thx and Gute Jagd!

Hi!

A very long time ago there was a "vulnerability" mod, created by "Augie" and updated by "Nemesis," that highlighted the locations of ammo magazines, fuel, engines, keel, etc., for you in the recognition manual displays for stock Silent Hunter III. IIRC it was on Terrapin's UBRS site, but the site is gone so I'm not sure where you would find it. I don't think anyone ever extended it for the ships included and/or modified in GWX.

Stock and GWX . Less than 1000m target distance more then 45 degrees. Open your recognition manual and you´ll see them.

thank you for the answer. what do you mean with more then 45 degrees? should i see it when i am at 90 degrees to target at a distance of under 1000m? and does it show up on manual targetting or automatic?

thx for the help

I think it´s AOB between 45 and 120 degrees and yes, under 1000m. Do not know if manuel targetting or only in automatic. Just try it in the Submarine school.

It shows : Engineroom, Fuelbunkers, Keel, Ammobunkers (if there) and Screw or..äh...pro..prä...Propulsion ( damn...do not know the word in english )

i tried it in sub school. and in a normal mission. it does not work. it must be in stock sh3. i seen it in the tutorial video that you can watch when you do the marine school. so either a later patch or gxw 2.1 disabled it. thx anyways!

As far as i remember previous threads on this topic, the weak spot highlight feature is disabled in GWX extension, at least since GWX 2.0 (don't know about earlier releases though)
