Lurker, may have to shoot me for this but here goes.

The equipment upgrade schedules are historical. So if it was not available at that date it will not show up. I have a terrible time keeping details in my head, sorry.

Thanks Wilcke, but it's may 1941... and I'm still in the sub from 1939 with the equipment from that period...and I experience a fast improuvement in weaponquality on the opposite side...
Nevertheless, if this is correct in the game, no worry's, my revenche is on its way.

Meanwhile its januari 1942 and I still have "no upgrades"..?
Is it correct that I stumble around with my 1939 boot and not the least upgrade, even the torps..?

Lurker, many thanks !
I notice that 1.06.1942 is the first date for an upgrade..! So, I'm almost there. I wasn't giving critisisme, I wouldn't dare ! I was just wondering if perhaps I had installed something wrong.
I pity the Germans who had to wait 3 years for some improvement..!

As for v.400, I know, but I enjoy the modded game so much, I choose to finish the v400 first, and then will install the v500, which, I think, has different objectives.
Meanwhile the v500 is already some days in my folder.

And I would ad something : I find it fantastic that you and all the others are doing such marvellous job, out of free will, not payed, and on top of that it seems you follow even the treads on the forums and react in an instant.
I yet have to experience that I have to wait ONE day and not recieve 3 to 4 answers..! For that, as we say in Europ, "chapeau" !!

Default OM Users Beware

IRT to the above mod


I did a code review of the changes made by this mod to OM and noted the following:
  • The base line of this mod is two versions behind OM ( v301 vs 500 )
  • The “v 3.0 Jyunsen B mod” overwrites the Flotillas.upc and CareerStart.upc which “destroys” the OM Campaign and makes the rest of OM v301 useless.
  • Overwrites CrewMembers.upc files that cause Uboats to no longer have “crewmember”, i.e. “all” crew slots are now “empty”
  • Overwrites the Type II interior files with ones that are “Out of Date”
OM Users beware.

I just downloaded OM 500.

I could add my ships to the flotillas and careerstart .upc so as to be able to use them in the full OM campaign. Remember that a few IJN subs made it to France, and that german propaganda claimed they were operating in the Atlantic along with the U-Boots.

I can remove the crewmember.upc

I can remove the type II interrior files, as my Kaichu uses them, if yours have the same names it'll be ok.

I will submit it to you before posting if that's ok ? I only tried to do a patch because some people wanted to use my ships with OM and I had a little time to work on it.

Rene,

Also possible is that the ship was "going" to sink but just not immediately. Give it time for the ship's compartments to flood and you'll have your tonnage.
