I just got back in the SH4 after a few years away. I have it loaded on my laptop for over 10 years and have played it with TMO since it came out.
I know have a super nice desktop that I decided to load it on. I tired Fall of the Rising Sun but could never get past the CTD I was constantly getting when starting the campaign missions from outside the base so I moved back to TMO Update BH and so far so good. I took all the add on mods in TMO and installed them as well. It took me a few adjustments to make it happy but all seems well so far. I’d do have a few questions on somethings I remember that I’m not seeing 1. Wasn’t there a mod that installed the historic shipping lanes for the pacific ? 2. I thought I remembered in the map when you zoomed in close enough to your boat you got a circle with marked distances in 100 yard increments. Was that removed. 3. Is there any fix if running 4k to make the gauges, dials, buttons, etc… bigger to be readable or is it best to just go back to 1980 setting Also, I was a member a long time back but no longer had the email to get my old sign in back so that’s why I have a new name……was ASO544 Thanks !!! |

Anyone got tips to prevent CTDs in this mod? They seem to happen somewhat randomly, whether im on the Navmap at high time compression or just evading some DDs after attacking a convoy at 1x time compression.
SH4:Uboat Missions is installed outside of program files and I've used LAA to allow the program to use more memory. Thanks |

Yes, it is off. I play at 100% realism so event cam, external cam etc are all off. Thanks for your help though!

Is this a bug?
I play with TMO Update BH V2.0 +OTC for TMO 2.5 .
Started prewar S18 Career. Get exersice mission, went there , target ship do not show up. I went further south to the shore, nothing there Find the mission file, it shows the target loops waypoints and does not dissappear. So where is the ship?

I've played that mission several times and the Marblehead has never shown up. Just cruise around in the area, it will complete. CW

although the directions lead one to believe that contact with the target must be made AND the target ship appears in the mission specs, for some unknown reason it does not appear in the game. as C.Wreckless posted: just cruise around a while and the objective will complete. that is because there are only two objectives for this mission and they are both patrol-time objectives. one in Lingayen Gulf and the other in the Gulf of Tonkin. the mission directive-text gets one focused on playing war games with the two friendlies but in reality it is a 72 hour area patrol. personally, i have looked at the mission and cannot figure out why the stupid ship does not appear. if i do i will post the solution. p.s. i reviewed this mission (again) and, in an effort to find the problem, i made two adjustments. i added an RGG in the same approximate area as the original Group of Two and i changed the Start Date parm of the mission to 1/1/1938. The RGG was added to see if it would react differently than the Group. when the mission was executed, the Group spawned as expected but was not detectable. THAT is unexplainable at this time. the RGG, which should have spawned when the Group spawned, did not spawn until we had been on patrol in the area for a while. since this was unexpected, it was not tracked. the RGG moved around according to its definition but, like the Group, it remained undetectable. the term undetectable means that the crew did not detect their presence when they were in close proximity to our boat. no 'contact' warnings were announced.
