Default HELP ME! Problem that is frustrating as hell.

Hi guys.

I have a problem that is replicated on 2 vastly different systems.

No mods installed, both installed off CD/DVD both have U-boat expansion.

Right to the problem, the boat (either American or German) will start to randomly dive and surface in a pattern. Up/down/up/down... etc. It just keeps going on and on.

I have reinstalled the game twice and same problem occurs.

Gotta say it's really annoying when you are trying to use the deck gun.

So if someone can help me out I would really appreciate it.

Cheers

I've never heard of anything like that.

Certainly is strange.

Armistead will be around. He'll know or he'll know somebody who does.

What kind of seas do have when it starts that? In rought seas, the boat will seem to surface and dive. When it does that, does it go down deep enough so that it is actually submerged such as periscope depth?

It can happen in rough seas but when I say it dives I mean it dives. 100m-0-100m again. It can also happen in calm water too.

Kinda frustrating.

Did you perhaps press the crash-dive button and then aborted/set another depth level before you got to crashdepth level?
