Ok. Thank you.

DECM is a base game feature, i recommend reading the manual if it's giving you trouble, and there's no player interaction with it, it always automatically deploys against all incoming missiles

primarily the SM-2 cruisers have this, both in the base game and in NTU, but later on destroyers also receive DECM

What ships are they mostly on and does it automatically deploy?

DECM is actually useful as it can fool incoming missiles, in fact SLQ-32(V)3 is an extremely potent DECM system and can reliably defeat a significant fraction of earlier missiles (base SS-N-2, base SS-N-3, AS-2, SS-N-7) and thin out incoming numbers of smarter missiles

Thank you for the answers. Is DECM worth anything?

anchorchain configs have nothing to do with this mod, and you can ignore them in anchorchain's case

many ships have jammers (DECM) but do not have OECM anymore (offensive jammer) because they werent useful and were taking up too much UI space (and werent particularly realistic to begin with)

2 questions. Where in the load order does AC CONFIGS go? How do I find the ECM jammers on ships?

@leonvsada080
it's likely that some other mod is copying old NTU code and causing issues, but i have no way to tell if i dont know exactly what conditions you were trying to use NTU with
"modern-era mods" is not enough information for me to actually do anything with, and it's not impossible that you may also have older mods that havent been updated (which can also cause issues with such a large mod like NTU)

if you want to provide more information, try DMing me on discord or head over to the BuOrd official modding server so this issue can be ironed out

Hi! I think I found a compatibility issue. When New Threat Upgrade is enabled, the game crashes while loading missions if other modern-era mods (like Type-055 or J-20) are active.
Disabling this mod fixes the issue — everything else loads normally. Just wanted to let you know in case it helps with future updates!

The first Spruances entering service, as with OHPs, didn't yet have CIWS or Harpoons. Some of these ships wouldn't be refitted until the early 80s. But thank you for considering it anyway.

few things though: the OHP and spruances dont meaningfully exist in large enough numbers in the 70s to justify their existence, and the loadouts for them would be marginally different (shorthull OHPs are basically 1977-1982 spec and sprucans are still rocking early harpoons, although NSSM and the radars would be different)

same deal with 688, although i might make a 1978/1979 version without tomahawks which allows me to upfit the base game 688 with marginally better armament and sensors
in the mid 70s the most relevant ships would be 637s and the rest, with early Mk48 and a mix of early BQQ-5 variants (and perhaps even some older BQQ-2 installations) and the potential for weird subclass towed arrays like STASS, BQR-15/25, and the Tuba AIGS modifications

great suggestions, will have a look about these

wishlist (pls):
Brooke '68 (DASH + RIM-24C Tartar)
Galveston '68 (RIM-8G)
Spruance '75
OHP '75
California '75
Long Beach '68
Los Angeles '75
E-2A Hawkeye ('68), the current E-2B still has the C's APS-125 radar instead of the APS-96 the description says it has
P-3B/C ('68 and '75 respectively)
'68 and '75 versions of carriers and support ships that we already have (Sea Sparrows and Phalanx in 68 scenarios makes some of these ships obscenely op)
QH-50 DM (Project "Snoopy" DASH drone with cameras in place of torpedo)

Thank you to the makers of the very best mod this game has, I wish you guys luck!

is it this mod specifically? do you have other mods? so far i believe i've fixed all material errors like that, so its likely some other mod causing those issues

There is an issue with the mod, where it wants stuff from "Marmoset" but the game doesn't find it.

i dont change any of those ships and i dont change the weapons for them, and i dont change the ammo for them, i recommend removing older mods (which could include older files that are causing problems)

usn_msc_adjutant ,usn_mso_aggressive and usn_ae_kilauea

@224135410
what ships did you have in that mission? its not an issue with the ammo, its an issue with a particular weapon setup on a ship

I've not seen that bug in the current NTU version, so this is some other mod that you're having issues with

@adam101killam load order doesn't matter with those mods, you can put them anywhere as they don't actually contain ini files

Hi,I found that usn_cal_20mm and usn_cal_05in might have some bugs. When I start a mission in mission editor , there was a error report 'SeaPower.CIWS.setMuzzleVelocity',and after deleting usn_cal_20mm.ini and usn_cal_05in.ini in ammunition files, problem was solved. I don't know whether it's a bug or some mods were conflicting, please check it if possible. thanks.

