Just to update you on Post #46.

The ID icon in the Periscope Station sends the name of the target to the TDC along with the Mast Height so now you can pick out the target from the rec manual straight away if you still want to use it.

This is very useful in rough seas and when at long ranges.

i had it when first came out, years ago then i went heavy into sh5. just bought sh4 on steam. couldnt get the old disk to load.

My current mod list

TMOwTw 2.50
wTw 2.50 Max Optics with Crosshair
Webster's Eliminate Floating Plankton
Eye Patch for TMO v1.7
Bigger Better Protractors
Convoy Routes TMO+RSRD
Stop The Shouting
Pacific Sound Mod

I cannot praise this TMOwTw 2.50 lighter version of the mod TMO v2.5 high enough.

This little known mod is a complete package and deserves a lot more attention and recognition.

Personally I think it has a lot to offer over RFB.

As TMOwTw 2.50 is a complete package using RSRDC with it suppresses and overwrites a lot of TMOwtw 2.50 capabilities.

I have played it with RSRDC and am currently testing without it and to date I am not disappointed.

Peter

whats a link to that tmo wtwt Berb? I am too tired to look!! :dead:

Hi Red Devil

Peter

tell your mum your a good lad!!

will remove RSRDC and TMO and just run this one ........................

I tried that mod Berb, with a new sub, does not seem all that different from what I had installed.

Hi Red Devil

You secretive Devil

You have not done us the honour of showing us your mod list.

Quote >does not seem all that different from what I had installed.

Would have been nice to know what you did have installed before you changed it.

At my age my imagination is not that good.

Peter

I was in process of upgrading mod list so delayed, this is what I am currently running:


RSRDC TMO V502
RSRDC Vxxx Patch 1
1. Trigger Maru Overhaul 2.5
Newdepthcharges
Pacific Sound Mod (presume working as I have great sound effects and chat)
TMO Visuals for RSRDC
Torpex Torpedos
Webs Eliminate plankton (working too)
Webs Faster TC near land
Webs improved torps for 1.4
Webs Reduced radio traffic for 1.4
Webs selected new sounds for 1.4
Webs smaller rain v2
FJB Navigation Maps

I am not altogether sure which are working, or not, yet

4 of them are coloured phased out to light grey, prob means they work

RSRDC
Pathc
1. Trigger Overhaul
webs faster tc near land

the remainder are still in black

Being greyed out in JSGME means that the greyed out one has been altered by a mod later in the list. Basically one of the later ones is over-writing some changes from the first few mods you have installed.

Thasnks Lex, have had 3 crashes in past 2 days, and before that none in a VERY long time, may start again with reinstall, just took out three ships in a convoy and CRASH, again all in Drum.

Hi RD

In JSGME

Go to Tasks

Go to Export activated mods list to

Clipboard

Then just paste to your post

No typing involved.

I think most of Webster's v1.4 versions are for stock?

Some may or may not work.

As I have never seen any Plankton yet I guess this mod works.

Webster's Better Air Patrols is a good mod and works.

Peter

I need to experiment as I have lost the FJB maps now; they just wont run, and they are one hell of a lot better than the standard.

Pacific Sound Mod
Torpex Torpedoes
Webster's Better Waterline Colors for v1.4 and v1.5
Webster's Eliminate Floating Plankton for v1.4 and v1.5
Webster's Faster TC Near Land for v1.4 and v1.5
Webster's Reduced Radio Traffic for v1.4 & v1.5
Webster's Selected New Sounds for v1.4 & v1.5
Webster's Smaller Rain v2
Webster's Underwater Visability Mod for v1.4 & v1.5

Now going to try this setup

Hi RD

If you use the last mod list that you are showing do you realize that you will be using the Stock interface?:down:

Peter

Trigger Maru Overhaul 2.5 is a mega mod which changes many things and should always be installed first. You have the TMO version of RSRDC installed before TMO, so it won't work right.



I don't know about Newdepthcharges or some of the others, but Torpex Torpedos and Webs improved torps for 1.4 might conflict or interfere with each other.

I am trying all variants at present. But the main this is the FJB mod, which is excellent, does not work at all now. I tried the above list to see it it was better than the RSRDC variant, nope, so will probably revert to previous, original mods, will list when done .....

I still play Silent Hunter 4 almost everyday
I tried a lot of mods and when it comes to the big mods i'll always end up back at TMO 2.5

I also added the no trembling mod below the water

Changed a lot of sounds myself
A few from SeaQuest, Crimson Tide and Battlestar Galactica
The way Gaida says action stations is brilliant :)

Then i have installed the Typhoon which is one my favorite submarines (thank you jhapprich ;)) I added a few 100 extra targets to fire upon during my pimped campaign :)

The fact that you can change so many stuff in this game keeps it interesting and new.

Who's still playing? I just started!
 

Two weeks ago, August 12th 2014, I had the end of summer blues and was scrolling through Steam for a quick cheap game. Some how I ended up watching the Silent Hunter 5 trailer and after reading some reviews settled on Silent Hunter 4.

The following 14 days went something like this...

1. Read Manual.
2. Launched Vanilla Silent Hunters IV: Wolves of the Pacific.
3. Played Single Mission on 100% Realism. (it's the only way to go)
4. Read Manual again. (lol)
5. Searched "Silent Hunter 4 tutorials" via google.
6. Read CaptnScurvy's High Realism Tutorial and printed out AoB Calculator.
7. Downloaded Silent Hunters IV: U-Boat Missions.
8. Watched Rockin Robbin's Youtube tutorials.
9. Registered on subsim.com.
10. Read, read, read.
11. Download JSGME.
12. Download and activated Webster's GFO 1.1.
13. Download and activated CaptnScurvy's SCAF 1.5. (I know it was stated as being part of GFO 1.1, but I wasn't getting the Recognition Manual and graphics tweaks I was hoping for. NOTE: there are some CTD conflicts with this combination)
14. Watched movie 'U -571'.
15. Played CaptnScury's 'High Realism Tutorial Single Mission' 15 times until I could destroy a modern tanker at 100% realism in real time by sonar only with one eye closed. Thank you Dick O'Kane!
16. Download and activated a fresh set of mods starting with TMO 2.5 w/ career sub patch.
17. Read TMO Manual. (very, very much appreciated Ducimus)
18. Download and activated RSRDC for TMO 2.5 w/ fix.
19. Pay $5 to support my local subsim.com establishment out of the kindness of my heart.
20. Read 'The Submarine Commander's Handbook'.
21. Downloaded and activate OTC 1.5(for TMO 2.5 + RSRDC) using realistic optics of course... :)
22. Started first American career campaign.
23. Watched movie 'Run Silent, Run Deep'.
24. Download and installed a heap of fred8615's music and radio station additions. Very nice!
25. Read "The Fleet Type Submarine Online" Manual.
26. Placed a hold on the book 'Run Silent, Run Deep' at my library.
27. Finished my first patrol with 5 ships down and very proud of myself.
28. Created personal submarine emblem for myself (256x256 targa file named emblem.tga placed into Data>Textures>TNormal>tex) and a kills.tga graphic as well. It's a shame too that I won't be able to see it in game on 100% Realism TMO 2.5, but I'll know it's there. :)

29. Published my first post on subsim.com. (that is this one)
..................................
30. Preparing for resultant job loss and placement in doghouse by wife. :)

Looking forward to some good times.

A big thank you to the community out there and all of the work you've done. It is still being appreciated.

Cheers, JR
