Anyway you have to check with NPS and USCG before hand.

I never saw anything other than fishing boats on my way out of DUT. Flash traffic reported the attack on DUT but I didn't see any IJN TFs. Maybe I wasn't out far enough.

an observation


I get an instant reply from HQ when I do a position report. I could have sworn in the stock game there was a delay in the reply. Is there a way to add a delay of atleast 30min - 1 hour for the reply? That would may it more realistic.

Yep, working the details out, red tape and logistics for the visit, my friend is handling it for most part since his territory up there lol but updates me just about daily. I believe it will be worth it.


May have not been far enough out to locate the carrier force. Tough to find such units at times, esp without radar. In the upcoming version, lookouts have better vision. Tired of crew only being able to see targets at 6 miles when can see a ship and smoke on horizon, masts much further on clear day. Definitely improves things prior to SJ radar

Is this transparency an issue with the mod or SH4 itself?

I've run into this a couple of times. The text "tga shape not found" just below the pointer is the warship. Not sure what tga file it is referencing.






Man your icebergs are giving me fits. I get a radar contact and then crash dive only to find out it is a fracking floating piece of ice.

Yeah... think that would be in the in-game settings, done while in port, before heading out on patrol... of the box being ticked for... 'Volumetric effect" or some such labeling... would be, the last box down near the bottom in the graphics settings panel there.

If, you're still on patrol... best that can be done... is to just deal with it for now.

On doing a R.T.B. ... (Return to base) can then go into settings & untick that box & exit settings and... sally forth from there.

It should overwrite itself in the saves folder, to NOT use that setting after that... without having to nuke the career & have to start fresh... I do believe.

Hope this info, helps...
