Dark waters seems interesting even if i wanted to go for the americanos instead of the classic german...

Anyway, one question about DW mod.

Is there VESSELS ?!

Or should i patrol for 6hoo and more before finding any target ?
not sure what you mean exactly.
DW is meant to be played on the German side.
if you play American, it will be SH4-Stock.
none of the mods affect the American submarines.
if you are also referring to a lack of targets, there is an unexpected feature in SH4 that seems to dry up targets at the date-cusp of the traffic generators.
what is the date you are on patrol and in what area are you patrolling?

So >> unistalled.

you're so cute with your responses.
one thing to keep in mind when you post here, whining about something that doesn't work the way you expect it to, is not the most effective way to convince someone to help you.

KM +1

Have to agree fully with KM there. Have read your posts & at 1st was going to see of assisting you, but with the last few you've posted.. I am of the opinion of why waste My time in doing so. Especially seeing the disrespect you have shown to date.

Have to say that your last 4 posts, I believe (maybe 5, but hey.. who's counting here, right. ) your actions are liken to those a petulant 2 year old child, at best description.

Acting like a spoiled kid who gets upset at NOT getting their way, grabbing the ball (pick any sport here that has a ball used) & huff stomping off home.

At this point, have fun being ignored, until you start showing some better manners.. if you ever do so.

M. M.

Ahoy,

Just wondering if there is an optimal time compression for finding ships and aeroplanes?

I go around at around 1,000, or 1500x TC and I find that even in 1943 I am crossing the Bay of Biscay and barely getting attacked by allied aircraft! Would going around at 256x get me attacked more ( I love playing on 100 realism and getting jumped by Coastal Command over and over like the real U Boat Captains would have) and allow me to find more ships (so that I can finally get my tonnage over 50,000 for a career!)?

Thank you all

Default Dark Waters, submarine school, Ghost convoy...

As I wrote extensively in section

Silent Hunter 4: Wolves of the Pacific

I posted a story thread called: Dark Waters, submarine school torpedo lessons... / post no. 8,

I'm having trouble staying on the attack map I can see the convoy moving, but through the periscope and surfaced, no ship, no convoy.

Please, read my story in the post I mentioned. Mad Mardigan referred me to this section because MM doesn't know a solution and there may be others here who can help me.

Are you using Time Compression at the time of the "report" of a convoy? What level of zoom are you using also? If you are not close enough in distance, and are zoomed out a bit, it can look like a convoy is going over the top of your boat, when in actuality, it is 25nm away or more, beyond sonar range even. If the Time Compression is too high, by the time you drop back down to 1x, the convoy might be well-past your position, espeically if there is a "stutter" from the game - which usually signifies a "spawn" of 3D objects nearby.
