Thank you TDW,
for clarifying the matter and throwing light on this custom mission's limit.

If, as it is likely, what you are saying applies to my CTD's, then we should conclude that they haven't anything to do with the ones reported by other forum members.

What is weird is that IIRC CTD's evenience was quite erratic, i.e. not especially connected to a given amount of time from the beginning of the mission I was playing. Anyway it wouldn't be the first time that high TC's are messing things in game, altering factors that should be fixed, and randomizing in this case the maximum mission time limit.

One last detail I can mention, just in case, is that I was having the kind of CTD where the first frame of the intro video (a poster showing a girl) is flashing shortly before you find yourself on the desktop.

You know, my guts are telling me that the mods were not the problems. Does the Baltic Sea cause the TC freezing and CTDs?

Thanks for info sober, I could finally start playing. One suggestion is to host some of the files away from subsim, since there is a 10 DL limit here, therefore one cannot complete his list in a single day, more likely 2 or 3 days.

One thing that keeps happening tho is a CTD caused by Time Compression. I did everything that was on the list, patched, configured the mods and so, but still, after some time playing the campaing missions (not the tutorial), the time compressing gets progressively slower and twitchy to the point of CTD. What I do is saving the game about every 15 minutes, extiting and reloading from there. Every time it reloads, the game feels smooth again. There must be some sort of memory leakage somewhere, which progressively clogs the system. I currently have 8GBs of RAM installed.

One other thing that seemed strange was the behavior of my first pray. At first look its behavior seemed quite impressive to me, zig zagging, so I plot my intercept course acordingly. I dont know if I was indeed detected by this merchant, at long range, 8nm, but he was changing course after a few minutes, totally random, but with no actual destination. I could take it if I knew that he detected me, changing course to avoid my interception, but otherwise, it seems very strange that he was just fishing in hostile waters, in the middle of war!

cheers

Default Ctd ?

Hi sober,
My hard disk crashed and when I installed your mod list I am getting CTD every time I try to use any of the map tools. I am using your mod list, a reinstall of Sh5 and I followed your instructions. So what did I do wrong?

The options file editor is found in NewUIs_TDC_6_9_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Applications

Unenable the NewUIs_TDC_6_9_0_ByTheDarkWraith in the mod enabler before you use the options viewer .

Set path to menu text which is NewUIs_TDC_6_9_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Menu

Set SH5 install path.

Open
NewUIs_TDC_6_9_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scripts\Menu
