TMO 19 Wheres the enemy??

TorpexXIII · 09-28-10, 05:32 PM

Hi guys,

Im loving the general layout and workings of TMO. However I have one oddity. It generaly appears a little light on the ships / convoys??

Ive just completed days in the middle of the Celebes Sea. I stuck to the shipping routes shown on the radio/map display and nothing??!!

Ive nearly got to go home and all Ive seen is a 2 ASW patrols (avoided) and a couple of sampans and fishing boats (no mercy..)

Im in 1942 so Im assuming there should be an abundance of enemy?!?

Anyone shed any light?

Cheers.

PS This is the third straight patrol with almost no contacts!!??

First, I would upgrade to TMO 2.0 pus the "beta patch" it's better than 1.9

Second, in 1942 convoys were not that numerous as Japan didnt fully adopt the convoy system until well into 43 and really in mid 44.So you will encounter more singles than anything in early war.Celebes Sea is pretty dry in 42 as far as convoys go.

I sort of thought that maybe that was the answer. However Im not encountering anything lol!?

Where can I find TMO 2.0 and the patch. On the downloads mega mods bit I can only find 1.9 (which I have)

?

Thanks for help

Yeah I think I really need TMO20 where do I get it !!!?? LOL

Im just nearing the end of a patrol. I followed the following course in a mid 1942 with surface radar patrol.

Departed Fremantle set course to Mindanao. Headed North and eventually passed through the Lombock Straight. In turn through the Makassar Straight. Swept accross the Celebes Sea. Set 6 troops off on the East coast of Mindanao NNW of Davao.

Then received new orders to attack enemy shipping and my discretion.

Took this a great opportunity for a hunting. So headed East and patroled the Palau Island chain for a bit. Then SE accross the New Guinea coast heading roughly E and SE. Through the Bismarck Sea and into the New Georgia Sound (The Slot) hunting the famed Tokyo Express (should be well acive at the time I was there)

I saw ONE!!! large Sampan for the entire cruise. NOTHING else....nothing. A few air patrols. Not a bean in the way of shipping ??????

HELP Where can I get TMO 20????!!!!
