.dds
BTW I forgot to mention this'll only work with the subs that are already in the stock game, so that's the IXD2.
For other subs you'll have to install another skin over it.

Removing Patch1A and installing Patch 2 with JSGME... also removed some graphics in the crew management screen;

a) the pics of the crew members are gone
b) the symbols for crew, boat and torpedos (upper right of screen) are white
c) the background of the upgrade section is white
d) instead of available upgrades I see odd "TypeVIIIxyz-Name" entries

All in port while starting a new career.

Reversing the procedure and going back to 1A and everything is fine.
Something missing in Patch2?

Here's my installation order;

RFB_v1.52_102408
RFB_v1.52_Patch_18Jan09
Spaxs SH4 Uboat SPEECH FIX_V8
OpsMonsun_V600
OMV600_Patch1A

...and all is fine.

Having this;

RFB_v1.52_102408
RFB_v1.52_Patch_18Jan09
Spaxs SH4 Uboat SPEECH FIX_V8
OpsMonsun_V600
OM v600 Patch 2

...gives me the above mentioned troubles.

Why ? and which skin
I'd just like to remove every exterior german sub skin as I prefer the default skins.. do I just remove all of the files related to subs under textures, or do I have to remove files from the "submarine" folder aswell? thanks
All skins within OM with the exception of the IXD2 & IIB are embedded within the *.dat files of the subs and can not be removed

This comment make it sound as if you are "hand changing" files that you shouldn't

You want to tell me what mods your using and "exactly" what your doing? Have you started a new career or are you using an old one?


One thing that I haven't seen yet is "details"

What Mods
What install order
What date
What Flotilla
What Sub
New Career or Old

Details

I can't put my hand to the screen an read your mind

Details


So far I haven't been able to recreate these problems

no other mods, with patch 1A the upgrades menu is fine, but with patch 2 some of the items have the incorrect name and description, like the battery upgrades(?).. this is in a new career in the first flotilla



as for not being able to end patrol, that was my fault

great mod, I am enjoying it

Ok this is a missing entry in the UPCLocalization.tsr file. This is a minor bug and will be corrected in the next release

"also removed some graphics in the crew management screen"

This comment make it sound as if you are "hand changing" files that you shouldn't
No files were "hand changed", i.e. edited by me except the menu.txt file (replaced COMSUBPAC with BdU and the "destination....tokyo" to "Auf Gefechtsstationen", all this before I installed OM. This txt-file got nothing to do with the graphics issue. I only edit stuff, when I know what I am doing.

The picture above by demowhc is almost the same what I get, except I'm missing more. Am just downloading the patch again and see what happens.

All this is on a fresh clean install of SH4 1.5 btw - am using a separate install for OM.

Just thought I'd mention that I have sunk a few British merchants but they were not recorded.. After heavily damaging one I waited and watched it sink but it did not record the tonnage etc and there was no marker on the nav map.
