Please inform Trevally in OHII's thread on any anomaly or misleading campaign message.

In theory you should been given notice about the availability of any individual replenishment ship shortly before her deployment in campaign. The same goes for their retirement.
Replenishment operations in Spanish ports were unofficial (Spain was a neutral country) and they were carried out in a strictly confidential way; even admitting that someone in KM's high commands could foresee the readiness of Spain to support the German Campaign in the Atlantic, to the point of knowing with large advance start and ending dates (which I doubt), no U-boat captain would have been informed about them but at the last minute. :salute:


Hi Gap
Im in middle March, so the message about the MV Bessel came to early, i remember i've received it on March 1th. I will post it on OH thread.

Thank you, indeed it's an issue of that mod. No big deal.

Also turns out so far that the other CTDs I've had are random and not repeatable, which is good news in a sense.

Lately I've been having a problem with the messagebox (where crew orders, info etc are shown) disappearing. It pops up again as I up the TC (at 32x and above), then disappears again as I lower the TC below 32x. Is there some toggle button to make it stick?

Can you say more about those CTD's , how many of them, location, were there any AI units around you ect... Have you read my tips for stable gameplay?

I'm not sure if I'm remembering it correctly, but I believe it's the "L" key that hides and unhides the message box.

For clarity, it is the main.cfg in your documents folder. In windows 7, C:\Users\<your profile name>\Documents\SH5\data\cfg

NOT the game folder Silent Hunter 5\data\cfg.

Yes sound right. The one u get told to change during install (first post) Change spot friendly from 1to 1,256 or whatever then should be able to pass with hight tc in travel mode
Or just 256 so it ll keep 256 in both modes

I've searched long and hard, but can't find an answer to this one, so apologies if it's been covered.

I'm running SH5 with WoS on a 3440x1440 monitor. I don't seem to be able to get accurate distance measurements with the RAOBF. Should I be able to and I'm just doing it wrong, or would there be a 21:9 res patch needed somewhere?

Thanks so much for this mod by the way Vdr, what a pleasant way to jump back in to SH5!

Hello everybody . Occurs in my game that some contacts heard by hidrophone are not detected by soundman . Sometimes it's the opposite. It is a known bug ?

Thanks for the response VRD :up:

yes ... I have tested at various depths. The target is in my range, but sometimes , no sound.


I was just curious. I thought it was just me.

wolf of steal
 
hello, I have a problem after installing the wolf of steal the game began to get dark and lighten add that on a clean version of the game did not. successful hunt

PaulB 04-16-15 01:17 AM

I'm having some trouble getting to the next mission early on in the campaign after returning to base before the 'deadline'.
I have read this tutorial post and have tried to follow the instructions but to no avail.

The first time I had the problem what I did was start another patrol without orders and end it on the spot, game time advanced by a couple weeks and I was able to get my coastal waters mission.

Now it should be time for Baltic Ops mission but it's nowhere to be seen on the map, though sometimes the 'baltic ops' tag flashes on the top left, then disappears.

In the patrols themselves (except for those done whenever I returned early to dock), I have always done what requested and completed the in mission objectives.

Curiously, when I exit the game for good, the final message shows that all my mission objectives (Operation Weserübung, Breaking the Fortress etc) are incomplete...

What am I doing wrong?

THEBERBSTER 04-16-15 05:04 AM

Hi PB

The Baltic Operations mission is the first mission you see that starts on August 31st to September 5th 1939

If you are in Kiel earlier than the 4th September you will not be able to select the EBCW mission to get a grid reference.

You can always start the mission without selecting it and then use End Patrol from the bridge.

You should now be able to go to the Flotilla Leader be able to request
the EBCW mission from loading the new Autosave in Base made when you ended the patrol.

Operation Weserübung is the last mission in the Total Germany Campaign and does not appear until March 20th 1940 and is limited to 3 weeks to complete it.

Some special operations like Breaking The Fortress (BTF) show up just after Eastern British Coastal Waters (EBCW) starts.

BTF only gives you 1 month to complete it.

EBCW runs for about 3 months.

It is advisable to do BTF straight away and come back to EBCW.

This way you should have plenty of time to complete both.

My tutorial post #64 shows you all of the missions/bases/subs in OHII.

Completing missions is important as they are worth Campaign Points thath you need a minimum of 8 from these 6 missions to successfully complete this first Total Germany Campaign before moving to the Happy Times Campaign.

Not really... Only victory/defeat message between campaigns depends of value points (AKA small Iron crosses). Player needs only one value point in order to complete campaign successfully ...

It may be that your missions are locked because you skipped deadline date of EBCW.

I strongly suggest you to enable this patch last in in your JSGME and restart campaign. It makes all missions date control and deals with tonnage bar bug and tonnage bar it self once and for all...http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...&postcount=195

For now, it's only for first two campaigns but there will be more updates...

PaulB 04-16-15 10:01 AM

Thanks for the feedback.
This is what I have done:

Started campaign and made the very first mission where you just head north of the base and patrol there. Can't remember the name of the base, but it was east of Denmark, near Kiel, and the mission was in the Baltic.

I returned to base and then selected the Scapa Flow mission.
Made the mission, sank one capital ship, returned to port prior to that mission's deadline.

Eastern British Coastal Waters was not yet visible, so I started a patrol without new orders and immediately docked again and ended it. Time had advanced by a couple weeks and then EBCW appeared.
I selected EBCW and made the mission, also returned a little early.
I advanced time using the aforementioned method as upon I return I saw no further missions. Now I think it's mid-Dec 1939 and I am still not getting any new missions whatsover.
What's more, when I exit the game I am shown that even the missions I successfully completed (like Scapa flow) are 'incomplete'.

I'll add the patch suggested above, last after TWOS etc, but is there a way to continue my current save or is it doomed?

You can edit campaign.cfg file inside your last gamesave but it's better idea to start fresh campaign...

THEBERBSTER 04-16-15 05:37 PM

Hi vdr

Did not realize that.

Not as bad as it could have been.

Good luck with your new Campaign proposals.

Very interesting watching it all coming slowly together.

Peter
