Problems installing TMO mod/ Can someone assist?
 

Hey folks. I'm having trouble getting the TMO mod to work. I have a fresh and working install of SH4 patched to 1.4.(This after my SH4 install stopped working for some reason. Don't know what happened as it worked last time I played it. All is working now though)

I'm accustomed to the Jonesoft mod enabler program and usually don't have problems there. I downloaded the mod and placed it in my "MODS" folder. I enabled it using Jonesoft. I downloaded the TMO patch and placed it in teh "MODS" folder. I enabled it in Jonesoft. When I go to start SH4, I can see the new TMO splash screen and loading bar. But the loading bar will freeze after getting to full. When I alt tab out I see this message:

File not found: data/menu/data/black80.tga

I tried enabling TMO first and then starting the game only to have the loading bar freeze a bit shorter from full and still getting the same message in the background when I alt tab out. I also tried putting the patch files in the TMO folders itself to allow it to overwrite and fix what I assume the patch needed to fix.

Can someone help me? I checked the size of the downloaded file and it seems to concur with the download page so I don't think there's a corrupt download.

Thanks for any assistance.

Which version of TMO are you using? The latest, 1.9, requires that you have SH4v1.5. You'll need either the U-boat addon, or an earlier version of TMO if you're only running SH4v1.4.

Thanks razark for the assistance. That probably explains it as I don't have the uboat addon. Thanks again.
