Ouch, made a mistake and went from a 45 american career directly to a 43 OM career, thinking the difficulty would be similar or at least not too much higher....


I was sunk 4 times in a row right after leaving the Harbour (Lorient) before I could eventually adapt to the higher difficulty
Love the Mod, great work guys!

Lurker...In another thread I brought up the situation I have regarding ctd while harbor raiding, and you asked for information. I will try to get it to you, but what do you need to know? Besides I see raiding as kind of cheating in the first place and only did it to check things out.

Port of Merthyr? In the Bristol kanal, Oct. 1940.
Scappa Flow, any time, once I get within 15,000 meters, or just in view of the repulse sitting there, it crashes.

Like I said though, no big deal to me at all. Most of my time is at sea and olny wanted to see what was a dock.

Thanks for all your work, best improvement to the game so far that I have seen.

Me too, had a long RFB career which towards the end started to bore me because they kept sending me to areas with little or no activity. I sunk a carpload of merchants of course and ducked a plane or two, but there were no warships whatsoever after late 1941 or so anywhere I was patrolling at least! I believe this is realistic since I had RSRDC installed - and there're areas like the Slot with lots more activity there too - but operating out of Fremantle in a Gato still got a bit too tranquil to my liking.

Enter OM however, and I'm sweating bullets already in 9 / 39. Currently patrolling sectors AN79 / 87 in a duck U-9, and hell, these waters surely are lively even now! Came within a hair's breadth of being sunk by an ASW plane first, and then ran into a bunch of armed trawlers immediately afterwards Verdammt, what's a Kaleun to do in order to survive I just ask

PS. Got the American career zipped & safely tucked away however, because the fleetboats still fascinate me and I'll surely go back to them at some point. Variety, as they say, being the spice of life and everything...

msalama, I felt exactly the same. The Pacific in the US career was empty and void, never encountered one bigger warship, only minelayers and tiny armed tugs. A lone Momi mini-destroyer was all that I ever managed to find on the seas. The only exception from all that was the Truk harbour (some mods add it), I found a giant anchored fleet there and later a lone carrier. Still, the sea was almost completely "civilian", imagine how astonished I was when I saw and sank a german Type-9 in the East China sea in early 45. Played with RFB, later GFO, then TMO, all with RSRD. I never heard 1(!) sonar-ping during the whole 4 years....

All those videos, reports and talk about giant Navy battles.. made me wonder if I was in the same ocean as them

Not my experience....the fleet boats are awesome and RFB and TMO give a really 100% PTO experience. To each his own.

Well, the most action I saw was in an S-class boat immediately after Pearl Harbour, and after that nothing much at all, apart from a couple of planes and a huge amount of unescorted freighters. I don't know, things could've been different had I shown more initiative and actively hunted for those warships outside my assigned patrol areas, but this would've meant long patrols I really don't feel like doing at the moment. Ergo, skippering a German duck for two (game) weeks a pop is just the thing for me now

But as I said I definitely _will_ return to the fleetboats at some point and continue the career I shelved, possibly transferring to Midway first to see how things look from there...

Download and install OMEGU or OM Plot. Either one will correct your problem.

unexpected career CDT

dear fellow simmers,
i need help addressing a quite urgent issue i'm having recently. during a long and for now successful mission, after saving, i ctd for the first time evar after installing OM (>v720). when restarting, a matrose start screaming utterly annoying advices about TORPEDOES being launched (at least 10 times) then i cdt again.
mission and quick combat are OK. just career csdt, even if i tried the last 2 savegames i did (other one is like ONE HOUR older, and would be a definitive setback)


did this issue pop up before?

thank to everybody for such a wonderful mod. started from sept 1939.

PS:installing the new OM over mine'd implicate no further use of my savegames?

Not sure what you mean about the NEW OM. The v720 update for OM 705 has been up for more than a month.
Updates to Mega Mods require you to be in port when installing. Did you enable v720 during a patrol? In that case I strongly recommend you restart the patrol from port. In some extreme cases mods require a new career, but this isn't the case with OM v720 (or OMEGU).


By the way, I have a question. I can't repair on the sea floor. If the sub is intact I can settle on the seabed without taking damage. But if I have already taken water, the sub takes damage from minute to minute and the crew are injured. This prevents me from repairing the affected bulkhead and results in a loooong death. Is this normal? So far it has happened with early models of II's and VII's. I've tested this in very shallow water smashing the sub with crash dives. As long as I don't take water it's fine. As soon as I have flooding the drama begins.

That may be a side effect of the damage model. I'll look into it

darn. gotta kind confused with TMO. still i'm worried for a potential update. anyway i restarted from the previous (1hr bef) save but i still got problem so i think reinstall is on His way.

about your problem, if the damage exceed 100% (red bar in damage control) you're a bit fkd. put those parts (aka the very hull) on top repair priority. if you already knew this and you have prolonged death only by dropping on the seafllor, then i have no idea...sorry
