Thanks! Good to be back.

I might just try that.

Hello Traveller, glad you mentioned OM, I just to decided to try it out. Does your mod include any upgrades for U-boats in OM? If not, have you got any idea how to include some upgrades for U-boats?

Trav,

I can't send you PM's now.

I know several here have ver 2.02, I'll PM around and see if it can get uploaded and see if a mod will check the RSRD links to get them back working.

I won't be home until Sunday, so don't have PC with files.

Thanks to Neal, Traveller is back.

I understand, Armistead. Thanks. And if you still have my v1.1 sound mod (with the falling bomb sounds), I'd appreciate that, too. And my PM is working now.

Hi Mido. I didn't make any changes to U-boat upgrades in Traveller mod for Om, but Om does already include many upgrades you can get with renown points.

Thanks for your reply! I noticed that there are some equipment upgrades but never got a better boat yet. I started a career with a Type VIIB boat in '39 and still didn't get a more advanced boat in '43!
Do you know where to edit the U-Boat upgrades (not equipment upgrades)?
BTW, great modpack for OM!!!

Welcome aboard Traveller. Glad to see you made it. If you've been to the Ubi site, you probably noticed some changes for the worse. Most of us older guys and girl have all but abandoned ship over there.

Check out in General Topics here and join the rest of us Ubirats in the bilge.

Hi fireftr18. Good to be back here. It's a shame what happened over at the Ubisoft forums. I can see why everyone jumped ship over there. Oh well. This place is much better anyway.

Thanks for all the info. I had never tried this mod and was about to install it when I saw this thread....it answered a few questions I had. Mod is working fine and I am looking forward to any updates you may do Traveller

I find the Traveler Mods fascinating. The damage model, being able to sit on the bottom for repairs(when not in avoidance mode) and all the other aspects the mods create is a wonderful addition to the game.

It forces ... or urges you to be a bit more judicious in your actions and I find that adds to the fun of playing.

Wait until you get enough damage that you barely make it to the surface, then you sink right back down again.

Thanks for trying out my mods. I hope you enjoy them. That was one of my main goals with Traveller Mod- to make the player play more cautiously and realistically, or pay the consequences for reckless behavior. It was also to make for more drawn-out ordeals when damaged. That instant death screen when hull integrity reached zero always drove me crazy.

Speaking of which... Yesterday I was playing a campaign game with a 2.03 beta version of Traveller mod, and I was heavily depth-charged near Truk in my S-boat. Took several direct hits. We had complete, unrepairable pressure hull failure and sank, bottoming out at around 280 feet. Unable to repair the flooding and surface, we slowly waited for death due to lack of oxygen.

Had that happen to me with 2.02. Luckily rough water, enemy left, stuck on bottom in about 250ft. I was close to land and inched up using my 1 kt speed until I got the boat surfaced. .

I'm running with RSRD and Operation Monsoon, just had to have the Atlantic. Are these mods compatible with the one's I mentioned? I'd love to be able to sit on the ocean floor and have repairs going on. Hopefully without DD's finding me and raining death on my head!

Also, Does Traveller have a mod page? I'm trying to track down a forum post that had one individuals personal mods he had made. They ranged from clothes for the crew to new sounds for the boat and other things. I can't remember the name it was under and using the search function hasn't helped when I can't remember anything.
