Un-install OMEGU and go to OMEGU_v100\Data\Library\ and remove the cameras.dat file

Thanks!

Hi Lurker,
In my current patrol, I was near the English west coast, 1939, type II B (latest OM & hotfix) and somehow I got caught on the surface and unprepared by a Norwegian vessel which I thought should be neutral. Well, it wasn't.

It raked me with machine gun fire and destroyed a number of things on the conning tower, but in the process is also killed half of my CT crew. The weird thing is that it also killed people from the other CT shifts, which were not on duty. Is this normal behavior for the game? Inactive watches shouldn't be affected by damage to CT, I think, unless the game still sees them as present in the CT.

I've seen that before, but it's a "stock" issue. I agree that it 'shouldn't' happen but it does

I'm playing OM v.712 with a Type XXI in 1945. For some reason I'm still being spottedand attacked by aircraft when I'm a 100m. Surely this is not accurate?

1. You have and invalid install:

From the readme for the first post of this thread and the readme of OMEGU.

“WARNING”

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL CAUSE OM/OMEGU NOT TO RUN CORRECTLY & SH4 TO CTD.

-----------------------------------------------------------

OMEGU should ONLY be installed on a “stock” SH4 v1.5 after OM v705 and OMv705 to V711.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Any mod that is installed “AFTER” OMv705, OMv705_to_v711, and OMEGU and JSGME generates a “conflict” with any of the above mods and you continue to install the mod and OM/OMEGU no longer works correctly is “NOT” my problem.

“WARNING”

2. You have "OMEGU_v100_Patch2" installed without "OMEGU_v100"

3. OM_Arct_Env "doesn't" ever work correctly "without" OMEGU_v100

4. If you want to do the ATO then install these mods "ONLY" in the following order:

OpsMonsun_V705
OMv705_to_V712
OMv712_hotfix1
OMEGU_v100
OMEGU_v100_Patch2
OM_Arct_Env
Spaxs SH4 Uboat SPEECH FIX_V8
Real Clothes

FYI

Spaxs SH4 Uboat SPEECH FIX_V8 and Real Clothes are the "ONLY" two mods I recommend to be installed "after" OM.

Thanks Lurker. Much appreciated. Sorry to take up your time with my mistake. Keep up the good work.

I am unable to access the Museum. Regular install order: OM 705, followed by 705_to_712. With 705 alone the Museum is OK, when upgrading to 712 any attempt to enter the Museum results in CTD. Can anyone confirm this behavior, or is it just a wrong install of my game?

captgeo · 08-14-09, 08:50 AM

I have the same "problem" but I dont visit the Museum anyway, so I dont care much.

markdenny · 08-14-09, 01:41 PM

ive noticed that the yellow cross hairs in my binoculars has returned is there a mod to get rid of this please

Unable to recreate, OMv705 and OMv705_to_V712 only. Test on two different computer systems: a low end P3 1.7 with 1.5 MB memory and W2K SP4 and high end P2.8 with 2MB memory and XP Pro SP3.

Sorry but I can't fix what I can't recreate

Yes but it is extremely labor intensive.... I am assuming you are using JSGME

(using air units as an example, they come first in your folder and work the same)
Uninstall OM and OMEGU.
Go to the OpsMonsun_V705 folder in your MODS folder.
Explore to the Data\Air folder within.
You will see a folder for every plane in the game.
Inside each folder there is a X_shp.dds file. (For example the ADB_B5N2_Kate folder contains the ADB_B5N2_Kate_shp.dds file).
These are the files you need to delete or alter.

In the Data folder, besides the Air subfolder, you will also have Sea and Submarine subfolders. Each of those contains a folder for each surface or sub unit respectively.

Now the fun part....

If a ship, sub or plane was already in your SH4 before installing OM+Patches then all you have to do is delete the X_shp.dds file in the corresponding folder. OM will not install that file and it will remain unchanged.

If it is a ship, sub or plane that OM has added to your game then you must replace the .dds with an appropriate one for the vehicle type and size or you will either get nothing on the map, or more likely a CTD. (I never actually tried, either seemed bad, but I bet on the CTD)

It is a big, annoying task. I already did it once for FOTRS, never again.. I live with the dots.

markdenny · 08-16-09, 04:07 AM

Lurker this just gets better and better,with all the modding you do for us do you actually get to play the game at all ?
Is it possible or have i just never come across it in the game to have wolf packs in this game us u-boots seem to be patrolling all by ourselves ?
Keep up the good work
