[Rel] "Fall of the rising Sun!"

[CaptainNemo]

Finally we are proud to present the english version of "Fall of the rising sun!" FOTRS is a super mod like Trigger Maru and was developed for Silent Hunter 4 version 1.4!



http://www.aotd-flottille.de/Bilder/newsgfx.jpg


First of all we would like to mention that TMO (Trigger Maru Overhauled by Ducimus on www.subsim.com (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/../)) was the base and inspiration of this modpack. Special thanks to Ducimus and all other modders for their work ! In addition we would like to note, that “Fall of the rising sun” is just a modpack and not a mod for itself. That means, that “FOTRS” is a bundle of many already existing modifications. The copyright of each modification belongs to its developer. We just have modified and supplemented these modifications with our ideas.

In the past there have been missunderstandings because some thought that we wanted to make profit with the work of others. But the missunderstandings could be cleared upiron out.

Every important information about FOTRS can be found in the readme!

The modpack has to be activated with JSGME (Generic Mod Enabler).

You can download the english version of FOTRS here. (http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Release/FalloftherisingsunV1.1SH4V1.4EN.rar)

You can download the readme here. (http://www.aotd-flottille.de/temp/FOTRS_README.rtf)

Enjoy!

buuhhhh.. how will I get a sh4 v1.4 install here... might have to get a new machine... all my TMO+RSRD, Op Monsun and RFB run over sh4 v1.5

did you include a discount cupon in the download for a new machine ... :)

[skwasjer]

It would be helpfull if you can post the readme as well. It allows everyone (incl. non-broadband users) to read about the details of the mod.

Nice work :up:

[simsurfer]

I wouldnt mind trying it but like everyone else Im using 1.5, what are the issues with it using 1.5??

[kiwi_2005]

Your get a crash to desktop. I reinstalled SH4 updated to patch 1.4 and tried out the spanish version FoTRS. Very nice mod enjoyed it very much but for me to load up a uboat now and then i had no choice but to install the 1.5 uboat missions addon which killed the mod. Other wise i would still be playing this mod as its fantastic!. :rock: Just now and then i get the urge to run the IXD2.

[FIREWALL]

Thx :up:

Funny thing is I just removed 1.5 and reinstalled 1.4 .:D

[simsurfer]

Thats to bad :o( Guess I will wait for RFB, thats being updated soon. That sux, I was waiting for this to :o(

[The General]

@Simsurfer

You'll be missing out, FOTRS is very, very good and RFB 1.6 ain't ready for atleast 2 weeks.

[CaptainNemo]

Thx for your compliments! We decided to develop FOTRS on version 1.4 because there have been to many complications with 1.5. Specially we had a lot of problems with the multiplayer part, which we focus on.

You can download the readme here. (http://www.aotd-flottille.de/temp/FOTRS_README.rtf)

[AOTD_MadMax]

Hi Captains,

everybody can use FOTRS if you got two installations of SH4 !

Its easy to make a second installation.
Here ist the explanation .

1.) Remove your actual SH4 UBM version.
2.) Make a new SH4 installation
3.) Patch this new one with 1.4
4.) Copy this patched SH4 Folder to an other partition of your Harddisk
5.) Install UBM to the original Installation
6.) Make a shortcut from the SH4-exe of the copied 1.4 Version on your desk

Now you can play bothe versions, SH4 V1.4 and SH4 V1.5 but make shure that you will load the right savegames for each Version.

Since FOTRS is based off TMO, those names are the various zones of the ocean. I'm not exactly sure what the names are for, but I like them. That file path in the dialog box is the location where your screenshots are placed. It is quite common for that to be there, although sometimes it may not appear.

One last question.

I d\l the English version but, when I look at a ship thru peri the name type in in a foreign language.

Everything else is in English so far.

[cgjimeneza]

hi.

I know how to use multish4 pretty well as I have 4 differnet installs going TMO+RSRD, RFB, Op Monsun and a stock one. yet but I must uninstall UBM from one of those installs in order to be able to play FOTRS.

or put another way: How do I make a clean install of SH4 without first removing my games.... if I insert the SH4 DVD disk it tells me the game is already patched to 1.5 and wont allow a new clear install.

help!!!!!!!!!!!

