=========================================

OM recreates the initial deployment of Uboats from German (Kiel) to forward bases in France and Norway.

The start dates for BdU deployment to France are:

September 1st 1940, December 1st 1940 , February 1st 1941, July 1st 1941, December 25th 1941, March 1st 1942, June 1st 1942, October 1st 1942, January 1st 1943, April 1st 1943, August 15th 1943, October 1st 1943, February 1st 1944

The start dates for BdU deployment to Norway are:

September 15 1941, February 1st 1942, July 1st 1942, October 1st 1942, April 1st 1943, August 15th 1943, February 1st 1944

Once you have selected one of these start dates, you will be then to select a either Type VII or IX, and next to each Uboat Type you will see the Flotilla that you're going to be assigned to. Once the deployment mission starts you will automatically be transferred to your new Flotilla / base within five days of mission start (watch for the anchor icon to change).


Intelligence

In the Support/OM Intel Files directory/folder, you will find BdU Grid Maps for the IO / North Atlantic and Black Sea. You will also find addition Intelligence documents that support operations in the IO.

Know problems & issues

1.Because of a design feature that prevents ships from spawning within 20km of ownship, stay clear of all major US/UK ports.

2. WARNING if you decide to start a campaign in port your system is going to take a major FPS hit. Strongly recommend that you start at sea vice in port

3.When using the snorkel on a U-boat, CO2 will continue to build up and you will have to surface from time to time to refresh your oxygen supply. Also SH4 does not use the "submerged range" from the .sim file, there fore the Type XXI/XXIII historical underwater range can not be correctly generated.

4. One of the problems with stock SH4 is the way it treats the detection of neutral shipping (i.e. it basically ignores them). This behavior became unacceptable from a gameplay point of view during the development of the early war combat operations. Therefore there are no neutrals in OM. It will be up to the player to determine if a ship needs to be engaged or not. During the early phases of the war these normally neutral ships will remain unarmed. Also from review of the records, Uboat captains sunk supposed neutrals during their early combat patrols

5.Have created within the limitations of SH4 game engine a semi-historically recreation of the shipping / convoy lanes used during WWII. In reference to the convoys, in RSRDC, I was able to recreate with historically accuracies 1055 convoys from 1942 to 1945, however with over 3100 + convoys with 80000 + ships it is not possible to do the same in OM. Therefore all the major / minor convoys have been generically recreated with a correct average makeup of merchants and escort for the different time periods.

6. WARNING

When you return to port your sub "WILL NOT" have it's torpedo's auto reloaded.
You will have to load the torpedo yourself. This is to ensure that the "wrong" torpedoes are "not" loaded on your sub.

7. There are certain files I don't change because of mod compatibility. One of those files is command.cfg which controls the snorkel. You can make the following changes in the command.cfg to toggle the snorkel

[Cmd158]
Name=Toggle_snorkel
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x58,s,"SHIFT X"

special Note: This step is not required if you load OMEGU or OM Plot


8.If you are installing OM on a stock system and desire to have a Nomograph on your Nav Chart do the following:

Go to Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\Data\Menu
Make a backup copy of menu_1024_768.ini
Open menu_1024_768.ini with notepad
Go to the bottom of the file
Add the following

[G31 I60]
Name=Nomograph
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x3100000f
ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=0,0,168,672
Zone=0 768 168 672 2 1 0x31000000 0.8 -0.015 0x3100000f 0 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/nomograph.tga
MatFlags=0x9
TexFmt=0x0

special Note: This step is not required if you load OMEGU or OM Plot


9.Conning Towers / Turms

Unlike SH3, Turmumbau (Conning Towers) cannot be upgraded manually, but are coded to upgrade on certain dates within the *.upcge files. The only U-boats that are programmed for this upgrade are the Type VIIC, Type IXB and Type IXC. This is the schedule for the different subs

Type VIIC

Turmumbau I - 1940-07-30 to 1942-06-15
Turmumbau II - 1942-06-16 to 1943-12-10
Turmumbau III- 1943-12-11 to 1945-05-15

Type IXB

Turmumbau I - 1939-07-30 to 1942-08-18
Turmumbau II - 1942-08-19 to 1945-05-15

Type IXC

Turmumbau I - 1941-01-02 to 1943-02-15
Turmumbau III - 1943-02-16 to 1945-05-15

However you will have to earn this upgrade, there is a condition where you have to have had at least one patrol that was considered a good patrol. IE, earn more renown then the minimum on the first patrol rating. Just so ever one understands, besides completing the primary objective of patrolling a defined area for the proscribed time, there is a hidden objective that requires you to sink any where from 1000 to 10000 tons pre patrol. So remember this, ever time you report in and get a new assignment you get another hidden objective in it.

10. KM Grids: As the locations of the objectives in the OM campaign aren't 100% accurate either, in about 1/3 of the missions the objective location isn't in the right grid (although they are never far apart).

The grid is only really inaccurate in weirdly shaped grids, which are AM, AN and AO, and small sections of AD, AJ, AK, BF and CH. All other grids are pretty much on the correct location.

12.SMA Mine deployment. Since it is not possible for me to recreate the launching of the SMA Mines from the mine tubes in the center of the Type VIID, you will be launching them trough the aft torpedo tubes. The .sim file for the Type VIID as been modified to support 15 SMA mines and to launch and reload them ever 15 seconds. You will find that you have one already loaded in the aft tube plus 10 in ready reserve, with the remaining 4 in the external storage. To launch do the following:

A. set ships speed to 4 knots
B. go to Attack Map
C. select tube 5
D. select manual TDC input
E.set bearing to 180
F. set desired mine depth
G. launch mine with fire button
H. next mine will be ready to launch in about 15 seconds

There is a more detailed set of instructions in the X:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\Support\OM_Readme_files, look for SMA Mine Deployment.doc

WARNING

Do not load SMA mines in Uboats other than Type VIID
Do not load SMA mines in the forward tubes of any Uboat
Do not load torpedoes in the aft tubes of a Type VIID

13. Crew Management

You will note the crew berthing and slots in the conning tower. These slots have been introduced as part of the new submarine damage model system introduced in OM and as a workaround to the way SH4 models crew damage. In essence, when a bridge watch crewman is off-duty, he does not leave the bridge; rather, the game just treats him as an inactive crewman still physically located on the bridge. This applies to both surfaced and submerged travel. Thus, to avoid exposing the bridge watch to injuries caused by depth charge explosions, you need to move your enlisted bridge crewmen to crew berthing and the officers to the conning tower.

14. Do not attempt to enter the museum. Due to the large number ships added by OM, SH4 will CTD
