I have finished only first mission of the war, but didn't made others...Now its february 1941, and i don't have new missions, and don't have uboat upgrades and new sub. I have upgraded only twin flak gun and rotating sensor. Is this because i didn't finish missions from the first campaign costal waters?Please help. Thanks!

Yehp, I think so. You have to complete the missions in order to gain renown points for upgrades.

Have you seen these lines before?
Campaign progress is broken in SH5 and these lines offer several solutions for this issue...

Quote:

- How can I pass from one campaign to the next one?
- Campaign transfers in TWoS are date controlled so make sure to be ON PATROL when deadline date of last objective is reached (ending date of your current campaign), preferably somewhere at open seas without AI units in your vicinity . This is important so be careful if you use mods like "Change Days in Bunker"... The end date of first "Coastal Waters" campaign is 1st June 1940. Check ending dates for other campaigns here.
- If campaign transfer still fails to initialize when you reach campaign ending date, then you may wish to use this or this method to trigger campaign transfer correctly... For this method to work, the TDW patch which disables Uplay browser should be disabled. Note that Mama's solution with TWoS is necessary only when you expecting campaign transfer, on campaign ending. Before that date, you can load your gamesaves with or without setting OSI.exe priority, there will be no significant impact on campaign progress.
- Alternatively, you can use this workaround which will work for sure even if campaign ending date is skipped for a few days ...SH5 campaign progress workaround

Renown is earned only by sinking ships...Enemy ships...

Ok. It's not about reknow, i have it a lot(5500), it's about availibility of new sub and components year by year. I will do as you said vdr, thank you. I hope it will work!

To all Captains:

I've reedited broken campaign progress related tip in order to make it, if possible, easier for understanding. Please let me know if there are still some uncertainties about these solutions so I can improve it further...:yep:

This means that you will have to be ON PATROL when deadline date of last objective is reached (the ending date of your current campaign chapter), preferably somewhere at open sea without AI units in your vicinity. This is important so be careful not to skip this date due to badly timed docking...The end date of first "Coastal Waters" campaign is 1st June 1940, "Happy Times" ends on 1st march 1941 ect. Check ending dates for other campaigns here.

Due to certain broken aspects of SH5, there is possibility that even upon reaching campaign chapter ending date, campaign transfer may still fail to initialize. In this case, you may wish to load your previous gamesave and use this or this method to trigger campaign transfer correctly... For this method to work, the TDW patch which disables Uplay browser should be disabled (by default in TWoS). Note that Mama's solution with TWoS is necessary only when you expecting campaign transfer, on campaign chapter ending.

What did you do exactly?

got my torp externals to load.. did a surface, motor far away from things, save, exit, reload and it seemed to work.!

Checked backgrond process in control panel. Than renamed files in save games like you said, and career tracker too. Now when i open comander in bunker, i have baltic operations mission only, i check that and when i started, i was in La Specia base, with this mission for Poland. Lool :D

You didn't give me enough information so I really can't tell what is wrong with your game...I suggest you to check FAQ and tips section once again and if you still cant solve your issues , then start new campaign (using "silentotto" cheat if you like).

You can also upload your last bunker gamesave folder, maybe I could do necessary tweaks for you...

EDIT
The reason why you see "Baltic mission" is because you have started CW campaign again and not Mare Nostrum using "sillentotto" cheat...

Dont have time now, i will back sometimes

Can you explain me how to do "silentotto" cheat?
