welcome to subsim and SH4.

clearly, it shouldn't do that.
please reply with your JSGME config. JSGME-Tasks-Copy to Clipboard-Paste here.

in what folder did you install SH4?
are you using Large Address Aware (LAA)?

Not sure about TMO w training wheels, have not looked at that mod in years.

Most likely its the same issues stock and many mods have had with photo missions..has to do with photo values, targets renown values not matching, etc.

If you are doing a Photo South China Sea 02, there is a Conte Verde Passenger Liner as the "target". It is set incorrectly in the Stock game, and will cause a crash. I was reasonably certain though, that TMOwTw had fixed that... The NPL_Conte_Verde cfg file should be Type=109, as well as its PLConteVerde Roster file, along with the mission file...

Just incase it jogs anybodies memory. I was given a photo mission to recon Bandar Seri Begawan Borneo South China Sea.It's March 1942. I tried to photo two ships and both times it just froze. I do have the LAA installed. If there is no solution I will just have to carry on and have a failed mission.

did it freeze on the first photo or the second?
do you recall the ship type/name(s) of your photo target(s)?

that mission does not have any ships defined within it, so you are photographing ships whose presence is due to the campaign layer or the harbor traffic layer, so it is difficult to determine the targets by just using the mission. not your fault.

It froze on the first photo. I have try it again on other ships with the same result. The mission doesn't define any ship. Ships photo at freeze are Taihosan Maru, Nippon Maru, Haruna Maru also tried with the Tug Boat.
