Thanks.

The first: LINKS FOR MOD AND (SP):
Both references by turns.
Then - all the rest.

CaptJodan!

You have told: "My russian is poor however".
I very well understand you. Because my English is very-very poor however. SOM Group need the translator. At least for the basic part of the project.
May be - here there are people which can make it? If it is interesting, of course.

VonHesse · 01-05-10, 02:59 AM

Am I doing something wrong? I have SH4 v1.5. I downloaded both the mod and the fix and installed both with JSGME. Started the game and saw the new screen.

Looks good, very nice

... but then everything is in Russian

By guess, I start a career. Orders come in Russian except for the words "Porpise" and "Pearl Harbor". Started first patrol... to Luzon??

When I went to the navigation map it looked very different, but I could see that I was in Pearl Harbor

... then it crashed. Tried it again and got the same thing.

Not using with any other mods. Hope someone can help. Very excited to be on the Soviet side

Hello everyone,

First let me say a big thank you for your amazing job you have done until now.
The BfB-Mod is really a challange to master it.
I played the first version at its release last year.
Now I have new (better) PC for myselfe and I got a big problem I can't explain.

I have activated the following mod-order with JSMG:

Great_War_p1_Battle_For_Baltic_Ver_100
GW Baltika v1.03_path 1.3
History target Submarine GW Balt 1.03
Real Min GW Balt 1.03
Graf_mod_H_for_BfB 1.03
BFB Nomograph + Plotter
Russian Crew Voice
BFB English Campaign v2

Every time I want to start a new mission it just goes to the captain's office.
I can reequip my boat, crewmanagement, etc.
But when I try to start a mission I only get to the loading screen.
The mission loads for hours but nothing happens.
Other mods like Lurkers Operation Monsun work without any problems at all.

I tried different things up to deinstalling and reinstalling the whole game + addon an only loading the BfB mod-files from the list above. Same result. Mission doesn't load.

Any suggestions?

Btw:

How is the status of this project?
Nothing heard for a longe time.

One and a half month later. Nobody any kind of idea?
Does someone know if the SOM group is still working on this amazing piece of work?

trebby · 06-28-11, 04:32 PM

Hi moelliner,

I noticed you having same mods for baltic as me.
Difference is mine work without problems.

I do notice your order of mod activation is different...
I suggest changing the order and see.

Mine are: (working from memory, away for work no pc/sh4 acces)

1. Baltic 1.00
2. Baltika 1.03 path 1.3
3. Graf mod 1.03
4. Russian crew voice
5. History target submarine
6. Nomograph and plotter
7. english campaign

(I skipped real mine balt 1.03 because i ran into mines constantly...)

Else try with deactivating english campaign, then roll back until faulty mod is found-yes a long shot you may already have tried...

Good luck Trebb.