I have a question. can this be loaded under Anchor Chain and Sea Lifter?

i can work on that, added to my list

I would like to request some 1968/75 era support ships. Even if they're just Sacramentos/Kileaueas with older weapons, because right now we just have a lot of support ships with CIWS and or Sea Sparrow.

this mod doesn't, but it doesn't conflict with any mod that only changes the base game flight decks

Quick question for ya, does this mod allow for four aircraft to be spotted and launched from carriers? I know there is another mod out there that does this.

I noticed that you said that this mod may conflict with mods that change flight decks. Thanks in advance.

@chegevarko
do you have other mods installed? do you have anchorchain installed?
i've never experienced a crash with NTU or PELT, and every crash report i've received is from users running many other mods

how many other mods do you have enabled?

Mod crash the game

Time to blot out the sun with TLAMs

easy, to add a new loadout you just need to add two things in the aircraft's ini file
1) a new Available Loadouts entry where the weapon systems start, its a big list and you can add preexisting loadout names to it
2) copy and edit an existing loadout and match it to that name

so in your case you might be looking at 'AntiShipLongrange' for the harpoon loadout, although i have no clue how the hornet is set up because its not in my mod

Hi all, got a question. I want to add weapon load outs to various aircraft in the game. Starting with the F/A-18C. Can you point me to a guide please, specifically i want to add 3 loadouts Anti Ship with a pair of Harpoons, 3 tanks and standard AAM's, AS Heavy with AAM's a centreline tank and 4 Harpoons and lastly precision strike with AAM's 3 tanks and 2 AGM-84E Slams. These were all documented loads for the 18C and D in USN service

@Super Tzefa read the description

pls, you can tell how many incopatible mods are? Major mods? Can you advise us about that pls

i studied more about the specific versions of Mk48, and it seems like mod 5 (initial ADCAP) did not receive the extended fuel tank, but did have the improved motor and new propellant
so the lineage is mod 4 (17nmi at 40kn) -> mod 5 (21nmi at 55kn) and mod 6 with the full upgrade (27nmi at 55kn)

did the mark 48 torpedoes get a nerf? i feel like they were longer range in previous versions.

Thank you! I am not familiar with these. Thank you for your explanation.

@RX-86-22 this is intentional, not all OHP class ships received a towed sonar array, especially in the mid 1980s, and short hull OHPs were not prioritized for towed sonar arrays
you may also notice that long hull OHPs are not operating SH-3Js but instead SH-2Fs, and this is due to flight restrictions due to the lack of RAST onboard

these are simply the real variations of the class IRL, and NTU simulates them

After using MOD, the towed sonar of the original Oliver Hazard Perry and Oliver Hazard Perry (1986) cannot be used, while other models of Oliver Hazard Perry can use the towed sonar normally.

It's the Royal Navy mod.

Update, It's a conflict between mods. Investigating more.

Can't figure why but NTU is giving me a CTD.

Nevermind on that last comment. Discovered that opening the game, and THEN subscribing, eliminated the update menu stick. SO if anyone else is having that problem, that might fix it.

Hey, I opened the game for the first time in a few months (had a kid) and it is giving me a specific "Getting Mod Upgrades from Steam" so I went ahead and uninstalled all 46 Mods I had downloaded, and started specifically with NTU since it needs to be near the top of the Mods to work, and it has sat on that screen for about an hour or so. It also says " Mod 1 of 1 Downloading 336489660..." Is this something I need to let sit for a while, due to the apparent update you made to the file? Or is it busted entirely? I am running this on a ROG Ally X, and am not used to PC Gaming whatsoever (PS3-5 is my gaming experience) and dont know if this is normal.

Thank you!!!

well other mods are the purview of their authors, but the change from shipboard OECM to DECM was intentional as it didnt really improve your antimissile capabilities and allowed for an unrealistic degree of standoff jamming against aircraft

if you really want it back, just change the sensor type of SLQ-32 from 'Defensive' to 'Universal'

Is there a post or instructions on how to add back the Offensive ECM onto the Tico configurations? I just picked up a CGX mod and the OECM is not showing up on the weapons list. Thank you.

im not sure what that means, its by far the quietest submarine out of anything else
just because it's extremely quiet doesn't make it undetectable, so going flank speed means you're definitely at risk of being detected even at long range, so be aware of your acoustics and that you *aren't* invisible

I'm not sure if it's intentional but the LA flt3 is very very loud and gets detected relatively easily

updated the mod, also thanks for 40k guys

they should be on the 1986 B-52G, they just aren't on the base game one because the devs haven't implemented the rotary launcher

What happened to the AGM-86 in the base game, I remember them adding it but i swear they never put it on the 52G

@Eternal_consort if possible, i would also like to know if you were running other mods, especially significantly sized mods that change lots of files in the base game and add lots of units
