Just a FYI as there may be a problem at Truk.
Approaching eastbound August 14, 1943 17:25. Radarcontact! Boat 70 km east of the island group. Detected ship some 30 km SW. Then CTD... After reboot another try. No problem this time? (got her btw.). Laid a course around Truk Island 30 km off shore for a radar scan of what may be there... August 15, 1943 03:37, 7d45'N 151d55'E and tracking two pairs of destroyers. CTD again. Didn't wanna challenge it further. Loadet a previous save and went S according to new orders. No problem since, so something could be happening at Truk? Running RSRDC_v355_for_v15 and RSRDC_v355_Patch 8. Had a very long patrol. From Midland to Marshall Islands, then Gilbert Islands and back to Marshalls. Very exiting! Went to the advanced base at Solomon Islands for fish and fuel. Ordered to Bismarck Sea and then to Truk, which we now are leaving as ordered to the Palau-Rabual shipping lanes... Excellent put together! ![]() Other mods used: My Fleet Sub - USS Silversides (all Gato settings and textures) My Fleet Sub - Settings (menu, commands, gameplay etc.) My Fleet Sub - Graphics (scene, clouds, shaders and textures) None of these are campaign related and these CTD's are the first ever experienced. Normally things runs steady as a rock, hence this post. And Thanks for the Mod! ![]() Btw. we very, very rarely see an airplane? Did you tone them down? and do you have a suggestion if we would like to see more planes? ![]() |

i was running TMO162 + RSRD, sept 1942. Tambor class. (I think, happened last sunday)
got a report of multiple convoys and IJN units moving on a N-S axis, some 150 km west of truk (again from memory) found two sampans and engaged with gun, no time to circle around them. after sinking, I moved to plot to check my posit and insert point to ambush the multiple Ultras and went to the bridge to see the sampan sink... CTD. Tried new campaing, same boat class, same start date (but removed RSRD) had no CTD, only a high failure rate on torps (to be expected), on the same approach and patrolling structure I got maru no. 1 east of Truk and the Comte Verde and maru no.2 west of Truk, spending all 20 mk-14, On this last convoy I made 3 attacks during 18 hrs and they had a 3 DD escort, got a first hit on the bows of the Comte verde and on the 2 attacks two hits MOT for contact. After sinking the last maru, I broke off from the escort, the DD didnt hear me at all. Right now Im on my way to Johnston Island to refuel refit and back to the Carolines. maybe a problem with Truk Atoll. Quote:

This is a copy of a post in the Kill Flags sticky thread that my alert to a problem with the RFB instructions re SH4 1.5 and the RSRDC mods.
"As you know, I installed the mods recommended by RFB, and ended up with my handle and boat not being recognized at the beginning of a mission, although the emblem and boat number appeared on the sub. Also, I could not load sailors to man the guns, and there were no deck guns. I found the solution to the deck guns' problem (i.e. no deck guns) and the failure of RFB to recognize and my boat at the outset of new missions in SH4 1.5. The RFB Team recommends the following mods be activated in SH4 1.5: 1. RFB_V1.52_102408; 2. RFB_V1.52_Patch_18Jan09; 3. RSRDC_SH15_V400; and 4. RSRDC_V400_Patch 2 I also activated the following mods: 5. SS205 USS Gar_ComboFooskin_I'm Goin' Down; and 6. Mini_ChronoTools (activated by JTex). As a result of the foregoing, which followed the RFB sticky thread's instruction, I ended up with the unacceptable results described above. I filed a complaint in the RFB thread. I was about the do the same in the RSRDC thread when I noticed that RFB does not mention activating mods RSRDC_SH15_V400 and RSRDC_V400_Patch2. Instead, it recommends activating the RSRDC_RFB1.5_V420 and RSRC_V420_Patch_18Jan09 with RFB v1.52 mods. I deactivated mods nos. 3 and 4 above and replaced them with the two mods recommended by RSRDC. Guess what? I NOW HAVE TWO DECK GUNS!!! However, the SH4 1.5 did not recognize my handle and boat at the beginning of a mission, so I deactivated mod 5. SS205 USS Gar_ComboFooskin_I'm Goin' Down and reactivated it. Now RFB recognizes me as captain at the outset. Problems fixed after four days! I plan to post this in both the RFB and RSRDC mod threads to alert them to the issue." |

They must have the removed the links to RSRDC downloads from RFB. I complained about the downloads on Sunday, before I figured out the RSRDC links were for different downloads. The problem for me began on Thursday at 1700 hrs., and I assume that you had the correct links posted prior to that time.
