you should probably run JSGME and remove the 4gb_patch mod. Have fun with that mod. keep in mind that the enemy can and will fire back at you...with torpedoes, too. ![]() ![]()

Well, got my orders for my second patrol, the first on my new boat.
![]() Great!. Back to the Phillippines, on the limit of my range ![]() ![]() ![]() and just a few minutes later, while I was deciding what to do next, some planes were spotted. Probably Kido Butai about to strike Darwin. Definitely this mod hates me!. |

February 19th, 1942 is the "Darwin Harbor Day", which sank at least 7 ships and damaged quite a few others of the 47 or so in the harbor at the time. The raid was intended to cripple any response that could be mustered from there to counter the Japanese invasion of Timor on the 20th, and shortly after, the invasion of Java. Darwin Town itself was heavily damaged, and most residents left the area afterwards, and the harbor, now unsupportable, was likewise abandoned. Japan continued air raids (60+) until November 1943, mostly based from Timor...

Well, I found those CVs on their way out of Darwin on the 14th of February. They were a bit early.
Since my mission was a supply one and there were Zeroes around, I decided to leave them alone. Moved out of their way and proceeded to Mariveles to unload. When arriving I received a message to pick up some guests out of Corregidor, and while it took me some time to find them on their raft, I finally could take them inside my boat. The return trip was quiet, with no ship spottings, but I had to make it to Southern Australia (not even Fremantle, but still souther, to a place I had never heard of in this WW2 context). Only fisher boats in the harbour ![]() Now on my 3rd patrol, ordered to Northern Java first and currently NW of Borneo, with 3 more ships to add to my tally (hindsight about torpedo exploders is great ![]() One think I'd like to ask: what are those yellow lines on the chart? ![]() They appear while zooming in and out, at seemingly random places. I couldn't make out what are they for. ![]() |

the colored lines are FOTRSU designators for the various CINCPAC territories: SoPac, SowePac, etc as well as highlighting the International Date Line. theoretically, boats assigned to a specific command were not supposed to stray into a bordering command area, lest they be unexpectedly detected and fired upon because they were not expected to be in that area and would be assumed to be the enemy. however, no such thing happens in SH4-FOTRSU. it was an eye-candy feature that the FOTRSU Team added to bring a feeling of realism into the Nav Map during play. i am sure that they spent time to research it in order to have the highest degree of accuracy. use the lines for general info only and steam wherever/whenever you want in search of enemy shipping without the fear of friendly fire. good luck.

It's been a long time away from the game and want the best version I can create before I jump back in.
Any recommendations beyond the following that I should activate in that JSGME order? 100_FalloftheRisingSun_Ultimate_v1.8 Fl-OQ_FotRSU_v1.8f_upcPatch AddinModzPak_18 |

100 mods followed by 200 mods, etc. not sure about what is included in the Addin Modz Pak because i am at work but i am fairly certain that they are numbered in order to provide direction as to the order they should be applied. do not attempt to use any mod that is not meant for use with FOTRSU as it will take you to the land of DTC very quickly. ![]() here is a sample that seems pretty good. OQ=Officer Quarters. mods 3 & 4 are remastered ships for FOTRSU. 100_FalloftheRisingSun_Ultimate_v1.8 101_FotRSUv18_FixPak Nippon_Maru_v1.9b_FotRSU Nihon Kaigun v1.3a_FotRSU Combined Roster 305_LessJapaneseAirRadar 650_MoreDudz 801_UMark Invisible 803_NoPlayerSubFlags Fleetboat_Interior-Officers_Quarters_FOTRSU_v1.7_EN FI-OQ_FotRSU_v1.8f_upcPatch 851_Red_FotRSU_Logo good luck, Herr Kaleun!

![]() Not really. There is not much time as of late to work on things, so it is a slow slog. Plus, more than one mod add-in have abjectly failed after weeks of attempted development, which is frustrating. But we'll get there eventually. Computer developers are found of saying "two weeks", but no way that is happening... If it all fits together nicely, it would be that long, but thus far, we are still months out... ![]() Quote:

The dates are correct. Not so much the campaign files, which I believe come from the original game (not FOTRSU) and are not very accurate, at least for this raid. |
