The "no-render" distance is very narrow actually, no reason for that. So it is definitely a bug. I have all graphical settings on Max, Radeon RX 6600M. The video of the bug "in action":

I'm done yesterday a test of this behavior in the campaign (August 1943) where I have a convoy with more as 30 ship + 8 or 10 escort ship in front of me and I do not have this issue/bug with the smoke.

Strange, could it be hardware related? I have a relatively seldom video card -- Radeon RX 6700M (laptop version).

I try to play with the video settings as well -- for now they all at max, I'll see if any reduction will effect the issue.

I have a Radeon RX 5600XT (OC) but you one have more power.


I have, since 1 or 2 years the issue that I do not have exhaust smoke on the sub or just can't see it. So far I haven't been able to determine what's causing it, because it worked in past. I think this could be an issue the driver or a driver update from AMD in past.

What's with ammo, when crew shooting airplanes? It doesn't decrease.

I have sunk a ship today, a british merchant around Narvik. I couldn't find it in the recognition manual, his name was a bit strange... something like NCFG_CS

Not sure if it comes from a mod or not but anyone know them ?

There's no ship in Sea folder named NCFG, so can't help you here. _CS at the end denotes version of the ship that is used for coastal shipping (some ships can sail both in atlantic and coastal convoys, but because they need to be part of different ship classes for this, they are "cloned" (duplicated).

Default Camera out of sector

Has anyone else encountered this problem. When first person everything is fine. When I do the initial exterior view I can see the boat chugging away with out me. When I click the button to center the view on my boat the screen goes black and I get the message camera out of sector.

How do I fix this? I know many don't play with the exterior view but I enjoy watching the boat whether on the surface or underwater.

Which mods do you use and in which order?

Interior Food Stocks does not work well with external cams active and causes the out of sectors issue. Disable that mod and you will solve the problem, or play without ext. cams.

Recommended: use the GrenSo Environment mod and you will not have any problem.

Best regards.

Ah thanks I cannot remember the exact name but it was just 4 letters followed by the _CS and yes it was in the coast near Narvik so yes it makes sense, just don't know what was this name.

I checked in museum and there are ships pictures.
