At the moment, the regular FotRSU v1.46 is SubSim only. We had a split archive for v1.39 off-site due to storage limitations here. The preview for the moment is Google Drive only, but we'll have it on MediaFire hopefully soon. When we finish the rest of the changes and correct oversights in the Preview, we will have the regular release on SubSim for the full download, and we'll probably put a split archive elsewhere. (MediaFire??)

it is failing because there are too many words/characters in the Mission Briefing. i could swear that i posted about the CTD previously but i cannot find the post(s). Grrr.

anyway, if this mission in not on your change list then please add it to the list.

i edited the verbiage down to 117 words and 503 chars and it seems to work.
well, i got to the orders-map, which is a step in the right direction.
I have been trying to come up with a "search" that will find "missionbriefing=" in the text of the tsr, and then do me a character count, but I am awful with 'modern' variables and recursion, so I am going to have to call in the big dog Jeff to do me a 010 script, if he has time... We did edit the mission (as well as a few others) for proper functionality, such as where the circle displays, but I don't remember which text version I have of the tsr in the Preview. It will be late this evening before I get to check that out. Thanks though; duly noted.

Is there a way I can sort this?
Thanks in advance
As the others have said, FotRSU is basically US Pacific oriented. We did make the ship calls on the German side FotRSU compatible though, so it does play, it just plays as the Stock game, which can be somewhat lame, and Pacific only...

Definitely a good choice for SH4 German U-Boats. Like FotRSU, it is based on another good, old mod. In this case Operation Monsun done by lurker_hlb3. However, be sure you use MultiSH4 and / or empty the Save folder when you go to play it, especially if you keep FotRSU on the computer with a 2nd copy of SH4. You have to empty the Save after activating DW, just like you do when activating FotRSU (or after de-activating either, if going back to Stock). Have fun with it!

We didn't have time to check it yet, what with all of the cold-weather clothing we had to fit the crews with... - If you don't mind, after we check it for compatibility, we'll include it in the AddInMozPak for those that want to "upgrade" their interiors historically. I'm not certain if vickers03 will do similar, but probably maybe... ??

I had to set a torp to almost 0 depth to sink it. the name and location of destroyer is: Kaibo kan class long 144 13" E. Lat 42 47" N. I was near Kushiro at the time. Basically, she was out of the water. Also I am using the titan to test.

Thanks for the report. We'll look into a convoy with escort that hugs the shore perhaps just a pinch too close somewhere on its routing...

Cool. Any issues with activation, just holler. Look in the Support folder of the mod for some instructions, if you need any.
