I may have discovered the cause of my CTDs. Before I used LAA or 4GB patch, I forgot that I had to turn the read only comment off on the exe file.

Anyway once I try another patrol we'll see.

Had an interesting event happen. On my way to Convoy College just NW of Lingayen Gulf, cruising on the surface, lookouts reported A/C behind me. Started crash dive, and using external view, I saw a line of about 20 Betty Bombers flying in trail being led by a single Zero and they were close. Started zig zag while trying to dive. Nautilus is a diving PIG! About 5 or 6 bombs landed right behind and beside me with no damage done. Then for about an hour 3 flights of 6 Zeros came and dropped bombs but only killed fish as I was about 2 miles from where I went under.

I've never seen that many bombers before let alone in trail. Must have just finished bombing Manila.

Passed this dude on my way to Convoy College. 1st time I've seen a Fleet Boat when playing.
