I replaced the default with a bow mounted unit and thats all I've changed. Is this a known bug or am I just a particularly dumb noob?

From the first thread:

When you man a deck gun or anti-aircraft gun for the first time on a patrol, you must click the shell icon in order for the gun to load. Do NOT, repeat, do NOT post messages to the effect of "my gun is out of ammo!" here on the forum. You will be referred to this thread instead.
We put that information out there for a reason. ;)

Err...I suppose that means I need to go find me some paint. Although in my defense this thread is like 53 pages long and the OP itself is massive as well ;)

Hi, I've found a small bug which made it impossible to load Mk 18s after Jan 1 1944.
In \Data\UPCData\UPCUnitsData\ammo.dat, the Mk18 entry reads:
AmmunitionIntervalOptions1= 1943-09-01, 1943-12-31, 250
AmmunitionIntervalOptions2= 1944-01-01, 1944-06-30, 125
AmmunitionIntervalOptions3= 1944-07-01, 1944-12-31, 75
AmmunitionIntervalOptions3= 1945-01-01, 1950-05-31, 0

Replaced that with Options4 and the Mk18 was back
:)

OK--I've been on land for quite some time now and have only recently freed up some time to go back to sea. So, I Down Loaded the new RFB expecting great things only to find that...

You guys are doing Extremely Good Work Here!!! Very impressive! And where did you get that DC Explosion sound from (I like it)?

Thanks for all your efforts! I certainly appreciate it!

Hopefully I'll free up some modding time soon as your work has flung a craving upon me :lol:...

Cheers :rock:

Peto! I wondered what happened to you. The last word from you was about your evasion/extremely aggressive DD mod. I believe you were taking care of your aging
father. How is he doing?

Peto 07-07-08 02:05 PM

Hello AVG! Your memory is correct (impressively so. Hope I never get on your bad side LOL). My father is definitely aging and continues to do so every day ;). But he's doing pretty well. Getting cranky which means he's learning something from his son :shifty:.

I've started a little tweaking with sonar again with all the recent software changes and it's shaping up ok. I may pass it to the RFB team to see what they think of it in a few days. And there's another project I back-burnered for a while that I've been tweaking again. Time will tell if it works out.

Thanks for the Nod :yep:!

Yes, I thought I remembered about your dad. My memory was questioned just this very weekend but that is a different story. I'm glad your dad is doing ok. My dad was diagnosed with prostrate cancer this week. Said it was treatable. He is 75. Not really a surprise for this issue at his age. We will see how it goes. Anyway, PM LukeFF with what you have. Glad to see you back.

RFB Download Filefront
 
Hi, I have been trying to download the latest RFB update (1.5.062308) from Filefront for awhile now but there is very poor download speeds which cause the download to time out. I realise that difficulties can occurr with downloading from Filefront. Is there any other site I can download from?

Disregard the last - have now managed to download the file. :up:

Sorry to hear about your dad's illness AVG. Sounds like they caught it in time and that's great news! It's still a pain though... I'll keep him in my thoughts and pray for the best.

And now--as a non-moderator--I'll steer this thread back to RFB and those amazing wizards that make it happen ;)!

Cheers!

Thank you! We'll make sure that gets fixed in the next update.

It's from a CD put out by Uboataces.com about the U-995. The torpedo launching, interior ambiance, diesel engine and the ballast blowing sounds also come from that disk.

Hi LukeFF, any ideas yet about my Sargo massive savegame issue? You mentioned you thought you had it licked before, what was the fix, maybe I'll try it in S3D.

It's no game-killer for sure, just a minor annoyance. I'm having a hoot enjoying all the little things in RFB, but am realizing i'm out of practice: 12 fish for 1 hit in the last three attacks.

I will give it a run tonight. What base, month and year. Oh are you running RSRDC along with it?

Happy Hunting!:ping:

Thanks, it's May, 1942 out of Freemantle. Yep, i'm using the latest full RSDC for RFB, but not the patch. Savegames are about 300 megs.

Holly, just loaded a saved game now, yea, its like 450MB, no fix for this yet??
