Some TMO questions

[avers]

Hey guys I have 2 questions 1st whenever I go into the museum and try to look at the jap sub nothing appears what's with that? 2nd I've heard sh4 supports widescreen what do I need to have the game reseloution set to to be optimized for 1920x1080 aka 22inch monitor?

Another thing I'm playing in a porpoise class sub but I don't have the after battery compartment i thought it was in the porpoise class?

[avers]

Instead of after battery I have crew berthing is that normal?

[avers]

Another question is it normal w/ TMO plus RSRDC to patrol for a long time w/ nothing happening?

Even If your patrolling of the ryukus in late December 1941 cause that's where I've been patrolling for a bit and I haven't had a single contact again is that normal?

Really no traffic in the direct area there, cept for some singles. Get down in the Luzon, just south of Formosa.

Way I play RSRD, early way I attack the invasion groups hitting the Philippines, such as Lingayen Gulf. They're several that hit, just choosing one, some hit Aparri, others hit a tad north of the San Bern. When you lose Manila and end up at Surabaya, get ready for the massive invasion of Java in late Feb. several large invasion groups 30 plus ships, one over 50. Then I go for battles near the Solomons through 42, hang around Truk/Home waters shipping lanes in 43. The best shipping lanes late war come through Formosa Strait...

Hey thanx yeah it is working but another question just earlier I had to use my own sonar manually because there was a studder which means ships loaded and I used the sonar and I had to use it because it was the 10,000 yard ultrasonic sonar I was using it on the surface and the ship I heard was at 13 Nm so my sonar guy wasn't reporting it (he only here ships In the real life range of 10,000 yards) in the information box in the top left corner was saying ship type unknown I hit the send bearing to tdc and the sonar guy said merchant so I tried to close the range and get ahead moving at flank which makes allot of wake but when I got with in 9,000 yards of him my sonar guy said warship. Anyway why did he say merchant when I was on the sonar and then warship when he got within real life range of the ultra sonic sonar?

[avers]

At the end of that post I meant to say "when we got within real life range" just in case u get confused

172 words. Two punctuation marks.
Really?

Probably because he didn't know what you were listening to and had to write something down in the notepad. The game does some weird things sometimes. Almost as though it was released half-finished.

[avers]

Thanx and sorry about my punctuation. Another question in TMO+RSRDC do u still get the merchant spotted or warship spotted on the game when u spot an enemy merchant or warship?

[avers]

Cause I haven't been getting pop ups when my men spot stuff.

[avers]

Let me rephrase, whenever my men spot an enemy ship (shofar it's all destroyers) I haven't been getting the pop up saying warship spotted and then there's 3 options, engage target, maintain current orders and dive to periscope deph. The point is that I haven't been getting those pop ups. Shouldn't I be getting them?
