Hi!
One question to the NYGM Kaleuns: What experiences did you make with ASDIC in shallow water? Had the DD´s lost contact? Was/is it possible to evade? And beyond, did you have the feeling that it´s useful to show your narrow site to the enemy? Some reports would be really appreciated. Thank you in advance. Leitender |

Hi all:
First of all, very great mod! Now my lil problem: Playing a career, i got detected by a destroyer and tried to escape. But unfortunately, he depth charged me and my submarine got damanged with flooding. The problem came because in the management screen, at the repair screen, i couldnt select the section of my submarine that was flooding, clicking and clicking and clicking, but keeping unselected, and...well, you know what happens when you dont repair a flooding. Actually, i can only select the conning tower sections, the aft room and the upp room in the repair screen, but the rest of sections cannot be selected. Happens the same with the down-right side icons (where to send your crew to repair, cruise mode, attack mode...), they cannot be clicked correctly. Any solution to this issue? Thank you! PD: Nevermind. Reading the manuals inside the mod, there is a section which tell you that there is no "damage team" and you must put all your men in the damanged compartiments and pray for them to be quickly repairing... XD Last edited by Demoman; 02-23-14 at 07:17 PM. |

Do you have NYGM updated to 3.6D? And are you using h.sie's and Stiebler's patches? EDIT 2.24: Demoman, I apologize. What I wrote above is entirely INCORRECT. Your post is correct. I have been bouncing between GWX and NYGM and got the damage control procedures mixed up. Please excuse my advancing senility! Last edited by BigWalleye; 02-24-14 at 04:09 PM. |

Edit: Disregard my questions. My praise still stands though!!
So I've made the switch from GWX and have been supremely impressed thus far. Lots of great work put into this mod and I'm loving it. T Last edited by Tupolev; 03-06-14 at 04:28 PM. |

I'm with you on that. I don't see the attraction of GWX. Almost every time I see someone having problems with this, or that, it's GWX. They show a mod list with about 30 mods. To be the so-called 'best mod', you sure have to add a lot of other mods to improve it. I love NYGM. The only thing I would like to see changed would be to add the Wilhelmshaven from WAC to it.

But yeah, I personally also tend to favour NYGM's flavour, though I use GWX for some Mediterranean/Black Sea/Indian Ocean patrols sometimes. The content added there is unsurpassing, and since I almost only add my own GUI I don't have any problems.

I spent about 2 years playing GWX. I quickly realized i was spending more time trying to get my mod soup to play nice than actually patrolling. Then I streamlined my setup and enjoyed the game play. I definitely love the amount of content.
I'm currently running a VII and IX career with NYGM and I'm loving it. The feel of the game play is outstanding. Cheers to the team and thank you for the hours of gametime to come! Huge fan of the GUI, Hitman. My thanks to you as well! T |

Hello. I'm still playing GWX 3.0 and need something fresh.
Please tell me why NYGM is better than GWX ? All the advantages... Is it possible to run NYGM in widescreen mode 16:9 ? Maybe it's time to change and try something new ? |

It's difficult now to differentiate amongst the MODs as they've mostly incorporated each others ideas. NYGM has always been geared for 'realism' over 'visual arts'. I never ventured out of the NYGM compound so cannot give a true perspective, but I've always been happy with NYGM... it's a challenge. Quote:

Thank you very much for all the compliments, gentlemen above.
I like NYGM too! Stiebler.

Just my two cents worth, but I find GWX a little “brighter” in atmosphere, a little more fun. NYGM seems more serious. In GWX, I go out to bag some tonnage, to test my skills. In NYGM, I go out to survive! In GWX, I can enjoy the graphics, the sound, the built-in gee-whiz toys. In NYGM, I’m there to fight. In GWX, if I’m canny and lucky, I just might survive the war. In NYGM, I know the odds are stacked way, way against me and there will be no nach dem krieg.
Both games are good and pretty realistic. But IMO, GWX leans just that little bit toward shoot-em-up, toward personal score and an enjoyable experience. NYGM leans more toward grim reality. But I’m a reality freak. I prefer NYGM. To me, it just feels the way I think it should. I still play GWX from time to time. But NYGM is my favorite. YMMV. |

As I said in my previous post, the fun for me is when I'm being hunted and trying to sneak away.
