[GeneralLawson]

Much obliged. I also noticed that adding the Kriegsmarine Grid Map mod caused the game to CTD within a few seconds until I took it off.

I will try the layout you suggested and see how it works. I'm only on my second patrol, so no harm done really.

EDIT: @Silent Steel, I'm running an AMD Phenom II X2 3.1 Ghz dual core with 6 gigs of RAM and a GeFore 9800 GT video card. I doubt it's my hardware causing the problems. I've also tried the Dynamic Environment mods but for some reason they were causing crashes. I uninstalled them and the crashing lessened.

EDIT 2: I have no idea how to use the migrator app. >_>

I tried that load-out with the IRAI No_Hydrophone_On_Surface_No_Aircraft_Spotting added in right after IRAI 0_0_30, and the game CTD about 3/4 through the Kiel Canal. Should I not use that?

I love this game, but trying to get a stable set of mods in it is quite the frustrating experience. There needs to be a GWX kind of thing for SH5.

EDIT: Tried it again, without that extra IRAI bit. The Kiel Harbor Pilot took me through the first harbor you pass in the canal. Actually through it. My sub went through the docks, through the land behind it, back into the canal, then crashed into the side of the canal.

Hmmm...

The 'IRAI_0_0_30_TheDarkWraith.txt" let's us know this;
'This mod is fully compatible with my UIs mod. You have to install my UIs mod first then install IRAI and then the add-on mod for no hydrophone on surface if you want that. Say yes to all JSGME warnings.'

Or?

[GeneralLawson]

I tried Silent Steel's load-out. It seems to be more stable, though I'm going around Denmark now instead of using the harbor pilot. The Dynamic Environment (realistic) mod gave my sub and crew a very strange glow, but the normal version of it seems to be working well.

About that 'glow' - PM Stoianm or Gap

Hi all,

it' a long time I've got a problem, after installed MODs Mgnus Opus e UI TDC 6.5.1 the Dark Wright, I 've never been able to find the recognition manual.
obviously I did switch on the toggle chart visibility, but nothing manual it's missed!! I looked at any part of the screen in every angle, but nothing (see picture below)........
I also checked in the game directory trees (shown below), and everything seems to be ok......at least in my opinion (SOAN Directories...)
maybe some DLL or something, it's missing ?What happened?
Anybody can help me?? Pleaseeeee

Thanks a lot in advance!!
Bye

A strange behaviour with the savegame.

I was submerged in front of a port, and i sank 2 tankers at 2 different places, i have 2 torpedo left. During this shooting fiesta i do several saves.
After that, i slowly escape the area and paf my first CTD; no worry for me, it's a modern video game .

So i came back to SH5 and reload my last save game.
I discovered that my last sunk tanker was no more counted in my hunting result, and i had always 2 torpedo left. More strange, a tanker is still floating in the port but a the same place at the first i sunk lol. It's like the last one i sunk, was no more sunk but the torpedo used were really used.

As i have a savegame just before sinking the 2nd tanker, i loaded it. My torpedo stock come back to 5 , and the tanker is still here, but at the same place of the first one. Si finally i sank twice time the same tanker. Strange.

Perhaps i due to the fact i was submerged when i saved it, but with 5 destroyed around me , i could not surface to save .

[GeneralLawson]

Game crashed, and now every time I try to load the last save, it crashes right before loading. Even when I load a save from an hour and a half before the last one. Grr.

[Trevally.]

Have you installed or removed any mods from when the problem started

Have the same kind of problem with my version, Steam wants to instant framework 2. Has it not necessary on my vista 32 bits i found a "dirty" workaround.

In the "48110_install.vdf" at the SH5 root directory, i delete all reference to the framework installation:

"WindowsInstaller_x86"
{
"Requirement_OS"
{
"Is64BitWindows" "0"
}
"Process 1" "%INSTALLDIR%\\redist\\WindowsInstaller\\Win32\\Ne tFx20SP1_x86.exe"
"Command 1" "/q"
"NoCleanUp" "1"
}
"WindowsInstaller_x64"
{
"Requirement_OS"
{
"Is64BitWindows" "1"
}
"Process 1" "%INSTALLDIR%\\redist\\WindowsInstaller\\Win64\\Ne tFx20SP1_x64.exe"
"Command 1" "/q"
"NoCleanUp" "1"
}

[DenRJ]

Maybe I am not clear about the title of this thread !!!!!
After reading pages after pages of posts I see people posting about problems and then listing half a page of mods on the stock game. Then 2 posts later they figured out that the mods were improperly installed.
Well I thought this is a thread with the stock game. Yes we all know there are lots of problems with it. Nonetheless I want to play with the stock game.

Or?

The 'correct' order as mentioned by TDW in another thread is now:
IRAI
FX Update
New UIs

The New UIs thread is out of date, has been for a while - and this confusion keeps popping up. Can't find the post to link to it, but this is correct for now, at least until TDW says otherwise.
