TriggerMaru_Overhaul_17
TMU_Hotfix_041709
MaxOptics&SCAFFix TMO 1.7_41109
RSRDC_TMOv170_v411
RSRDC_v411_Patch2

Thanks for any help!

I get exactly the same, I have downloaded,erased and downloaded again but still ctd about halfway through the loading bar. I removed RSRDC fully and loaded with just trigger maru with no problem at all. So it must be RSRDC, can't figure out the problem though running out of ides

I suspect that you have downloaded the "wrong" version of RSRDC. The current download versions of RSRDC_TMOv170_V11 and Patch2 have been re-downloaded and confirmed to "binary" match the CM controlled version.

There have been over 1400 downloads of both V411 and the patch, and so far I've only heard you and one other say their having a CTD.

I think you need to recheck what your downloading and installing

Lurker, i have managed to get it going now , i just persevered. Don't know what i was doing wrong just stuck at it and it was worth the effort its fantastic i take my hat off to you. Thanks for the advice.

No targets? Its a B-I-G ocean, and you have to be in the right place (at the right time). Lurker has the ships and convoys pretty much accurate as to where they actually were. Not sure if there are any extras thrown in.

I've been in the Asiatic Fleet since the start of the war, and haven't had any trouble finding targets. Usually, when I finally get to my partol area, targets are scarce. I've been assigned to the S. China Sea, and always have to reload/refuel at Darwin at least once, and as many as four times just to get to the partol area - I run out of torpedoes before getting anywhere near the area. Here's the cruise I usually take:

Freemantle ==> Darwin (top off fuel)
Darwin ==> Banda Sea via passage W. of Timor
Banda Sea between Buru and Ceram (targets around Ambon Island) ==> W. of Obi
Obi ==> Molucca Sea (targets transit between Halmahera and Celebes)
Molucca Sea ==> Celebes Sea (Choke Point in passage between Kema and islands)
Celebes Sea ==> Sulu Sea (Choke Point is passage W. of Tawi Tawi)
Sulu Sea ==> S. China Sea via Balabac Strait Choke Point or Minboro Strait
S. China Sea - Saigon/Camrahn Bay ==> Hong Kong/S. Formosa shipping lane

I have yet to even get to the S. China Sea without returning to Darwin at least once to reload. Most of the targets are unescorted single freighters or tankers. Life gets alot easier after you get RADAR installed.

You have to loiter around known convoy routes and slowly zig zag across the route, ships will appear, fairly regularly.

First two patrols were odd with no contacts, but now I'm sold on RSRDC. Third time out, spotted two unescorted IJN Heavy Cruisers in 89 ft. of water, closed within 900 range and took them both out. Subsequent patrols have been great, stalking the shoals and grabbing tankers inbound.

Have to say this mod delivers on all levels, can't imagine playing the 'shoot em up' stock version again.

Happy Hunting! And thanks for the great mod Lurker! Lucky to have modders willing to take the time to make these sims so much more immersive and realistic.

Completely agree Raven, we are in their debt.
