Thanks, Kaleun. I hope you like it. If you like the Atlantic campaign, you might also want to try out my Traveller mod for Operation Monsoon. Not quite as polished as for TMO, but still fun... and it's the Atlantic.

In my new Traveller Mod campaign, I was assigned to drop off some coast watchers near Shortland Island, northeast of Australia. While waiting on the surface for the mission to complete, 3 enemy subchasers come racing up out of nowhere to my exact position. There is a nearby enemy sea plane base, and it's long-range surface radar probably picked me up waiting on the surface. Or maybe enemy coast watchers saw me. I'm not really sure.

I think I've created a monster with these recent mod versions.

In my new campaign game, that group of subchasers that found me caused so much damage to my sub that I sank to the bottom and died. It was my first patrol.

I guess I should be more careful next time.

V2.06 hardcore patches have a few problems. Subchaser ships still show their ID (corrected now), the Rescue Sub hardcore versions don't work correctly, and a few of the recognition manual ship names I had to label are missing or mixed up. So there will have to be another version release of Traveller Mod for TMO in the future to correct these problems. But overall, I'm liking the new hardcore features. Makes gameplay more challenging and realistic in my opinion.

Been playing Traveller mod this week and really like the game play improvements, unfortunately as noticed above I really dislike the dull play in RSRD. I really don't like having to looking up history books and abandoning my assigned post to run off to historical battles just to find action. 8 hours play this week and one single enemy ship contact is no fun, so I am retiring from Traveller mod and gong back to TMO without.

That's too bad. But if you want more action, try the Operation Monsoon mod with Traveller Mod. It's the Atlantic campaign with U-boats, but it's also fun.

Version 2.1 will have landed and floating F1M, H6K, H8K, and PBY-4 seaplanes. All will have propellers and damage models. Plus they will be placed at most bases in campaign games. You will get good campaign renown for destroying the landed Japanese seaplanes.

Another new feature in v2.1 will be destroyable fuel storage tanks on land. I will be placing these around bases, plus I will also include a custom campaign mission where the captain and his crew will have to sneak in at night and shell an enemy fuel dump.

I hope it's good. Another new feature in v2.1 I forgot to mention will be campaign game weapons target practice ranges near Pearl and Midway. There will be a few target ships, some landed floatplanes, and maybe a couple land-based fuel storage tanks to practice on. And you'll even get a bit of renown for practicing.

Very nice!!!

I hope the new version will be in SUBSIM in the next days

I´m really desperate for play it!...

Best regards and congratulations for the great work!

Is it possible to use 19to 9 screen resolutions with this mod? I appolagise if this seems like a stupid question.

Are you talking about the resolution in the game graphic setting menu? If so, then no problem.

Traveller · 04-20-13, 07:03 AM

Version 2.1 about to be released. Doing final play testing.
