It would be great if anyone could help me with that.Hope someone around here is still playing this old sim and remembers a thing or two about it.

Thanks anyway and have a nice day everyone,

[Shake'em Mission]
There are several very deep holes at the bottom near where the scenario starts. Keep your speed as slow as you can, put out your towed array and sink down into one of those holes. Turn off your engines and drift. Eventually they won't hear you any more and you'll win the mission. (I'll have to try it now.)


[Escape]
Escape took me 1 hour and 16 minutes to win. Use the "Contour Imaging System" (C key) to
get a better idea of what's in front of you. Use only 1/3 power the whole time and stay as deep as you can in the center of the strait. I had about 2 pixels between the bottom of my sub marker and the bottom marker. A couple of times you will see his subs as "X" contacts, but remember that your sonar is probably twice as good as his. You should use your towed
array the whole time. In 688 I never use the top down views, the Contour view is quicker and cleaner.
