In the very beginning, I first didn't realized that W_clear was Chinese and had a big barrier language problem.

But since I have realized that, because some of you tell it to me, trust me, I tried all my best to communicate, even using pictogram.

No sorry, I won't do that, EXCEPT IF W_CLEAR GIVE ME THE AUTHORIZATION TO DO IT. The reason is, W_clear HAD MY MOD ALREADY. So he was already able to study it and finally, REFUSED TO ADOPT IT AND TO COLLABORATE WITH ME on furthers ehancement (building a new Temperate_A). Therefore, I am not going now to FORCE him in any direction. It is HIS mod, and he do what he want with it, I have no other way than to fully respect that.

Again, it is your turn to convince him. My offer still stand.

I'm guessing that the problem is that one of the biggest problems with his mod was with the climate zones and now its working without crashing. Crashing is probably his biggest concern and he's being asked to change something that's working even though not 100% accurate. He's looking toward the mega mod which includes his and wants it running smoothly. Just my guess though.

Just wondering if it could be this mod. When my deckgun rounds hit the target at night, the graphic looks like it is surrounded by a box . . . almost as if I were seeing the part of the graphic that is supposed to be transparent but is NOT.

C:\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\Environment 4.5 MOD\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\expl_hallo.dds
&
C:\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\Environment 4.5 MOD\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\expl_hallo_add.dds

That got rid of the artifact but left everything else intact.

I hope this helps.

Well, I did something similar when I took Reaper's ERM and worked out a mod that can help on the broken stadimeter those who dont use TDW UI or any other automation mod. Is true, he gave me the approval to develop further his mod, but looking at the first post on this thread.. I see no copyright notice.

So I assume is no problem in helping this mod to be a better one. We are gentlemens here and we dont steal each others work, not to mention that all the moders do here, is strictly in the benefit of the community/SH fans. If is any copyright mark on any mod, is actually against the commercial use of the mod.

Bottomline.. dont try to learn chinese, dont argue with W_Clear.. do what you think is needed to do to improve this great mod and let use enjoy it.

Work on it as an enhancement dude, people can choose themselves whether or not to load it then. Its not unlike other mods which rely on or enhances say TDWs UI mod for their own work, its all good.

玩家有多少机会跑遍世界各地，每次巡逻仅仅在一个很小的海域，这样玩家如何能感受到不同海水，真实有什么用 。How many players the opportunity traveled all over the world, each patrol only in a small area, so that players can feel how different the sea, what is the real use.

My answer is again, look at this picture:




I can add the following:

WHO CAN THE MUCH CAN THE LESS.

If you, W_clear, you plan to never navigate down to South-Africa, or somewhere to South America, etc... It does not mean that nobody will do it. If you, W_clear, don't care about the quality of the map ClimateZone.tga, it does not mean everybody don't care.

I would understand your position if we were all asking to you to build a new map, somethings you may not want to do, because of the time & work required.

BUT ACSOFT & ASTRADEUS OFFER THIS TO YOU AS A GIFT !!!

JUST ACCEPT THIS GIFT !!!

Hi...

This is screen from Trevallys tutorial (in my JSGME list on the bottom).
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...6&postcount=19
She gets two torps. Nice fire... get slow down. I`m not sure so I surfaced my U and shot from deck gun (by the way - veeery fast - too fast? 1 shot per 2-3 seconds?) to finish her course. Blow up and... I noticed this red line, not exactly on the horizon...



Any idea what happened

XP Pro SP3, Geil 2x1GB Ultra Low Latency 800Mhz, HD4850 512MB Asus Top, Intel E2160 overlocked to 2.79Ghz

This mod in your list will send up a red flare from a sinking ship.
The red mark on the sea is the glow from that flare

Red flare... is it means: S.O.S. I`m sinking like Titanic? I sunk some ships in this war... game so I missed this small signal...
Thank you

Hi Clear,

Thats a great shot.....but I got a couple of questions for you.

What mods have you got installed there to get those graphics?

and

I see on your boat the DF aerial is raised....is that on a mod or can you do that from an in game command?
