Ok, found a bug. Have a complete 100% stock sh4. In the campaign menu, if you choose to start in the very beginning of 1942 (jan 2nd), i get a ctd right at clicking the start date.

i had the bug too but it's not so dificult to fix it. you must only change any entry in the careerStart.upc where stand F2SkipjackSSN to F2OhioSSBN.
when you have done these the mod will be run great.

Was doing some research on Skipjack era torpedoes and found that Mk 37's would have been more than likely loaded. Perhaps instead of the Mk 48 from the Ohio mod, it would be more appropriate to use a Mk 37? Also how are you feeling tomagabriel, better I hope?

Hi all!

I'm back and feeling better. It was a terrible virus but I was stronger :)) Then I took some well deserved days off from work and almost everything else.

Coming back to the Skipjack, I will document myself with the Mk 37 and very likely include it when I'm done reading.:D

ETR3(SS) 04-24-09 06:49 PM

Good to have you back in good shape! :up:

Great to hear about you getting well :yeah:. The Mk37 would be nice to have since i feel kinda bad about having adcaps, wanna use correct torps for nuke's but the adcaps make me feel really sorry for the enemy, they have no chance lol.

Periscope depth
 
Hello,

After trying the Skipjack...I wanted to say that it is the best sub mod I've used so far. It worked great in an American campaign, alongside TMO 1.7 with W_clears real environment mod.

I went into the cfg file and changed the periscope depth to 18.5 meters and it sits just right, below the surface. So, I can navigate the shallows just as well as the older WWII subs.

Thank you for this mod, its really freakin cool.

Hi, I'm still using the Skipjack, still working great and a lot of fun...but...I'm getting repeat missions while using it. I use TMO 1.7 also. I've never experienced repeat missions before and not sure if it could be the sub mod.

I began at the start of the war. First patrol was to Convoy College for further orders...have had the same orders for the fourth time out.

Thanx.

Oh, thats cool tomgabriel...thanx, I'm not currently using it. Switched back to my regular boat. I just wanted to report a possible bug.

Also, I've noticed that with the Skipjack I cannot begin a career on July 1st, 1943 (I think thats the date) because I get a CTD when I click on that date to set the career up, wierd.

This sub is awesome, ty so much :woot:.

Have fun!
:sunny:

Nice mod :up:.

It reminds me of the concept in the movie "The Final Countdown" What if you had all of this power in say 1942. Here is the Wikipedia page for the movie:

BTW, I also experienced the problem of having the same mission orders.

ETR3(SS) 05-04-09 08:42 PM

hmm, I would suspect it has something to do with the way the missions are done in the Flotillas.upc for SH4 1.5. When I converted that file to the 1.4 format the repeat missions dissapeared. I'm downloading 1.5 now so maybe I can look into this more tomorrow. What base where you sailing out of also?
