I am running a out of the box SH4 that I tried to load Vers 1.4 into. Not sure if it worked. My real question concerns Japanese radar. Some threads say (as well as historical docs) their radar was not as effective as ours. But even on missions in 1943, it seems they spot me from a long way off - in excess of 3 miles as I am at 25-29 ft. Also, in the Map screen, when enemy ships get close there are large and small circles around the ships. I assume the circles indicate the area of their radar or spotting ability - is that correct?
Thanks