:damn: :damn: :damn: :damn: :damn:

[kwbgjh2]

cgjimeneza, sorry to say that you have no chance to install the mod without reinstalling SH4. :cry::cry:

This is the negative point of the operation, the positive point is deinstalling your stock version of SH4 has no implications on your modded installations.

Deinstall Stock 1.5, install 1.0 and update to 1.4. Make a copy of clean 1.4 to your modfolder (if you like keep this clean 1.4 and take a second copy for the FOTRS Mod) and when ready update the stock game to 1.5. :know:

If you do this you go exactly the way i did 2 month ago. There is only a stock installation in my C:\Programs\... All my Mod copies are in my C:\Games folder. And after having watched a hard working HD you will be like me the proud owner of 45 GIGABYTE Silent Hunter 4 in 2 clean installs and 7 Mod folders each round about of 5 GB. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Thanx for the compliments.

An small Bugfix with english named ships and some more english parts will follow soon.
This Bugfix also contents more harbourtraffic in the US-Navalbases.
Sorry that i have forget to translate some things.

[cgjimeneza]

well, I did it...

I uninstalled sh4 from the pc (that is, I removed via uninstall), erased the sh4 folder in the my documents, checked to see all removed in the registry (but I didnt touch the other copies I had stashed all over the hard disks)

rebooted, installed sh4, new reboot, made a run of the program and then I found I didnt have patch 1.4... downloaded that. installed it. once more reboot, now I made two copies of the sh4 ver1.4 folder..... ran multish4 and jgsme on them and installded FOTRS on one of them, keep the other as a clean v1.4 install.

made a quick run over pearl, looks nice.

tonight i will put UBM back in the main program files.

one other thing... all the installs copied of op mosun, tmo+rsrd etc are fully functional.... thank God.

will give FOTRS another try.. for first mission Im going to ::::::::::: and :::::::::: in ::::::::::: soory, why ruin the surprise.:yep:

[donut]

Even with surface radar off,I'm still getting radar contacts.A patrol vessel not yet in visual range appears as radar contact. Then game must close (error) Can't get within Penang visual range ? This is agent insertion mission Penang CTD. Any thoughts:huh:

Off topic Note: I could wish NAV MAP coloring could be stand alone mod:up:

AOTD_MadMax,when you get the time investagate please.:hmm: Thought;I am getting .tga shape not found due to deleting the .dds dot files in sea/ship file.So I'm thinking,if I could ID.ship I could import correct files. Range to contact 10 NM,clear as a bell weather,no visual. I AM AWARE,there are 3 merchants,& another patrol vessel in harbor.But no radar contact when must close:damn:

One hell of a lot of hard work has gone into this, and i thank the modders.:up: .Now for the weak points I.M.H.O... No crew rank for anybody below chief, minus key will not stop the engines,compass is way to big it blocks off part of the torpedo panel,no sound of the torpedo doors opening, no tails. Sub marker does not show up in game play even after being deleted, and continous and dashed lines appear with them being deleted..:nope: Irritating little S.O.B. aren't i?? Any ideas on how to fix all of the above??

FORS.is based on TMO.,So reversing Procedures,will work similarly,as outlined in Duci's read-me. I have found that the Sea folder,is difficult to remove .dds_dot files,because .tga files,are missing for new ships installed in Sea folder.The mod CTD.because these files aren't found. AOTD Madmax,is tied-up,but promised to get back to work in weeks to come,so hopefully:rock:

I'm experiencing very slow speeds for downloading the mod. Any chance of increasing the download bandwidth?

I installed FRS. I run a BFG 8800GTX w/768 Video RAM and for the life of me I could not keep the game running even after I tried ALL nvidea drivers right up to the MOST current 178!!!!!!!!!!!!

Then I went back and installed nhancer and set it up according to the notes in that other thread about nvidea problems:

[AOTD_MadMax]

Hi Captains,

i will tell you something about the newest update for FOTRS comming up in December.

