The 1.4-compatible release is coming soon, guys. As the post above shows, we've added a lot of stuff into this version, and we want to make sure it's all working correctly. From looking at the 1.5 file changes, I don't think it will be too long before we have a 1.5 version out, either.

Are you guys still using the numbers (or philosofy if there are new periscope images) that i came up with back in old days...

or will i have to make a new mod to work with the new RFB ?

Not sure what you mean here. The images themselves are the textures from before with color changes to the crosshairs and the attack scope lens has been darkened a little with each test release. Trying to get a noticeable night time difference between it and the observation scope.

This is great news!:yep: I am eagerly awaiting the 1.5 compatable version. I haven't even installed the addon yet in anticapation of this. Great job:up:

Yep, they are rolling in all sorts of changes and testing. I think you all will be pleasantly surprised!

Since Ducimus is not going to upgrade TM to work with the German career, I'll probably switch over to RFB. This originally caught my eye back in the fall and I've been itching to add more realism to the game.

Wow. That is an impressive list. Everything I see from the teases to the list of changes indicates that this release will be one impressive piece of work.
Thanks for all your hard work.:up::up::up::up::up:

I'm really, really looking forward to the overhauled damage modelling for your own submarine and the crew fixes. I've playing months with TM and was very satisified, but lately have realized that the boat and crew is more or less invulnerable. My crew members never suffer more than five percent health loss, and damage is always repairable. I don't think this is a TM thing, it's probably stock behavior, but frankly, I've had enough of it. I want more of a pucker factor when the ashcans start raining down!

Me too. RFB is my favourite mod.:up:

How does one make certain equipment impossible to repair mid-patrol? Can you hack the ActivePlayerUnits.upc in the appropriate savegames folder?

I want to keep going with my current career until the new RFB comes out.

Bump

Boy, I know this is going to sound ungrateful, but have you any idea when the 1.5 version is going to be released? I've got the addon collecting dust on my hard drive, and I'm torn (really, writhing in inner turmoil) between starting a 1.4 career with the latrest RFB and waiting for 1.5, because I assume my 1.4 career will be incompatible with 1.5. I'm dying in install the addon, though I couldn't tell you why, as I haven't any interest in Monsun boats. Maybe just because it's there.

Feel free to heap abuse upon me for my impertinence, but I just have to ask. Needless to say, you all rock for your efforts anyway.:rock:

Let me see. You are such a good fan of the mod that you hold off installing the add-on waiting for the 1.5 version . . . and you think we'd be upset about you asking when the 1.5 RFB will be released?:hmm:

Heck, if anything we should be grateful to you for being sooo patient.:yep:

As for when it will be out. It's being worked on right now. I'll post a progress update in a couple of days.

Did the darker attack scope vs lighter obs scope not make it in? Tested coming out of port in the dark I kept switching back and forth between the 2 scopes and couldn't pick up a difference.
