This may or may not be of any consequence. But given the coincidence that I am seeing here, after reading what you have to say about the Salmon, I think that I should speak up. So here goes.

After the newest release, I posted here after a quick FOTRSU v0.90 game session. In that posting I mentioned that I'd done a complete SH4 reinstall. But I did not mention the events that led me to do the reinstall. Here is what happened that I failed to mention earlier. Normally I wouldn't have done a complete reinstall of SH4. And I have not done a complete reinstall since installing SH4 on my newer computer over a year ago. On this new machine I have been running three separate installs while using MultiSH4. 1st copy is a clean source of game files that I don't play at all. Copies 2 and 3 are the installs that I actually run the game from. Last night, When I needed to change to the newest version of FOTRSU, I deleted the contents of copy two's saved games folder in my documents folder. Next I deleted the contents of the copy two game folder itself. I then did a select all, copy in my first copy SH4 folder and pasted those copied files into folder number two. I have read elsewhere on these forums (maybe this thread?) that this is an acceptable practice and amounts to the same as a reinstall. A shortcut method I guess. Next comes the coincidence. And the reason I post here about this. The pasting of the copied files started as usual. But then windows gave me a warning, for the very first time I might add, that the Salmon.dat file was unreadable. At least I think it was Salmon.dat. It was Salmon something. Since things seemed to have gone sideways on me. I then went and read Rockin Robbins edited and updated post at the top of page one of this forum. He does say to (re-install) the program. I've read here before that we should read the updated post #1 when a new version of FOTRSU is released. After reading post #1, I decided to completely uninstall SH4. I then re-downloaded the game from Amazon and installed it, applied LAA to SH4.exe, and added FOTRSU using JSGME as per instructions. Just a single installation at this time. Funny thing is that the new Amazon download auto detected my native screen resolution and I did not have to set it manually in the game settings as I always had to before. That was a first for me. Is there an app data folder somewhere that I missed? Or has Amazon tweaked their installer?

Anyway I've just barely started a new career on December 8th, 1941. Tambor out of Pearl. The boat was delivered with air search radar, but has no surface search radar. Nor was surface radar available for purchase before starting the patrol. In fact the only thing available to purchase (that I did not already have on the boat), with my 500 renown, was a one new crew member for 250. All remaining available personnel, that cost renown to add, cost more than my 500 renown starting number. And yes, I had to switch on the air search radar.

I really thought that I should mention the coincidence about the copy Salmon file read error. It's probably unrelated. But I thought it best not to make that determination myself. Rather that I should post about it here.
