Default great

my last mission I could see the red rings, but it was still too dark to see any ships unless they shined their search lights in my direction. The green fix might help.

So go D/L the latest beta patchs and try it out.

Official release of the next version of TMO (probably ver number 1.9 when it really is done) is going to be awhile longer since ive taken to rewriting the campaign from scratch. I'm kinda excited to see how it will turn out. I think it's going to be the icing on the cake.

As an aside, when i am done with this campaign rewrite, expect to see some much larger convoys' the previous (a few with as many as 25 ships, which after some research, did happen), with a lot more escorts then before. Thats one reason i reduced the JP hydrophone range in latest patch.

Default ut oh

At his hospital bed at Midway, where he awakened after losing consiousness, he softly whispered, "There are going to be more escorts! No!"

[TEC] A Special note to all user of TMO

Operation Monsun is no longer compatible with TMO. Do not under any circumstances load OM on top to TMO v18, if you do so you will “break” Ducimus hard work

Out of curiosity, what in the 1.8 beta broke OM?

On a side note to all, the current "Official" version of TMO is 1.7. So whatever version of OM published for it, should continue to work. Im guessing issues arise when you load the TMO beta update.

Speaking of which, version 1.8 is currently a rather public beta. it is not official yet because file changes may occur rapidly at any point in time, and it's not done yet. When it is done, it will not be published as 1.8, but a different version number since many changes have occured since the original release of the beta.

It's not TMO that "breaks OM" but the other way around. There just to many difference in the various .cfg files in the CFG directory between TMO / OM and it breaks your AI changes and with the AI_Sensors ( both radar sonar and visual ). I feel it is a dis-serves to TMO users to break your work.

OM is a nice addition to TMO since with a 5 minutes work you can flood the Jap roster with nice MFM merchants that shows up (and sinks) very nicely. Sadly enough, the jap menu of stock freighters/tankers is not very long.
I have played TMO with OM v 705/715 fo nearly a week...nothing strange happened so far...No CTDs

@Duci:
The MFM units are really cool You might include some (the ones with no neutrality markings,Esso funnels etc.) in a TMO patch.
20+ freighters are not a very bad thing!

Cheers!

NOTE TO SELF, I need to delve into the extensive Documentation of the latest version of RSRDC for TMO released on 10-28-2009 to see if the new merchants were added.

MFM stands for Merchant Fleet Mod, a nice work released for sh3 and then converted to work with sh4.
Basically, it add something like 50 new merchant ships to the game.
this is the sh3 thread:

Default a first for me

It was so dark that I couldn't see my hand in front of my face. I could not get a fix on the targets, and my torpedoes all missed. I found them with my deck gun though, and sank them. I sailed back to port, all smiles. I concluded the mission. Then I saw it. I was tossed in the brig for sinking two allied ships. I was firing my deck gun and missed the messages that said, "Whose side are you on anyway?" I never made it to the Officer's Club for a celebratory beer.

Default Trigger Maru 1.8b and Ops Monsun Compatibility

Hello, Fellow Captains

It has been a while since I posted, I have seen and read concerns on Compatibility issues between Ops Monsun and TMO 1.8b, I have been a huge fan of both for a long time, and using one without the other is like a duck without a pond..... please make them stay compatible with each other..... there both fantastic modsOK....I have said my peace....now for the reality..... I have been using TMO 1.8beta with Ops Monsun 715 and RSRD 411 for months with alot of other mods as well....and have had no issues, I am an advanced user of TMO and the following mods......this is my current load order, and is functioning very well.....
the point I am trying to make is have fun with it.....experiment, if it breaks a few simple things then so be it, war is not predictable,war on the ocean was certainly not.....and I like that unpridictability, every time I go to sea, I never know how a ship will sink, or how detection will work with the AI but there in lies the suspence of being a WW2 submariner..... I am downloading the updated versions of RSRD and OPS MONSUN and will test functionality with the below setup......will see what happens !! and let you know.....Thanks to Ducimus and Lurker for there great mods.....

Quote:
WARNING

I do not look at “very possible” mod that is out there. If you load a mod up, after RSRDC or OM and JSGME generates a “conflict” warning and you go ahead and loaded it anyway and RSRDC / OM no longer works correctly, “It is NOT my problem”, so don’t ask me to fix it, because I won’t.

WARNING





Install instructions:

-----------------------------------------------------------

If your are currently on patrol, you will need to be in port to install


“WARNING”

DO NOT install PE4 2x Special Effects with OM, it will break the “ship damage model”
DO NOT install Natural Sinking Mechanics with OM.; it will break the “ship damage model”
