In many sources, Free French describes any French individual or unit that fought against Axis forces after the June 1940 armistice...

Unable to recreate your problem.

Code review of all campaign files for the latest version of OM ( V705/710) and do not show any "Free French " merchant units being used in convoys in 1939.

Require the following info to proceed with trouble shooting your problem:

Current version of OM
Location of Convoy
Other mod that may be installed and in what order.

Hi, that my already sorry...

Look, I'm playing second (third?) patrol at 1940, and I have torpedoes icons on periscope view... It is very strange because (for me) it looks as mark for missed/dud torpedoes. But where is a problem:
At this patrol, I shot (and hit) only 3 torpedoes (on the screenshot is "torpedo impact" for 3rd torp. at currecnt patrol). Why these icons of missed/dud torpedoes from last patrols are shown on the periscope view?
That is correct?

Use MODs: TMO163 + OM711 + SPAX Sound fix

OM does not make any changes that is causing this issue

Hi Lurker,

U-1232 and the crew of Kapitän zur See Dobratz would like to thank you for your latest version of OP Monsun and the RUM of U-1232 and 806.

Excellent work!

Using:

TMO 170
German voices mod
OM V705

Real clothes mod

Everything working perfectly!

WOOHOO! Loaded 711, had a crash. Unloaded everything. Reloaded 705, then 711, then reinstalled all the little mods I had afterward. Works like a charm! And, best of all, my officers are no longer Kaleuns, but LzS.

Thanks Lurker!

Use your setup in mine, with a little difference
have you added the different smoke mod for TMO 1.70... TRY IT!!!

Great work, thanks for this wonderful mod.

I'm having issues with target not being visible when they're in clear view, few meters away in fact. There also seems to be an issue with locking your periscope onto a target. That pretty much makes the game unplayable.

Do you perhaps have a few hints on how to back out the NYGM sensor changes? Or have a version of your mod without the NYGM mod? I really would like to play the game with your mod but the sensor stuff just pretty much breaks it for me.

Is there a version of this NYGM sensor mod that does not break the game? If so where could I download a version of it?

Thanks in advance.


EDIT:

I'm using OM705, OM705_to_711

If I though that the current settings for visual detection by the Uboat made the system unplayable, I would have changed it a long time ago.

When ever possible attempt to engage the target from the North side.

[othr]

I said it's unplayable for me, it very well may be playable for many others.

Yes, I can engage the target from the north side. But that is not the only issue I'm having, disappearing lock because a wave washes over the periscope (every 2-3s), ships clearly visible and yet unable to lock onto them, destroyers engaging me when they are visible to me but the crew fails to report a visual contact. I can make the issue where I'm forced to attack from the north side go away by tweaking some of the files, I just don't know if I'm not breaking something else in the process. I'd like to enjoy your mod but still have the option of applying stuff like AI/submarine sensor mod when/if, well, they work properly. I'm not an expert modder but I can do some of the work if I can get you to give me some direction on what needs to be modified etc.

There is another issue I wanted to bring to your attention, IIB missions to patrol the Thames Estuary. The maximum depth in the area varies between 20-30m, aircraft is very common in the area and will bomb you when your keel pretty much touches the bottom, roughly every 10-15 minutes. Very, very dangerous patrols there.

Thanks in advance
