Default My thoughts on TM

I started to play this Super Mod last night in earnest to really see what is has for me.

I installed TM then the ROW Mods, deliberately omitting RSRDC for TM. Started off a career campaign and...ok, so the stock campaign is intact, that's sucks! So I went back and installed RSRDC for TM and all's well. Although I miss the new types of messages which I found cool. Anyway sailing for Indochina coast and no traffic at all. Then I hit the dreaded tidal waves again. But this time ROW Pitch and Roll was uninstalled and the waves are not so violent on the boat. In fact it's too smooth a ride now (hopefully this will be addressed by another mod). Managed to find a Small Merchant and went to periscope depth. Knowing how such a great subber I am I missed with nearly every single one I sent out! Had to resort to deckkie gun. Just 4 shots and I'm done. Enemy sinking looking great thanks to Leovampire Special Effects mod! I had installed the 25sec reload deck gun mod but for some reason it's not working and firing faster than I can think (erm, that didn't come out right). I like the interior of the Porpoise sub. The poster girl is a nice touch, which brings me to,....erm, that's for another site. Really like the added names on the Nav Map- Great work! A patrol plane went looking for me after sinking the merchant but of course he can't see me 120 feet below the surface...or can he?:hmm: TM isn't bad at all. Just comes down to taste. I'm a gunner for realism but every now and then I like some fun. What can I say? I'm a grumpy old Gremlin.

One thing I miss about the whole thing is the two omitted cameras. Try as I may and following the FAQ/Readme the cameras can't seem to be enabled. I like to watch from different angles, particularly during mission building.

Well, Mr. Ducimus you did well and good compilation of work. However, that doesn't mean you're off the hook. There's still a contract out on you!:rotfl:
