Curious periscope issue

Archer7seven · 06-09-13, 08:11 PM

RUnning SH 4 1.5 with UBM add on and FOTRS mod.

Mod looks great, but I am experiencing two issues. I can get to the periscope, but I can't raise it, whether with keyboard assignments or by clicking the appropriate in game button.

Also, the periscope in the control room keeps raising, resets to lowered and then raises again, but this is not shown outside of the hull.

And come to think of it, what's with the disappearing Narwahl conning tower.

Thank you ...

Don't forget you have two periscopes, an attack periscope intended to be used... well, during an attack obviously (as it has a smaller head) and a watch periscope, with a larger head that allows a clearer picture of what is going on (and, as I recall it, the ability to pan up and down). Could it be possible that you are raising one of them and but accessing the other one?

This sounds more like a bug to me.

I've had this one before (with We Dive at Dawn), there's some kind of mod conflict. F.O.T.R.S. will work fine on a clean install - enable other mods singly to find the culprit. From what I've read here, Atlantic Theater mods also don't usually coexist well with Pacific mods.
