Patch 1.1 Observations/Improvements/Bugs

DJSatane · 03-22-07, 10:37 AM

I bet the patch doesnt patch every file when it finds some cfg is "changed" since you played the game lol. But that's just my guess.

I was just introduced to the "Death camera" after having a bomber drop out of the clouds and smack me right square on my conning tower, camera spinned around a bit and then watched my boat plummet to the bottom. Afterwards there was a screen informing me that i have destroyed a ship of high importance to the US and that i was being escorted to the brig until the end of the war (thought i was dead?

) However, havn't noticed any 2d crew members my radar doesn't seem to be picking up everything around me in 1941 and my stadimeter works

I'm happy with the patch.

BTW. first post

Any other place than FileFront to D/L?
Seems to keep taking me to some sort of Terms Of Agreement screen and when I except...I am then at some Hosted file management screen ?

Hackett, just run the UpgradeLauncher.exe in the SH4 program group.

regarding Filefront:
I am having the same issue as described above [by Hackett] when trying to download the patch from Filefront. Interestingly, if you do a search for the Silent Hunter series, and wind your way into the actual location of the storage of the patch at Filefront's servers [follow silent hunter --> silent hunter 4 --> downloads --> patches]
then you find that the patch has been "locked for administration purposes" and that it is 0 KB in size.

I got the exact same mission ending after sinking for no reason at all. Well, I suppose I might have been bombed, I was at periscope depth off the japanese coast. Don't think I managed to destroy any allied shipping, though. And even if I did, why bother dragging my corpse from its watery grave to a court-martial?

You're actually dead and stuck in pugatory. New feature, didn't you know?

I hope they fix the chronometer. It'll be a pain having to buy my own and calculate speed.

The chronometer works perfectly well - what is broken is the ability to magically calculate speed just by starting and stopping the timer.

So no need to buy a stopwatch you can use the in-game one, you might need a calculator though
