Help with new TMO and RSRD

[Longstreet]

Hi Folks,

Okay -- I am confused. :o I currently have TM 1.76 and RSRD 3.20 and version 4 of the Natural Sinking Mod. I see this new TMO, which is huge -- around 220 meg -- and there is a new RSRD that is now compatible with this. So...my question is...do I disable my current RSRD,TM 1.76, and NS mods and then install the new TMO and RSRD? What about the Natural Sinking mod version 4?

Thanks! :D

YEP :yep: About the natural sinking mod???

I'd find out from mod makers.

I installed TMO and RSRD last nite and so far no probs.

I wasn't much help sorry.

Thanks,

Yep...disable the lot (older TMaru, NSM4, RSRDC), install TMO, then RSRDC for TMO, then NSM4. Though NSM4 is not 100% compatible with TMaru, you can use them in this order.

Great - -thanks for your help! It is most appreciated. One question, though...what about NSM4 is not compatible with TMO?

Best,

Some files are overwritten. Nothing that will cause a CTD or bad side-effects. General concensus is, it's safe to let NSM4 to overwrite (I don't use TMaru myself, so I can't say from personal experience).

I use TM with NSM4 and no problems.

If I understant correctly, both TMO and RFB keep hit points for ships? I thought TM incorporates /some/ version of NSM.

I was looking at the torpedo files and I noticed that NSM keeps the magnetic pistols = TRUE for the torpedoes throughout the whole war whereas the other two mods tend to make it =FALSE after June 1943 (or is it '44?). I think I prefer this.

Also, if a torpedo is assigned a FALSE value for magnetic pistol, can you still switch the switch in the game? I assume the switch actually has an effect normally. Comments? Suggestions? The only thing I can think of is to tweak the NSM value that concerns me (The rest of it, of course, is top of the line).
