This is so when running on diesles and when going electric.

I searched for issues in S3d and could find nothing.

Anyone else experiencing this?

The reason for this "very old" bug ( been around since OM v301 07/2008 ) is because of an incorrect node ID that defines the left & right propellers. Specifically a missing "underscore" between the word "PROPELLER and L or R", i.e PROPELLER L should read PROPELLER_L in the .sim and .dat files. This will be fix in the next patch.

I would recommend using Captain von Keldunk mod for the time being.

P.S

I did a code review on Captain von Keldunk mod today and would recommend it to other users who use OM

To correct your problem do the following:

Download and install OM v705 Patch 1

Then go to

\My Documents\SH4\data\cfg\SaveGames\

find your last savegame that is giving you the problem

open the CareerTrack.upc file

look for these three entries

PlayerCurrentObjectiveCode=
PlayerDefaultObjectives=
PlayerCurrentObjectives=


the PlayerCurrentObjectiveCode should say Norway_T2 and both the PlayerDefaultObjectives and PlayerCurrentObjectives should both say ID1

Change PlayerCurrentObjectives=ID1 to Change PlayerCurrentObjectives=ID524

OM v705 Patch 1

1. Corrected incorrect dates for Norway objectives

2. Corrected Type Type II C/D PROPELLERS

I don't know what to tell you. It's just a text file and you should be able to edit it when the games not running.

Does your log on account have administrator privileges ?

Have you tried to open the files with notepad?
I know its a silly question but
open notepad
go to the directory where the .UPC files are
choose open (and select all files, not just .txt)

good luck

Looking forward to this one.

wonderful, excellent, insert_here_the_superlative_of_your_choice, but why, oh, why, does one have to register to download it?

Because you are downloading it off of the subsim.com host. Subsim pays for the download servers through donations and advertising. The more people are registered on the site, the more appealing the site is to potential advertisers.. seems like a fair trade for you to take 5 min to register for a free service.

[walleye]

ah, but i seem to remember downloading mods from filefront. what happened to that alternative?

and it took more than five minutes because that captcha is murder.

[Highbury]

Some modders still host on Filefront, it is really up to the person who made the file to upload it to wherever he/she chooses and provide ans many or few link as they like.

I know some only upload here because they want this site supported.
