this mod run very well for me no CDT's at all and TBH i don't know why ppl have CTD's

very nice job vdr1981

PS. a mega mod with Magui Interface would be also great :D

Good to hear that, it gives me a hope! :up:

Regarding Magui Interface, I never used it because it doesn't support TDW real navigation which is big drawback for me. But again, why not...We could knock together something like that in the future...

gap, are you interested in making few touch ups to my qiuckly made creapy looking promotional poster from the first page? :D

WOW!! Silent Hunter 5 comes of age!!

congratulations and many thanks of appreciation to the modding community for this...:salute:

Sure :up:

Honestly I don't dislike your poster at all, and I like very mutch the film frames below it. Just tell me what do you have in mind, and I will see what I can do for further improving them :salute:

Weird.
 

My watch crew isn't taking their stations on the conning tower like their suppose to after surfacing.

Hi vdr,thank you for your wonderful Megamod.:up:
I have a small problem. My old PC is not very powerful,it can only run the original SH5 with the lowest setting and the fps are just acceptable. After installing your Megamod,I recognize a small drop in FPS,especially when my steel wolf is near ports (may be due to some graphic mods?). Can you help me fix it when you have some free time?:salute:

i think the best for u it's using OH II light version not the full version of OH II wich is includet in this mega mod ....

Nothing special, basically the same with some more appropriate fonts, and better resolution. I could give you a picture and moder's names in txt file so you can add more people that I skipped.

Nothing unusual, most of the time simple save-reload of the game solve this issue. Also, try not to use high TC when you submerging or surfacing...
Again nothing unusual here, I also have very outdated PC and average FPS in ports for me is 15-20 frames, with 16x TC even less...You should know that Kiel is the "hardest" port for FPS, others are much better...
My configuration is AMD Athlon X2 5000+ @ 3,1 GHz Nvidia8800GT and 4 GB DDR2 RAM.

Sure, send them :up:

Cant wait to see your work ! :D

OK, the picture is in the attachment...

And here are the moders...I have probable missed someone (don't be angry please :)), if you remember if anyone was included in mods development please add them...

hehe I will start working on it tomorrow, but don't expect too much: your poster is quite good already, and improving it won't be easy :salute:

P.S: should I retain the exact same wording as the original poster? Any suggestion by some inspired native English-speaking member? :)

No need to hurry. Do it what ever you like, I have full confidence in you gap!:up:

I already tried to pinpoint it, but it just happens randomly. In former times it was the usual apporach home harbor problem, but curiously that does not give any problems now.

It's just at sea randomly crashing every couple hours now, night, day, with ships around, or without, with time compression or without, just suddenly game quits. But given that's what Silent Hunter V was always like on my system, I won't complain.

I have not updated to your latest version yet, though (never change a "running" system, hehe).

Still having problems mate, fresh install and followed your instructions to the letter. It will still not let me use alternative speed controls to set the boats speed to anything other than the ahead slow, ahead one third etc.

As soon as I change speed using the control key and clicking with the mouse on the speed, the message box shows the speed I ask for, the crew respond with the speed I ask for, but the boat refuses to slow down/speed up.

Hope someone can help here because I getting frustrated with this..add to that the inability to use the scroll to change heading..I change mods up and these functions both work :(

What is PC configuration? Try to save and reload (with exiting from game compleatly) the game at least once in 1-2 days of simulation time...

I'm sorry but I can't reproduce nothing similar...:hmmm: But I don't get it? You said that speed command problem has been solved from some reason ? What happen? Is this unique case, anyone else experiencing something similar?

I'll do my best to help you out, I think this mod is fantastic :)

Got an I5-2500 (4x3.3GHz)
Geforce GTX 760
8 Gigs RAM

Should be plenty of power.

That said, I have the same problem as Puff in that the Boat does not accept commands. This only happens when some sort of time compression is active, though.

I have acouple of other problems as well, though I do not think those are related to your Mod.
For example, the actual seefloor never matches the visals, I always hit bottom long before I reach teh visible seafloor. I also can't use the seabed to place the boat there, even with no peed whatsoever I take constant damage. This means once you have flooding, the boat is doomed no matter what.
Also, and this is a major bugger, despite seeing the target clearly in the scopes, I often cant log it in, which prevents me from being able to identify the target and use the Stadimeter.
But as I said, I think those probs are engine related, not your mods, so I guess I gotta live with it.

Today and yesterday I started working on a possible new logo for The Wolves of Steel. I have prepared three proposals so far. All of them bring the name of the mod engraved on a bolted steel plate, the way many emblems were fitted on u-boats' conning towers. The fonts selected are different varieties of the Jack-boot Helvetica, member of the family of Fraktur typefaces, often seen on Nazi poropaganda posters and also used for conning tower mottos. End of the similarities.

The first logo takes inspiration from the "teeth" originally mentioned by the mod subtitle. The steel plate brings three scars (similar to the ones commonly associated to Wolverine), supposedly originating from the said teeth. With a bit of fantasy, they can also be seen as a set of bllody waves :arrgh!: Font used: Tannenberg Fett

I took the freedom to slightly modify the mod name for the second logo proposal; from The Wolves of Steel to The Iron Wolves. The logo brings a rounded version of the Iron Cross, and the subtitle phrase was modified accordingly to "dare to be an hero", obviously referred to the German decaration. Font used: Postdam.

possible controversies:

- the name "Iron Wolves" is shorter and (imo) more threnchant than the original "Wolves of Steel", nonetheless it has already been used in many circumastances, most notably by a Lithuanian fascist movemen and for an old submarine simulation

- I ignore if the iron cross, similar to the swastika, can be considered offensive in some countries.


The third and last logo proposal displays a periscope sight with a convoy in sight and a ship on flames. The subtitle phrase reads "the hunting has started" thus creating a connection with the title of the SH series and with the same idea of an hunting wolves. Originally I had thought of another phrase; "your scope, our hope", wich played with the ambiguity of the word "(peri-)scope" in English, but then I realized that had the Nazists won the war, our world would have been a wort place, which is exactly the opposite of "hope" ;) Font used: Koch Fette Deutsche Schrift
