For those of you wondering what Ducimus has been doing here is the changelog for his new Beta_TM available from the Ubi forums as listed By SteveW1:-

PS looks like he's had a real bad case of the condition known as C.T.D..:rotfl::rotfl:

quote:

//submarine changes.
- changed player sub throttle settings to values used in SWSD's diverate mod

- slightly lowered draft on all subs.

- adjusted gc_height ratio on all subs to prevent over rocking or flipping.

- increased subs crush rate from 0.45 and 0.5 to 0.7 and 0.8

- increasued surface depth variable to better allow for decks awash

- increased deep dive variable to 400 meters. If you want to suicide, im not going to stop you!

- Tench class merged in.

- Removal of "bathtub" (aka Early war CT)

- Fixed Narwhal to be independant from any other sub type for conning tower or texture.

//player sensor changes.
- changed Player hydrophones RPM det level from .25 to .1 as recommended by Lurker_hib3

- added SV radar adjustments by Lurker_hib3

- OBs scope max and percise range reduced.

// AI sensor changes.
- changed Ai hydrophone noise factor from 0.4 to 0.45 (stock 1.0)

- max elevation for all type93 active sonar changed to 112

- AI visual light factor from 2.5 to 5 (stock 1.7)

- AI visual speed factor from 25 to 8

// submarine interior changes.
- Changing crew configs to be more realistic then stock.

- changed Chief Petty officer uniform so hes more easily identifiable from an officer.

- Interior lighting in submarine interiors changed. Assumes your not using PPF.

- shuffled some nodes around

//interface changes

- changed periscope textures

- ATK periscope darkned by night, Obs now lives up to its name of "night scope".

- added compass lubber line for orders by jimimadrid

- changed title screen and loading screens.

//realism setting changes

- Easy, external cam on, event cam off, auto target on

- Normal, external cam off, event cam on, auto target on

- Hard, external cam off, event cam on, manual target on

- adjusted realism values. Ext camera on will be 75%, ext cam off will be 85%, maual TDC with ext cam off 100%. Event cam not penalized.

// campaign changes

- Fixed Tin cans that were not pinging.

- Minesweeper and Subchaser changed to DE's and renamed to SHIMUSHU, and ETOROFU class escorts.

- Minekaze is now a DE

- Removed all previous "auxillary subchaser" or any ship that was previously modified to be a corvette class.

- Fixed the armed tugboat so it no longer CTD's when used as an escort and set it as the new (and only) corvette class.

- Fixed the Kaiboken escort. It previously did not have any sonar nodes of any kind. It does now, and it doesnt mess around!

- Bungo pete, and both incarnations of Enisgn Parker are now a Frigate class, and should not be found in the normal campaign game.

- Manually edited all campaign layers to reflect the above ship changes

- Reduction of aircraft spawning (pending)

- fixed all subschool, singlemissions, and single patrols to reflect all unit type changes.

- Added Fleetboats usable only by the AI. Currently they are only positionied as mock fleet submarines in port near a tender.

- Changed mission scripting for all sink and patrol missions.

- changed 3rd iteration of torpedo gyro angle errors from a max deviation of 2 degrees, to 1 degree.

//sound changes

- changed perisocope updown sound.

- made torpedo tube door sound audible.

- changed menu background music.

NOTE: For some changes to be applied (such as crew placement), you may have to start a new career game.

I'd say go donwload it and test it for the guy and leave him the feedback he needs.
good luck Ducimus, Just be aware the download is around 280MB and this uncompresses to about 900MB and its on FileFront.

Javelin · 02-18-08, 10:39 AM

Using it with a saved career. Started TM in port. Two missions later still no problems.

DavyJonesFootlocker · 02-18-08, 11:41 AM

Damn, he's using FileFront.

silent killer · 02-18-08, 03:52 PM

Hi steveW1 JUST DL tm beta will try it out , will post any problems. i also sent duci a post at ubisoft

lurker_hlb3 · 02-18-08, 06:01 PM

All RSRDC users please note the following

WARNING

Do not use RSRDC with Trigger Maru Overhaul (BETA), my code review noted that v320 plus Patch3 will "NOT" run correctly. Will create a new version of RSRDC after TMO is out of Beta testing.

AlmightyTallest · 02-18-08, 08:35 PM

Dang, thanks for the heads up lurker, was planning on getting this and trying with RSRD Patch 3.

Does this latest TM include all of the Row special effects and combine the three patches that origionally came with TM 1.7.6 just all rolled into one giant install?

That is basic correct

M. Sarsfield · 02-19-08, 11:02 AM

Ducimus orignally split them into 3 files so people could pick and choose the mods that they wanted. I guess that he decided that it was easier to just keep it as one file.

DavyJonesFootlocker · 02-19-08, 11:51 AM

Is there another link to download the file? FileFront is off limits to me here.

dean_acheson · 02-21-08, 10:36 AM

lurker, is this going to get out of 'beta' phase?

why don't they jive?

i can't live without rsrd.

dean_acheson · 02-21-08, 02:18 PM

No?

I'm running both now, with TM and then RSRD and the patch installed.

I'm on the Wahoo, outside Midway on June 1, 1942, guess we will see in a second if there are any problems....

As I said earlier don't use the current version of RSRDC with TMO (Beta).

If it starts CTD-ing don't come looking for me to fix it.

dean_acheson · 02-22-08, 10:50 AM

Oh, I wouldn't.

I figure if I screw something up that is my problem.

I've just found RSRD adds a ton onto the program, and I really like the new features of TM beta.

I know not to ask Duci around here, I don't think he hangs out here much.

dean_acheson · 02-22-08, 05:01 PM

Lurker, I think that this TMO beta, and I don't know how much Duci is going to change between now and when it ain't beta.

http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...5/m/6561090636

I ran around Midway last night, found the Carrier group, and a couple of downed aviators.

Saved somewhere, haven't rebooted yet.

So far, so good.
