To correct

go to WDAD\Data\Library\USSubParts\

Open "Sensors_sub_RN.sim" with S3D

find node 11

Having read a lot of books about US subs in PTO, wondering if any good ones about British subs? Any of the skippers write memoirs after war?

loaded this mod up but had some issues.The observation scope kept going up and down, up and down on its own but couldnt access it, couldnt access the attack scope either.no free cam for conning tower? also the conning tower was missing on the outside. I realize this is first version with only 1 patch, mod has potential though.I try it again.

As someone who will use it, hope you dont mind a suggestion or two to keep in mind.If at all possible, British voices is a much needed immersion factor. Free cam for control room, conning tower and bridge, like TMO's free cam.Many people I have talked to always disliked the fixed positions from stock.Better UI.

I like the idea of British subs and am looking forward to the refined versions, esp in the ETO(PTO is my main area bur British subs in the Med, North Sea etc will be a blast)

Thanks for the work.

First it appears based on your statement that you failed to follow the install instrutions.

Quote:
Install instructions:

WDAD should “ONLY” be installed over a clean install of SH4 v1.5 and WDAD is “NOT” compatable with any other MODS.
This statement is a dead give away that this is "NOT" a clean install

also the conning tower was missing on the outside
Also if there was something fundamentally wrong with mod I think one of the 309 people besides your self who have downloaded and installed this mod would have said something

These are basically the same problem, caused by not having the conning tower, which is where the scopes are. So as Lurker stated, when all else fails, "Read the directions"

mod has been fully functionnal on my end from day 1

I play it over a clean version of SHIV 1.5, then deinstall it, and load up my jap boats when it so suits me, I never mix mods

I haven't got a clue why, but all of a sudden the gauges work normally.
I didn't change anything since my last test, but now everything works as expected.

Really strange.

Bubblehead, would recomend; Crash Dive - HMS Safari, really good book great insight into life on and of the submirine in med during wWII.

It's written by one of the crew based on diary he kept durning time onboard the sub, Believe the capt of the Safari also had couple of books published but dont know the titles. Hope the helps

Is there a problem with the hosting of this mod and the associated patch, as I'm getting a 404 error with both from Filefront. Many thanks.

Default Kilroy was here

Hi all,

I'm not sure if your going to be interested in this image, it's said to have been discovered by a certain Mr Kilroy. He claims he was there when it was taken on April 1st 1941.

The Admralty in London are still trying to confirm the find by photo enharcement techniques which they claim can identify the sailors on the bridge. They have been in working with experts from Subsim.com
who now claim the boat is one of theirs.
