Navigational stars in Silent Hunter 5

However, once the game is loaded it seems that there are no further gameplay and stability related problems, just as you said in your video...
I'll investigate this further but I'll probably need help from someone with pyton scripts knowledge .




The tests are done both with and without your polaris/stars.txt enhancement, it seems there are no difference there...

Yes, stars.txt, polaris.txt are reference files that are accessed by the program, but they themselves do not affect the operation of the code.

Hey Alpheratz,


I exchanged few messages wit YellowSubmarine and he gave me few advises how to solve CTD issues.


Please try this updated version of New sextant mod and tell me are those CTDs on gamesave/mission loading eliminated. I added your Polaris and stars tweaks to the mod as well... It seems that it works for me...

Vecko, looks like I still have this ejection to desktop problem. And now I'm not sure what exactly the new sextant is causing this.

Tested TWoS 2.2.22 with Ubisoft connect

Immediately after activating the mod I had a few ejections on the desktop when loading the saves. I continued testing and at some point the ejections stopped completely, the problem disappeared as if by itself, I don't know how to explain it but it seems to be working.

This is not so unusual when scripts are changed ...Had somewhat simmilar behavior in my game as well...

OK, use it for some time and keep us posted how it goes...
