Hi, loaded up RFB for my first outing with SH4 and liked what I saw in the manual. One CTD so far but nothing major. Running a steam version patched to 1.5 with RFB 2.0 and the patch. One question, when I get a contact update there's no directional heading, the space for it is just blank. Now don't get me wrong, I agree that the satellite map of vanilla is not realistic in any way shape or form. What I was expecting was something like GWX where it gives you a rough direction of travel with up to a 22 degree margin of error so the longer the intercept the larger the cone of uncertainty. Is this an installation glitch or an actual design decision?

A contact update that doesn't tell if the contact is heading N, S, E, W is not particularly useful and if this is a design decision I think it may go a bit too far in the other direction unless there are multiple types of contact reports to simulate sightings by other USN assets vs intercepted position reports which would not include speed and heading.

That is intended.

I believe some contact reports you get by radio, and will have course/speed info. However, you should know that such info is subject to 'fog of war'.

Is it possible you already have it installed?

Nope, I confirm I had it installed in fremantle never in manila or surabaya!
All other upgrades are missing!

Just wanted to say a big thanks for this mod

moha14881 · 03-12-15, 06:40 AM

The dates of upgrade packs are so messed up and there's no mid war conning tower for the sargo class even after manually changing the dates in the upcdata directory.

Potato42 · 03-12-15, 05:45 PM

I was perusing the zone file with RFB installed (no other mods) and noticed this in the zone list:

"34=TorpidoTubes"

Don't know if the misspelling is affecting anything or maybe that came with the stock game and we're stuck with it, but thought I'd report it.

Potato42!

on your first three posts!

this has probably been asked before but google didnt yield any results; how can i pull up the chronometer? i cant find it in any of the stations now which is how i used to access it, and used it for various calculations. couldnt find the hotkey with f1 either. can someone enlighten me?

also the mod is superb in all other regards so far thank you for all your hard work.

There are two ways to bring up the Chronometer. Either use the X key or raise time compression above 2048x.

YonMaruIchi · 03-13-15, 05:44 PM

wonderful thank you!! time compression and launching a torpedo both came to mind but neither of those are very practical when youre in the middle of setting up a convoy attack

thanks for the welcome

Hey everyone,

Haven't been playing SH all that much lately, but I booted up SH4 and RFB on a whim and it's been solid. Thanks so much for this great mod !
