I'm using the MMM 0.5 mod.

I'll send you my test mission I used for testing this patch change. Give me a few

This is the test mission I used for developing the patches related to magnetic detonators and torpedo duds: http://www.mediafire.com/?chh6kfmi7y7a64o

This single mission has stock SH5 ships and imported ships that I made so it tests GR2 files and dat files.

The torpedoes.sim file is setup for magnetic detonator testing (all premature detonations, guidance problems, depth keeping problems, dud chances, etc. have been removed). You'll need to re-enable some or all of these depending on what kind of testing you want to do (if you want to do dud testing then you'll need to change the % chance for the duds from 0 to some number)

Thanks TDW!

Will check this out later, hopefully tonight, or then tomorrow. Really need the duds!

If i have all the patches enabled and dont use any mods and do the tutorial the game goes back to the start of the intro movie when the torps are about to hit the first tutorial ship .

The game freezes and the desktop shows the start of the intro movie frozen . End SH5 program to fix it . Its not a complaint , just an observation . This only happens with the latest torp fix with the patcher .

That may shed some light on something I saw in the Debugger in SHSim.act. When it says collision happened one of the first things it does is retrieve a pointer to SimData.act. Once it has the pointer it calls a function that returns a value denoting whether the user is playing a tutorial mission or not. I never followed that path to see what it did/lead to but sounds like I need to now

It's look like a problem which I have.

OK, silly question, TDW:

The way I've been patching the sh5.exe so far is to use the app included in your NewUI 6_9_0. Is that the same as downloading the patch 1.0.24 and Simpatch from the first post in this thread?

Should be. I'd use the new version though as it's more generic in nature and is compatible with the new layout of the S5P files. I'm surprised the version in v6.9.0 can read the new patch files. Hell maybe I made it backwards compatible

I really don't remember. I have to look at the code in VS to know exactly what I did.

Hi TDW!

Just tried single mission. It's not the imported ships problem. Mods list:

-SH5 RUS
-Magnetic Detonators 4m by TDW

And all the patches enabled.

Game freezes when the torp is about to hit the first ship. Only end program can fix it.
Test single mission - http://www.gamefront.com/files/21735619/Test+Mission.7z

EDIT: Maybe it is important - torpedo depth is 1 m
