Oh well we are Icebound here today so I should be able to make a day of
it after all.

MM

Any excuse to get out of work, what about using the horse & sled?:lol:

Im Canadian I have a dogsled and a great team of very determined
chihuahua's

Mush esteban mush

where do you think I got the name from
the famous american sub captain or something.

MM:rotfl:

mush i just installed the uberboot mod (didn work)
then i tried to make a career with a type VII/C
with the 7th/13th flotilla
but it will only let me take the IXB.....before i could choose the VIIC but not now
can you please help me ?:huh:

are you trying to go back to your regular career because if so your supposed
to deactivate Uberboot first.
Oh wait i see you mean that the IXB wasnt available in 7th flotilla.

Yes I just found out this morning that the one in the 1.2 7z didnt have the flotilla cfg put into the mod so I am working to correct this.

did you try the mission "Surface Combat" it may or may not
work Im getting mixed results so I am working a correction
for the included mission as well as the missing uber from 7th
flotilla.

I am working to get the correction out quickly.
sorry for the inconveniance.

shouldnt be to long.

MM

i mean uninstalled:doh:
but now i cant have a type VII anymore in the 7th/13th and i REALLY want it back
the flotilla CFG didn "rewind" to original when i uninstalled:-?

weird that shouldnt be even as is

what are you running GWX1.02 Ill send it if thats right.
MM

Can you go into flotilla cfg scroll down to 7th flotilla and paste me a
copy here of say the first page and a bit.?

doesnt matter anymore
doing a complete reinstall of SH3 :)

whoa dude sorry ( sure am glad I put that disclaimer in readme)
but dood it shouldnt do that if there was no change to flotilla
cfg as it wasnt in the mod I cant explain what happened

either way I am going off to rush Uberboot Beta 1.3 into service
to correct the obvious and known issues.

also have a boat I need to put through sea trials for a freind so
ill be off a couple of hours likely but ill be in and out all
day.
MM

Uberboot 1.3, allllright!!!!!!!!!:D

soon eddie soon

(isnt that were we started out)

No Martin, we started out with Uberboot 1.1a!!!!:rock:

well I got the mission fixed I think ?
 

ok so I took out the random generated mtbs and put in a set of scripted
ones. I geared down the second air contact and did my best to confirm
that all craft are stock.

(maybe Im wrong about tse tse somebody let me know I think
I may still need to change it.)

so I pull up the game to test. and so far today testing hasnt been
going well so im not real optimistic.

and heres what happens.
I set my crew up and launch two Ubertorps aft at the pursuing black swans
I take off set course and go to flank ahead.
a few short minutes later the first air contact comes over the aft horizon
and I start to manuever the boat while the gun crews take on the six plane
formation. all the while im taking pix with my Leica.

So I clear the first air contact but three of them survived and as they
were starting to come back around

apparently torpedo # 2 caught a wiff of me when I took off this time.
I got hit by an uber torp loaded to about 50 terrawatts
I have launched two frigates into orbit with this torp.
and have considered sinking greenland with it.

here are the results of uberboot self flagelence.
I took a huge hit but little effective damage although due to
a failure on my part at damage control I nearly did get flooded
under.
Now Im not kidding I have sent two FF's to orbit strangley I was
only displaced about a few boat lengths and at no speed at all
for those who have used ubertorp this is amazing. have a look.

driven under by the torpedo hit and the gaping hole.

Wow no injuries a compartment showing red and but systems still functional
and flooding controllable though I almost blew that.
wait it gets better.

So then
 

I move on as by some miracle of neptunes I have survived a direct
hit from the sister ship of an Imperial Stardestroyer I shot down last week.

and the test went fine 'cept for a little heaviness in the back end
(dont let bernard man the Pumps mates )

Any way I made it through one and a half surface contacts
and four air contacts actually three as one ended up as
a double with mossies from behind and beaufighters from ahead.
seconds after the last pic i was killed in a rocket attack.

but the mission appears to be working fine and
I just need to maybe swap out the Tse Tse's for compatability

1.3 getting closer.
