Who plays SH3 just with Patch 1.4 and no mods

SH3 Commander isn't a mod. It's basically an install program. But it contains mods.

The Newsmod (the SH3 Commander mod you're talking about) is built to work with RUb. RUb is a realism mod. Real U-boats don't have hull integrity percentage gauges, and the only way a real commander would know his hull integrity was when he had his boat repaired in dock - and even then he would not get an exact percentage reading. The disappearing hull integrity gauge is a feature, not a bug.

Again, this is a user-instability issue. Bug reports also arise out of situations like this. The user assumes (wrongly) that a feature that he doesn't like is a bug.
