UBOAT

Dear captains, There is a new patch available for update 2026.1. Changelog: Localization:- Russian localization update by Hard. - German localization update by Ruby. Type IX:- Fix: After assigning officer to one of the AA guns on Turm II, it wasn't possible to assign helpers to him to man the other two AA guns. UI:- Added a display of a type of U-boat to save/load screens. It appears for new save files. Crew:- Fix: Officers were sometimes disappearing after sitting on a bunk. AI:- Fix: Issue with some ships stopping in the middle of ocean. Graphics:- Fix: Toggling red lighting inside U-boat no longer makes screen brighter outside, when darker nights are off.

General:- Fix: Fixes to Royal Oak hull splitting. - Fix: Resolved one game freeze issue caused by the recent water physics optimizations. Yours, DWS

Dear captains, There is a new patch available for update 2026.1. Changelog: Type IX:- Fix: Conning tower damages were sometimes rendered as see-through holes with nothing underneath. - Fix: Resolved issues with conning tower hatches being hard to highlight in FPP. Missions:- Fix: Issue with some missions not being marked as complete. They could keep weather permanently locked in a fixed state. Added code that retroactively fixes this problem in old saves. - Fix: If Python was sunk by HMS Dorsetshire, then it wasn't possible to complete the objective about taking survivors from it on board - the objective wasn't progressing after rescuing them. Graphics:- Fix: Volumetric lights outside U-boat were changing their intensity a bit, depending on the color of lighting inside the U-boat. - Fix: Screen no longer becomes brighter during story sequences when red lighting is enabled inside the U-boat. It was making some of them overexposed. - Fix: Patched code path that could technically cause the purple eye issue. UI:- Fix: Bearing display in binoculars could be frozen (or missing), if there was an officer assigned to UZO and we clicked the manual mode button on the portrait of ano
