I have a new download that will correct the problems many of you are experiencing with TMO 1.7 and it's binoculars. The "MaxOptics for TMO 1.7_Binoculars" with a date of April 2, 2009 can be found "here". I have removed yesterdays original fix from the SubSim site and replaced it with this one dated April 2, 2009.

This modification addresses 2 issues with the TMO 1.7 Binoculars. The first issue, the extreme zoom level made it hard to focus on an object when looking perpendicular of the sub on the rocking open sea. The second issue was the ability to "see through" the subs hull when at high power.

Both issues have been corrected. The Binoculars now have two zoom levels, the first is the same as stock at 7x power. The second level is only 150% greater in magnification at 18x (rather than the 250% of the original). This should help in the stabilization of the high magnification level when looking either port or starboard yet providing an increase in stock magnification.

The issue of "seeing" through the subs hull was corrected by changing the specific parameter to a more manageable figure.



Sorry for the inconvenience

Capn,

I added your hot fix link to the first page as well.

I dont know if i should post this here or in RSRDC.

I get a CTD when cruising through the Ship Manuel (ID manuel). Go into Japan's ships click the left arrow. When everything is fine until i get to the ship just before/after (however you wanna look at it by left clicking) the Momi Destroyer

Wolfling04,

Try running TMO without RSRD and then try to duplicate the CTD, this will tell you wether it is TMO or not.

[Wolfling04]

Shoulda thought about that earlier but was really tired. Turns out it was RSRDC, I'll post in appropriate forum

My apologies

I have a strange issue here... I just swapped to another command in Pearl Harbour from the former in Freemantle. I was commanding the USS-"Salmon". Now i'm in command of the USS-Drum GATO class. Strange thing is that the conning tower is the same... I got new equipment like the new deckgun or the improved SD radar but the tower looks the same.

I had a search on Wikipedia, and the USS-"Gato" effectively had that conning tower, while the "Drum" pictured elsewere had the new one, or at least what i was thinking to get...

Here's the pics:

DRUM

Doi just have to wait for the new towers to be implemented ? ?

The towers were progressively cut down during the war to reduce the silhouette. The Drum there is pictured in her final war configuration, but the Gato is in her early war configuration (the pic is dated Dec 30th 1941). I wouldn't be surprised if the Gato still had the glass in her portholes in that pic. Same subs, just the fairwater was cut down.

I've tried to find a problem but I have not been able to create a CTD looking through the Recognition Manual. I did not try the Uss Growler Hi-RES mod with the above listed group, but I doubt if it has anything to do with the Rec Manual.

Hi all.

Has anybody else had numerous "file is broken" error upon unzipping??
Have downloaded 3 times now and get the same result.

Any ideas???????

[Nisgeis]

Exponent, where did you download the file from? I have heard some people have had problems from certain download locations and I have also heard that not using 7zip was a problem.

The reason for the CTD is because there is an "incorrect" unit type for the Minekaze DD. This problem is within the RSRDC V410 Patch2a. A new version RSRDC V4102B will be up shortly

[Wolfling04]

Thanks lurker

I was posting over in RSRDC and then my internet crapped out so i decided to go to bed.

So i should suppose to see it "changed" in some missions ? like an upgrade...

Nisgeis:

Have downloaded from the subsim downloads page.

Thats the strange thing, I thought that would be safer than any other site but it appears not??

Gutted!!!

edit: My fifth attempt at unzipping results in the same "file broken" error.

Will create a brand new download location incase of a bad block on my HDD. (just an idea)

Goin bed now, try again in the morning.
