Oh ... this is actually a rather unusual problem.

Please excuse my following questions - they are exclusively for systematic troubleshooting.
1. Which version of SH4 is installed?
2. Has a new SH4 folder been created under "My Documents"?
3. Was the 4GB_Patch or alternatively LAA installed?
4. Was my installation sequence kept via JSGME? (A snapshot of the JSGME would be helpful)

The red marked modes - I do not know and could cause problems...
Test the pack better first without these modes. :03:

No unfortunately. I disabled the unnecessary mods and the same thing is still happening. :(

I'll keep troubleshooting.

Bleiente 04-26-17 05:37 AM

What kind of hardware do you have?

It could be that my ModPack takes the hardware strong claim in its entirety.
Alternative, you can disable the BetaUpdate from ModPack, it is experimental and needs a revision...

Further ideas...?

james_nix 04-27-17 03:26 AM

Got it working! I had to run it in administrative mode.

Don't know why or how that makes a difference. It's not in Program Files but it's own directory.

Cheers!

Bleiente 04-27-17 06:20 AM

Good to hear - I'm glad it's going now.
Had also had no idea why it did not work properly before...

Hope you like the compilation.
Have fun - Cheers :Kaleun_Cheers:

Revision Ralles ModPack V1.3
https://workupload.com/file/dybLZ7s

Replaces all previous versions of Ralles ModPack for TMO_RSRDC_OTC.
Please note installation instructions in the first post.

Remark:
This replaces only the ModPack for TMO_RSRDC_OTC.
The proper installation of TMO_RSRDC_OTC before the ModPack is therefore absolutely necessary for the function.

So far it was known:

Wow, Bleiente, I've got to quit doing all this "end of school year" stuff for my kids, modding and testing of mods, and just do me some play time - oh wait... gotta go get furniture tomorrow... dunno what we're going to do with the old stuff yet... :lol: - Pray for me. I'm an old man, and shouldn't be doing that kind of stuff... that's my story, and I'm stickin' to it... :roll:

Hi Beliente,

One question, is the Traveller harder enemy escorts for TMO makes AI escrots ahrder than OTC Tokko's revenge?? :hmmm:

Bleiente 05-15-17 11:37 PM

This question can not be answered very clearly, since it concerns two entirely different approaches of solution between the Traveller (Harder Enemy AI Escorts) and OTC (Tokko`s Revenge).

This optional mod creates a heightened AI awareness and strength, giving the player a much harder game. Tokko means "special attack" or "tactics" (which also was referred to as “Kamikaze”). There will be additional planes added to the OTC version, but not too many as to make the game unplayable. The actual number of planes will follow the TMO 2.5 parameters. However, the planes will have a greater capacity to hunt you down, and use heavier hitting bombs, without resorting to “seeing” you through deep water.


The Japanese warships will have a higher level of "awareness" to find you and use whatever tools they have to suppress your presence. Their depth charges will be more deadly, and more prolonged. A few other changes that will keep you on your guard when making an attack will be added. All in all, a much harder opponent with deadlier consequences if you let your guard down.

Where is the problem, or can you specify your question?

No problem at all. Just wondering if they are "compatible".

On a different matter, I was playing my 3rd patrol with many game saves. I exited the game and for no reason at all, ALL of my 3rd patrol saved games became corrput :o :timeout:

Has this ever happened to you before? Is there anyway to recover any of those saved games?? I'm talking about 8 different saves. :doh:


By the way, how normal is to patrol all along Japanese coastlines in March 1942 for days and not been spotted by any plane at all? o.O

It is not quite compatible.
Try this adjustment, maybe you like it better:

Personally, this has not yet happened.
Perhaps with you was already the first safe file defective...

How close are you to the Japanese coast patrolled?
The air traffic was actually corrected by OTC, I myself have made no changes.

Like no more than 100km away from land, throughout all Jap coast. I could day cruise everyday and....isn't that suppose to be weird?


To test that, I changed area, this time I went to the Solomons area and the only thing that appears are sea planes unnarmed!! If I don0t submerge, a lot will come in but completley unarmed and even like that, they dare to attack with slingshots maybe?

I'm used to TMO_RSRD without OTC (years ago), but with the OTC mod, planes and sometimes escorts behave in an unusual way (at least to me). As again, planes with not even a single bomb or 20kg rock to throw? :doh: :timeout:

LCQ_SH 05-28-17 07:45 PM

Another example, in the Solomons area, I engaged a Fubuki DD , failed to sink and I said "damn...time to run". The DD just made two runs, 8 DC thrown max, and then just circled around like if it would have ran out. I even try to test him at periscope depth ahead flank. He knew where I was but no trying to kill me :doh: o.O
