Am I just missing something here?

EDIT: I feel silly now. I just realized there was a patch out for OM720... Could that be the problem?

EDIT2: Looking at the patchnotes, unlikely.

One question... Will the patch break savegames?

(original post below)
---------------------------------------------------

Ah, quite sorry.

The date is February 17, 1944, though I got the Turmumbau III after my 6th patrol, which finished on January 30th.

Stationed in Hammerfest, Norway (11th flotilla).

Currently in U-456, a type VIIC.

Mods:

RSRDC
OpsMonsun_V705
OMv705_to_720

And that's it.

Here's what it looked like before:




And after:




Note that, interestingly, while I can't use radar after the new turmumbau, I CAN use the deck gun I had placed there earlier, even if it doesn't show on the equipment page.

Go to c:\Documents and Settings\xxxx\My Documents\SH4\data\cfg\

zip up the SaveGames directory and then uploaded it to FileFront and I will see what I can do

There you go.

Before you posted, I only left two relevant savegames. One is after the 6th patrol (on february 17th), the other is before it (on january 2, I think). If you don't speak French, "avant" means "before" and "après" means "after".

Thanks a lot for your help!

I have your files and will start an evaluation shortly. Have conducted a "system test" and have confirmed that the original fix for this problem is in place and working correctly.


Also what version of RSRDC are you running ?

The periscopes will only maintain "auto lock" on targets that are less than 4000 meters.

If you are going to play German side "only" you do not need RSRDC

Just checked... v550, according to the file.

So I would need this patch, correct?

Can I just install on top of OM, or do I need to remove MO705 and 705 to 720 before patching?

Thanks!

You can install over OM.

FYI, I'm seeing some "odd" things in you save files. Did you try to hand edit any of your saved files ?

Your requests are unclear, Please write in you "native" language.

Nope.

Hmm. I've had problems with my HD in the past, is it a corrupted file problem?

Based on code review, your last save has been corrupted by data from the Narwhal Class Sub from RSRDC. It is unclear how this problem developed and to "fix" it would require some "serious" edits to some of your save games files. I'm sorry to say that this career is unplayable.

[A. Smith]

Huh. Weird. I might try playing from the save before the bug and see what happens.

Thanks for the review!
