I'm trying to play twos after about 4-6 month and i simply cannot. Every time i start a new campaign i get "promoted" to the next one as soon as the patrol begin. Even using silentotto i get the same issue.

I've tried to do a fresh install twice and still same result.

I had this - come out of u-boat pen and mission complete! - it was because I had file number 2 installed after 4. Uninstall them all - go in order 1,2,4 (optional of course if you're doing the optics ones).

It worked after I switched this up.

don't know if it is related or just coincidence but as last try i went to uplay folder, to clean up any eventual osi chache but i saw no cache folder specific to osi, so i just cleaned up the uplay cache folder (hopeless) and believe me or not, everything started to work correctly (at least until now).
I'll do one last check by starting a campaign using silentotto.

Yes I had suspicions that Uplay is involved...Anyway, from next update I'll make sure that this doesn't occur again...:yep:

using silentotto and starting the 2nd campaign still leads to the same issue :( so sad because i hate the first campaign (did it so many times) and i was trying to avoid it as the death.

Little patience please...:03:

In 1 hour or so I'll upload new update...:03:

vdr1981 06-30-16 04:22 PM

I'm uploading Update No. 15 right now


Note that following procedure is still recommended...

Quote:

To all Captains at sea:
Feel free to check download section for new update No.15...

Due to some sim file tweaks it is recommend that you do following procedure after you enable the update:

- You should first disable all enabled patches with TDW Generic Patcher.
- Restore previously backuped act and dll files.
- restore the TWoS Snapshot again

Or you can simply backup your gamesaves, reinstall your SH5 all together, load your last bunker save and continue campaign...

Cheers...

VDR -

Installed your .15 update. I'm getting an odd CTD at 19:00 hrs in game when starting a new game. I thought it was the generic patcher but disabled all patches and it still occurs.

Danzing bay, 1900 h?
Do you use any additional radio mod?

EDIT

Tested, no issues detected...
Danzing bay mission went OK all the way to 03.00 AM 01/09/1939...Then I exited the game...:hmm2:

Please check "how to report an issue" link in my signature...:yep:

Yes...radio mods causing it??

I shall uninstall them. Is it impossible to play with additional radio mods installed?

Sorry I didn't report it properly!

Yes, probably faulty Event.ini file...

It's not impossible but almost all radio mods require some manual file tweaks. If you dont know files very well, avoid it...

Your other alternative is to create your own modlist or to try SH3 or 4 which are somewhat easier for modding...

I edited the radio file manually but it was still crashing. Taken them all out and just run TWOS. So far so stable...

I may experiment a bit more later and see if I can at least get the BBC World Service added...

Hi Tat501,

The BBC radio Mod has been updated since TWoS update 13, Music has been re-mastered to remove background noise for greater enjoyment.

News events have also been re-worked using original station signatures for the relevant years (National service 1938-4/9/39 Home Service 5/9/39-6/1/40 and Home and Forces 7/1/40-1950).

News is now broadcast at 9 o'clock (21.00 GMT) except for news flashes such as the declaration of war which has a warning flash at 10am and the PM's Speech at 11.11am 3/9/1939.

The Events.ini files have been meticulously picked through for all years to avoid CTD, so you should not have to use vdr1981's very helpful radio files.

To use the BBC radio mod with TWoS download the updated version Here http://www.mediafire.com/download/bd...C_Radio_Mod.7z

you will also need the Grossdeutscher Rundfunk New remix 1939-1945 radio.ini file which you will find here http://www.mediafire.com/download/wm...io.ini_File.7z

enjoy Les

Now i'm having CTD as soon as any patrol begins. Tried to disable all patches and actually no CTD happened. Any suggestion?
