on this thread.

_Seth_ · 01-02-07, 03:23 PM

Too bad you dont have pics of the famous "truck-sinking"...:rotfl::rotfl:

bigboywooly · 01-02-07, 03:25 PM

Unusual patrol report for you Chris
No destroyers ?
And no friendly subs either :rotfl:

mr chris · 01-02-07, 04:12 PM

@ Stabiz
That coming from yourself means alot

Yep the first two are photoshoped a bit.

@ Seth
I will try and receate the truck sinking at some point if i live long enough

@ BBW
Dont you worry mate i will start to play with the DD's soon just finding my feet want to try and go through the war with this career if i can. But im sure at some point i will get a little cocky and play my usual mad games with DD's

Still to find a friendly wolfpack so far so still to sink a friendly yet:rotfl:
Thats why they call me the Mad Kpt

Hello there mr chris
What your realism settings? If its 100% the results is very good mate

mr chris · 01-02-07, 06:22 PM

Hi there the only things i dont have ticked are the manual TDC and the external cam i just can't play without the cam

I only use it for taking screens though not to cheat.

Agree! I play at 100%, but i use the cam...so it isnt really 100%...

I dont cheat, too much self dicipline, but you never know when a good photo/video opportunity shows up!
And, as always, FRAPS follows in my wake..
