They didn't know it was a bug.

Anyway, you guys can figure out if the Suez canal is in the game just by zooming in close to Egypt. All the other canals are displayed as water (panama, Kiel), so I would assume that the Suez canal is also displayed on the map.

Geez Lurker, why always so mean-spirited? I didn't ask for a problem fix - I just asked for directions, nothing more... I assumed it was a legit mission. How was I supposed to know it was not a valid mission? Damn man, I absolutely adore your OM mod. You have done an unfreakin' believable most fantastic job and I cannot even begin to imagine how many hours it took to create... not to mention the hours upon hours you invest with your continued upgrade support and maintenance. You are a very respected mod genius... in my book at least. And so I just cannot figure it out... do we, I, people like me, just piss you off so badly with our stupid noob questions and lack of experience that we make you respond to us this way? What else could it be? Have I offended you somehow? I sure do hope not. If so I do apologize. Can you lighten up just a wee bit? I bet there are a lot more folks like me who love the OM mod... but always feel like we just got kicked in the nutz after swapping posts (or IMs) with you. I will probably get smacked down for this... but there ya go. Thanks again for all you do and have done for the community, Lurker.

I will just skip the mission and hit my favorite hunting grounds instead... but in the spirit of perfecting this killer mod you have created - here is the info you requested.

1. The reason for your problems is that the systems has a bad habit of assigning the last Uboat's "objective code" to your new Uboat. I your case the VIIB last objective code expired on Sept 30. If the system had assigned you the correct "objective code", you would have been heading for the Caribbean. In OM v720 I will make adjustments so this won't happen again.

2. When you received a "mission" to Australia for a Type VII, the "Alarm Bell" should have gone off saying there something wrong here.

3. If I have posted it once, I have posted more times than I can count, I need facts to solve problems.

4. As far "feel like we just got kicked in the nutz", If I wanted to do that, I would have sent you a PM.

The point of the

is to get the point across that as "Sgt Joe Friday of Dragnet" use to say "Just the facts Ma'am, Just the Facts" and not have to post over and over again asking for the information.

I thought Australia was a far reach... but not experienced enough to know better. The Caribbean certainly would have been a much nicer destination.

So if I understand you correctly I do not need to make changes to my OM setup? My next mission will be a valid one? Thank you for the response and explanation.

After reading through the 70+ pages of this thread trying to find an answer before posting my questions above, I can understand where Lurker is coming from.

Many times people post the same questions over and over again when he's already answered it or said he needs specific data to answer it. So I'm not going to get all defensive over his apparent "attitude", because I deal with users every day who won't tell you what you need to help them.

I'm looking forward to his next update, whenever that might be.

Yes I understand completely, Wijbrandus... I am in state govt IT and a select group of my users can boggle the imagination with new and unexplored levels of stupidity. I can imagine what Lurker goes through... and normally am quite sympathetic... so I had an off night and spoke my mind. Don't look now but it might happen again someday.

I just figured Lurker should be basking in our admiration and feeling the love... so to speak; But Lurker is cool - I got no problem with him at all. Maybe him and I handle things differently... but such is life. Sometimes genius is like that.

Trust me... I'm looking forward to the next update too. Give em' hell, Lurker.

I was going to ask "how to revert back to stock map" But after reading this thread, I looked some more,three hours of looking I finnaly found it.
My Eyes feel like my crews before useing the EYE PATCH MOD.

Lurker, how do you find time to do everything you do, answer endless questions, and work? I mean, my god man.
I've read almost everything to do with OM, and you are always polite and very quick with answers, are there more than one of you. Do you ever take a day off and play the game you have made?

xristoskaiti · 10-24-09, 08:39 AM

I play now om 715 I was careful that the mines do not have
expolosion

I've have not made any changes to the "stock mines" for SH4 in OM. In RFB there also have been no changes to the "stock mines". So I'm not sure what your problem is.

I thank for fast answer!!! I will always do again installation with
new files . I thank for OM 715

try a quick mission on the UK´s east coast (the channel, mainly southeast England)

tell me how it goes with the mines at periscope depth (basically the only possible depth there...)

good luck, for my mines do blow!

xristoskaiti · 10-24-09, 03:26 PM

before little end the trials !!!!

when I add also OpsMonsun_V705 the mines do not work that is to say do not make expolosion....

u-boat it has small damage as when it strikes in the bottom......

I again made download a file OpsMonsun_V705......... the WinRAR archiver does not say any error in extract.... I does not know
