Good to hear! Now that I have the patch for my interior mod finished, I will switch over to working on the fix for the whole map for Env3.1. When I am finished with that, I have got to make another attempt at improving the in game shadows while still using less system resources(it is really bugging me how many folks get FPS drop).

It's because of your longitudinal distance from home. Your clock stays at home port time so as you travel further away it gets out of synch. It was a pretty common/realistic issue to deal with in SH4 when your sub was set to Pearl Harbor time and yet you were patrolling past the dateline and a couple time zones over in Japan.

Thanks Capt Jack Harkness, I was unaware of that Issue. Never occured to me that time zones were present in the Silent Hunter series. |

Never really occured to me either Thanks for the help though Is it possible to set the clocks to the timezone you're in?
I don't think they actually implemented but rather it was a side effect of W_clears impressive work

Ok, I have done a fix for the whole map for Env3.1. Hopefully this will totally stop the CTDs. I would like for anyone who can to do a little bit more testing to make sure that this works. Then I will ask W_clear to include in another version.

Now there's something I never thought of! In SH4 I always just learned to cope with the difference... Maybe if TDW has some spare time he could put together a script for it, perhaps even with a label for what zone you're in...

I think with this ClimateZones.tga that no one will get CTDs anywhere at any time compression(even when greater than 1024). Several folks have tested it, and the fix works, but I would not mind even more people trying it just to make absolutely sure. W_clear, you are more than welcome to include this new ClimateZones.tga in any future versions. I would also like to apologize to everyone for not simply fixing this the first time. I simply had no way to know that it would cause problems since it does not give me CTD(and I routinely run at 2048 TC).

Hey Steel, just tried your most current fix for the climate zones.
At TC of 2048 I CTD'ed between Dover and Calais. At TC of 1024 I did not receive a CTD, although I hit a major lag spike and dropped from 65FPS to 8FPS, but I'm sure that's because of the ships in the straight. More to Come Wolf

No problem Viking, glad to help, and the low FPS were like 10 patrol boats and an escorted convoy all in that area.
