Comments and a question:

Comments: running TMO 2.2 (have 2.5 D/Led but haven't made it back to port yet to install) and RSRD. What a wonderful experience. Some people complain that RSRD provides "too" realistic an experience, in terms of traffic, but I have had some amazing encounters. Chased a lone, large merchant in a storm, out of torpedos (I was heading back to port,) at night, and basically had to let sonar tell me where he was and then fire blind in that direction with the deck guns. I couldn't see him over 200 yards away, but I could see when my shells made impact. It took a long time and a lot of shots, but a lot of satisfaction when he finally went down. He ran and zig-zagged and did everything he could to get away.

Then tonight I was patrolling up near Dutch Harbor, which I don't like due to all of the aircraft, and so I went south to look around. Found a large convoy, warships. Thought I would get a nice cruiser, was lining everything up, then saw it was an American ship! Disappointed, but I decided I'd see where they were going. As they were making their way, they were repeatedly attacked by enemy aircraft. I watched the aircraft attack the cruisers and destroyers, and most were shot down, but some managed to sink a couple of ships. I decided to head in the direction of the aircraft to see if they came from a carrier, and a survivor square showed up on the map where the cruisers had gone down.

Now the question: I have put the submarine right on the area where the survivor square is on the map. But I can't see a survivor anywhere in the water through my binoculars. I have been looking for 30 minutes, real time, looking all around, and nothing. Is there a trick to this I am missing? I really, really don't want to leave this guy in the middle of the Pacific!!!

I can't find a summary of changes in this new version. Is there any available? Asking this because i want to know if mods like IJN Radar Fix or DC Water Disturbance still works with the 2.5 version or now are included.

I don't see why they wouldn't.

To find out if they are included read the manual.

Interesting tip. However, it did not work with 2.5. When I reloaded 2.0/2.2 a few more files were missing even though the set up worked. I sank a merchant and then deleted the set up. I just installed a clean version of SH4 and activated 2.5. I am good to go.

AH well, it was worth a shot.

Glad you got 2.5 sorted out, I'm having a blast in it

guys,
sorry if it has been asked before but i cant find the answer,
can someone explain what each optional mod of TMO 2.5 does?
i think only one of them has a doc describing its use.

TorpexXIII · 01-03-12, 07:03 AM

Guys,

Please see my entry in the main SH4 Forum (Not the mods one) entitled TMO 2.5 difficulty.

Also anyone have a TMO 2.5 compatable escort dumber?

Rather than trying to recruit someone to research your questions as to particular optional mods, you might want to consider posting the specific mods for which you wish an explanation.

trying out the new tmo 2.5 and liking it =) but... looking directly ahead in the bridge view, I get a huge fps drop. I suspect my rig is too slow to handle the bow wake

any ideas how to downsize the cpu load?

Reduce/turn off graphics options and see how it runs?
