Avoid Truk
Several years ago, I posted a thread:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ght=avoid+truk I have always held to this, however, I just received a Balao sub. 3rd mission out of Midway. Told to report to an area outside Truk and await further orders. On the way, received a message from ComSubPac, American bomber attack Rabal forcing six Japanese Aircraft Carriers to retreat to Truk for repairs. Get to my area, and I'm informed I am at liberty to patrol and sink any shipping I find. Great! I'm near truk, less than a day. I cruise over there. BAM! I'm hit with the same "bug" again. I cannot tc greater then 32 or the game simply lags severely. Has there been a "patch" or "fix" for this problem yet? TMO 2.0 |

Have you tried TMO 2.5? I haven't had any issues with Truk in that mod.

If I am recalling correctly, "everything at Truk" included a few dozen destroyers. The game craps out dealing with that many ships, resulting in the effect noted. Ducimus posted a patch for it, but the link is dead. It did get fixed in later TMO versions.

Have you ever seen a ship in port load inside the dock? You sneak into port and find a ship on fire? Imagine that many times over, how many collisions the game must process. Edit: Quote:

I looked, radar going, from first glance, there are around 20 ships. Also some 8 various freighters scattered about.

But here's another problem. When it starts lagging, even if you retreat from Truk, the "lag" stays with you. If you tc greater than 32, it becomes "jerky". At least that is my experience. |

Yeah, I remember that. I'm wondering if a save and load might fix that. Of course, I'd expect that it would result in a broken save file.

I have a graphics card that is over 6 years old. I have played TMO 2.5 with RSRD and gone into Truk. With all the merchants, DD's and other capital ships and roaming patrols inside and outside the lagoon I have yet to see any issue with or crashes.
I do recall once when there was a massive build up of ships inside th lagoon ... must have been 5 convoys and all sorts of capital ships. I created a clean install, clean mods list and never saw the issue again. Most people who have issues like these stem from switching out mods and never properly bring you back to a clean game while populating your newer mod list. I always repopulate the mods after I have done a clean install ... 90% that I have seen in the forums can be rectified by a clean install. CLEAN INSTALL Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157 OpsMonsun_V705 OMv705_to_V720 OMv720_Patch5 Traveller Mod v1.7 for OM 7.20 Nav Map Make-Over for OM Kriegsmarine Chart Colour Scheme 2 Aircraft_reflections Webster's Eliminate Floating Plankton for v1.4 and v1.5 Webster's Missing Voices for v1.4 & v1.5 Webster's Ship Manuvering Fix for v1.4 and v1.5 GE01 Operation Tiger Alternate OM Loading Screen plants small rocks small

Now that you mention it, when I came in to Surabaya, I saw an USN cruiser on fire, with it's bow sticking up at a 30 degree angle, close to shore. I was wondering about that. |
