Wrong slope direction

Pascal · 08-22-05, 05:20 PM

If i take as reference position inside the sub the radio room (in front one) when the sub dives, we can see inside the sub in 3 D the sub goes in the wrong direction. The slope direction is wrong.

I'm not so surprise, one more time, to see that from a game done by the Ubibugs company.

So, no way to change that, i suppose ???

Thank you

..; No way to reverse the slope direction. Perhaps yes, by one of the talents ingenier we have there ...

It turns out that when you look the other direction in the U-boat, that the slope is correct.
As it turns out, when you dive, the viewpoint of the "camera" will tilt in one direction. So, when you look to the port side and you look to the starboard side, the slope angle of the boat will seem to reverse itself, one being correct and the other being wrong.
Also, sometimes no tilt at all is noticable, in my experience.

The tilt angle is big in crash dive, and when the slope is wrong, i'm feel like in the movie with Jerry Lewis or Laurel & Hardy.....

Lauruurelll, you are going in the wrong directionnnn ....

Something i realised last night myself.

I was diving down to 90, and looking at the navagator it was pointing downwards, which was correct.

But if i spun around to the helm, it was pointing downwards in the other direction. Really puts me off.

Its like the game is set to make you feel you are sloping either up or down to the right of you, no matter what side of the ship your looking at.

Surly its a small thing they can fix in the patch.

If that can be fixed, it will be great, because once you see that 3 D error, after you only see that each time you dive or goes in surface, and the game becomes funny (and i dont think it's the right objectif ..)

But, it is perhaps also a bad conception of the 3 D engine and cannot be modified.

Most likely take more effort to fix than it's worth, besides last i heard theres no more patches.

I never can keep track of which way is fore and aft when I'm inside the boat anyways, so it never bothered me. :P
Best part is that, as Captain, you just order the boat to go in a certain direction and the crew takes care of it all for you.
