I wasn't going to post, as of course I do not have the game, but I saw this cosmetic issue on a thread yesterday and it doesn't seem to have been reported yet. Tied in with the 'ships wakes underwater' issue.

U-boat's shadow does not cast on the bow wave. Looks like it's under the wave.

Crew are using tension speech files (yelling)if sub is damaged even after you have fled from the enemy . Tension files (yelling)should deactivate when a given radius away from the enemy .

The navigator's weather reports are inaccurate in that there was a light fog and no wind he says the weather is improving as I prepare the raid the port at Tyne. Less than an hour later I head to the bridge and the weather has obviously gotten worse fog is now medium and wind is up to 12 m/s. Of course when I ask him he says it is improving again which at this point I guess it couldn't get much worse.

Come to think of it I can't recall him ever saying the weather was getting worse.

Cosmetic:
*when climbing from the conning tower of the 7b to the deck, you fall instead of using the ladder.

*the 7b and 7c towers should be swapped.
these cannot be modded because of GR2 files.

AI Issue/wolfpack:
*The submarine AI needs tweaked. Wolfpacks show up do, but sail too close to the convoys on the surface, become detected, and are either sunk or run away. as far as i can tell, they do not attack the convoy. Additionally, a radio message should be recieved informing you that the wolfpack is forming and heading towards you.

Has The DarkWraith seen this thread? He may have some suggestions.

Bad scripting is SH5 worst bug. So as a start, they need to refresh the team with people who know their job. True story, not a wish list.

Better don't answer if you were thinking about the lame teleportation system from any previous SH series. It's SH, not Star Trek sim.

My point was that I don't like the fact that you have to go down the ladder into the Conn to order a Dive. I am not interested in teleporting.

John, you and Takeda can pluck out what you think is legitimate from the whole Thread and consolidate a list for Post #1.

John Channing · 07-14-10, 11:25 AM

Or people could save us a whole lot of unpaid labour by just reading the first posts!

If they fixed everything on the first post , that would be an incredible step forward .

PL_Andrev · 07-15-10, 09:33 AM

Some graphic and other issues:

Incorrect angle of moon view. (Now the moon view suggests that the sun is over horizon),
Only white light inside uboat. No red (alarm) / blue (emergency) light existed in "Das Boot",
Explosions looks like bitmaps (no 3D) - explosion clouds is the same from side and from downhill. It is OK but how to edit it?
Explosions looks like "mushrooms, explosion clouds", how to add other kinds? I think about high explosions like HMS Barkham, or tanker's explosion from "Das Boot".
No captain person on the conning tower if player is on the conning tower and use external camera (he may look like the captain from the training mission),
No other crew on other submarines/uboats (they may look like usual uboat crew),
The range of DD's passive sonar (orange eye on map) should depend not only from uboat speed but from DD speed, uboat depth, DD experience,
Possible turn on electric engines on surface,
More requests to base (refuel on see, fire support, protection when return to port),
Possible hitting (and take damages) to sea bottom / rocks and generate a noise,

Good luck with that John

Seriously though, I am very excited that Dan (elanaiba), leader of The Devs, is watching this thread. Over the last few months I really got the impression that the SH5 1.2 was the final chapter in the Silent Hunter saga. I love this series and would hate to see it die.
