whoops... wrong translation word. I mean not annoying, but historically wrong (especially for germans). But it seems to be only for me.

Don't misunderstand me: You (and all the other modders) are making the work, normally the dev's should do, as they earn the money. You guys will earn only respect and honor. So this is not critism but let's say "feature requests".
Please amplify your "annoying /wrong comment"... just curious as I am a Mech Enginner almost 40 and have been readyng for over 25 yrs on everything that covers WW2.

I mean no german submarine guy got english mission briefings. So, especially for germans like me, it's a bit historically incorrect to get english mission briefings. I'm on it to translate all messeges to german so lurker can release them as an optional mod for all buddys like me.

As said, excellent work!

If the mission briefings are to be German, please, please, please make it an option, I like to know what my mission is before I leave the dock.

If Lurker is up to it, I bet the help to translate would be very helpful indeed.

Default enter key disable

BTW thanks for disabling the keypad´s enter torpedo firing, I would have arrived in Scapa Flow without a single torpedo.

you have the mission orders as separate doc or txt files to begin tranlating to spanish?

glad to be of help in your mod.

Hi Titanium! RFB and TM are two "supermods" for SH4. Both add a whole lot to gameplay, with RFB concentrating on realism. current support is only for SHv1.5, but I think there are still links for 1.4 versions.

If I'm not mistaken, OM is only for SH v1.5, with the U Boat missions.

I installed OpsMonsun V301 and OM_V301_Patch 1 few a while ago... read the documentation... looks really interesting.

I started the July 1943 game. I found out that my IXC/40 looks like the one in SH3. I dunno about u guys but I like the new skin for the boat (ie stock U Boat missions IXD). Its just personal preference... no offense to the mod devs.

Is it possible for me to change the skin of the IXC/40 in the mod to the one in the stock game? I just want my sub to look like the original SH4 skin... no other change.

The IXC/40 is from SH3 and it's not possible to use the skin from the SH4 IXD2 with the SH3 IX/C40

Sorry for asking stupid questions lol...

I just started a new game at Aug, 43 and got the nice looking boat. Didnt see that before making the above post.

The new IXD doesnt look exactly like the stock one tho... new skin for the bridge and hull it seems? Personally I dont understand why someone would want old SH3 skins on new better looking models... Hey atleast I have a IXD heheh.

Nice mod tho... real tough... cant even kill a plane

That is a confusing aspect of these boats.

Yes, diving would be the most prudent thing to do, so why is it over the course of the war AA platforms were not entirely removed, and the tower cut down to nearly nothing?

I am not certain, but I think the whole aircraft being dived from every time an aircraft showed up is a little over blown, especially for boats in the shallow water.

From what I have read, along with my experience in the sims is that the sub was put through evasive maneuvers on the surface, while the gun crews tried to mess up the attacking plane's bomb or strafe run, once the plane was past, the bridge and guns were cleared and the boat dived.

In the sim I have noticed that if I just dive at the site of aircraft, I get the hell depth charged out of me. If I do the surface maneuvering gun battle, then dive, the likely hood of getting charged to oblivian decreases a whole lot.
