[REL] Operation Monsun

[spike12]

I noticed that too,so I used s3d to fix the type 2's speed and range.

I just noticed something wrong and need confirmation if it's general or just a corrupted install of my OM400.

Config: OM400 patched up to third patch.
Bug: While in mission, I go to the Rec Manual (N key) then choose a country, other than the main combatants, Panama for instance. The first ship silhouette appears OK, then when I press the scroll left button << the game CTD.

The same behaviour happens in tha case of other countries too, like Brazil.
Please can anyone confirm or dismiss this?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your trouble report

You have found a "bug" that been in OM since "day one". I loaded up the original v100 and recreated your problem. I believe I know what the problem is, and hopeful have a patch out shortly

Lurker, you left me speechless. Just tonight I was reporting the problem and this morning, when I woke up, I already found your correction.
Saying THANK YOU is not enough. You are a most efficient and dedicate modder and this community should be very grateful for your effort. Sir, you

I have a MAJOR problem with using Monsun. I have been playing SH4 for a month now with only a couple of minor issues. Yesterday I installed Monsun and started a Uboat career in a IX boat, 1939. I have since had 3 major crashes with my system. One was a system crash and reboot, the other two have been total system shutdowns. This is extremely unusual for my system to react in this way for any reason.

My rig has been bulletproof for months, no matter what I throw at it. After the first crash I had taken steps to eliminate any system based issue such as running check disc, a full defrag, registry backup and clean, ran memtest, done a clean driver re-install etc etc.

I still have to fully test out that it is definately the mod, by removing it and attempting a heavy gaming session on something like Crysis which taxes the system to its fullest. But as I said it is extremely unlikely to be anything other than this, as these issues had not arrisen till I installed Monsun.

At the point of the total system shutdowns I am outside the channel of the Gibralter straights in my IX boat. I am on patrol as per mission instruction and have been loitering in the area for a number of days.

I can provide a game save file from a few hours prior to the total system shutdown occurs and a Dxdiag of my system if required ( pm me).

Please advise.

I have never seen this happen, nor have I had a report like this from "anyone" since the release of OM.

You need to provide the following:

A complete list of all modes and what order they are installed in
What Flotilla are you assign to
What mode of Type IX
What "dates" did these CTD / System crash

Sorry to have overreacted but it appears on further inspection of the system that it is a hardware fault and not related to your mod. I most humbly beg your apology. I got two more powerdowns during a crysis playtest and I stripped down the system after the last one to find my PSU unit was excessivly hot. I believe that the fan has failed on the unit. This must have happened yesterday after I had downloaded your mod, and it appears its just coincedence. I have replaced it with a spare, and I will now thoroughly test the system again in Crysis to ensure all is well.

Again, my apologies.

*EDIT* I have now installed your new patch and started a new career and I think I have found a couple of bugs. I started a new career again in a IX boat but the control room is a bit messed up. The first and second watch have 4 crew spaces but the third watch only has 3 crew spaces available. This means you always down a control room crew man. I also checked with a type VII and thats the same, the third watch is missing a crewman slot in the control room. And I am also starting with one extra officer more than I am supposed to have (possibly related?).

EDIT2* It seems like the torpedo dud chance is bugged also. I just went out on patrol and every torpedo bar one was a dud using contact pistols. I only used the standard german torpedo (G7A?).

IRT your “dud” torpedoes, please look at this picture
