What year of the war are you in? Before or after the summer of 1940?

In the early part of the war, Torpedo failures are simulated by running deep. This get better as the war moves on.

This simulates the failures in early war. You can cheat that with Hsie patch, disable the torpedo fix option.

If I'm not mistaken the Torp depth relied on a 'reference pressure sensor' and a 'current depth pressure sensor'.

The reference pressure sensor would be effected by the heat build up in the sub (when submerged), resulting in a higher reference pressure, which translates to a deeper reference pressure.

So off the Torpedo goes running at deeper depths.

A way to get around this, but works only in calm seas, is to set running depth to minimum depth, or shallower depth but then you run the risk of the torpedo hitting the surface.

About running deep torpedo & duds, I have already set Hsie ini to minimum chance to get it… but as Hsie probability fix is adding to stock SH3 probability duds, it can gives sometimes lots of bad torpedoes …

Deactivating Hsie torpedo fix will let stock SH3 duds active. Still some bad torpedoes will happen.

Deactivating Hsie torpedo fix + SH3 dud torpedoes option will give always good torpedoes (but not realistic).

Running deep torpedoes are increased when bad weather and more than 10 m/s waves. Knowing it, avoiding launching torpedoes by 15 m/s is a good idea

Hey Master,
I confirm what you've said... don't pick fights in bad weather...
Several times I've had to give up... and wait for the right moment... I even sometimes lose track of some people in very bad weather.
That's what I like about this NYGM and many other things...
The tonnage must be difficult, no success "free" at all, which is very good

Not on holidays, still working hard on next update (early July)

Many things have been adjusted and/or corrected.
New cool stuff, and big revision of RND campaign file actually … correcting and adjusting spawning intervals as well as percentages (was never been done).
Also many traffic paths have been adjusted up to Narvik harbor (they used to stop before)…

Hi all! I just installed this great looking modded SH3, Clean install, all leftovers from the document folder are deleted. Career loads up fine, in Wilhelmshaven. After a couple of mins i switched to the navmap and zoom out a bit. Without warning I get a CTD.

Any idea what is wrong?
Intell I7-13700K
RTX 3070
32GB mem

Thanks

Hi,
Don’t know why you CTD when zooming out … first time I hear that.
Sorry but can’t help you on that issue, probably coming from your machine who don’t like something somewhere…
Computers can become sensitive sometimes, maybe when something else is running in background.

Sorry for the late reply. It made a mistake with borderless windows. I solved it by disable that program.

Default Type XXIII campaign

Hi, FIFI,

I tried the 1945 Type XXIII campaign with version 7.8, but everytime I load the game, I get a CTD. I even tried to re-unpack your mod and restart fresh, but it doesn't work.

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[C:\NYGM ENHANCED STEEL COFFIN EDITION V7.8\MODS]

Yes I’m aware… it will be fixed next update (July)
