[REL] Trigger Maru Overhauled Update BH

[StickMasterSteven]

Not sure what y'alls experiences have been like but I really enjoy the mod...

...if I wouldn't keep getting CTD's every now and then. I got a mission about photo recon in a Korean port and every time I cross into the 'Abuse' area of the map my game consistently crashes. I've had CTD's before but got around them but this is the only consistent one I've come across. If anyone has any advice I'll gladly listen.

I've run LAA and set that up properly but I can't really think of anything else that would cause this.

edit: Ok I've gotten it to work by taking it easy on the TC and taking a slightly different route. Now I'm having trouble completing the photo recon objective. There's a pair of Jap flattops moored and I locked them up on the scope and snapped pictures of both of them but the objective is still not completing.

Ok, what with the mission objective... what, is the exact wording of it... does it mention to just snap photog's... or does it state specifically, a certain class or type of ship/s to take photog's of...???

In the port, you're supposed to visit & snap the photog's in... is there, other ships there.... other than just the IJN flat tops that you noted in your post.???

Is possible that with photographing... that you haven't snapped enough f them, to hit that completion bell for the objective & snapping pics of everything you can lock on to... might be called for.

With the accrued points to finish the obj., unknown... (the points awarded for each successful photog taken, that is...) could be you need more than just the photo's you got on the flat tops, it sounds like. May need to keep snapping pics, until you get that all complete message via the message clipboard.

For Bubblehead1980 to be able to allow for a more... definitive answer on that, would need to know just what port it is that you got drawn to go to, what the date is, that those orders were received. Add to that, what base are you operating out of as well as what sub you're commanding.

That info will prove useful for them to, then review them & give you a more... clearer, defined answer to that.

Hope this info helps...

Glad you are enjoying the mod.

I have not had CTD issues on my end, did rather extensive testing but it can happen since specs used by different players vary. What I can say is there are possible legacy(TMO was created by another modder, who is no longer active in community) TMO issues with some of the special missions, such as photo recon. I was not able to correct the patrol objectives in TMO Update for the initial release, but these are being upgraded etc. in the TMO Update.


If you will provide specific date, time, location, patrol objective, class of submarine you are using, homeport and your mods list, will help me narrow it down. I will head to area Abuse as well to see if can get a CTD but patrolled there recently and had no issues.

Date: 21 March 1943
Time: 1435
Location: Dalian Harbor (China)
Patrol obj: "Photo recon of carrier force in Dalian"
Sub class: Gar
Homeport: Midway
Modlist: sh4_modlist.jpg

I should also note that I took photos of each ship moored near the carriers since the obj. states "carrier force" and not just the carriers themselves, but to no avail.

If you haven't returned to base... should be possible to gather info from... (located in your games save folder.. under \data\cfg\SaveGames\ located in the named save folder for that mod set up you have. For Me, have Mine, using MultiSH4 listed as TMO there in the documents section. If you're still out on patrol on that objective.. that should be the last listed ID there in the
"careertrack.upc" file, located in the very last folder in the
SaveGames\ folder there.. I believe that would be the file you'll need to "crack open" with notepad, to look at... if I'm not... mistaken. )

Info you'd need to cull (in other words, copy & then paste here in a reply post back... ) found below in Example. (minus the " marks, of course... )

"Example:

PlayerCurrentObjectiveCode=Luzon Strait
PlayerDefaultObjectives=ID94
PlayerCurrentObjectives=ID98
PatrolStartDateTime=1941-12-09 13:00:00"

Not the one you'd see, of course... just used to give you, an idea of what to look for in that particular file.

Armed with that info, will give Bubblehead the needed info to know more... precisely where to look.

I had nothing to do with the map. The map is from the Nav Map Makeover by Nbjackso
