I played this mod mainly for the detailed full interiors but it is a real biatch to make it work... yesterday it worked almost flawlessly. Today, with the exact same setup it CTD all the time, no exceptions, whenever i want to try a single mission (I didn't even bother with career mode)


I know there is the full interior mods for the VIII out there but I really love the IID and IX, it's such a pity this megamod is sooooooo temperamental

It is a temperamental beast, agreed. But when it does work, it is a visual gratifying experience.

I just run single missions when I do play WAC, the CTD issue foregoes trying to do a career.

This mod really needs some TLC on a revamp, needs to be placed on a diet of sorts.

I start and run early war careers on this Mod. I also have a Black Sea Career in progress too. Haven't had any issues with this MOD SOUP set-up :

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[D:\SHIII-WAC5.02\MODS]

WarAceCampaign 5.0
WarAceCampaign 5.0 Patch_5.2
M.E.P v6
M.E.P v6 - VisualSensors for WAC v5.2
M.E.P v6 - FSF
WAC5.0 Subpens_Ambient_Light
WAC5.2 Black Contacts
WAC5.01 Realistic Hull Damage
WAC5.2 H.sie Supplement to V16B1
WAC5.2 Campaign_Black_Sea
WAC5.2 Campaign_Black_Sea_WS_Loading_Pictures
DGUI_1920x1080_for_WAC5.2_ProPo
DGUI Black Sea


When I first set WAC 5.2 up, I had the "black terrain" bug (that's what I call it).I tried many solutions but someone suggested that I use M.E.P. v6, and presto, it was fixed.

On another note, arn't the ports just amazing !!!

if you want to play with the interiors you absolutely have to use
DGUI_1920x1080_for_WAC5.2_ProPo
but I have never succeeded in a total career without encountering problems..

I'm using this one, the problem seemed to be the 5.2 patch somehow. Haven't managed to get the black sea campaign to work yet

hy
I got it to work but not completely...
maybe jerry can help you
Because I haven't played it for a long time...
Hansolo no longer seems active on the project...
if I can give any advice, skip over a few cooler things, don't waste your time with WaC 5.2...
switch to Onealex mod... or Fifi's fabulous NYGM which continues to improve..
or Enhanced GWX from Toyotagt86 ...
these mods are perfect is easy to use and they work perfectly
I recommend NYGM by Fifi, moreover, he is currently working on the Black Sea version as well as the Mediterranean.. that is to say..
Fifi is a very experienced modder and I weigh my words... you won't regret it...
Sincerely Kal Maximus U669

After talking about WAC5.2, I figured I've got a few hours to play my Black Sea career in WAC5.2. I mainly play OneAlex, NYGM Enhanced (can't wait for the new campaign files) and Toyotagt86. I must a jinxed myself. I'm stuck at 0 degrees N/S and 0 degrees E/W. Basically at the corners of the Equator and the Prime Madeiran. The only thing I did (that I can remember) is delete non-Black Sea careers. I'll try to figure this out tonite.

Kal Maximus has great advice

Got it fixed. I started a non-Black Sea Career, Saved. Added the Black Sea Mods, back via JSGME. On my 2nd patrol. All is good. I don't know, but it works. Come on Fifi ... LOL.
