Quiet demise

pythos · 04-02-07, 04:29 AM

Have any of you noticed the silence of the water spraying into the control room as your boat dives past safety depth? Or how about the complete lack of any kind of poping, or heavy creaking as the hull gets compressed.

These were things I used in SH3 to warn me that I was doing something wrong with my boat. Sh4 is quite accurate with the lack of colored arcs on the depth gauge, Like the type XXI, for some reason these were ommited from the american and british sub gauges. Seems odd, but it is acurate. Unfortunately this accuracy leads to my not knowing where the heck my poor boat is most likely to pop.

Did something not install right on my installation?

Or do I have to take damage from outside things before this feature is enabled, if present?

you add this to the ever growing list of bugs, its the same for me.. totally amaturish oversights if you ask me.

I dunno. I hear my hull creak and also hear the spraying water.

Me too.

Perhaps the fault is in your set up rather than "totally amaturish oversights" by the Developers?

I hear them alright. No issue here at all with the sounds. Looks like you might have a problem.

I had similar sound issues, barely able to hear crew, no creaks groans of hull ect. Then when trying to tweek my system to run at higher settings I adjusted the power management in Vista to performance from balanced.

The unexpected result included sound improvement. Now all sounds are present and somewhat balanced. Did have to knock the music setting down quite a bit though.
