Which Version Am I Running?

Kaptlt.Endrass · 01-30-15, 08:55 PM

I feel as if this is an obvious answer, but can't tell. I had to wipe my hard drive because of a virus and am back to the stock game. When I'm looking through the info, all I see is 1.4. Where do I find the specific version I'm running?

Also, an annoying bug with the ship camera. When I use it in harbor or at sea, it will work fine. However, say I pay a visit to an enemy port, from the time I get in range through the remaining patrol, the camera REFUSES to focus on my sub, a ship, or aircraft, instead giving crazy angles from underwater or glitched out images. I'm also unable to free-roam to the radio/sonar room from the conn anymore. Ideas?

Lower right corner of main screen will say what version you are running.

That depends on the fortifications - the land bunkers, which are of type 403 and/or 404. Large super-mods changed the unit type to 408 (environment) - and the bunker will not disturb he extenal camera anymore.

I don't know if this will help much, but for me, I've noticed that in the stock game, the external camera goes out to about 20Km. If you try to take the exterior view farther than that, it causes weird visual artifacts, usually corrected by saving, quitting, and reloading.
I appreciate all the work modders have made to improve the game, but for me, it is just a game (so I have to keep reminding myself) and I can work around the errors in the stock version.