First we debuged some things in the campaign.
The English-Version is now fully English, no more german shipnames and so on. :damn:
Some new Units ( Ships and Planes ) are integrated to the scene.

Another brand new thing is the new planeflight-management.
With an small tricky thing iam able to let the fighters attack you in a high speed low level flight about 10 Meters obove waterline.
How does it work ?

Remember, the torpedobombers came along in an low level flight for bringing their torpedo to the target.
The torpedoloadout is the thing which let them fly so deep.
If you give an fighter an torpedo, he will also fly deep above the waterline. Same to all other planes.

So ive made some invisible Airtorpedos with no sound, no explosion and no splasheffect, they couldnt harm you but this torpedodummys are the reason why fighters can attack your boat in an low level flight.
Adding more Bombnodes to the fighters and loading the fighter with those dummys bring the effect.:know:

This kind of attack is much more harmfull for any kind of ship cause they got more hits with their guns on the target. :rotfl:
Shooting this deep flying fighter with your flak is nearly impossible. :huh:
You can choose the kind of attacking of an fighter by the loadout.
If you choose "Elite" Loadout, they got this dummys and attack you in a low level flight.

Here are the new Units :

Planes :

G4M Betty as an Torpedobomber with 30mm Gun in the Nose :

http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/GM4BettyTorp.jpg

You can see the new japanese Airtorpedo.

The Betty attacks you in a low level flight while the first attack is with the real torpedo.
All other attacks will come with the dummy´s.
They are deadly.

An other new unit is the Nakajima Ki 88 Hayate, coming to the scene in 1944 !

http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/Ki842.jpg

Here you can see her attacking you in a low level flight !

http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder2/Tiefflugangriff.jpg

Here some new ships :

1.) US Supplyship based on an Victory

2.) JP Supplyship /Miner

http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Bilder/JPV1.jpg

3.) Heavy armed japanese Fleettanker

Once the remaining German verbiage gets converted to English, it will be almost perfect. Is this update still on target for Dec 20th?

As this is one of the top mods going for SH4, it should be pinned to the top of the page withe the other all encompassing mods.

Dear Maddy,

Was wondering if this file still is in use, I am try to use the SH4 Keyboard Configurator to allocate command to specific keys to be used on the G15 Gaming Keyboard. Hope you can help. Did a quick search in the Data sub dir but found nothing.

By the way, did a fresh install of SH4 and applied the Fall of The Rising Sun Mod, worked perfectly so far. Hoping to capture some excellent video through FRAPS and have them linked so other can see what FOTRS is all about. Many Thanks:up:

Hello Captains,

now its time to release the Upgrade V1.11 for the english FOTRS-Version V1.1 !



I like it !!!
Thank AOTD very much!

[Malakie]

Finally we are proud to present the english version of "Fall of the rising sun!" FOTRS is a super mod like Trigger Maru and was developed for Silent Hunter 4 version 1.4!



http://www.aotd-flottille.de/Bilder/newsgfx.jpg


First of all we would like to mention that TMO (Trigger Maru Overhauled by Ducimus on www.subsim.com (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/../)) was the base and inspiration of this modpack. Special thanks to Ducimus and all other modders for their work ! In addition we would like to note, that “Fall of the rising sun” is just a modpack and not a mod for itself. That means, that “FOTRS” is a bundle of many already existing modifications. The copyright of each modification belongs to its developer. We just have modified and supplemented these modifications with our ideas.

In the past there have been missunderstandings because some thought that we wanted to make profit with the work of others. But the missunderstandings could be cleared upiron out.

Every important information about FOTRS can be found in the readme!

The modpack has to be activated with JSGME (Generic Mod Enabler).

You can download the english version of FOTRS here. (http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Release/FalloftherisingsunV1.1SH4V1.4EN.rar)

You can download the readme here. (http://www.aotd-flottille.de/temp/FOTRS_README.rtf)

Enjoy!



Read me link not working for me.... and I am one of those on a very limited internet connection... 28.8k and only 5 gig a month...... Who would have thought 20 minutes outside Chicago and and no TV, internet etc and only cell phone access to anything..

