How do you know that?
I have 1.15, not 1.2.0 or even 1.2.5...

I know everything, and the worst thing is that I am always right

I hope UBISOFT can fix the semi transparent conning tower and the blurred shadows

To be honest , I hope the graphics are fixed after certain more important issues.

[ETR3(SS)]

- Fix for CO2 not being saved correctly
- Fix for weather being reset to clear weather after load
- Fixes for crewmen showing under water under certain conditions

Cool, can we gets this for SH4 now too?

- Environmental lighting and effects improvements

Could also include improvements of the horror banding bug which prevents any form of decent modding of the environment. Solving this issue is crucial. I'm afraid the number of bugs and issues is overwhelming the progress which 1.2 will deliver.

Im a little concerned that the list shown in this status update is smaller than the original was.

The original
Fix for CO2 not being saved correctly
•Fix for crew morale.
•Fix for weather being reset to clear weather after load.
•Fixes for crewmen showing under water under certain conditions

•Compass added
•Return to course added
•Several fixes to ship recognition manual

•Shadow optimizations
•Fixed very slow eye light adaptation after a lost device (alt-tab)

•Environmental lighting and effects improvements
•Improvements on particle performance on single core processors
•Fixed torpedo doors
•Fixed torpedo propeller (not turning)
•Fixed electric torpedoes trail
•Fixed spawn radius for some convoys (previously spawned on the shore)
•Fixed several dials that were not working inside the submarine
•Ports in the north Africa in the German territory are under enemy occupation
•South Africa supplies: The existence of another ship that looks identically with the targeted one may generate confusion
•No more crewmen on burning ships
•Fixed a bug where the player can get stuck in the sub's outer hatch geometry
•Crewmen on deck change clothes during bad weather
•German language localization fixes

The one we see now. :

• - Fix for CO2 not being saved correctly
  - Fix for crew morale
  - Fix for weather being reset to clear weather after load
  - Fixes for crewmen showing under water under certain conditions
  - Fixes for ships exploding in ports or hitting the shore
  - Now plot course tool is no longer accessible in the bunker
  - Several fixes to ship recognition manual
  - Man the deck gun / flak gun orders doesn’t cost morale anymore
  - No more crewmembers on burning ships
  - Several crew animation and interaction fixes
  - Fixed some performance problems inside submarine
  - Fixed selection contour being visible when a character was already selected
  - Fixed a bug where the moon was closer than it should
  - Fixed a bug where the sun disk would be visible underneath thick cloud cover
  - Fixed torpedo doors
  - Fixed torpedo propeller not turning
  - Fixed electric torpedoes trail
  - Fixed several dials that were not working inside the submarine
  - Fixed a bug where the player can get stuck in the sub's outer hatch geometry
  - Fixed a problem with magnetic detonators didn't work properly
  - Fixed several localization problems on the German version

Features

• - Compass added to the game interface
  - Return to course order added
  - Depth under keel order added

Improvements

• - Environmental lighting and effects improvements
  - Improvements on particle performance on single core processors
  - All multiplayer maps will display the same map info as the map on the solo campaign

Campaign
- Ports in the North Africa in the German territory are under enemy occupation
- South Africa supplies: The existence of another ship that looks identically with the targeted one may generate confusion
- Fixed spawn radius for some convoys (previously spawned on the shore)

And nothing at all about the map plotting being not saved(in either list) which to me and im sure anyone else is quite important. It's a real pain to have to re-do it all every time you come back to a saved game, cause you then have to first re-aquire the contact and then re-plot his position and course.
And something else that was in the original list called "shadow optimization" which I assume has to do with the shadows showing thru the tower making it ok more like it's fiberglass than steel.
And the morale resetting each time to reload isn't in this newest list either. Thats another biggie.

[java`s revenge]

What about,

* ship`s behaviour?
* speed of merchants
* more surface ships
* save game problems
* other problems after loading of game
* stadimeter problems
* ........etc...etc...

I am disappointed.

[SteelViking]

I am just glad they are doing something about the magnetic detonators. I am sick and tired of firing a torp 0.000001 meters below a ship and it not exploding!

Should have it ready for patch 1.3 .

maybe sooner if I can figure out how to make buttons hide/unhide objects on other pages. (As the Pageattackscope imports the PageTDC into it via scripts - I need to ba able to interact with a control on the TDC page from the Attack Periscope Page).
Once figured out i'm 95% of the way there.

...I live in hope. If not TheDarkWraith has figured out that the Mast Height is not being sent when using the stadimeter - it stays at 20m hence the higher the mast the bigger the error.
But hes working on a fix that the user can imput the mast height manually via a dial. I've done up a dial for him to use in his Notebook part oh his Mod.
So here's hoping his sucessful with that.. If the patch doesn't sort it out.

[robbo180265]

I've said it before and I'm gonna say it again now.

You modders are amazing - we'd be sunk without a trace if you guys weren't about

So it took Ubisoft this long to come up with a patch for many issues that modders fixed within days of release?

Mehnothing special.Still deaf sonar guy,and blind watch crew.
