Cannot Sink Large Modern Tanker

T&L5 · 02-15-09, 11:59 PM

Hi All!
First of all, my thanks to all you folks who do such magnificent work on these Mod's.
They are truely awesome pieces of work!

Now to my question: I am running the SH v1.4 with Trigger Maru Overhaul
I'm minding my own business when along comes a Large Modern Tanker.
Now no matter how many torpedos I fire into this big old tub she wont sink. I have just fired 10 torpedos spread out aft to stern over both sides of the ship and the tanker just sits there.

What am I doing wrong? I don't have this kind of trouble with Battleships or Carriers!

Use the deck gun.

I seem to recall tankers could be hard to sink in earlier versions of the game and earlier mods, such as TMO. I have been using later versions of TMO as they come out and regularly sink large tankers with 2 - 3 torpedos.

Thank you all for your suggestions.
Just so you know, I have pumped every shell the deck gon has PLUS all the rounds from the anti-aircraft guns and the big tub just refuses to sink!

sooo,
What is the key command to release the divers????

But seriously, can I run TMO 1.7.2 with v1.4?