Cannot wait to get back to Wisconsin.. Down here to help one of my daughters for a few months... I want to go home!! LOL

Downloaded the one in the OP, and everything looks awesome, except the occassional german text. I know that the full english version is due sometimes this month, but when exactly?

Kind of breaks the immersion for me to see mixed texts all over the place.

DO a seperate 1.4 install for FOTRS,unless you must have U-boots

[Javelin]

Downloaded both files, only read me I see tells about the different parts of the mod, but not how to install it.
I installed it, (stand alone) using JSGME, and I guess its working. However, certain F keys do not function. As a example F6 does not bring to you the attack map. I wonder if any other parts of the mod are not there. As of yet I've had no problems, such as crashes etc. From what I can see, this mod makes SH4 even more enjoyable to play.

[Rowddy]

sorry for the late reply, but i cannot make a seperate install due to a nearly Full HD :oops:
so it's something to read about for me only unfortunally.

Did that, There is a read me file but it doesn't mention anything about installing the mod. I'm using it but want to know if its installed correctly. I have several questions that I would hope I could find in a install read me file.

[Flybywire]

I have a question. How do you do a seperate install of SH4? I am asking becasue it was suggested in this foru, that it is possible to do that becasue my current SH4 is the 1.5 version and therefore not compatable with FOTRS. So I thought I would try the additional install...well when I try to install from the original exe installer of the game...I get a prompt that says that I am attempting to install a previous version and therefore the install will shutdown. My question is how do you get qround that and how would you set up your instaltion folders for the additional install?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

[donut]

#1 SH4 1.4, =s SH4 patched to 1.4. Seperate folder in Programs files /UBI
#2 You will need to use Multi SH4,to have seperate documents folder for each install. I call one SH4-FOTRS,the other SH4-1.5
#3 Install JSGME,run it,now you will notice a mod folder. place unziped mod into mod folder,open JSGME icon activate mod, & your hot to go !

You are very kind to answer my question...but I don't understand the procedure. I have version 1.5 right now and would like to have an addition version to 1.4 with FOTRS.

When I try to execute the original exe to install the game a prompt tells me that it is not possible to continue to install becasue I am installing a version that is lower than version 1.5. How to I accomplish a duel instalation?

[donut]

Install from game disc to folder SH4-FOTRS,YOU created & renamed in Programs files/Ubi,when asked where to install. Patch to 1.4,use Multi SH4 to set up seperate my documents folder,also call it SH4-FOTARS. Download Mod install Jsgme step#3.Thats the best I can explain mate. Wrap your head around it you can do.:rock: Can someone better explain ?

Thanks again for the reply. I placed a folder named in c/program files/ubi/SH4-FOTARS and tryed the install exe. I purchased SH4 by downloading it from the net and also purchased the 1.5 version as a download product. When I execute the original exe which would install version 1.00.0000 I get an error message from the install wizard. It says----

The setup has detected that version 1.5 is already installed. This setup installs an earlier version of Sh4. You will have to uninstall the previous version before installing this version.


I can't get beyond this.

I purchased SH4 by downloading it from the net . Get Ebay disc.

Enjoy your mod very much. I think it's one of the best. However, the TBT does not track a full 360. I was told that this is because it's not possible to swing it to the 180 position. But, I see that there was a TBT mounted on the stern of the the bridge, allowing the captain to view targets astern of the sub. Photos of this can be seen at US Navy ships. Also, in the movie, Run Silent Run Deep, they use the stern mounted TBT to track a Jap target. Hope this helps in any future add on' s to your mod. I think the periscope view is to large. Thanks for this mod.

[donut]

So how,& where can I configure raise/lower interface,compass,telegraph,depth ?
File/cmd location ?? For key change.

[otto69]

I just removed SH4 1.5 and reloaded FS4 with this mod. It is very nice, however, as I am not versed in German, some of the items are still using that language. Perhaps a list of the items that are in German could have an English translation.
are you planning to add some other mods? although it looks very good and runs well. I started at the very beginning and the first mission was to go to Japan and drop off some people. I din't like the same mission in v1.5 and was suprised that this one was very good.
Also, how can I get my Umark back?

