[REL] Operation Monsun - Page 93

Doolittle81 · 07-05-09, 01:41 PM

I've been away for a while, need to catch up. I have "OpsMonsun_V705" installed, plus "OMv705_Patch1".
Am I correct that I should first delete patch "OMv705_Patch1", then install "OMv705_to_V710" ??

OR
should I just install the "OMv705_to_V710" upgrade file(s) after/on top of Patch1 ??

Thanks

Hi Lurker,

I especially like your single player RUM in OPM, they are great because they are historically correct. Unfortunately, I don´t have the skill to write missions by my own, so I would like to propose two missions to You which might be interesting to add in a further version of OPM.
Both had been carried out by the end of 1944 in Canadian waters, close to Halifax. The first was by U-1232, Kapt. z. See Kurt Dobratz. He sank 5 ships during that patrol. The second was undertaken by U-806, Kptl. Klaus Hornbostel. He sank one warship and destroyed a merchant. If these missions sound interesting to you, I could provide you with all the necessary historical data.

All the best, Kurfürst

Here's a question I've had for a long time, but am just now getting around to asking: Do other mods do anything for Operation Monsun?

That is, if I just want to play Germans for a few weeks, is there any reason to have (say) RFB or RSRDC installed at all? Do those mods add anything to SH4 (such as improved damage models, detection, or other realism changes) that would not be present in an installation of OM over stock SH4?

Thanks for any answers.

RFB and TMO do make gameplay and realism enhancements. Look in their threads to see what exactly they change/add. RSRDC is just a US campaign so AFAIK it doesn't make any changes to the German side of the game (correct me if I'm wrong, lurker)

Thanks for the answer. I've studied those mods, and (from what I can tell) the changes and enhancements in those mods add a great deal to the game from the US side. On the other hand, I know that OM's creator is dedicated to realism, and that (for instance) OM already contains mods to ship damage and other "realism" factors.

So my question is, when it comes to *playing Germans only*, is there anything OM lacks that other mods provide? I want to know what I will miss if I load up OM only instead of (say) OM on top of RFB.

I used MultiSH4 and Created 2 Seperate installs for SH4, BEcause I'm using the german speech fix that takes an eternity to enable in jsgme.

Both installs use RFB and RSRDC.

I have a 500 GB External Drive, so its really no big deal

I will look into and see what I can do

If your going to play just the ATO side, then OM is all that is required.

Got the pdf files and will start working on them as time permits

705/710 now available in SHMF too

I found on support "OM v400 Uboat Damage Model readme.doc" some like it:

Quote:

When attacked on the surface, the players submarine will sink when damage beyond a certain point.

When submarine is sinking “blowing ballast” may not in some cases cause the submarine to surface.

When I tested it in multigame mode, my submarine does not sink when the player kills. That is correct?

Installed: TMO163 + OM705 + OM710

I have never played in "multigame" mode, nor have I ever designed OM or RSRDC with "multigame" mode in mind

100% REAL:
* 37 ships in convoy in November 1939... ok
* 50% of all hitting torpedos (80% of all hits to the target) are dud... ok
* American ships in this convoy... ok
but Free France???
In many sources, Free French describes any French individual or unit that fought against Axis forces after the June 1940 armistice...
