Description
Ensure you have all dependencies installed & loaded before UBE & enabled in the launcher

(back from the dead and on life support) Updated to Version 0.8.8 [2025.1] !

See the Change Notes here

When will UBE be finished?

Until I release UBE Version 1.0.0 , this mod is in a Work in Progress [WIP] state.
Features may be added, removed, changed during the mods development, It is a careful balance between figuring out what works and what doesn't.
When is Release?
Hopefully, shortly (a few months) after Uboats final release. However, this does not mean that there wont be new "Expanded" Mods or new integration following release.
Features
Feature List

man, problems after problems. why is sink warships on horten mission not working, like i select it but it doesnt apply like i never accepted it. and even if i sail there and get notifications there are like 8 ships there and masts are in sight then when i get close i get alarm but no ships around

anyone knows what causes enemy fleets to just stop in place and do spinjutsu when torpedoes start to hit?
Volpeusz 4 Sep @ 11:25am 
okay i encountered immortal french warship fleet

i dont really know what to do in supporting invasion of france. they dont seem to have any cargo ships, ports are only point on map without actual port so over half of them have no great use, there are french warships escorting british cargo ships, but destroying those warships doesnt seem to do anything so i go back and i see i suddenly got points to this mission but i have no idea what i did to get those points

Would be real cool if they didn't mess with the fast forward. Why is 15,000x actually 2048x? That is 13% of the vanilla. 1800x is actually just over 50% that, 1024x That makes the game more fun?

Loving this mod but man does it make Norway escort near impossible. Fleet of 2 Destroyers, 2 Corvettes, 1 light cruiser, and 2 refit cargo ships. I like to think I'm ok at this game but they wipe my fleet every time. I either die myself or can't kill them all fast enough.

If there a current compatible mod for this that makes gerrman flags on the uboat historically accurate?
CptnTorro 21 Aug @ 6:17am
