If you don't do this step then you will have no missions to select on the briefing map afaik .
''Don't forget to save/reload the game first time you enter the bunker''

Neil please save me. :arrgh!:

LOL . Take a picture to show whats happening , make sure you press Shift + F11 to take the picture .

Hmmm...Be more aggressive?:rotfl2:

Like Sober said, drop some screenshot, I really can't understand what is going on with your game...

Also, did you perform last step of installation as you should? ''Don't forget to save/reload the game first time you enter the bunker''

Did they change that for SH5? In SH3 and SH4 it's Ctrl + F11. Shift starts a video that makes the FPS pretty much stop.

I think you are right Steve.

CTRL +F11 takes a single picture (screen shot).
Shift + F11 takes continuous frames.

Part of the problem is that until you know who is playing with what set up (No stupid tonnage bar with the freestyle missions) or those on the previous setup without the new mod then confusion is going to continue.

Even before this new set up there seems to be a lack of understanding anyway as to how OHII missions worked.

There is this confusion where having ended the patrol you can just go and get another one, and as some of know it does not work like that.

Having the freestyle missions is going to add to more confusion.

I agree with vecko that how many times do you have to go over the same ground.

With newcomers to the game and others changing over to TWOS it unlikely that they will toil through the hundreds of posts to find an answer.

Every day you see isolated Threads on TWOS problems and queries where it would far more sensible to post it here where you will get a quicker response.

With TWOS becoming even more popular as it will a message in Post #1 and in the installation documentation might calm things down a bit.

FAQ's is definetly a step in the right direction.

I can feel your frustration vecko.

Peter

TWOS , is the best thing to happen to SH5 in a long time .

Now I m also bit confused:hmmm:. Just installed latest patches and can click northwestern approaches (Im in december 39), but no mission and get the question if I Really want to go wihout a mission. I didn t see that specified in the documentation. intentional? seem logic with freeplay but always heard we must pick mission and see that little box appear. First time I encounter that well within date limits.
It appears to me after some reading up the pages that moosenoodles also experience the same issue. I m not sure what I missed

EDIT: The problem appears after I removed hotfix too so it s something else. What did we do under these surcomstances again..just go without mission? I m ok with that....:)

A little from the campaign.cfg..not completed yet(if we talk completed in freeplay)

Unenable this mod and start a new campaign .
OHII v2.5 - No Stupid Tonnage Bar_Free Style Campaign_IO Strat.Map_NewUIs v7.5.0
See if you can now choose a mission on the briefing map .

Hi sober

I will second that. :yeah:

I hope vecko gets rewarded for this at the end of the year.

Peter

OK, show me the screenshot of navigation map from the bunker and upload Campaign .cfg file from the same bunker save. It is the best way for me see what is wrong.

Note that in order to activate all tweaks from hotfix2 you have to restart your campaign or to edit campaign,cfg file from gamesave manually.

Not possible with all in one megamod like this one...I'm also pretty much sure that there's nothing wrong with the mod/addon, you don't have any problems fro example, right?

And for anyone else, you can see whole idea behind no tonnage bar/free style campaign on this page...http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...89818&page=372

I don't know if this is due to this mod or if this is SH5 in general, but holy crap aircraft are thick!

It's still 1939 and I'm making my first pass up the British eastern coast.

And I'm getting shot up by planes during the day like it's 1945!

In SH3 I could pretty much sail the eastern coast of Britain unmolested in 1939 and 1940, except for running into the occasional escort or torpedo boat.

Is this to be expected in SH5?

Steve

Hi everyone! Enjoying first trip with SH5 and WOS. Is there a manual/readme for the WOS mod? Cheers.

New tactics are required if I am near the British coast . If I have all engines stopped and are at silent running I can sit at 35 meters below and listen for traffic with the hydrophone during the day . I only need to surface briefly to release the CO2 twice per daylight hours . I travel at night to get to where I want to go . I have had to return for repairs twice so far in my current campaign because of planes . I have been lucky and found 2 small convoys at night .

Hi Steve

It's bit hot on the East Coast with the latest IRAI.

Anything over TC32 and you are going to take damage.

One way to ease the problem is to adjust the Crash Dive time in the OFEV.

In the Crash Dive Tab you can change the default 20 seconds to a lower setting of 10 seconds that seems to work ok up to TC32.

Another option is do not stay on the bridge but go below during the day.

Peter

Thx for answer. I never tweaked anything, I missed that part , but I ll send when I come home.

I did however reload with hotfix removed and to my surprise still no mission
