are you dialing-up your speed manually by clicking on the EOT for certain speed or are you using the 1/3 or 2/3 speed indicators on the EOT?

secondly, prior to firstly, what version of SH4 are you licensing (1.3, 1.4, 1.5) and what is your mod-set (Stock, GFO, TMO, etc)?

thirdly, prior to secondly, in what folder did you install SH4?

Oh, thanks for the update. I have tried the seawolf mod with a clean dl of steams uboat missions, and also with fotrs. other mods will the subs at speed, such as the astute class.

I have tried the 1/3 2/3 and also clicking the button to adjust the speed for the actual knots.

steam library/steamapps/common/silent hunters wolves of the pacific

thanks for the reply.

steam is installed in the c:/programes86/steam

but again, I installed another sub mod, the astute and it does the 30+ knots submerged.

Thanks for the reply

MM has it. Mods will not "take" properly with the path to the game involving a Program Files folder. You are in "C:\Program Files (x86) \Steam \SteamApps \common \Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific", and while it might look like that mod(s) took, only the graphics files were kept. Anything with "*.ini" or "*.cfg" especially, were rolled-back by the wonderful Windows 'security' features in UAC and other "technologies". Newer games do fine, but just about anything that is DirectX v9.0c based will have trouble, and SH4 and JSGME do. Refer to Moving a Steam Installation and Games if you have to move SH4. If you have a valid 2nd hard drive, you can put another Steam Library folder on it, such as "D:\Games \Steam \Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific" or whatever you want to call it, and you will not have the issue of bad mod activations. 2nd of all, which Seawolf mod do you have installed? JHapprich's? You want to make certain the mod you are using is made for v1.5 of the game, if that's what you are using.
