After you download RSRDC plus patches "how" did you do the install ? How did you decompress the "packages" and where did you put them?

Was it the Momi "Patrol Craft" or DD. Also Matsu Class was a separate class of ship.

I used 7-Zip and installed the files in subfolders that I created under the Mods folder. I thought that I would see new/different Single Missions and Single Patrols from the stock game but I have the exact same Missions/Patrols titles under the Mods directory as I do in the orginal game Missions/Patrols folders. Perhaps, this is the way it should be and I'm just making an incorrect assumption? The game is running fine. Thanks.

You have a “install problem” Please deinstall RSRDC with JSGME. The go to the MOD folder and look for RSRDC_V355_for V15 folder, go into that folder and do you see a second “RSRDC_V355_for V15” folder or do you see a “Data” & “Support” folder. If you see a second “RSRDC_V355_for V15” folder then you decompressed the mod incorrectly. The file structure for a valid JSME install is “mod name” then a data & support folder under it. If you have “two” RSRDC folder then “move” the second folder up one level

My folder structure is correct: Mod Name/Data/Support. Should I see different Single Missions/Patrols under the Mods folder than are listed in the games stock Single Missions/Patrols folders? Thanks again for your prompt help on this.

You should see the following

New Single Missions

FBM 420604 USS Nautilus (SS-168) – Battle of Midway

I guess, I was thinking of this one:

Henceforth it is still missing one part of the bow wave

On a different note; for those evenings when there is not enough time to load up a "Patrol", try this;

FBM 441117 USS Spadefish (SS-411) - Engagement of Convoy HI-81

Get into position fire your fish and batten down the hatches!:o

Thats all I am saying, enjoy!

Oh, this is with RSRDC plus TMO 1.5.2, nothing else needed.

Hey Lurker

First may I again congratulate you with your acomplishments with this mod. Awesome i one word that comes to mind.

To help you with the convoy zigzagging you might want to take a look at this forum, that in this thread has images containing original japanese navy zigzaggin patterns. It might come inhandy if you were running out of ideas.

ps. i have ofcourse saved the images on my local drive - should they dissapear

Thanks for the info. I'm already a member of that forum. tater built some of those pattern a while ago and I did some test with them, however because of the large number of way points made the campaign layer so large that it had a serious impact on load times and playability

Rgr. I did think about that possibility. The magnitude of your work bears the mark of a well studied subject. :rock:

RSRDC Eye candy fix

This corrects some of the “eye candy” issues some users have commented about. It has to do with “ship wakes”. This is a “non-critical” fix for RSRDC and will load on “any” version of the mod (v14 / v15).

Install instructions:

Use JSGME to install.
Install “fix” after loading RSRDC plus patches.
Can be install at “any time” ( don’t have to be inport” )



go to first post for link

compatible with TMO 152?
 

lurker

tried rsrd with TMO 152... got some stuttering on the water... but dont know if it was caused by a "collision", heres my mod structure:

REL_TriggerMaru_Overhaul_152
RSRDC_TMOv15_V371
RSRDC_V371_Patch8


comments are welcome...

NOTE: this is the first time I have run 152.... so I have no comparison to standard 152 vs RSRD mod 152

thanks

There is no problems I know of with TMO 152

Patch 8 installation
 

I'm currently using the TM version of RSRDC + patch 7.
To update RSRDC, all I need to do is remove patch 7 & install patch 8?
Thanks for confirmation/clarification.

That is correct

I have TMO + RSRD installed. I have to say that I'm glad that I came back to the subsim community when I did. When I left SHIV was still floundering with all of the out-of-the-box bugs and there was much doom and gloom about patches. There were many debate threads about "They've abandoned us."

I have to say that RSRD makes SHIV a whole new game and really freshens it up. Great job Lurker.

Anybody ever create a map of those traffic lanes?:up:

Hey Lurker, FYI. The aircraft cfg files in the latest version of RSRD overwrite all the work Ducimus did 'up-armoring' the aircraft in TMO 152. The file "ALBS_H8K.cfg" is a good example.

The RSRD version of the file does not contain this:

[Loadout 1]
Name=16x250Kg Bombs
Type=2

[Loadout 2]
Name=8xDepth Charge
Type=5

Just thought you should know. Or am I worried about nothing here? Anyway, are there any other areas that might be a problem?
.

That's what I'm talking about. Whenever I get into a patrol I go to my Nav map and do the best I can to recreate whatever shipping lanes were present in the timeframe and area I'll be operating. I wonder if there's a map tool mod that adds a tool that will allow you to draw curved lines.
