Hello Captains,

iam still working on the new version but my new job reduced the time for modding down to a few minutes each week.

The german version for SH4 V1.4 is nearly ready and we from AOTD will test this version out in AOTD´s new SH4-Onlinecampaign from Februar to Mai 2012.
After this is done i start the converting to SH4 V1.5 english version.
Sorry for that but job and real-life is the major thing i have to handle.

Regards

Maddy

So I have SH4 v1.5 and I'm running FOTRS. I have one small issue. The course dial is exceptionally large and blocks the right arrow on the recognition manual. Is there anyway to fix that?

I figured it out, I've been pressing delete to hide the entire interface. That was noted in the FOTRS manual lol....

Hello Captains,

i always have been asked of the release date.

The answer is quiet simple.

In 2008 when i started the work on FOTRS i never beleaved how complex FOTRS grow up in the future.
I started the work with the knowledge of SH3-Modding.
I used many Dat´s with embedded TGA´s without any knowledge of the problems those kind of files will bring in future.

SH4 is an bigbored son of SH3.
Some files changed for better grafiks, for example the DDS-format.
Everybody knows that DDS-files are smaler then TGA´s.
FOTRS V2.0 got so many units and other parts that i have to shrink down the grafik-files for more stable run.
The last days i restructured all Dat´s with embedded images to Dat´s with external DDS-files.
The win is over 260MB on space.
The result ?
Now V2.0 runs very stable and the last things ( rewriting the campaign) could be done now.

The USS Tennesse is finished and i hope i can release V2.0 in the end of spring ore the beginning of summer.

Sorry for the long waitingtime but the engine of SH4 collaps with the old structure from older FOTRS versions and FOTRS should be an big but stable working Mod !

Her last pictures of the Tennessee after refit in 1943.









Sorry for my bad english

Regards

Maddy

Max, you will release it when you release it. The devs who make Over Flanders Fields have a policy, that when people ask about a release date, they just say "in 2 weeks".

Get yourself "Skwas" and re-edit the gun zone file to whatever you want .

Hi Kimuraijn.
It is "Silent 3 Editor" by "Skwas" (S3D). You can go to the library and in Subparts change the reload time in the .sim file, obj_cannon.
