[REL] OLC Ubermod v2.4.3 for GWX 2.1 - Page 33

Captain von Keldunk · 05-04-08, 04:20 AM

Hello

Hello,
my god, version 2.02 after the final version 1.8 a few days ago

.

Meanwhile I'm quite good in using the new stadimeter and the "ring" system - seems my targeting is more precise than with the original tools for manual targeting (with the notepad). Still have to look at the attack disk -

I find the colours, along with the new reduced enemy's potential of spotting the boat, an excellent enhancement to GWX 2.01. This way the U-boat gets back its vital advantage at night for surface attacks, being almost invisible - detection still is a bit too easy for the escorts i think, but i like the challenge. I have tested this only in single missions for now, but it works a treat. Now those surface attacks going in like a PT-boat is what the U-boats were really doing to achieve the tonnage numbers in the beginning of the war.

Concerning the wave colours i have to say this is the closest thing to reality i have yet seen in a sim, including SH IV. I have been doing a lot of real sailing in the Baltic sea as well as in the North sea, and OLCE has that real touch that was somehow not quite right before. Only thing is I have not yet seen the OLCE sea colours in a storm yet ...

Thanks a lot for this mod, and greetings,
Catfish

Your work is SuperB!!! Can't thank you enuf.

Many many hrs of effort, (and beer) to get this mod perfected for us. Thank you again. I will enjoy this like a fine cabernet.

It`s so unrealistic. With the gwx water i often had the feeling that
i was real at sea.

If i want to have the gwx water back what do i have to do?

Open JSGME, click on the whatever parts of the OLC Ubermod you've installed, and press the button that looks like this: <

It looks very nice in my humble opinion. :hmm:

@ OLC : By the way, if you plan on improving the real looking of the underwater view, do not forget to watch (2:18), found in this thread.

Thanks guys. Alex, I'll take a look, thanks.

Great mod! No need to go back to SH4 now with SH3 looking so good now!

Quick question. Can you use crew and boat skins with your mod? Got an overwrite warning when I went to activate so I didnt.

Also do Intergrated Orders work if you are using the OLCE2 and the regular/stock GUI? Noticed it said it was not compatible but I figured that was only if you had the OLC GUI installed. :hmm:

Anyway thanks again. Very nice work

Mod compatibility notes on post #1 have been updated.

Great job with "the mod". I do enjoy testing it. So far, no serious problems. Keep up the good work.

Einsman · 05-05-08, 07:13 AM

As Klaus said in post 481...

Definitely I like your mod, thank you!

onelifecrisis · 05-05-08, 07:21 AM

Changes in this version:

Further, minor tweaks to the crew face/hand brightness problem.
Removed the water stream mod (OLCE2 is still compatible with it, provided the water stream mod is enabled first).

Very cool.

Good luck !

gord96 · 05-05-08, 08:35 AM

Thanks OLC!

Two more quick questions;

I looked around and could not find any info on what the RealWeatherFix mod does. Any info?

Also is there a reason you removed the water stream mod from your latest version? I like it alot and just want to make sure it isnt causing any problems.

Thanks again for this great mod!

I'm afraid so. In addition to some fuel problems (which are not a big issue IMO, but they're there) the mod also stabilises the deck gun, effectively reversing the excellent LRG mechanics (for the U-boats) in GWX. Whether or not that's a big issue is up to the player. OLCE2 remains compatible with the Water Stream mod.

gord96 · 05-05-08, 09:16 AM

gotcha. i play in type II boats only so the deck gun isn't an issue. i guess that means I will keep the mod on

thanks again

I like the water streams alot and I find existing deck gunnary with 15secs reload time fine for my needs. I always let the crew fire it anyway so i'm happy to carry on using the Water Streams.

But thanks for the new release all the same.
