Yes, but my Mac switches to the Nvidia graphics when the game starts.
What are ya thinking of re Intel graphics? And, would it effect just one ship?

What is consistent is the Etoforu is smaller than the other ships in the destroyer escort class in my Museum and Sea folder, as propbeanie noticed.
But, when run under Bootcamp's Win 7 all is good FYI, I installed Sh4 from my DVD in the Bootcamp system, but copied the installed folders over to the Mac portion of the partioned HD. That seems to work fine for the game itself as well as all the other ships in sea folder, except for the Etoforu!!
As I said, this seems to be particular to my system, so if someone can come up with somethig to explain it great, but keep focused on working the other priorities for FotRS_Ultimate. I don't want to sidetrack that for this.

It is a different sort of combo, ain't it?
My b-i-l has a Mac like that. Goes to the nVidia for the 3d graphics.

Do you have any of the same mods enabled in your "Stock" version? If so, disable that mod and see if it changes. Do any other vessels do that? Can you get through the whole Museum, all countries, all ships and planes?

Yes, the _lr for the last one... bad case of hitting the backspace "key" on the touch pad "keyboard"... I need my good computer back... :lol: If all your files are the same, then it's not in there.

A couple things I don't understand... The ship is the same in Stock and in FOTRSU, ~and~ it does it in Wine, but not in BootCamp? So, do you have the latest Wine, but why would that matter, especially if this is the only ship doing it in your game... ??

Do you have any of the same mods enabled in your "Stock" version? If so, disable that mod and see if it changes.
Yes, and the same thing happens with TMO, w/wo RSRD, Spyron and stock. But as you say, this ship is the same.

Do any other vessels do that? No, but I haven't looked at every ship.
Can you get through the whole Museum, all countries, all ships and planes? I haven't but will look at as many other ships in the museum. But, I've played for the past few years with various mods on this system and have only seen this with Etoforu. Since the NSC_Subchaser files all look the same I surmise something in the rendering is afoul. I would suspect Wine but no other ship renders this way!


If all your files are the same, then it's not in there. Seems so, hence I wonder about the rendering, though I don't known enough about that subject.

A couple things I don't understand... The ship is the same in Stock and in FOTRSU, ~and~ it does it in Wine, but not in BootCamp? Yes, with same version of NSC_Subchaser in a TMO, RSRD mods and just stock.

So, do you have the latest "Wineskins", but why would that matter, especially if this is the only ship doing it in your game... ?? Agreed, and no I'm still using Wineskin version(2.5.6 and 2.5.8)that came out when Mac OSX 10.7.5 was new since I'm still on 10.7.5(Lion).

Which file in NSC_Subchaser defines the "size" of this ship when rendered in the Museum and when playing the game?

I dunno. I'm not at all familiar with 3d graphics, but I've always imagined vector lines, like lines of sight, perspective, determining how "close" something appears. You give the game an image, and the engine draws it... Your game is pulling a different image from somewhere. Your Etorufo has a gun. The one in FotRSU has a what appears to be a rocket launcher. I cannot remember what TMO's is... You somehow keep the stock version... and then it draws it incorrectly, like you're looking at it through the periscope from several thousand yards... Bootcamp doesn't do it though, correct? Is there a Wine update available for your particular set-up with the Lion OS? It sounds like a "No" from what you say... In order to play in BootCamp, you have to re-boot the machine, don't you, and that defeats the purpose of being able to just go from your graphics app or word processor and saying: "Buggers, this it getting old. I'm going to play me some SH4!" and off you go, correct?

Edit: One interesting thing I've discovered, and it ~might~ have some bearing, maybe - is that the _O01 texture is the same in Stock, TMO and FotRSU... All of the "O" files are 512x512 that I've opened thus far, while the SC_Subchaser's is at 1024x1024... I'm going to do me an experiment... boo-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha <mad scientist maniacal laugh>...

Just got caught up on reading the forum. Congratulations to the FOTRS Ultimate Project Team for your award. Each of you worked very hard in order to bring a mod back to life for the enjoyment of the community. Thank you for what you have done and also what you are doing to breathe life back into this project. :Kaleun_Salute: :Kaleun_Cheers:

I seem to have more than a gun turret problem with the NSC_Subchasher files in the 100_FalloftheRisingSun_Ultimate_v0.52_PublicBeta_E N.
In my NSC_Subchasher files the unpacked zip file has only got 12 files in it whereas yours and the stock game has 17.
I'm bereft of 5 files, one of them is the NSC_SubChaser.val file and the other 4 are texture files, I've included a picture of the subchasher directory so you mod gurus can see the problem more clearly and upload a patch for it.

YOur only looking at what .52 mods, the list propbeanie shows is from the modded NSC_Subchaser folder in the Sea folder.

Why didn't I think of that, I'm beginning to think I'm on that slippery downhill slope I've been hearing about. :damn:

The bad thing about that slope, there's no steering mechanism, and the brake shoes are thin when you start, and wear out ~fast~... let me tell ya... But, I can at least see the bottom of the hill now... Oh, wait, that's a cliff edge I'm seeing-g-g-g-g-g-g.....

:timeout:

:har:

splatttt...

Was sent to take pictures of Hiroshima harbor. Two Akagi class carriers were stuck together.

July 31, 1942

On the way out of the harbor i saw what looked like two ships that collided. Both were stopped. One was on fire, the other was sitting so low in the water it looked like it was about to sink.

Also saw another ship doing wide circles with only it's aft sticking out of the water. It almost ran into me. Took some video of it LOL.

Rather entertaining, isn't it? sometimes... unless you get to fix it... :doh: Thanks for the date. I'll overlay the files from that time frame and see what it shows. I have found before, that the HarborTraffic will sometimes interfere with the Coastal, which interferes with the Convoys, which interferes with... etc. and what you're seeing is multiple ships attempting to occupy nearly the same space at the same time. They can't utilize their collision avoidance during the spawn :03:... The average player doesn't always see that, especially if they get there after-the-fact, and it only looks like a bombing raid just went through.

Fuel issue...
 

I was wondering if the limited fuel and electric is forced with this mod? I was trying to run several areas to test things out but kept running out of fuel or having to go back to refuel. I in-ticked the the fuel option under options but it doesn't appear to work. :wah:

Jack

uhhh... I dunno. I had it on unlimited fuel a while back, but I don't remember when it was. It worked then. I'll do me some looking later tonight. I do know one thing, and that is that when you're in the career mode, it matters little what you set the game to from the "Options" choice on the main menu. Once you're in the "Office" for the start of your career, click on the radio in the upper left of the room, and choose your options ~again~ from up there, because the career start in v0.52 is overwriting your other choices. At this time, when v0.53 comes out, it seems to do OK... for the most part.

It also looks to me that they have taken the Ahead 2/3 as the most fuel economic setting, and not the Ahead Standard of older TMO versions...

Ah, dud, forgot to try and reset from office. I'll do that now. Thank you.

:Kaleun_Cheers:

Jack

Nothing's forced, Jack. Some things are default but you can change that when you're in the office at port.
