The DD's hear me just fine, come charging over pinging, then circle around, passing right above me over and over, without ever dropping any charges. Eventually I realized that I could run around at flank speed at periscope depth, loading torpedos and taking potshots at aircraft carriers, as if the DD's weren't even there. One of them actually ran into my periscope once while I was ignoring them, but again dropped no charges.

If I surface the escorts DO engage me with their guns (although their aim sucks big time), but under ten feet of water I am invincible.

Is there a fix for this? I have a clean 1.5 install with RFB 2.0 + patch as the only mod.
If you are playing with the external cam on take a good look at the escorts on the surface they all missing the deadcharge racks,they can hear you but they cannot damage you,i report this a while back

Well, I uninstalled SH4, deleted my saves, reinstalled everything in the proper order (SH4, Uboat Missions, RFB, RFB patch, RSRD, RSRD patch) using JSGME, and started a new (third) campaign. First patrol, I encountered a taskforce of 10 destroyers, attempted to engage, got my periscope spotted, and got thoroughly depth charged!

Two things were different this install- one, I used JSGME rather than manually installing mods, and two, I installed RSRD (before I was using RFB alone). So, don't really know what fixed my problem, I'm just glad the IJN is finally on the job!
