I guess it's because of the HDR.. If there's an option to turn off the bloom, maybe AA would work?

First of all, bloom and HDR are not the same thing. You can have bloom with AA on all cards afaik. I believe the postprocessing effects and other technologies of the SH4 engine can't coexist with AA. We'll have to wait. (actually, I'm still downloading the game,lol, late start)

Hmm, you seem to know a lot about this don't you Razz Well, in the options you can turn on/off post-processing effects. Let me try turn them off and see if it helped.

I'll keep you updated.

Found another big bug. Its also in SH3, AI ships that are close to land "patrolling" tend to just crash ashore basically destroying them. Had that with planes in SH3 as well, they would just circle and lose altitude until BAM!... I thought I was fired at first as I heard these huge explosions but found out it was a patrol boat that had committed harakiri! Razz

It's in your installation's rootfolder. It's a JPEG. I printed it and it's very clear.

Nope mate, haven't a clue.. It's shite though isn't it. Music is loud enough though the sounds that actually matter are way to soft.

It's bumming the hell out of me Sad

I just put 11 torpedo's into the Large Modern Tanker on the Convoy attack tutorial. Fires on deck, holes in hull, 4 hours later it was still speeding away as if nothing had happened and a destroyer sunk me. What bullshit.

Also, the game does not inform you in any way if you've been hit by depth charges, nor does it slow down your time compression. You have to realize your depth is changing or keep checking damage control to figure out you've taken hits.

Fucking rushed junk. Nothing works.

@javlar, I could not get the chronometer to work either...bug maybe. Running in automatic mode atm Sad Well sure the game have a couple of bugs and features missing. I guess we will see a patch at least till summer...that is if UBI keeps up the pace they have now regarding game support.

It does seem quite rushed actually Sad

Only played for a total of 5-6 hours and already ran into numerous bugs, like for instance twice my uboat have begun sinking at 5-10 meters/second without any reason whatsoever and then BAM you're stuck at the bottom with no way to get up.

The game is stunning visually and the physics and so on seem very good. Just needs a patch and some mods Razz

I am actually wishing for a German Atlantic mod already. The pacific theater where never my thing really. And i miss the interface being slid out from the left side, keep forgetting and end up just clicking in mid air Razz Also the look out giving you direction and speed etc would be sooo much cooler...just like in SH3. Now you have to run between 2-3 stations just to get a good bearing.

Oh well, SH4 is for sure a feast of eye candy that's for sure, will hard play it some more in the week of course and get more in to the career I started. I am sure it will be fine in the end, like you said "Just needs a patch and some mods"

Man this is great fun. The controls are a bit off after playing SH3 for long and the sound mix is strange (loud music, the rest silent) but the gameplay and visuals are top notch. And I was shocked to see how well SH4 performs on my laptop (has "only" a NV7400Go), it performs just as well as SH3 but looks much better even at medium settings. And the drivers under vista cannot even considered to be beta. So with better drivers SH4 does perform just as well as SH3 but with my native res of 1280x800.



I must admit though that SH4 is a bit on the buggy side. I had some strange things happen too. Once the eyes of my crewman got bigger like them beeing on drugs Wink

But a patch here and there, a faster driver and a mod and SH4 will be great. I've seen enough of Atlantic Warfare for the moment. Pacific is nice for a change. Although I must admit that when you think of Uboats I think of German ones. The Atlantic theatre is more fun (at least to me). SH5 anyone?
