Try transiting 'the Bay' on the surface at 128tc or less and see what happens.

In 1943 aircraft should be all over you.
ahh kapt z you make a really good point, as it happens i run at 4000x compression lol. so you think that has screwed up my game?

But do not forget to clean the registry first, then clean up, delete the SH3 folder from my documents, SH3, and use the disc at the uninstalled

its all good now, the gameplay is back to impossible. got destroyed by two fast mosquitos just outside brest. i tried to take them on because they were so close i had no time to dive. they strafed everyone on the tower and one of there bombs hit my deck. my god they are so fast. wish i could capture video but fraps is not compatible with the resolution fix.

haha yea 4000x i didnt know it harms my game. im doing 128-256 now.

realism used to be 84% now I toned it down to 65%. I like it difficult, I get bored fast if I sink lots of ships. I just restarted the campaign and managed to get out of biscay unharmed but I had to crash dive many times and I took out a b24. waiting for a escort carrier to home in on my radar so i can get my revenge.

Wow, not to often you come across someone who's happy about being destroyed. I think I'll take a screen shot!

I was playing at 1k/2k until I recenty read a thread on here talking about how 128 should be the max , otherwise you will miss out on contacts/aircraft etc

the moment I started at 128 , approaching the english channel from the east , I see a formation of He-111's flying over....what a sight !

halfway thru the channel I was divebombed twice by an Anson , he flew off without even scratching my paintwork

Ive seen lots of aircraft since then too...the game is much more enjoyable a this speed I think
