is this possible and does the program work for randomizing the days in bunker or set a specific duration of days?
Yes, it does...

XenonSurf 01-10-18 06:07 PM

Thanks very much, Vecko. The random or set days is the most useful for me anyway.
Cheers,

Maybe I've been doing this wrong the whole time (as I re read the FAQs), but my normal Campaign Transfer usually works whether Im out to sea or in port. I always get the transition to happy times by getting a new base assignment to which I go...then get new orders.

Then something weird happened (at least to me). I'm returning to port on June 5th 1940, about 3 days still left out at sea, and I save the game but reload via the Main Menu (vs exiting the game and reloading like i've ALWAYS done). Anyway I reload from the main menu just to try it and it loads just fine. But a minute or so after the game loads (at sea) I come back from the kitchen and the screen is on the Campaign transfer screen (which I've never since since the start of the new career). I'm like "okay" and I choose happy times and hit continue. The next thing I know I'm transported to the bunker. Well this kind of freaks me out so I exit out of the game to read the FAQs to see if I missed something.

So long story short longer......My KSD Commander shows the Date is 6/15/40 with Transfer orders to France on 7/2/40 and shows current status as out on patrol (6/15/40) for a new patrol. :06:

So some questions:

1. Is all of this normal?

2. If I reload the last save and when the Campaign Transfer screen comes up can I hit "exit" instead of "continue" so I can sail into port yet still get the transfer to work?

3. Do I just lose 10 days to make the transfer happen?

4. Why is KSD showing transfer orders to France before I would know about them....or before they are sent to me?

5. In my haste to figure out wtf was going on with the Campaign Transfer....I forgot to make a manual save in the bunker. Are Bunker Autosaves reliable?

6. Should I reload an earlier Manual save (6/5/40) before the Campaign Transfer initiated and try it again or will this screw the game up since it already initiated?

I returned to silent hunter after long Absence and Downloaded Wolwes of steel mod. the problem is SH V with mod will launch load and then blackscreen. I hear music play but screen stays black and it in task manager it says that it is unresponsive. Normal Silent Hunter V works. Any ideas for solution ?

Waiting might help. Seriously, the game will take a few minutes to load up. It might appear unresponsive, but donīt worry

@CaesarCzech I think you can lower the rate of realism before you start a new campaign e.g. navigation.

.. or learn real nav, its simple and its core of what makes TWOS better than mods for older versions...

That is in 4.3 aspect ratio.
TWOS is 16.9.
Match your monitor resolution, aspect ratio, and hz to the in game graphics settings.
Try with and without Vertical Sync.

Also check that your gpu is setup correctly for SH5.

Another option worth a try.

As your game is running the stock game it is not a Direct X problem.

Nothing i tried workseven tried to use the 4:3 compatibility. It doesnt work
I tried windowed mode setting up resolution to 16:9.

i only got that black screen in campaigns the historical missions are safe.

Dude not everyone need/want that degree of realism. It's a matter of time. I have a maximum of 4 hours a week for playing SH V. If I'd use real navigation, I'd make almost 0 progress. With real nav I need about 2 hours from finding a enemy ship with sonar until beeing in firing range. That means that I could only sink 2 ships (if not convoys) a week! No thank you. No time for this.

Then leave us alone and play stock SH5!!!

ONLY sink 2 ships a week!!!!
In real life UBoat commander "would crawl through the glass" for sink 2 ships every week!!!
SH is not a shooter game!

Hi Guys
Let's take it easy and calm down.
It not down to any player to say how TWOS should be played.
TWOS can be played at any difficulty level from 0 to 100% which means the stock game does not need to be used with all it's problems.
It's the players prerogative as to how he/she plays there game no one else's.
While I commend someone like Palmic who wants to make his game as hard as possible I do not look down on the player who wants to use the 3 circles method if that suit them.

Hi everyone!

Firstly I just want to say thanks again for all the hard work put into making TWOS, it's come a long way since I last installed (a single .exe wow!).

I just have a quick question. Since I last played I now have a 16:10 monitor and am uncertain what (if any) resolution patch I should enable via JSME. I'm going to go ahead with native at the moment, but obviously this isn't idea in the long run.

Thanks so much in advance, I'm really looking forward to diving back into this game.

Its not game for you mate, easy as that..
I would never ever put one % down from TWOS max difficulty.
In fact, i even make it harder by removing textual information about sound at hydrophone etc... :salute:

16.10 resolution would be
8 x 5 Aspect ratio.

That's fantastic, I had a suspicion that was the case but I didn't want to act on it before I got confirmation.

Also dude thank you massively for your collection of FAQs and tips, they're exceptionally helpful.

Once I get to grips with the game again I hope to do a brief LP (inspired by emptycup's content) of the game and I'll be sure to thank you in that as well.

Edit: I just saw that it even mentions it being for 16:10 in the description, boy do I ever feel like a tit now haha. Thanks all the same though dude.

Wise words. It is a naval simulation. So it is impossible to play at a 100% reality level. (in those days there was no internet and there was no TheBerbster tutorial). And I really hope there are no real casualties at any level of difficulty.

Have to go. Real life job, you know. Salute and respect to all that play TWOS

Have a nice day.

Aniuk

As THEBERBSTER said please quit bitching. It's a game and I keep it as a game and I decide how I play it! Feel free to play on "100%" realism. I won't do it.


So yesterday appeared a new problem. If I hit O for the clock, the clock appears and instantly disappears. Can't open the clock again, won't appear anymore. Any fix for this? Corrupted game save?
