Oh. Fixed already.
I play TMO and love TMO. Also OM (especially for the U-Boot side) and RFB for 1.5. But right now I am playing Fall of the Rising Sun--the 1.5 version. And they have not fixed the Porpoise yet.

I'll just take the Porpoise from TMO and make it a separate mod and JSGME it into FOTRS then.

Thanks Vickers, saved me from wasting more time fixing something already fixed.

Learned some stuff though.

Edit--Good thing I did too. After a cursory examination, there are still some fixes necessary to the Overhauled Porpoise. Gotta fix the Aft Compass, no prob, expected that. But beyond that neither the knotmeter in the Command Room nor the Control Tower works. Scottie, expedite repairs to the knotmeters. We expect contact with the Kling...uh, Japs any day now. Also, the engine RPM dials in the Control Tower, and I'm pretty sure the Control Room as well, don't work. And the Trim dials don't seem to have been tweaked either. Bummer. Glad you got rid of the Helm station. Now I don't have to fix the "compass in a barrel"*, which I have yet to find.

*Still there, just moved, still doesn't work.
Compressed air gauges now go up to 500, apparently not indicating %. Aft one was behaving like a Depth meter--trying to figure out the values, different for different gauges of the same type.

Not sure why the knotmeters don't work.* Maybe wrong index #.

*They do work, except this Porpoise is somehow incompatible with FOTRS. Everytime I order a speed, the Helm says "Cannot Comply".

Well, at least the Aft Compass works now.

Ok. I had included the Submarine folder from TMO in my Porpoise Overhauled mod folder--which caused a conflict. I deleted that and only included the Data\Interiors\Porpoise folder from TMO and now just about everything works. RPM, Knotmeters, etc.
