Had the same , if you install the directx9c shared previously , you will not run into to that....just install it and try one more time

Re: Scapa Flow CTD

Tested Scapa Flow mission several times now and without any issues.
I was blown out of the water several times by floating mines and coastal defenses but there was no CTDs... I'm pretty much sure now that we are not dealing with the problem caused by megamod's files....

My guess is that colision with floating mine will crash your game from some reason but I'm not sure exactly why. This could indeed be system related (DirectX) issue like Wolfbaron suggested...

Possible solutions:
- Update your DirectX from link provided in the first post
- Reduce graphic settings (especially particle effects)

Last Update of my DirectX 14.4.2017,but I use a DX 11 system.
My System Win 8.1 64 bit never have any problems to handle this game.
No problems in scapa with Twos 1.06.12 - all worked correctly.
Avoiding all minefields I give it a second try.
Ctd on same position - the last thing I see in the Peri was a starshell,
exactly in this moment Sh5 go to desktop.

I just installed the new V2.0 on: WIN10 64bit, 1080GTX

A tip for your first page (help page for installation): It didn't work anymore on my PC. But after setting compatibility to WIN7 and admin rights, it worked! Maybe a good workaround for others.

I wanted to thank you again too. Unbelievable what you are doing to the community!!!

TWoS 1.06.12 and 2.0 are pretty much the same...
I need a gamesave.
A starshell from where?
What position?
Did you try to install DX9.0c?

And people (to all TWoS user with problems), if you really wish certain problem solved, please use "How to report an issue" link in my sig because, AFAIK, the problem doesn't exist until I can reproduce it and it is most likely (like countless times before) user/system related...

Some Win10 user say that compatibility settings aren't needed at all?

I know but for me it didn't work without compatbility mode. I only wanted to share this info with you. Maybe this could be a solution for others too. Game started without but stayed black, no menu was coming. With the mode set to WIN7 it worked. Just to let you know...

Default 1 constant annoying bug , or i think it is

Description : losing chosen camouflage

- i equip the u-boat camouflage , start a new patrol it is not there instead the default one is

why i disregard it , because i know the fix is to simply save game while out of port and then load , you will get the camouflage back on

but any one experienced that
