2024.1 (Preview 26)

Dear captains,

There is a new patch ready for 2024.1 beta.

Stern gyro angle receiver is now implemented for manual use on Type VII U-boats. Warning: There may be minor issues present with it in old game states until changing the boat at least once to a different type.

Updates to Type VII textures.
Fix: DLSS, FSR, TAA and motion blur effects weren't working correctly on the sky. This had various side effects, for example, it could blur the stars on the sky.
Fix: Dido-class cruisers didn't had a correctly rendered ambient on them and looked somewhat off.
Fix: Labels on the map could intensively flicker during cutscenes, if FSR or DLSS were used.
Fix: Smoke could sometimes appear for a short time in the middle of the sea with no ships nearby.
Fix (regression): Wrong texture was appearing on the table in battery room no. 2 after it was folded out.

Fix: Targeting symbols on a contact list weren't disappearing outside scroll range.
Fix: Gyro angle displayed in the tooltips on a gyro angle receiver, was sometimes outside of the range used on the physical dials (0 to 360 degrees).
Fix: When there were any orders listed in the bottom left part of the screen, they were clipping with buttons used to switch the map modes.

Fix: When Uboatopedia was opened, there was a pause sound effect played in the background.

Fix: Some areas were a bit too shallow near Brest and it was hard to leave the port during a low tide.

Fix: Improved alignment of several crew animations related to torpedo loading in the stern torpedo room and animations used near engines on Type VIIs.

Fix: U-boat was moving considerably slower than it should with its current speed, on the two highest time compression levels.
Fix: Shot down aircraft floating on the sea could explode after being rammed by an U-boat.

Yours,
DWS
