Regarding Gammel pic - I too have seen this artifact, is it our vid cards or a settings issue?

Actually what it is, the dude has been tearing his hair out because he hasn't sighted a C3 all week and Herr Kalun is coming down on him hard

I think I saw the same thing tonight down in con, but I was under heavy attack by a few Sunderlands and didn't have time to pay attention to it. Anyway about video card, I'm running a Radeon 9800XT. Don't know anything about it but I imagine it's a clipping issue - from some angles, the head clips thru the hair texture is my guess.

At any rate, my crew can wear their hair any way they want - I spent a LOT of time arguing with my father in the early '70's that it don't matter how long a guy wears his hair as long as it's clean and neat. So I should put my money where my mouth is, my crew can have all the triangles they want as long as they wash it regularly (in bilge water, if need be ) and keep the triangles neatly combed!

Great Clips?

The call for a Barber/Stylist goes out across to the Kriegsmarine for a decent one.....

Running a x800xt PE here...drivers or just an ATi thing maybe?

How about the Nvidia guys (gals too Avon Lady!) any of you getting these "clipped" hairdos?

I'm on A new nVidia card and see it too. I thought it was just their hair being modeled badly and clipping their head. It's anoying but I don't really notice it.

Im not mad after all . hahahahahahahahahaha

I do exactly the same.
When I start a new carrer, I take note of the names of the crew that are going to be in visible "spots" (bridge, control room, hydrophon, radar) and I "select" the crew with a "normal" head.
Then I gave these men priority when I assign a new medal-promotion-qualification, till they do not need to rest anymore, and they can stay at their stations without becoming fatigued.
I make sure, also, to choose different men, just for eyecandy, so when I'm in the conning tower I can see a blond guy, a brown hair one, one with the cap.....so they just don't look all clones .
By the way: as the problem seems to occur only for few crewman, and not all of them, it can't be, in my opinion, a graphic problem related to a particular graphic card.....

The Pascal's mod fix it?

I have an nVIDIA 6600 GT and I also see the polygons through the hair.

Thanks Pascal for the reply.

To don't miss the opportunity: thanks for your great mods!

Rubini.

Would removing the head04 model from the game work? I've thought about trying that but hadn't gotten around to giving it a test.

Are random selections for the crew's heads done at the beginning of each patrol, each time they go on watch or each time a career starts?

Another option might be to delete the head04 model and copy then rename one of the other models to head04.

What a bunch of nitpickers, next thing you'll be checking for dirt under their fingernails.

And probably their toenails also. :rotfl:
