Disable all the render patches you enabled.

I'm not trying to single you out as an idiot. I'm trying to help you.

The yellow triangles for the map colors are ok. Don't worry about it. Yellow triangle means caution could be a problem. A bomb sign means game will surely crash because not everything the patch requires is enabled (could be it requires patches in other files to be enabled - see the Dependencies= node).

If you want to change map colors double click on the IsColor node (if it says True). That will open a color select window where you can select the color wanted.

The app is a modern windows app that uses context menus. Right click on entries/nodes to see options available. Place mouse cursor over entries/nodes to get tooltip window to show.

Np =)

I got the game to work and it seems like some of the things do what they are supposed to do... however. Still no luck with the torpedo thing.
I realy dont understand what im doing wrong here. My torpedos still miss the target. Fired 4 at a target 800 meters away and all 4 still missed.

Are you doing manual targeting or gamey (easy) targeting? If doing gamey targeting lock onto the contact and then unlock it. Fire torpedoes.

Im doing the easy way.. Yea ok. So first lock, then unlock? Then fire... Gonna try that.

Got to a harbour and got some more problems. Saw a bunch of sitting ducks, Fire and all my torpedos was duds.. Except one that was premature. Not sure wich of the patches i am suppose to remove. But i guess i have to try untill i got the game the way i want it. And another strange thing was when i fire at a destroyer of some kind, he was staning still at 900 meters, the torpedos got the right path, but they just went thru the ship.. Tested diffrent depth from 1-3 meters but they all just went trhu the ship and exploded on the beach (Poor basterd in speedos drinking martinis) ?
