No explosions in the game?

Guys,

I started a thread regarding lack of smoke from ship funnels:

But I have also noticed another graphical anomoly. Every time I hit a ship with a torpedo I see NO explsoions. Nothing at all. I might see the masts fall down and the vessel split in two before going under but that is it. Is this correct? From looking at the screenshots section I see lots of smoke and flames on ships that have been hit by a torpedo. But in my game I see none. Is this again a graphics card driver issue? I have an Nvidia Gf4400 128mb with drivers 52.16. My SHIII version is vanilla with patch 1.4. Help please. I want that satisfying boom at times.
