Patch 4 is ready and I think that's gonna be it for the next period...
The Wolves of Steel 1.03 - Patch 4 changelog:
Snapshot changes:
-
Other tweaks:
- Enabled TDW periscopes spray/wakes (UBoot_Sensors.fx)
- Enabled red distress flares, when 100% zone damage (zone.cfg)
- Ark Royal zon file, she will capsize now when destroyed...or be destroyed when capsized... :P. Test mission included.
- New loading background
- As always...waves settings
- Removed distracting tonnage bar. Don't worry, Trevally's Open Horizons II campaign is carefully tuned not to require from player to fulfill all the missions so if you fail some, your career will still continue. So, keep calm, sink ships and enjoy the campaign...
If you can't live without tonnage bar thing from some reason, then enable
