You check your mod order and start a new career. Most of this is due to incorrect mod orders.

If you are suing Operation Monsoon your order should be as follows.

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
OpsMonsun_V705
OMv705_to_V720
OMv720_Patch5

(If you add OMEGU then the following TWO mods need to be in this order AFTER the above order is in the correct location.)

OMEGU_v300
OMEGU_v300_Patch7

So your first 5 mods should be in this order.


1. OpsMonsun_V705
2. OMv705_to_V720
3. OMv720_Patch5
4. OMEGU_v300
5. OMEGU_v300_Patch7

Once I re-read the documentation I found that it was my mod orders that caused the bug. Once I changed the order to what the DOCUMENTATION stated I had no more issues.

These mods orders are listed in the documentation and there is a warning of corruptions if they are not in the proper order.

No this bug has been seen before. Lurker knows about it even and it's just something he never fixed.

I have only seen it occur on the allied side of the game and only if TMO or RSRD was loaded.

So no one has any clue as to what causes this?

I got the bug for the first time last week. I started a new career after that date. One thing to do is load a previous game in hopes on not getting the upgrade.

I too have wondered at the cause and cure but there seems to be nothing as yet on where the bug may be. I am wondering if it is causing some sort of crew fatigue so the crew, "cannot comply" just as if they were all kept at battle stations to long and were too tired.

Yeah I remember when you posted that thread. I always thought it had something to do with the transfer of the conning towers from SH3 to SH4. Still if someone with modding experience and enough patience figured the problem out I would be eternally grateful to them.

You will get the new tower sooner or later. The only way to continue your career is to copy parts of the saved game file (containing rank, medal, tonnage sunk, crew) before the upgrade to a dummy file that matches the state of the boat as close as possible (i.e. you get the new tower in June 1941, so you start a new career in June 1941, save the game and use this file as transplant host. The Procedure has been described in detail in the ATO subforum).

Take a look at the crew screen when the tower upgrade has gone all wrong. Some slots are empty, some slots are missing. The crew is not sleeping, they have been blown into digital nirvana. Lurker assumed that the bug is caused by additional allied equipment accidentally built into the boat when the new tower is mounted (= parts of code for US equipment is loaded when it shouldn't).

Wouldn't that be easy to fix?
