SH4 uboat bugs thread. (Read past the first post before posting replies)

Haha, oh honestly, don't worry. It's always like that with bug threads. In all actuality, despite providing a lot of the reports you see here, I can tell you that the game is maybe 98% good stuff. 1.5 only has a few rough spots that were introduced, but in terms of bugs-per-new-features introduced, it's probably the best new version of an SH game yet :p

Yeah, I have had 5 or 6 trouble free patrols with the grammophone filled up with soundtracks. The only annoying things are not bugs, but stock stuff that modders later made optional, like very fast clouds, very fast smoke, insane amounts of contact and planes, etc, etc. (I get that the two last ones are meant for the more casual players of todays shooter-generation)

I also like that fact that my uboat get access to the more excotic areas of Japan without getting shot to pieces.

Loving this addon!

Now that is cool. I did not think about that when I just took a quick peek a the uboats. I'm guessing someone with a very active imagination could make a great sim with the uboats in the PTO.

I had SH4 running well on my computer. After I uninstalled and reinstalled patched to 1.4 put the new U-boat addon on, I get constant crashes. I have a 4600 + AMD Athlon 64X2 Dual core, 2 gigs memory, 8800 GTX with 169.25 drivers, Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

NVidea Graphics 8800 GT no eyes on the sailors - particularly the deck watch. I also saw some flickering after punching a tanker with a torpedo - that happened once though.

I found out, that many fps-issues can be solved, by simply pausing the game, the hit Alt+Tab, stay at desktop for a few secs, and then maximize SH4 again....issue solved.
I also managed to fix the "missing eyes" thing this way.

NOOOOO!!!!!

I'm experiencing the same missing-eyes-from-the-crew problem too!!!
Today I just decided to download and install the latest drivers (8.3) for my ATI x1950 PRO AGP, as I was still using the old 7.6 drivers.
Never had this problem before.
Will try to go back to 7.6........
