I guessed that. Thanks for the confirmation Lurker. Could you point me in the direction of more info like that. There are a lot of readmes that come with the mods but I did not find a file with a manual or something like that. Maybe it's in the first post and I did not see it?

btw. it's a great mod!

Did you install SH4 U-boat Mission Pack? Try to find out more for this game, OMEGU_v300 and others.

Default Problems with setting up for "VII"

Hi up...

OpsMonsun_V705
OMv_705_to_720
OMEGU_v300
OMEGU_v300_Patch2
OM_Harder_Escort_L1

I have a problem with setting up for torpedos tubes. In VII is only 5 tubes... and have a look on this screen...
Switch on II and III backlit third and fourth


Switch on I and IV backlit first and second


Here is okay.


In IX is everything okay.

I deiced to give myself a little variety while playing one campaign and started another with the XXI as I've never really played with this uboat. On my first patrol I've been running into a good amount of PBYs with the MAD gear, no surprise there, but was wondering what, if anything, I can do to help my crew make it through these attacks. I've read through the thread/posts here again about this but saw no responses to the max depth for them (I'm assuming there isn't based on one post about detecting things on the floor) and was wondering if there are any "proven" techniques in-game to help avoid damage from them. I've dove down past 500' and have set various speeds and try to change course now and then but still seem to take damage. Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks.

Remove OMEGU, but I don't think you want to do that

That´s why i gave up on playing after 1943!
It´s kind of pointless playing a 1945 tour with a XXII crusing submerged in 200 meters and getting attacked by Catalinas all the time.

Actualy you can, but you'll have to photoshop a bit:

\Data\Menu\Karamazov\Torp_Metal_Panel.tga

and

\Data\Menu\Karamazov\TDC_Metal_Panel.tga

I don't know german either but I wanted to preserve the authentic feel:

Gegnerfahrt = Target Speed
Auftreff-W = Track Angle
Gegnerlage = Target AOB
Peilung = Bearing
Enfernung = Range

Tiefe = Torpedo Depth
T-Geschw = Torpedo Speed
Pistole = Torpedo Detonator
Einzelshuss = Single Selector
Salvenshuss = Salvo selector...

I'll make a small patch next week (the salvo selctor for VII seems wrong and there's a label missing for the Straight run dial) and post an english version too. Have fun till then.

BTW, roman?

I hear you! I'm starting to loose my patience a little... I wanted to try this sub out as it's a pretty neat design and sounded like it'd be fun to play with but with the deadly accuracy of those PBYs (is this even slightly realistic for them to manually gauge when they should drop to hit a sub 500'+ down traveling 3 knots taking into account water friction and speed of the depth charge in order to consistently hit my engine room?!) every single day it's just not as "fun" as I thought it would be. Yes, I know it was tough going in the last years of the war but for this sub in this way? I'm just a little skeptical I guess.

Ok,

make the following "changes" so you don't have to worry about the "MAD" anymore

go to Data\Air\ALBS_CATMKVI\
open .sns file with wordpad

change

[Sensor 2]
NodeName=O01
LinkName=MAD
StartDate=19440201
EndDate=19451231


to


[Sensor 2]
NodeName=O01
LinkName=AirB_Visual
StartDate=19440201
EndDate=19451231


do the same to Data\Air\ALBS_PBY5A\
