Maybe, Maybe. This whole thing was a prank to fool me? Why? I like historical accuracy and we shouldn't play around with accuracy like that as a prank, we might hurt somebody or the feelings of someone else or the historical accuracy of the game, or essence of the game, or some vet.

Indeed, i was just being a tad sarcastic. The buckles are the same even in the stock SH4 1.5 so it's something the creators modeled into the game, but for what purpose i have no idea. maybe there is some significance to the crew wareing the Marine Corps belts that we do not know, a piece of history UBI thought to put into the game... or it was just one of the many mistakes UBI's made...

Default Modders to the rescue

This issue was noticed and fixed by more than one modder. The larger mod sets have this and many other little issues fixed.

I noticed the error while playing We Dive at Dawn mod. I don't know why they haven't rectified it.
USMC is not a British service.

I dont mean to be mean, but patchman, this is your 3rd or fourth topic complaining about minor details. I mean, who stairs at a mans lower regions looking for minor graphical flaws in the game?

What? Are you accusing me of being a pervert? This is not about being a pervert. This is about being accurate. There is nothing perverse here anyway, I just noticed it while looking around in the game.

Indeed, Tabby..

Ray; some, yet not all. FOTRS doesn't fix it for being not worthy of work. Most of the crew sits in darker corners anyway so you won't notice, so what the heck.

.o(Should I mention that we usually are on U.S. fleet boats in this game, not the British Navy, or not?)
