It needs more development time.
I'm confused, won't more development time make the negs have more contrast? I'm printing using 1.5-2.5 filters now.
From the photographs of the negatives, the negatives appear to be thin which would mean more development time which would increase the contrast too. However if you are happy with printing the negatives and you have enough shadow detail, then the development is good as you are doing it.

don't count his film out yet.developed in the Jobo in D76(1+1) for 11 min, it has a great tonal range and I often use it for skin tones because of that. that said, it's not a very sharp film.So far I have mainly used ilFord FP4 plus and a little Kodak Tri-X. The TMX seems to have way less tonal range or I’m doing something wrong. The negatives below were shot with a Canon F-1 using the cameras meter. Then developed in my Super Sidekick machine at 3:30 time using HC-110 dilution B developer. fYI the machine runs developer at 75 degrees. Seems like shadow detail is not great and at the same time highlights are clipped, see tree shot. The negs print using 1.5 - 2.5 contrast filters so that part seems ok.
