Does anyone encounter the screen flashing? My game screen suddenly begin to rapidly flashing with black a few days ago and it was so annoying
The flashing part is usually the water surface, half of it near by the horizon...

We'll have to wait for someone to come along that is more familiar with the graphics set-up for the game, but in the meantime, what video card are you using? What is the "native" resolution of your monitors? What is Windows set to display? What is the game set to display?

I've never seen screen flashing on my semi-ancient GTS 250 video card.

Hmm & opps
no effects from me either... See my specs below.
========================================== On another note: December 8th 1941. S-class leaving Manilla. Never made it out of the harbor So concerned with the air traffic, i collided with the incoming quays. Holy-cow what a sight, bettys everywhere, sky was thick with flak and tracers.. Strangely tho, the japs just did a formation flyby. And as i was sinking, a second formation arrived

If memory serves correctly, Pb has already given me a previous court Marshall, hmm something to-do with colliding with a ship at pearl, and crash diving with all hatches open.
Time to hide.

DirectX 12 comes with Windows 10, but a little known fact is DirectX 12 does not support legacy versions of DirectX. SH4 requires the older DirectX 9.0c version. Without it, all kinds of video issues can arise. On the games original install wizard (when using the original game disk to install) you're asked if you wish to add DirectX 9.0c to your computer. A player should always do this. If you've installed from some other source, like a Steam Download, I have no idea if you were asked to add DirectX 9.0c or not? Microsoft has provided a way of checking/updating your DirectX build to provide the older versions drivers. I outline this in Windows10; Large Address Aware; SH4 Install, found on this SubSim's Forum page. A direct link to my specific page regarding the Microsoft "DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer" is HERE. I would follow the instructions found there to have DirectX run as it should. I don't know if this will correct your issue, but its defiantly something everyone needs to be aware of and correct when using DirectX 12.

I just received an aviator-rescue mission at the SLOT (New Georgia Sound). I arrived the designated area in time and started a patrol for couple of days, one night my radar suddenly began to pick up large number of aircraft around me on the screen, which was possibly a dogfight. After a while, some 'stationary' map contacts began show up (I have disabled the map contact update so they should be radio contacts) scattered in a wide area:
I guessed they were drowned pilots, so I rush to those contacts with ahead flank immediately. Unfortunately I've checked every contact but nothing was found... Did they all drowned before I arrive? I think it's possible because it was a 15-meter/s-wind night

It is a possibility that they all "drowned". It could also be the they drifted much faster, due to the winds. I have had similar happen, though I got two out of a bunch one night, but I don't think I had 15 knot winds. Yikes! Did not get a completed mission. If you go to decks awash and ahead 1/3, you can use sonar to help in finding them also. It looks like you had the mission that specifically mentions being off Guadalcanal by the 9th of October? or you might have had the general "Solomons" for the 5th of December? The pilots will be surrounded by a bright pink "halo" about them, to mark them visually for you, which under normal circumstances can be seen a long way off, but typhoon weather? sheesh, who knows? I put some Japanese pilots in the water in a few of those missions, hoping to be able to "rescue" some of them to be used for their intel, however, the game doesn't do that...

No... that doesn't sound right, that you were attacked by planes at night... It shows 00:28 hours on your boat clock, and there shouldn't be any enemy planes... The 5th of December mission is still in stock FotRS trim, and that is one of the problems, in that the "trip" goes off whether you're early, late, or on time. The game does not have a way to regulate that portion of the game very well. The game doesn't really know how to keep time in a human manageable way, and only counts up to 99,999 minutes anyway (not quite 70 days). For most circumstances, that's fine. However...
Do you have any other mods installed? Are you playing from a Saved game? |
