Problem with firing torpedoes

Hi all, First post here.

I had been playing SHIV for some time now and have used various mods over time.

I decided to try some of the supermods which I have not done before.

First I completely wiped SHIV from my 'puter and did a Fresh install.
I then patched to 1.4
Then I installed via JCGME the current version of RFB for the 1.4 version
I then installed via JSGME the RSRD version for RFB 1.4

I started a new career and I was having trouble with my firing solutions. No matter how well I worked to get a good firing solution, the computer kept sending my Fish about 30 degrees off target BEHIND the target ship. Firing from 90 degrees AOB and 800yds and still my torps pass about 500 yds behind the ship.

I tried again this time disabling the manual targeting and going for a lesser realism and still the same thing. Fish keep passing behind. At this point playing the game is IMPOSSIBLE because the fish will always miss no matter what.

I tried then to install the mod for the Japanese ship dimention fix.
Started a new career and I hit just fine....

Until I load a saved game (or even continue a game after having saved but not loaded)

Then those damn fish keep passing astern again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any Ideas?
Right now the game is IMPOSSIBLE to play and I am at wits end and frustrated as all get out!
