I am also sorry to say I am having CTDs. I tried the fixes posted - still ctd.

I was having a second problem - I was getting graphic white outs with things like the clock or weapons screen. I am running vista 32bit and have read this may all be a memory page issue.

I not sure if this mod is causing my ctd, but without it both the above problems stop.

Trevally, I also had the same issue many times and I got many ctd's where the source of the problem was pointed out to be some dll .. as far as I remember was something related to directX. But first, check your program list and make sure there is no new version of Microsoft Visual C++ installed over the default one installed by SH5. That will crash your game no matter what, 99% of any SH5 ctd is caused by this problem. If ur not sure anymore which one is the right version for SH5, just unintall al C++ and install it again from the SH5 dvd.

TDW.. is that screenshot made with this mod only or is something more added? I never saw such a huge water splash in the game and also only in heavy storms I got green water. That pic looks just fantastic :P

Thanks Magnum, I will try that.

For anyone else with ctds check this thread:-

it's the mega-mod compilation (with some tweaking and massaging by me). Environment 4.0 is part of it

Why not make it available to all of us, like your other WIPs (now obviously integrated into your mega-mod compilation)?
I'm sure many of us would like to do their own massaging, too.

That bow splash screenshot of yours is just sooo tantalizing!

Will there be a version with env. gold also? I know it´ll be a pita to recheck all those combinations so I basically know the answer.

Hey , call it SH5 Major Overhaul Package by TDW.

Sad news !

But this mean that there is other reasons/problems than the "ClimateZones.tga" with illegal red value, that cause CTD on your system.

I suppose you have already identified that it is really this "W_clear" mod who cause the CTD. Now, it would be nice if you could isolate which part(s) of the mod is(are) involved in these crashes. I say "involved" and not "guilty", because it is most probably a problem of compatibility. Not everbody seem to suffer of CTD with this mod (me, for example). But, nevertheless, if the problem can be isolated, there is maybe a way to overturn it ?

Maybe "W_clear" can publish here, a list of the goups of files constituing each modifications of the whole mod, so you can remove modifications, group by group, and determine which one still provoke your CTD.

It may be many things but I made a decision to use another mod until this is sorted out in the future. Thanks.

Yesterday I was reporting that I still had CTD with this mod (and ACSoft fix). I then was advised to check my C++ files.
This did not fix my problem, so I removed env4 again.

This did not fix my CTDs either. In the past it always had

After lots of testing and reloading I ended up having to remove both the enviro4 and steels1.2

After I did this I then discovered the cause of my CDTs = 2 large convoys within the 30km loading radius. With 1 convoy everthing is ok but as soon as there are 2 my system gives up.

I guess my comp specs are working on the edge. When this happens I can get passed it by removing any mods that may demand more of my system than it can handle.

I am sorry for reporting here that this mod was causing my CDTs as it was not.

I need to look at upgrading or a new system

[stoppro]

I too have had cdt with all versions of eviro mod but it looks so good i keep experimenting with different mod orders but have had no luck so far

[DavyJonesFootlocker]

Only when I removed the mod no more CTDs.

Gulp--now I'm getting nervous. Anyone: Do the following system specs look adequate for avoiding this kind of problem?

Intel Core i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.2GHz
3072MB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 220
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

Ace climatezone fixes CTD. Works fine around Lorient where it has always crashed with W_clears climatezone.tga

Good work Ace!
