Those types of CTD are usually related to radio stations. Are you sure you don't have one lingering around in your activated mods folder?

Could someone please tell me what versions of RSRDC are compatible v1.4 of SHIV for both TMO and RFB and stock. I've got some people over the SHIV Forums at Ubisoft asking me about versions of RSRDC that are compatible with SHIV and the various supermods.



Ok, I've found what I needed by doing some searching. Sorry about asking what I should have found by myself.

Default RSRD Experiences

Hi - I am running V355 and patch 5...

I was reversing out of the shallow entrance to Rabul harbour at periscope depth, with a DD bearing down on me, when a friendly aircraft appeared and dropped a bomb on the DD, and sunk it - excellent!

I have never seen that happen before - have you?

Later I was patrolling around Truk, and spotted two ships at anchor, and Next Target showed they were a Fuso and Yamato. I crept in from the east at periscope depth, and positioned myself between them. I fired bow torpedoes at the Yamato, and stern at the Fuso. I hit the Fuso and sunk it, and got only one hit on the Yamato as it started to sprint away (how it can get to 17 knots in one ships length is a bit of a mystery).

I forged ahead of the Yamato to fire my remaining stern torpedoes, but when I next looked through the periscope, it had DISAPPEARED , although a blue contact line still showed on the map. No sinking showed up in the log.

Can this be explained?

Cheers

Geoff

You and your crew are entering THE TWILIGHT ZONE

I've seen the same thing happen to the Yamato at Truk, and don't know exactly what caused it. My Yamato was docked(didn't react to the torpdoes), but the torpedoes and the resulting bow down attitude made it drift forward a bit over a ship's length, where it promptly vanished. I was on the surface about six kilometers away watching the whole event, so I am certain it did not just sink or sail out of my view. This happened a long time ago, and iirc the mods used were TM 1.7.x, the relevent RSRDC version and NSM4 Classic.

I'm running RSRD 355 patch 6.

I was sent from Manila to patrol off north of Luzon, near Formosa twice in a row. Manila fell to Japs before I returned so I managed(just barely) to sail all the way to Java, my new Base. (By the Way, I didn't see any message telling me to do so)

I have now been given the Same mission, again....but no way am I going to sail all the way to that same Patrol Area north of the P.I. Is this a glitch? How do I get out of the same repeating mission? I tried just sitting outside the Java port and sending status reports hoping for a new mission, but no luck.

Sorry if this has been asked/explained before...

Ok

Require the standard “trouble shooting” info:

Start date?
Type of sub?
What command?

You won't be assigned a new mission unless you've completed the current one.

Default Wake Island: Alamo of the Pacific

Is the Battle of Wake Island included in RSRDC?

I watched the above program on the History Channel, and thought it would be fun giving the Marines on Wake a little helping hand. I couldn't find a 'Single Patrol' or other shorty-type mission in the menu, so I started a new career with the USS Triton (SS-201) [Tambor Class]. I picked the Tambor Class just 'cause I had never commanded one. Anyway, I departed Pearl on Dec. 8 and arrived in the Wake Island vicinity on the night of Dec 12, when the battle should have been going great guns. Round and round the Island I went for the next 5 days, but never saw a sign of the Japanese Fleet (or any American ships/aircraft either).

I departed Wake on the 18th, refueled at Midway, then headed for Japanese waters. I sank 4 cargo ships within the 96 hour patrol, so there are ships (i.e. targets) available. But nothing at Wake ???

I'm using:
SH4 v1.4
Trigger Maru Overhaul
RSRDC_P3_TMO_V325

Perhaps Wake was added later?

Some of my friends, who I'm pretty sure are running RSRDC also reported not seeing anything around Midway during the battle dates.

Since running RSRD and having virtually completed an entire war career I have never seen more than a single ship and zero convoy sightings. Is RSRD OVER accurate? Also, when I get a message about an IJN impending location and am able to arrive before time, and lurk, - nothing happens.

But, at the same time, I have not had a single game crash this present career.

The Battle of Wake Island is not accurately represented in RSRDC. There are some IJN units that are in the general area of Wake during the “second” attempt to invade Wake in late Dec 1941.