Otto

[donut]

find umark.dds,Actually I think it is in the data\misc folder,of stock game.disable mod,and add to mod in correct folder.German could have an English translation.
Try patch:http://www.aotd-flottille.de/FOTRS/Release/FOTRS_Patch_V1.11EN.rar

[xrayer123]

Hi i just tryed to download the file, its like dead or osmething, it said i downloaded it in 5 mins only 9mbs downloaded ;( and then i downloaded it and it wont open. its a plain white file, no install link thing, its like a old/outdated file cant open/use. can someone help please:)? thanks, I cant play sh4 because everyone uses this mod :/:damn:

[xrayer123]

maybe i cant install because i need JSGME Generic Mod Enabler where could i get this??

[Digital_Trucker]

Try downloading it again, xrayer123, I just finished downloading the english version myself and had no problem at all. It should be over 600 megabytes. And yes, JSGME would be the best way to install it. It's a .rar file, so you'll have to extract it with WinRAR or 7zip.

[xrayer123]

thank you for info, I am downloading it again and its very slow like it should be, not 5min download 9mb lol. 6 hours to go and 80+ mb downloaded :)

[xrayer123]

ugg it stopped after 1 hour only got 90mb downloaded: ( retry

[xrayer123]

again! 130mb download then it stopped :(((( cant someone helP?

[xrayer123]

can someone please help why cant i download this????!!! this is my 8th or so time now! I can only download up to 140mb so far and then it stops -.- I have high speed internet nothing to do with that. I have downloaded bigger files than this before. Is there another link for it???

[LtAirForce]

I'm not sure what help I can be....only thing I can think of is that if you are using your computer while d/l the file, i.e. games or internet, maybe it gets stopped by something. I downloaded it today fine.

Though, I do have a question of my own. I wanted to try FotRS, so I removed the mods that i had been using (Namely TMO for v1.4, NSM4, PE4, RSRDC). I have it installed now along with PE4 and NSM4. It seems to me that the graphics changes have gone back to Stock v1.4 in regards to the menu bar/overall feel. I thought that because the mod was built off of TMO, it might have this change. If not, it is not a big concern. However, what makes me think that I did something wrong is that I cant seem to find any of the new ships or planes in the ship browser (The Museum). Seeing as how most of the screenshots are from this element, I think i may have done something wrong. Here is my install order:
Fall Of The Rising Sun
#1 PE4 Main Install
#3 PE4 TM Submarine Stock Caustics Roll
#4 PE4 Ship debris with bodies
#5 PE4 Real reflections for harbour
NSM4 Classic
#2b PE4 Special Effects Zones for NSM4 Classic
SS176 Foobor's PORPOISE Black HiRes v1.0


I am running SHIV v1.4. I'll do some tests, its most likely something stupid that I did (happens all to much:nope: ).


Thanks,

My pc is very nuby! I just downloaded it on another pc AND IT WORKED!!!!! :))) somereason my pc cant download it :( lol but anyways thanks for info.

[xrayer123]

ignore post if you read it, I installed the mod! IT WORKS GREAT THANKS!!! AWESOME HOW CONTROLL ROOM GOES DARK WHEN YOU GET DAMAGE :) THANKS

[LtAirForce]

You will need to download JSGME first to install. I'm not sure where its at, but there is a link on the website here... JSGME's website has a tutorial, if i rember right, on how to implement it into your game.

Hi Mate,

i dont know all the contents of your mods you also have activated.
Try FOTRS without any other mod cause many things of your other mods are parts of FOTRS.

Dont forget the english patch for FOTRS !

It is a great mod , however, the damage taked by a boat seems to high. Example, fired torp at DD ,missed ,crash dived to 200 ft. Two DPs sunk me in minutes. This is not close to real. Any suggestions. Sub is a Gato.

Otto

[donut]

Crash dive to 450' if no hull damage yet. Deploy decoys on way down,under thermal full Rt. rudder @ 1/3, @ 400' rudder O,full for 2 min. then Lt.rudder,coast @ 1Kt,run silent to 450' This is late 1943 to wars end.:lol:

Hi,

we from the german AOTD-Community are now testing the german version of the upgrade.

