returning player swtiching from CD to Steam version

Major SNAFU · 07-31-24, 08:36 PM

Hi all,

It has been a long time, but I am back and in the interim I purchased the steam versions even thought I still have the CDs.

Anyway, I am pretty sure I was running TMO back in the day, and I am wondering if JSME works the same for Steam installs as it did for CD-based installs.

Also, I initially had an issue where the game on max settings would launch and run fine so long as I didn't try to access any view that included the world outside of the the sub (binos, periscope, etc.) This would instantly crash the game (vanilla). I enabled all of the compatability for XP SP2, etc. and set the graphics to medium and then I could get by, but still with crashes when switching views - but seemingly random.

I have read about some memory address mod - but I have located it yet, but it seems like this resolves many crashing issues on newer machines.

I am intrigued by the FORS mod, but TMO was great and I think I will return to that first and then maybe switch over.

If someone would kindly point me to the memory mod and address the JSME question about Steam installs, I would be much obliged.

Thanks,
