Thanks for the patience, my friend, I really appreciate it!

Yes, the Attack Disk was an initial "customer" for me, but since I handn't seen any for SH4, I figured the RAOBF would be a better candidate.

I'll have to look at installing KSD-II if for no other reason than to lurk around it and see what I can find. I had done the same with DW6, which is what I have been using as a "template" of sorts. I never found an Attack Disk there.

Which brings me to another question which I think has been posted somewhere on the forums before: Is there a difference in how the sim "looks" at things you can have in-sim depending on which "career" you choose? (i.e. -- whether you are German or American).

My guess is "yes" since I've seen posts where some radar data, for example, was saparated from US and German into two (2) different categories. Not only that, but it was WAY off from what it should be. I believe Capt Scurvey fixed some of those things and they are now part of TMO and FotRSU, but not sure.

If this is the case, then we probably can't have a disk or AOB "tool" on the American side because it has been "coded-out" by the devs since Americans are "supposed" to be using TDC/PK for everything. THAT would be a definate "buzz-kill" for the S-Boats since they were basically an American copy of WWI U-Boats (well, sort of).

I'll keep digging. If I can find the Attack Disk, I can probably just swap out the graphics for an "is-was" and just leave it at that. I just like the possibility of using the S495/S505 since it can be used for FAR more things in-sim than just AOB.