If there are no big problems i will release the english upgrade soon as possible.
In my opinion i could do this until march.

Hope thats fast enough........

Greets

Maddy

[rubenandthejets]

Sounds great! March would be wonderful.:up:

Ok, now the downside.....:oops:

I have the English version 1.1 and the boat skins were fine. I put in the patch and got some conflict warnings in JSGME. I decided to try it anyway and some of the ships have strang skins-the US tugs (schleppers) are all black except the spotlights, some of the US battleships showed black except for turrets and radar, and one of the US tankers was white. I checked the library and they showed up strange as well as some other ships-the Deutch Unterzeeboots were invisible! Also no numbers on the dials of my sub's control room but everything was in English.

Took out the patch, got the ship skins and dials back, but lots of German again. I'm staying with the German version at the moment. Has anyone else mentioned this?

PS This is my first mod installation ever and it's only two I'm trying to run. Any advice?

[clayp]

AM I understanding this thread correctly and this mod cannot be run with any other mods?

Hi,

the problem with the white and black untextured ships is easy to fix.
Go to your graphic-settings of SH4 and deactivate " normal maps on ships" and save this settings.
Then all ships should be textured.

[gimpy117]

is there a 1.5 version in the works??

[joey6997]

Hey great mod! I was having a little trouble though. The ships water spray textures are causing me some frame rate drop. I go from 15-20 frames to 9 frames whenever I look at the ships water spray. So i was wondering if maybe it were possible to switch from the new water spray textures with the previous ones? thanks
:salute:

[AOTD_MadMax]

is there a 1.5 version in the works??

Hi,

in the moment i got not enough time to make a 1.5 Version real but i got it on my plan.
Perhaps in the summer.

Here is an new plane for the upcomming Upgrade.

The SBD-3 Dauntless replaces the original US-Divebomber from the Stock version.

M this looks wondeful i am going to be trying this soon. I wanted to ask you ..have you mods for your water? the ocean in your pics looks fantastic, really good...is that from FOTRS? or from other mods? thanks for all that hard work, i know the history of this time very well and all the ships and planes are very very accurate. :)

[AOTD_MadMax]

Hi Admiral,

you are german ? Iam too !

So now i will give the answer.
The Water is from W-Clear´s Environment 5.0 with small reworks.
In my eyes W-Clear´s Env. 5.0 looks much more better in SH4 V1.4 as in the UBM-Version 1.5 !
Thats why FOTRS-Water seems to be an own creation but this Water is 99% W_clear´s work.
I only reworked the wave amplitude !

Greets

Maddy

[rubenandthejets]

Thanks for your answer!:yeah:

I'll get on to that tonight-I switched to TMO for a while but, just between me and you, I really love the roster of ships and planes that all of you guys that are working on FOTRS have made-absolutely beautiful models! :up:

Looking forward to the new models!

PS Saw the Dauntless-DROOOOOOL! Keep all this goodness coming!

[Admiral Von Gerlach]

Maddy, Greetings!

Deutsch und österreichischen Familie, sondern leben in den USA. Vielen Dank für die schöne Arbeit.

It is a wonderful mod and i am now visiting the additional great work on the Aces of the Deep site too. My goodness.

The water looks wonderful. And as i said, i know this era so very well and have fought many campaigns with these ships and all look, well, perfect.

Vielen Dank for all.

At first I was thrilled to see that "SBD," then I looked at it. What is it, exactly, cause it's not an SBD with the way the wing is attached?

I notice you moved the wing down in the 2d set of shots. The wing needs to be completely flush with the bottom of the fuselage.

Does the link to the "Read Me" at the top of this post work? I get a misdirected link notice when it is clicked. :hmmm:

[Admiral Von Gerlach]

I think there was a post from Maddy saying the read me is in the download file.

I noticed the TBT is held to 180 degrees FOV. Is there a key to transfer to the stern TBT station, or a way to unlock the forward station?
