Probably a tga setting to adjust
Maybe its the water reflections that you added in the .dat files for the MFM ships because I don't have that issue using the original MFM ship files.

Default Status Report from U-20

Been playing a Black Sea patrol for about 6 hours. I tested and cycled through the ships in Constanza several times from 5km's out of port and did NOT have any issues. All was good here. Now like a good sailor, I'm headed up to the local watering hole in my neighborhood. Great job Fifi ! Oh and this was the latest version from October 14, 2022

I will compare a stock MFM ship to mine… but water reflection should be ship reflection on the water only… not light reflection on the ship

See the difference with correct tga setting...

Before (actual settings):



After correction:



Nothing to do with water reflection
Furthermore, the light is enforced by my NYGM environment global light (hence the effect more noticeable)
I will re work all MFM ships tgas...for next update

ÉDIT: not only MFM need adjustments … few others too! Like the NKLS…way too bright at night.

Great discovery, Fifi....
However, until next release, it's something barely noticeable, so it won't affect the game. Thanks a lot again!

Ok, tomorrow will be next update

I have revised all ships tgas, and have harmonized all of them to NYGM standards (mainly for NYGM environment).
No more hulls shining in night time
I have also adjusted some … and by deleting a useless embedded tga (replaced by only one in texture folder) for all MFM ships, I gained lot of weight.

This next update will not require a new career. Only to be in bunker for installation

What a luck that we live in the time of the flatrate, when we all see your rhythm and speed of updates.

Thank you Fifi... my health allows me today to come and see you... in order to enjoy your work...
For me it all works...
Atlantic Sea.. Mediterranean Sea. Black Sea...

My most sincere friendships Kal Maximus U699

Hey Fifi, all works great here, no issues. I have a new Atlantic patrol on one computer and my old Black Sea patrol on the other.
