Help with new TMO and RSRD

Longstreet · 02-27-08, 01:56 PM

Hi Folks,

Okay -- I am confused.

I currently have TM 1.76 and RSRD 3.20 and version 4 of the Natural Sinking Mod. I see this new TMO, which is huge -- around 220 meg -- and there is a new RSRD that is now compatible with this. So...my question is...do I disable my current RSRD,TM 1.76, and NS mods and then install the new TMO and RSRD? What about the Natural Sinking mod version 4?

Thanks!

YEP

About the natural sinking mod???

I'd find out from mod makers.

I installed TMO and RSRD last nite and so far no probs.

I wasn't much help sorry.

Okay -- I am surprised that this is the only response I have received.

Surely there are folks out there that can help me with this....please?

Thanks,

Yep...disable the lot (older TMaru, NSM4, RSRDC), install TMO, then RSRDC for TMO, then NSM4. Though NSM4 is not 100% compatible with TMaru, you can use them in this order.

Great - -thanks for your help! It is most appreciated. One question, though...what about NSM4 is not compatible with TMO?

Best,

Some files are overwritten. Nothing that will cause a CTD or bad side-effects. General concensus is, it's safe to let NSM4 to overwrite (I don't use TMaru myself, so I can't say from personal experience).

I use TM with NSM4 and no problems.

If I understant correctly, both TMO and RFB keep hit points for ships? I thought TM incorporates /some/ version of NSM.

I was looking at the torpedo files and I noticed that NSM keeps the magnetic pistols = TRUE for the torpedoes throughout the whole war whereas the other two mods tend to make it =FALSE after June 1943 (or is it '44?). I think I prefer this.

Also, if a torpedo is assigned a FALSE value for magnetic pistol, can you still switch the switch in the game? I assume the switch actually has an effect normally. Comments? Suggestions? The only thing I can think of is to tweak the NSM value that concerns me (The rest of it, of course, is top of the line).
