OK I downloaded your NO underwater FX patch and will apply it and try it in a few minutes.

My locations were in the gulf south of Spain. It's in the yellow area. I made a trip to Freetown and Dakar which travel some orange areas. Medium Fog with high winds the whole way.

I can go to a port and the weather gets better but after I travel back into my hunting grounds in the gulf south of Spain, the fog and high waves and wind come back usually by the time I get into the shipping lanes.

Edit...

OK I applied your patch and it works like a charm. I must have screwed something up when I tried.

here is my mod list as applied at the moment in case anyone wants to know.

Something i've been thinking of, because i noticed when medium fog night times we can still see stars as if no fog, would be nice to get blurred stars as like sun in day time with medium fog...:hmmm:

Is it possible? :D

Known bugs and limitations:
  • low precipitations occurrence, excessive medium fog occurrence, presence of fog even during wind storms, stars visible during foggy and/or cloudy nights, weather resetting to foggy after loading a save game (whatever was the weather before saving), and Navigation Officer reporting the wrong weather after a save game reload, are known SH5 limitations that cannot be addressed with the present mod;

Yes, I retained stock sizes because it is known that some species of kelp can grow up to 50 m long, but scaling them down (with the same method used by echolot for trees) is possible. Good idea for one of the next releases :up:

I remember when I used The Dark Wraiths custom patcher I selected something that would let me bottom my uboat. Doesn't seem to be working. I hover 10 meters or so above the sea floor and my uboat takes damage even just sitting a 0 knots...

I don't think it to be related with DynEnv in any way; I suggest you to check the correct working of the sub on bottom patch with DynEnv disabled. If nothing changes, you might want to report the problem on TDW's patches thread.

here is my mod list as applied at the moment in case anyone wants to know.

Wind speed range for your current date/patrol area (yellow band SW of Spain) should be 1-7 kph; season: summer; weather change interval: 5-48 h. I have just checked DynEn settings for it, and everything seems okay. Looks like something is wrong with your game, or at least with your DynEnv installation.
By any chance, have you started using this mod (any version) in mid patrol?

If so, you should try disabling Main Mod and Ambient Settings - Darker Nights optional mod, and reenable them the next time you are in bunker;
if it doesn't work, disable them again, and reenable them once more at the start of a new campaign;
if it still doesn't work, try restarting a new career.

If you were using v 2.1 whe you started your current career, switching to v 2.9 shouldn't cause any problem though :hmm2:

Thank you for the reminder, Volodya :salute:

I don't exclude that some of the known limitations won't be fixed sometime in the future, but I cannot make guarantee on it, because either they are hardcoded, or we don't know the settings controlling them :-?

No, it is not. You can fix yourself the problem by following the method suggested by me a few posts back (just delete the data/Shaders/Wakes folder in DynEnv v2.9 - 9. Sobers Best Ever Tweaks, before you enable it :up:

:03:Got it!

No, unfortunately not; submods with the same progressive number are alternative (they are overwriting each other): unlike trees, terrain etc, there's no way to set different seaplant textures to work at the same time for different climatic zones. Nonetheless, you can switch among them any time, even in mid patrol :salute:

:up: Again, Thanks my friend.

Thanks for your answers Volodya and Gap.
Ok, missed those lines in the first post...there is always so much to read and learn everywhere in this forum! :haha:

I'm no modder expert in any case, but seeing sun being blurred with fog in day time, i don't see why it can't be done with stars in night time...
Both are above clouds and fog :D
Well, maybe one day you'll discover the soluce!

No this game was started as a new Campaign with OHII V2.0 and DynEnv 2.9. I'll try removing the Darker Nights mod next time I'm in a bunker and see if that has an effect on waves... but now I'm in July 29 and going northeast to take out the British supplies. So far the waves seem pretty normal. Fog has been ok too for most part. Ran into a patch of heavy rain once too. But it didn't seem to last but about 12 hours or so.

One thing I've noticed is the radio guy will not give me a radar contact on my nav map or any verbal notice. Yet the radar is picking up contact blips from as far as 8000 meters or there abouts. Granted this is the first version of the radar that has the antenna panels on the conning tower. Only a 60 degree coverage both sides I believe. But much testing reveals the guy doesn't even know what a rader unit is. I don't know if this is DynEnv causing this or something else. Seems like a bug in the executable of radar detection notification.

Okay, weather around England seems regular for your current season, but what happened W of Gibraltar is not normal. Let me know in case you bump again into unusual weather. Disabling the Darker Nights submod alone would be pointless: it only affects environment colors. :up:

Very little is known about radars in SH5. No one seemed to care much about them. Despite this lack of information, I can give you as fact that DynEnv cannot affect radar contact reports. If there's a problem with them, it must come from stock game :03: :yep:

Gap, I really appreciate your hard work with this but...

Now if I upgrade Dynamic Environment to 2.9, I've gotta start my campaign all over again. I'm gonna :wah:. ;) I will save it tho for when Dead Is Dead happens to my crew.

Keep up the good work. :up:

If you had started your current campaign with DynEnv 2.1 enabled, you don't need to start a new one :up:

GT182 03-04-13 07:46 PM

Do I unintall 2.1 then install 2.9 and all is Ok. Or just install 2.9 and overwrite 2.1?
