Hi Fifi
Thank you for the wonderful work you are doing.
Never dreamed I would be playing German SH4 with your exceptional work.

Enabled update 5 replacing 4B.

Is it me, or is some of the incidental language in the far background that happens when no orders are being given no longer in German?
It is catching my attention which is not something I have noticed in previous updates just seems to be different for some reason to me in Update 5?

Chief is confirming the orders correctly loud and clear and moving his hands in the correct gestures for the telegraph although the handle is still static as before and does not move.

If i had to choose, i’ll Let it that way
That is OK and good also. However, since the Type IID starting for the Baltic is in its own Flotilla, I can change the spawn location, so that little file I sent you has a spawn spot out in the Baltic, but that only affects that one flotilla.

So you are saying that it is possible to bring back the performance similar to beginning?

Not long if all goes well...
I have done all type II, and VIIB1 & B2 already.
Give me a couple of days, and it should be fine for an Update 5B

I'm very satisfied with the new U-Boats rendering using The Unified Render Controller
Had to delete and change many things, but that was really worth it.
Lighter files, very fluent game with full FPS in any situation, that's paradise!

All U-Boats are done now, and the Update 5B will be ready tomorrow morning (France time)

It gives a kind of wet metallic looking on the U-Boat surfaces, depending how high is the sun light and if clouds or not. Kind of SH5 looking
This rendering may slightly differt, depending the sub type.

Few pictures, here full 60 FPS (can't have more with my PC settings) riding the VIIB1/B2:









And the IXA from above; all details are much better looking!



Hope you'll like it

UPDATE 5B IS OUT!!
(See end of post #1)

Important update as this one should solve performance hit!

- Type II chief officer has been moved to handle correctly the telegraph
- Type II Baltic career is now spawning right side of Denmark even when starting at sea
- All U-Boats types have been adapted for the Unified Render Controller that is saving performance (except type XXIII wich is still stock OM)
- Adjustment of some water particules

Let me know if your performance hit has been solved ... and how you like the new rendering
