Default I'm sinking on the surface.


Rain rain rain - verdammt - rain by two weeks ! What a patrol - ships
going nearby, i'm out of torps, 1000km to Vaterland and deckgun is
useless because of rain!
Kaleun's - help!! overhere!! - i'm in need of mod which brings to me
a clear heaven. Of course - i'm GWX 2.1 user.
And i'm somewhere between Ireland and North America : no sun = no coordinates.


BTW - skin presented above is one of the best i saw in my vault!
Author - Wolfehunter. Big thanks, Wolfie - great work

i wouldnt worry about the rain so much.

Your U-boat looks as if it has been in moth ball for about 60 years!

report back to HQ and have that thing inspected fore to aft before it falls apart on you mid patrol!

Yeah weather sucks sometimes. But can be a big help sometimes. I just started a new career and in the first days of the war I snuck into Dunkirk and LeHavre and sunk one Large troop ship in each (24000 BRT a piece) both at night and heavy rain... Getting out of Dunkirk was kinda hairy though and weather was a big help.

Anyway, what mods are you using lutzow? "Your" water looks much better than "mine" ( this line out of context would be really funny) - would you mind sharing your JSGME? And how the heck did you get that flag on your sub?


Thanks!

I am running GWX 2.1 as well but my water looks little bit "duller" or maybe it is just your screen cap. I will check the other links. Thanks!

If you installed it right you still only get flags showing on subs that have the flag POLE.

Not all subs have the pole. V11B does, and V11C i think, don't know about 11A or IXB/C.

RbsFlagsrar from Asanovic site working perfect on type VIIB and VIIC.
Flag on type IIA doesn't work.
IID - not tested.
Roadhogg has right - there must be a flagpole.

go to 25 meters, all stop, map view, tc 1024x and let the time go by... once you hear something, go hunting.. once the Co2 gets high, surface and maybe the rain is gone...

thats what i usually do...

The Real Weather Fix mod by Stiebler and SubType Zero works very well!
You can run his exe file or edit the Scene.dat file manually with MiniTweaker or S3D with the following:
WindHeadingChangeSpeed to 0.01
WindSpeedChangeSpeed to 0.0015
ChangeTimeMin to 2.00
ChangeTimeMax to 5.00
RandomWindSpeedMax to 0.005
RandomWindSpeedVariationSpeed to 0.007
RandomWindHeadingVariationSpeed to 0.007
RainIntensityChangeSpeed to 0.017

I have used this and is the best one yet, another bit of a cheat is to save often, and when the weather goes bad exit patrol & reload to the prior save, this will give you about 4 days of the weather you saved at!
BTW, I love your skin, it certainly looks the part, what a rust bucket!

If your using OLC's super mod then it will clear up soon. Keep going.

Nice skin Lutzow... how do you like the new wooden deck?

I think that's a great skin!
I've time to track it down for a d/l, since it's time to start another carrer.
Got greedy & overconfident with the last patrol. Just had to spend the last aft eel on a freighter, yeah that escort has nothing on me - right. Got sunk by a stinkin little corvette with a lucky drop, in 1940 no less. Now that was just embarrasing.
