You always find the latest updated version there, at the bottom of the first post of the thread.

It comes in a .zip with some more mods added.

Enable it with JSGME !

If you like - feel free to PM me and I'll help you out with some more tips for MODs.

Thanks for the recommendation. That was actually the first mod I installed (pretty much the only one). I was always a manual TDC person. While I might play with map updates turned on (because I believe the fire control party should be doing some work), I still play my part in finalizing the solution. Sometimes I get it correct. Sometimes I fail.

The issue I have is I am running into some trouble setting up the fast-90 method on this TDC (brought over from SH3 time). I have had a lot of success with giving up and firing from the hip with a guess of where they will be based on their speed. This is basically a skill I picked up to deal with pesky evading ships, but it is only good for close and fast shots. I need to be able to hit at more than 700 meters.

Looking forward to this megamod as I am one of the many who are overawed by the vast number of mods. I just want a simple mod that gives me the controls of SH3/4 or likewise, nothing to complicated. There seem to be too many variations of the UI mods etc etc.

Yours
Confused.

TDW,
I hate asking this, because i know what it's like, so i don't expect a straight answer, but i find myself dreadfully curious none-the-less.....

How's it coming?

d@rk51d3 · 01-05-11, 01:42 AM

In "spurts".......

He seems to be fixing the entire game and programming the other half that is missing so it could be some time.....

Deimos01 · 01-05-11, 03:57 PM

Aye, I cant wait to see what TDW comes up with. He has done some great work so far so this mega mod should be fantastic. I have pretty much shelved the game till this comes out as I dont care to spend an hour updating and changing mods every time I get to play.

I too must confess to some curiosity as to progress.

Capt Sinbad · 01-05-11, 05:22 PM

I was under the impression that it was due for release around the end of December. I'm not sure where i got that impression from though

In an Ideal World, we would have paid TDW for this sim!

Fauzt · 01-06-11, 11:13 AM
