[REL] Operation Monsun

[ccruler]

Thanks Sonicfire, I hadn't seen the part of having to modify a command in the Commands.cfg file to have it work in the original post, but found it now.

Same here. Loading Bar full, you expect to see ships next, but you're transfered right to desktop. (Hope this is the "more information" you were asking for).

Noticed another thing: I can use decoys on my Type VIIB (current date is December 1940) although no decoylauncher installed. these phantom-decoys work pretty well. DDs circling above it, i'm miles away.

Someone said the DDs were too easy: they find me from about 6km distance. i'm not moving, silent running, depht 50m. Something to do with OM?

My current Mods:

TMO 1.7 + Maxoptics
RSRD + Patch 2A
OM V700 + Patch P3

somehow i never have to spend reknown when upgrading crew/sub in port. Its all for free. this might have come up in this thread before, sorry for not reading the entire thing....

As designed

2. I have trouble knowing which nation i am allowed to attack. Ran into a convoy yesterday and managed to sink some freighters of several nations before the DDs even noticed. I got the message that i attacked a neutral nation (dunno which one, was 200m submerged), so i figure this is an issue and i would get negative reknown. Is there any way to implement a chart or something where you can look up the good and evil nations? Or at least remove neutral merchants from enemy convoys?

As designed , you as Captain need to VID ( Visual ID ) your targets before you engage.

3. If I understand the cfg files right The stations depend heavily on mechanic-skill and almost nothing else. On fleet-boats the skills influencing the stations efficiency were very different (and more logical to some extent). Is this right this way?

As designed. Crews are designed to reflect real Uboat crews

4. The available seamen in port are very bad ones. A skillrating above 20 is a very rare occasion. Is this OMs "fault"? If so, what is the name of the file generating these seamen? I dont want "Ubersoldiers" but im used to keyskills of 30+ for good men and 40+ for excelent ones.

Node ID conflict will one of the units added by TMO. No problem with RSRDC / OM loaded at the same time. Trying to fix this CTD is a very "time" consuming and I don't have the time now or in the future to resolve this

All uboats get a "basic" Bubble generator from the start of the war and are upgraded to more advance decoys later on

Hi!
I'm not sure if this is a bug or not.

I've done the right thing and reported contact with a task force and been ordered to "inflict heavy losses". OK, I'll try that-in huge seas with 3 torps left.

Not much luck (though I did get one hit on a Fiji class cruiser) so I sailed away, returned to base, reloaded and went out hunting again.

I aked for a new mission and got the "Proceed with current mission and maintain silence for 12 hours"....but, Uncle Karl, the taskforce is three days away, I don't think I could even find it let alone inflict heavy losses, I just fluked onto it! I completed my patrol and asked for a new assignment.....same deal.

Waited twelve hours, asked again, same result.

I might be wrong, but I think I used to get new missions when I blew an intercept mission.
I'm on TMO 1.7, RSRD and the latest patched OM.

Somehow i thought so. May I ask what considerations made you design it that way?

Sure thing. I know what a swedish flag looks like, a portugesian, a greek etc. But that does not tell me wether this ship is hostile or neutral.

I'll try to understand what you mean.

As designed

Hm. okay. Youre the boss-modder. Still, since i am running my own little crew-management-tool-project: where can i find the sailors currently offered in port? (dont want to tweak that file, no sir, would just like to be able to read it out and import the data into my tool.)

Node ID conflict will one of the units added by TMO. No problem with RSRDC / OM loaded at the same time. Trying to fix this CTD is a very "time" consuming and I don't have the time now or in the future to resolve this

Sorry, but i dont think so:

So no TM below spikes version of OM. But who needs a museum anyways. The Yamato is much more impressive in "real life".

Didnt know that. Thx for lession.

Just out of curiosity: what would happen if a stock UBM-savegame would be loaded with the player-sub being a XVIII?

Last, not least, i cant stress enough how much i love this mod. u did great work.

I guess you didn't see my response to spike12 about 5 post down from the one you quoted

-----------------

My response was based on your comments:

Same here. Loading Bar full, you expect to see ships next, but you're transfered right to desktop. (Hope this is the "more information" you were asking for).

Plus your list of mods

TMO 1.7 + Maxoptics
RSRD + Patch 2A
OM V700 + Patch P3

By the way you should be using Patch2B with RSRDC

FYI that CTD fixes corrects this problem, not your museum load problem

SonicFire,

I had the same question when I started playing with OM. Since then I've found the mod Enemies of Germany and it suits my needs. It shows you in the Help which countries Germany was at war with at a particular time. Check it out. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ies+of+germany

[Sonicfire1981]

T H A T is exactly what i meant. awesome. thanks.

Havent tried it, am on RFB right now. but JSGM knows its there.

[Sailor Steve]

WOW!

I didn't play SH4 until just recently, mainly because my crappy old computer plays it so poorly. I finally decided to go ahead anyway, because the basic platform is such an improvement on SH3. I ended up with RFB and RSRDC, but avoided OpsMonsun because the Pacific u-boat war seemed so limited to me. Then I downloaded it and found out I could run a Type II, Type VII or even a Type IX right at 1939! Awesome!

There are some things I'll miss from SH3, especially the GWX stuff in the harbors. But this is stable, hasn't crashed on me yet once (well, once, but that was because I put in a mod that didn't like another one. And with JSGME and SH4's fast loading times it's not really a problem anyway).

I was immediately turned off by the American voices, though, and since I did the DBSM conversion for SH3 I thought I'd pay Lurker and all back the favor of giving us this great mod by doing it for SH4 as well.

So if you love this mod and love the movie, here ya go!

I just downloaded OP MONSON and the patch,.......I cant wait to play this MOD....I tried to find a copy of SH3 around town and could not, so I am looking forward to playing U-Boats with SH4..............A BIG THANK YOU to all for this contribution to an incomplete game.

Hopefully UBI will get it right with SH5.

Ok, so here's one for you.

So for the past several days I've been enjoying this mod with great effect. (haven't had a working computer in over one and a half years now, so I'm trying to play catchup with all the new stuff) Really enjoying areas of operation that I've never seen before, like the Black Sea.

I tried to find my specific problem in this thread, but it's 64 pages and I think I got to about 10 or 12 before I decided that I must be unique.

1. CTD when starting any campaign with a Type VIIC (normal). No option to pick the Type VIIC in the single missions, and it really only shows up in the campaign. My Submarine folder doesn't have the VIIC listed. I downloaded the mod a second time, thinking somehow some files were missed, but with the same result. Any suggestions? Or did I miss something where the VIIC just isn't avaliable? There is mention in the first page about the Type VIIC so I thought it was in.

2. Type II interior is missing. Originally, I thought maybe it was just left out because I don't expect miricles (though that torpedo room thread is making me rethink that), but the Type 23 has an interior similar to the Type II, so now I'm questioning that. If it isn't in there, that's fine (after all, it plays without it), I was just questioning my assumption what with the missing VII and all that.

You have a corrupted install.

Lurker, I tried OM for the first time today. Nice work!! Made my first attack...I think I'm the only uboat that was struck by a circle runner

Need to find that German voice pack now

[lurker_hlb3]

There is a new version of OM up. Go to the first post for download links and info

That was pretty much it. More a product of the zip program not doing it's job than anything else. It's all working now. Thanks.

And NOW there's a new one.
