SH5: Bugs, glitches, and issues thread

[stoianm]

try to install the optional mod of the dinamic env brighter nights and leave your monitor on the normal gamma value

[SalmonVGM]

Hmm, hasn't had any effect. And it's definitely not my gamma settings as I never fiddle with them but tried turning it all the way down anyway as a test and it was still abnormal.



The buttons came out on the printscreen but in game the gamma setting was so low they were just black.

EDIT:
Oh and I should mention these effects only occur underwater. Above water it looks fine, but makes using a periscope almost impossible!

[SalmonVGM]

Well I really want to fix this, for obvious reasons, so i've been searching through the silent hunter 5 directory and found hdr_underwater.cfg

looks like this:

[ColorCorrectionFilter]
Gamma=0.85
Brightness=0.68
Saturation=1.0
Contrast=0.85
LevelsInputBlack=0.11
LevelsInputMidtone=0.85
LevelsInputWhite=0.87
LevelsOutputBlack=0.0
LevelsOutputWhite=1.0
ColorBalanceR=0.1
ColorBalanceG=0.75
ColorBalanceB=0.1
ColorBalanceTone=0.5
HueColor=FFFFFF00
HueOpacity=0.0
PhotoFilterColor=6DA9A200
PhotoFilterIntensity=1.0

Anyone know if that's abnormal?

Hi folks
Even after I read all the warnings about SH5 I bought the game. Got it real cheap, about $5+ (guess it's not selling too well). Anyway it looks almost life like in my machine. Everything runs great with the exception of trying to load a game from a patrol. The loading just freezes and that's it, nothing more happens; I have to get out by terminating the game from Task Manager. This has me really fustrated; I've not been able to play it like you folks. I have it running with the patch and the only MODS using are Silent Fire SH5 1.1 and Loading Screens. I had many more but de-activated them thinking it was a Mod issue. Any ideas?
These are my specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Intel Core i7 930@2.8GHz 2.80GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470
12GB Ram

Corrupt save file?
Try removing all mods, load your save as stock game.
Have you tried starting a new game?

[Mandiworld]

I have tried removing all MODS, have tried starting new games w/ different names, always when I load it freezes.

I have an I7 running at 4ghZ with 6 gigs of ram and an Nvidia GTX 480 and I also had some problems with game freezes and crashes until I installed 'antilag' and set FPS to 32 (as per stoianm's suggestion).

This seemed to solve the issues I was having although I still get a minor freeze on destruction of a ship for some reason, at least the game doesn't CTD any more.

My Mod list is as follows:

The time compression can really screw you up once after a patrol of the English coast i returned back to port but i had time compression on a pretty high number as i was tired and wanted to finish the patrol however the time compression would not stop so i ended up smashing my precious VIIA U-boat up luckilly i had saved but that was back at England so i sail across the North Sea again but then i had made a course error and accidently put my course into one of the islands that surround the entrance to the port because i was zoomed out and small islands don't show up so i rammed straight into it and then after my game crashed so i finished it the next day

Hi,

I just bought SH5 and I've found out that the majority of commands on the help file just don't work and show no clues as to get them to work.

Where is there a true HUD one with depth, course, and speed in one spot and with the ability to change them at will.

The manual says that the external gunners are characters to talk to and that one can get to the Flak gun and the Deck gun by picking TAB. TAB just takes me to the navigation map. I can't find any command to GET me to the gun sites.

Why can't the captain yell commands down the speaking tube or the open hatch from the bridge?

I paid a lot for this game on STEAM and I can't even find it on my computer. How can I mod the game?

HELP

follow the troubleshooting steps listed at bottom of post #1 of my UIs thread. You have a python error being thrown somewhere.
