Gorgeous. Colors of the water and sky, combined with the lighting and shadows really makes for some nice shots.

Agreed. Those are lovely, tonschk.

What's wrong on these pictures:

EDIT: Sorry for the size - after resize they are stretched and look plain ugly, so I just use original size.

It's even better than that.

So I rushed outside, only to see the exterior turn green upon me leaving the hatch. This picture was taken in first person view, not with the external camera.

On the first photo a destroyer is running backwards. It's one of 4 destroyers from a HK group that had hunted me for 6 hours after called by a convoy I attacked (at least 6 hours - I stopped watching them as they were still looking for me). 2 of the 4 destroyers were running backwards all that time, making me wonder a lot about what could be the cause of that behaviour.

On the third photo you see a DC run. No DCs were being dropped though...

External camera, which I never used before, may be fun for a few times, but after 2-3 days of abusing it I discovered it completely kills the immersion. Switching it off after current patrol - the screenshots I took were not worth losing what all the game is about.

EDIT: One more until I can:

You don't have to use it to "cheat". Have it on, but never use it to help me evade. Can enjoy the pretty pictures and make some screenshots when desired.

Nah. It's too tempting when feeling lazy - let's check the flag on this ship fast, why waste so much fuel only to chase 90% chance German ship? (Norway, May '40). I can refuse the temptation, but in the first place I don't even want to be tempted.

Thank you , the shadows settings have been tweaked by myself, the stock SH5 dynamic shadows are ugly blurred
