no offense.
hopefully, BH will see the post and have some ideas. after further review, he may even suggest the same thing that you did.

If you are using the mod I suggested in earlier post, you have it correct.

You may have found a issue with the Shokaku?

are you thinking it's a damage model issue? would it help if i setup a situation where i take the carrier under gunfire?

Possibly. CTD issues I had with torpedo detonations were resolved when removed the splash mod that had the "dud" splash. However, I have not torpedoed the Shokaku in V2.0.

i simplified the detonations by eliminating the duds but still got a CTD at impact.
how can i verify the links under Detonating?

i do not know what to think now.

we closed with the Shokaku to take it under fire.

then they got close enough to fire back and we took some casualties. Lost a man. so i took control of the gun and shot-the-crap out of their forward weapon.

then got bored and submerged. armed an aft torpedo and shot the SOB.
and it hit!

so i guess, i need to shoot some targets with the stern tubes and some with the bow tubes.

ok, continuing the testing.
i shuffled the test convoy and put a tanker as lead ship.
fired one mk14 at the tanker from approx 1100 yds.
displayed the chronometer to track the fish.
when the chronometer reached approx 20 seconds before detonation, the screen froze, went blank, then CTD. the event camera was displaying the torpedo as it traveled and i could see the tanker in the background.
so, the issue does not seem to be the Shokaku, any ship can be a target and the thing will fail.
it can't be the torpedoes because it is failing before contact/detonation.
what is effed up?

it is definitely torpedo-related or torpedo-sound-related, not sure if it is just Mk14 so my next test will be with Mk10's, since this is early 1942.

i say it is torpedo-related or torpedo-sound-related because i removed the Clang-Splash mod and then purposefully aimed for a less-than-optimal AOB hit, outside of the 75-105 degree envelope. got hits and no CTD's.

i'm going to test with Mk10's then i'm going to reenable the Clang-Splash mod and test the a less-than-optimal AOB to see if sound is the issue.

p.s.
using the a less-than-optimal AOB, i got hits with the Mk10 with and without the Sound mod.
so, it would appear that there is something amiss with an imminent torpedo hit when the AOB is nominally optimal (75-105). could this also be related to the sound of such an imminent hit?

Could torpedo changes. I will look it over but in meantime, since you have TMO loaded up etc, try using the default USTorpedo.sim, .dat, .zon files from original TMO 2.5, make a mod and run it on top of the TMO Update V2.0.

i did as you suggested but it still CTD approx 15 seconds prior to detonation.

Has anyone tried the "Rubinis 3D Clouds SH4" mod within TMO? Looks great. Downloaded it, but I dont want to screw up my current patrol by adding a mod at sea.

If you've used it, have there been any issues?
