I understand that the max depth for the type II was 150, however, what I did not like was the utter silence of the hull as it descended below crush depth. No load and groaning creaks as the hull neared the crush point.
Is it just a limitation of the sound engine of the game? |

Manual fireing with german u boats
Hello, I ve played RFB in Pacific for a while and started an OM career.It looks so great but I struggle with understanding all the knobs of the attack plot and in what way (if in any) it s linked to the "notepad" I set range aob and speed(wich I like to calculate myself )
Any one seen a tutorial or manual of any kind? and where is the "ping" sound Happy new year EDIT: I managed to find out most of the system, but still I find some weird results from the pinging .sometimes I hear a ping and sometimes not. some times it seem to send different distance to tdc than when I pinged..hmmm...and I seem to always discover ships when theyre very close.could not see futher than 2-3 km although visibility was good.only once I discovered ship like 6 km away. think I ll go back to us subs. tried different german. using rfb, rsds and om Last edited by Husksubsky; 01-01-09 at 08:00 PM. |

Lurker, just spent half the night in real time in close company of a convoy, very nice. one question: A flower corvette was sitting stationary, trying to listen for me. I was, in fact, creeping up on him at decks awash.
fired two tII electric torpedoes for magnetic detonation (aob almost 180) and to my surprise it took an evasive run for it as the torpedoes got close... is that as designed? (sept 1940, western approaches north entrance, around 23:00) their passive sonar picks up on running torpedoes? cheers

HE effects
I would say a sonar operator would pick the screws on his hydrophones, suposing he`s sweeping the bearing in time, and they were alerted. Its a great game dont you think?

Am i a MORON??
That's propobly my fault but it doesn't work.
1. How can I access this operation monsun career? I tried trough u boot career but the normal one appears, the one starting in 1943. I tried different variable: 1.sh4--->OpsMons 600 2.sh4--->patch 1.4-->OpsMons 600 3.sh4--->uboot missions--->OpsMons 600 4.sg4--->uboot missions--->OpsMons 600--->OpsMons patch 600 None of them seems to be working. Each time mods were inserted by the programm Generic Mod Enabler. |

Please read the folllowing http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...5/m/5181035206 it sounds as if you did not install OM correctly this is the correct install order 4.sg4--->uboot missions--->OpsMons 600--->OpsMons patch 600 |

Ha!!!
It all works perfectly. Thank you once again i am really impressed by your skills. I skipped two steps anticipating that this will not affect the overall outcome, however it did. Once again thanks for your help. Regards Mateusz |

Diesels running at periscope depth
Sorry to have to bring up another bug, but The type 9c40, lacking a snorkel, late 43 atlantic mission has it's diesels fire up when the the boat is at periscope depth. I looked for the parameter that controls at what depth the engines come on line but found nothing.
I would think this would make silent running impossible during a torpedo attack. |

OM with RFB/RSRDC fully functional?
Here's a quick question:
If I install OM on top of RFB/RSRD, will I be able to move back and forth between German and US play without problems? In other words, does OM "break" anything in RFB/RSRD, or can I play both with no problems? Thanks! |

The 9c40 lack of a snorkel is currently "as designed" , as far as you other comment I will look into it |
