How do you remove the flags from US subs in TMO 2.5, thought I liked it but decided I do not, esp the bug where they show up under water.Thought it was in TMO manual but cant seem to locate it.Thanks in advance....

I thought US subs didn't fly colors unless they were around friendly vessels or in port? I mean, you obviously can't run up the colors while submerged, and if you contact an enemy on the surface, what's the point in putting up a flag if you're going to attack them anyways?

its a decision ducimus made for TMO 2.5 and I respect it, just dont like it and there is a way to remove it.There is a bug where you can see the flag's sillhouette when submerged. |

3. Added conning tower flag to all fleet type submarines. (Models by Privateer) By default, the US flag is displayed from a flag staff on the aft end of the conning tower for all fleet type submarines, in all conning tower configurations. (early war, mid war, late war). The addition of the conning tower flag was done to allow you some options via editing the submarines cfg file. For example, the file you want to edit for the Gato is: Data\Submarine\NSS_Gato\NSS_Gato.eqp
--If you don't want a flag at all, simply comment out the first entry for [Equipment 19] by inserting a semicolon ( ; ) before each line. ------ Hope this helps!

This. Thank you renegade. As an aside, i'm well aware Fleet boats didnt fly any sort of flag or ensign while on patrol. I put the flags in, because I thought they'd make a cool addition, and give you an additional way to personalize your submarine. I wouldn't have put them in, without any means of the end user being able to change them or removing them entirely. They are enabled by default, because it's my guess the majority of the end users would end up using them anyway. It's a subsim community thing. If you look at both Sh3 and SH5, their both eager to fly a flag even though (to the best of my knowledge) Uboats also didnt fly any flag while on patrol. I see no reason why Sh4 can't engage in the same frivolities. |

I use it for exactly this, as well I have an emblem on the sub for the same reason. |

Make sure stock SH4 is patched all the way to version 1.4 (version 1.5 if you purchased the U-Boat add on). This should solve most of your issues. Your port is the one with the anchor tilted slightly to the side with the rope around it. Other friendly active ports capable of servicing your submarine will have an anchor standing straight up on it. If it does not have an anchor, then it's an enemy port, a port that is out of service, or a port that cannot service subs. If that doesn't work then check the compatibility of the mods you are running. Hope this helps. |

Whoa, I think I'm in love.
I had tried TMO eons ago, version 1.x and did not like it for reasons I cannot remember and had been using RFB since then. But RFB has not been updated in a while and I could not get Nisgeis 3d TDC to work to my liking with it, so decided to give TMO 2.5 a whirl. Well I am converted, SH4 feels like a whole new game. I love the little touches: being able to click on the planesmen to go deeper or shallower, the new intelligent sonar man who will actually call out contacts at more than point blank range and who can answer queries so you dont have to continually man the sonar yourself, the way the sub feels when it dives and surfaces, etc., etc. Great job, Ducimus.

Recover the introductory movie
Quote:
Disable the mods including Trigger Maru. Go to the mods folder for Trigger Maru 2.5: Drive letter:\Wolves of the Pacific\MODS\TMO_2-5\Data\Movies\Intro\ Delete the file "Intro.wmv-remove" Renable the mods. The original intro movie is restored. |
