The reason I can't remember was because my campaign ended that day when that single DD came on the scene, over 3 miles away and it still found me even though I was 100ft below the thermal layer. A couple of other things to mention in this new campaign that I've started. It seems as if our naval intelligence has been infiltrated by those crafty Japanese. Some of these bloody messages infesting my message box needs to be eradicated, I don't want to know that Commander Pugwash has sunk a bleedin crab boat, its rather annoying, just like those Fox News messages are too.

I applied the correcting patch and anchors over bases appeared.Of course I started again from port.
Something else: I don't know if I'm wrong but I had the impression that photo recon and spy insertion missions are unrealistic and without any logic so they would be removed from the mod but I see they're included again.Is this intended? |

2. Wow! This is an echo of FOTRS 1.2's infamous Rockin' Asashios! I entered a harbor full of them and made this video back in the day: Great catch!

The radar still drops you to 1x leaving port EVEN WHEN THE RADAR IS OFF! That's annoying, a stock defect but we need to look at it and find out why the radar still stops the boat (okay it stops time but ....) when we're not feeding it any electrons. To everyone finding these charming bugs we're issuing half off coupons for the next beta version.

[QUOTE=J0313;2450274]Okay, started career in middle 43 from Brisbane. Supply run to New Britain. There is no sound when I am at the hydrophones. I get the light but I cant even hear my own props. I don't know if this was on purpose but when you secure from battle stations you get no Boatswaines pipe. Im okay with that because it was annoying. When sounding GQ the uboat bell rings. I also noticed that the radar depth hot button also says decks awash. Is this for uboats? I am just not used to it saying that. Very nice addition. And last but not least I am not getting any up or down scope noise.
I also have a question. What is the method to drop the supplies. I don't remember. Does anyone have anything to say about what I posted? |

Should appear a window: drop the boat. I have a question for devs: since older version of tmo worked with it, it s possible use spyron mod with fotrs?

No, we have too many more ships. The developer of Spyron Mod has forbidden us to use any of his work with FOTRS Ultimate.

Hi there. If it weren't for propbeanie, nobody would be playing FOTRS Ultimate right now because I would have left all of you homeless! Thank you J0313 for your Brisbane report. I redownloaded the mod from the Subsim download site and shazaam! No bases.
The new file's name will be 105_FalloftheRisingSun_Ultimate_v0.40_PublicBeta_E N and it will replace the former version which has temporarily been removed. Those of you using the old version with propbeanie's patch can continue running that way. The new upload is simply the old version including the patch. I physically deleted the no bases model and replaced it with the bases model that I was currently running. Something obviously went wrong with the process. Please wait until I have uploaded, downloaded and verified before downloading the mod again. I need a drink.

Just a quick update on the campaign files for Japanese Task Forces. I've found that its just a matter of changing the unit types it seems. I've got '43a Jap Task Force error free in the ME now. I will complete the others I've mentioned by tomorrow.

Okay. I deleted the underlying file in the download area of Subsim. I made a new file beginning with 105 instead of 100 and verified it worked properly, zipped it and uploaded to the Subsim download area. Then I deleted my local mod in the game, redownloaded from Subsim to confirm that it worked right. It did.
Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate v0.40 PublicBeta is now open for business! Again, if you are playing with the old version plus propbeanie's patch you don't need to do anything. If you have no bases you can download the new version or install propbeanie's patch and you'll not be homeless any longer! Welcome home everybody!

Provisional roadmap for the future. This is subject to further feedback we get from all you poor victims of the defects of a giant economy sized one size fits all Silent Hunter Supermod: FOTRS Ultimate. I'm quoting from a PM.
Quote: Originally Posted by cdrsubron7 I keep running into the Japanese Task Forces that cause CTDs.

Maybe Rick could be so kind and give me some tips as to what to do to correct these mission files. I'm on vacation this coming week so it would be a good time to try. I'm open to suggestions. Jeff Hmmmmmm. Seems like an echo from that Florida Sailor guy saying stuff wasn't right in Peoria. Rick has mentioned splitting up the work on these. Why don't you three get together with this and Florida Sailor's list to see what you can do. I'd like the Aleutians campaign debugged and together those would make up v0.45--Campaign Collusion. After campaigns are taken care of looks like we need to look at the submarine handling (I doubt we need to mess with it. I want to compare acceleration times, turning speeds, dive speeds, etc with TMO 2.5) Then fine-tuning enemy AI is in order to beef up the thermal layer and tone down the listening capability of the DDs. Missing textures need fixing. And the excess messages and possibly the radar working with no electrons. But lets do nothing but campaign scrubbing for the next version!

Are you working with the 4 GB patch applied to SH4.exe? Do you have 64-bit Windows? Is your desktop shortcut pointing to SH4.exe, NOT gu.exe? Failure to have any of the three can cause you to have problems running anything as big as FOTRS Ultimate. We're pushing the envelope here.

CTD - it's not just a job

To ArditoCorsaro and anyone else interested, I got three Patrol Attu Missions in a row, and now I've gotten two differnt Patrol Kiska, so there is some variety. Not a lot, but some. I'm trying to get one of either the photo recon or insertion missions, to see how tough they're going to be. I'm pretty sure the ones for Attu aren't going to be easy, but the Adak ones should be OK, if they play...
