Since FOTRS is based off TMO, those names are the various zones of the ocean. I'm not exactly sure what the names are for, but I like them. That file path in the dialog box is the location where your screenshots are placed. It is quite common for that to be there, although sometimes it may not appear.

Default how to do a new install

hi.

I know how to use multish4 pretty well as I have 4 differnet installs going TMO+RSRD, RFB, Op Monsun and a stock one. yet but I must uninstall UBM from one of those installs in order to be able to play FOTRS.

or put another way: How do I make a clean install of SH4 without first removing my games.... if I insert the SH4 DVD disk it tells me the game is already patched to 1.5 and wont allow a new clear install.

help!!!!!!!!!!!

cgjimeneza, sorry to say that you have no chance to install the mod without reinstalling SH4.

This is the negative point of the operation, the positive point is deinstalling your stock version of SH4 has no implications on your modded installations.

Deinstall Stock 1.5, install 1.0 and update to 1.4. Make a copy of clean 1.4 to your modfolder (if you like keep this clean 1.4 and take a second copy for the FOTRS Mod) and when ready update the stock game to 1.5.

If you do this you go exactly the way i did 2 month ago. There is only a stock installation in my C:\Programs\... All my Mod copies are in my C:\Games folder. And after having watched a hard working HD you will be like me the proud owner of 45 GIGABYTE Silent Hunter 4 in 2 clean installs and 7 Mod folders each round about of 5 GB. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I actually have the following installs:

a stock base 1.5 for emergency replacements
one for playing PTC VIII
one for TMO + RSRD
one for Op Monsun
one to try individual units

I know perfectly how it feels to have one HD just for SH4

Thanx for the compliments.

An small Bugfix with english named ships and some more english parts will follow soon.
This Bugfix also contents more harbourtraffic in the US-Navalbases.
Sorry that i have forget to translate some things.
Iam very busy in this time cause i got an new job where i have to work 55 hours in a week.

But i hope that you all can live another 1-2 weeks with some german parts in FOTRS until it is fixed.

Default installing FOTRS

well, I did it...

I uninstalled sh4 from the pc (that is, I removed via uninstall), erased the sh4 folder in the my documents, checked to see all removed in the registry (but I didnt touch the other copies I had stashed all over the hard disks)

rebooted, installed sh4, new reboot, made a run of the program and then I found I didnt have patch 1.4... downloaded that. installed it. once more reboot, now I made two copies of the sh4 ver1.4 folder..... ran multish4 and jgsme on them and installded FOTRS on one of them, keep the other as a clean v1.4 install.

made a quick run over pearl, looks nice.

tonight i will put UBM back in the main program files.

one other thing... all the installs copied of op mosun, tmo+rsrd etc are fully functional.... thank God.

will give FOTRS another try.. for first mission Im going to ::::::::::: and :::::::::: in ::::::::::: soory, why ruin the surprise.

CTD. in-range agent insertion Penang,Malay.

Even with surface radar off,I'm still getting radar contacts.A patrol vessel not yet in visual range appears as radar contact. Then game must close (error) Can't get within Penang visual range ? This is agent insertion mission Penang CTD. Any thoughts

Off topic Note: I could wish NAV MAP coloring could be stand alone mod

AOTD_MadMax,when you get the time investagate please.:hmm: Thought;I am getting .tga shape not found due to deleting the .dds dot files in sea/ship file.So I'm thinking,if I could ID.ship I could import correct files. Range to contact 10 NM,clear as a bell weather,no visual. I AM AWARE,there are 3 merchants,& another patrol vessel in harbor.But no radar contact when must close
