On the US side, you look to the left and click on the wooden radio console, and get a very similar Options menu, and choose the same Gameplay Settings, which do default to "No external view" being turned on. Clear that and Apply Changes, confirm, and then exit the menu and go on patrol. The German office has the Options menu in the 4 drawer file cabinet by the Exit door...
That's got to be what happened! Thank you - I did not know that.

TC should be limited to no higher than 1024 or some unexpected things can happen and none of them are good for play.
I head read about high TC elsewhere - glad to have it confirmed. I was still in port so no TC had happened yet. However, I will limit it to 1024 - thank you.

This is really too bad. There are some utilities I was going to try to use but since I only have 1 monitor it would require Alt+Tab to access the external utilities .

I guess I won't be trying those for now.

Thank you - I had read up on FOTRSU prior to trying it and I came across the stuff about Large Address Aware. I did use LAA on SH4.exe prior to starting play so that should be taken care of.

Thanks very much all of you for helping.
