If it hadn't been for the floating smokestack, that would have been a real photo to me

I assume that pic is from "The Museum"....I am unable to access the Museum at all, glitches or otherwise. As it begins to load, it causes a CTD. ALL other aspects of SH4 work perfectly.
Any ideas? NSM3.3+RSRD+all ROW mods....at 1920X1200.

sea triales
Moin Moin Kaleuns
Does anyone know the crush depth of the Balao-class-submarine?:hmm: I have the trigger-maru-mod on my SH IV. Yesterday, after 3 houres of depthcharging I got destoyed from two destroyers. That was a realy ugly time, I had. Because of damage I got prevously, I was limmited to aprox. 250 ft diving depth. I just coulnt get away. After this I went to a new campaign. I got a new construction out fo Mare Island, Cal. My first mission was to get to sea trials to test my new Balao-class-sub. First thing was a shallow dive test with some manövering and exercises to pull the crew together. We did some crush-dive-manoevers and some depthchanging exercises. Than we surfaced and got new orders, to proseed to a new pos. to do a deep-dive-test. We got there and prepared to dive, when there came new info for the deep-dive-test. We should go to test depth, and then go deeper. I was told that the first signs of to much stress to the pressure hull would show in the connig tower. So we dived and went to test depth, to 400 ft. Then we got deeper. At 450 ft the depthmeter was at the max, so I had to do it with the diveplanes. We went deeper 10 ft for 10 ft, to 500 ft, then to 550 ft, and to 600 ft. At 597 ft someone warnt me, “We are to deep”, but I couldn’t make out any signs of the sayed “to much stress to the pessure hull” in the conning tower, so we went deeper. By now the sub was, throuh the pressure of the water so heavy, that we couldn’t maintain depth with diveplanes at rise on the max and ahead 1/3 on the engines. We had to use ahead standard, to maintain depth. But because we were to go deeper still, we did it with ahead 1/3. The sub drew deeper at a speed of aprox. 8 ft/min. We reaged 610 ft, than 620 ft and so on. The sounds of the creacks of the pressure hull got louder and more frequently. But we went deeper still, untill evetualy at 661 ft the lights begunn to flicker, and I new this was the beginning of the end. So I hit the emergncy surface button and got the engines to flank. We reaged 11 knotes during the emergency surfacing manöver. As we surfaced, we got new ordes to intercept a destroyer to test my abillety to track any targets that could reach me through mail. After this test we finished ouer first day of triales and went to port for the night. We reached the habour at 10:30 pm an went strait to bed. Tomorrow more of my seatriales if there is any interest.

USS Balao in silent running...approaching a small convoy...
Six torpedoes in the water....two per ship... These two exploded simultaneously... And these two left torpedo tubes 5 and 6 few moments ago...Men are just counting the seconds... We looked through the periscope and saw three medium cargos in flames...one already going down... It was a real must to try get rid of at least one of those...unfortunately the last torpedo missed,but the first two did find the victim... All men standing on the aft died instantly... When the crew on another destroyer saw what happend,they increased the speed immediately to ged rid of the torpedoes coming from the left... They were trying to find us,but...we were already some 1.5 mile away from them in silent running,leaving the area with four ships on the bottom...another succes on the score list of USS Balao...all men were working on 110%...Captain thanked them personally... Next day two planes appeared,approaching quickly...Only Warder,Gallagher and Murphy know the best their jobs...
