I need help in sinking ships...

Hi everyone!

I have SH1.5 installed with various mods and am on my fourth patrol (operating with auto target). It seems that I am able to hit ships repeatedly, but they don't seem to sink. For example, the last boat I attacked was a large merchant which I hit with five hits (two on the left both front and middle, and three on the right with front , middle and back hits.) All showed very large holes below the water line. Since I used all my torpedoes getting these hits, I purposely stayed around for 3-4 days and this ship just kept floating there. The same thing has seemed to happen with all the previous boats that I have hit in my previous patrols (probably a total of about 4-5 ships). I seem to put anywhere between 3-5 holes in them, but they keep floating there for many days until I finally give up and leave without any torpedoes left. Is this result normal, or am I not shooting in the correct spot? I never played the original 1.4 version and jumped right away in the TMO mod. Could I possibly have some corruption in my mods installation? If this is normal and I just have a run of bad luck, then I will continue to persevere. I just wanted to make sure that something wasn't installed incorrectly causing this result. The game seems to otherwise be running well.

Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated by this new "jr" captain wanna be.

Best regards.

Here are the mods that I have installed (in their correct order):

TMO 152
TMO Sboat engine patch
RSRDC - TMOv15- v371
RSRDC - v371 - patch11
TMO - Enable Uboat v3
UBM Mission pack
OM - Plot - v100
Different Smoke (TMO)
Dark recognition manual
HighRess PPI Radar
Highres Dark Hud Dials
ParB's Fewer Radio Contacts
Small Chrono
Small Radar Contacts - Stag1
PhotoRec Fix - TMO all & stock
Betterscopes 1.3 clean

Edit: I just realized that I posted this in the wrong forum section. My apologies.
