I picked up SH4 a month or two ago also, Fabian. I've enjoyed it alittle bit here and there. It looks like it could a great subsim. Only problem for me is I can't quite grasp how to accurately fire the torpedoes. I've tried on realistic settings - that was put to a stop quickly though Smiley .

So, I tried dumbing the targetting to "easy" and I still can't get it my torps to hit more then 25% of the time Cheesy  Grin Cry

Nice shots by the way!



patch it to V1.4 there was some bugs in the earlier versions where the game engine was actually setting the torpedo's depth in meters instead of feet. Also early in the war american torpedos had unreliable depth keeping and often ran too 10 feet deeper than it was set this is built into the game even on easy Subsim..Alot like Simviation but for subs

I've patch to V1.4 actually. I'm finding my shots are either too far behind, or too far ahead of the target. So, I'm fairly certain the problem is actually me and not the sim Cheesy

Still am having issues with it though - yes, even on easy mode lol

I've given it a break recently though, been doing alot of flying in Falcon 4.0 and Falcon 4.0 AF.
