    Some of the Photo Recon missions in the stock game and TMO cannot be completed for various reasons. This MOD fixes all the Photo Recon missions.

    This Mod is JSGME ready.

    This MOD fixes all the Photo Recon problems for both the stock version of the game and all TMO versions up to 15B. Any TMO version above 1.52 has this MOD included. It also works for the 1.4 Training Wheels version. It is also in any TMOwTw after vesion 152. Always enable it after the older TMO or TMOwTw versions.

    The only files touched are the Photo Recon Folders in the Patrol Objective Folder. All the missions were tested and they will allow completion of the objective.

    Thanks to alieneddiexxx at the UBI Forum for getting me started on this. His testing led me to the solution.

    Thanks to Ducimus for his help. He taught me how to test the missions.

    Thanks Dave. Such a small file to download and it took big time work to make.

    Great work! Thank you. Just curious, how many were fubar? Just a note, for those that use the RSRDC mod, you won't need the fix, most of the recon missions were removed, and the ones that are there are all good.

    Reminds me of an old Journey song, but only in a Silent Hunter style.

    I have a question -
    Is this Photo fix for just the U-Boat addon or is this also for use in the SH4 version 1.4?

    It works for 1.4 and 1.5 stock, TMO 1.4 & 1.5 up to TMO 15B and all versions of TMOWTW up to 15 B.

    I don't know if it will work with RFB or RSRD. All it changes are the 17 Photo Recon Patrol Objectives Files.

    Thanks Dave.
    I just did not remember that many problems with photo recon in 1.4
    Must be getting old.
    I thought it was for 1.5 so you did double good by making a 1.5 and 1.4 in an all-in-one mod.

    The bad one in 1.4 was Yellow Sea, the Dalian photo mission. It wouldn't let you take any pictures. The photo values and minimum photo threshold were FUBAR.

    I've got a photo-recon mission at Panang that is having this problem. Out of curiousity which of those directories is supposed to apply to that area? I didn't see any that seem directly related.
