Does the 16km view look any better with NYGM TW V2 . What i mean is , do the ships get more foggy the further out they are from you .

Observer said

It looks the same as it did in v1.03, but I have some ideas on this

Please run like the wind with this idea as the current 16km view looks sh!t house .

Could someone Please upload the "NYGM Manual" to another mirror?
I'm having problems with this one.

But I want to get drunk right now!

Not that I find anything wrong with NYGM as it is now, but I really can't wait for the added things in 2.0. Anti-humminbird was enough to get my attention, but then the auto-plotting through the Kiel Canal was the icing on the cake!

Plus, I don't think WaWII won't start until NYGM 2.0 comes out. And I really want to kick off WaWII.

The readme states that the Iambecomelife's hospital ship mod must be installed for the Mediterranean to work. Is this mod included in NYGM Tonnage mod v2.0?
I have multiple installs; and I use SH3CMDR with them all. If I add the included SH3CMDR files to my CMDR 2.5, will it then only work with MYGM Tonnage 2.0?

Yes to the first question, and unfortunately, yes to the second, although you can have multiple SH3 Commander installs.

Hi to all, big time thanks for the work and creativity behind the NYGM mod series, thansk for saving SH3 and making it continue to be worth playing and an ongoing challenge.

Now for the problem, I'm sure others have alerted the dev team, but I think they over compensated re the escorts. Now they got ESP, not only do they know when your there, they can see you with X Ray vision, you cant get near the convoys on the surface without being detected. This would be expected from late 43 onwoards, but in 1939, in October, I keep get plastered every time I evn fart near a convoy, going deep and silent doesnt seem to make any difference.

Can the escorts be given less ESP?

Yes. I'm not sure exactly what the settings should be, or where to find them, but if you use any of the big mods from RUB on you'll find them much less capable, at least in the early years. Also, there have been several single mods over the last year to this same effect.

Drebbel,
The links are for the 330+Mb NYGM TW v2.0 which currently does not include the The NYGM IX/1 & IX/3 Tower ‘persiscope’ fix (available here http://www.filefactory.com/?104ae9) or the NYGM Tonnage War v2.0 - U-boat Visual Update (available here http://www.filefactory.com/?1ed0b0)

That is to simulate the real world delay of sound having to travel from where it occured to where you are.

Must admit, I am not a great fan of it, just used to the old way.

When we do the next updat I will get the original files included as an option.

[Ghoost]

Thx for the fast answer hehe

[baxter]

I agree...I replaced the sounds with the original ones.
