LoooooL.
After disableing mods via JSGME i allways let steam check the original Stockdata in case JSGME hasnt removed everything, or not fully reloading/ reestablishing the original from its Backup folder. For silent hunter 4 steam allways tells me that 343 files could not be found and are again reuploaded. And sure enough the altered Sh4.exe (LAA). Became a freeze as soon as "No mission, too complicated" came up. Tried different boats, imperial measurements. But then i took a step aside and tried some thsinking.

Rats!
I just now ried to zero base this thing by deleting my SH4 game file from G:Games/Ubisoft and from the Documents folder. This should have taken care of any traces of history, right?
Assuming that is so, I copied my pristine v1.5 from my safe place back to G:Games/Ubisoft, and set the Read Only box to unchecked for all files and folders. I ran LAA to set the value to True for SH4.exe, and then extracted the new FOTRSU 1.7 to the MODS folder in the game file and then activated the mod via JSGME. So at this point I should have a clean install of SH4 v1.5 plus the FOTRSU v1.7 mod, with no SH$ directory in the Documents folder, and with LAA activated. I started the game, noting the new V1.7 Splash screen and the rapid load time, and set the Sound, Graphic, and Gameplay options from the main menu. Then exited the game to Windows. Next came a restart of the game to verify the graphics settings were there, and started a new career in the Asiatic fleet. Assigned to USS Seal (SS-183). Set my mission options in the office, got an assignment to patrol the Convoy College area of the Luzon Strait, and took off from outside the harbor. I made the usual setting changes for torpedos, AA gun, etc., set a course, and went to Full Speed ahead. Note the "strange" appearance of the map - no topography or colors. So, once again I followed the course, and once again, at about 25.1 NM WNW of the end of Corregidor Island the game crashed to desktop. I have no idea what is going on or what I missed. I'm considering scrubbing the whole thing, rebooting, and starting from zero. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

not sure if you are familiar with British humor but there are a lot of Monty Python fans in the SH4 forum which would account for the oddness of some of our posts. i'll say this and then finish the post: of all of the guys who post answers to your questions (or ask probing questions in pursuit of answering your questions), none will be rude. stick with it and you should have hours of fun. or weeks of maddening frustration. (see what i mean).

Is it just me having not enough sleep or does the graphic look "sharper".
Works great so far, just wondering what the yellow strings are for: https://ibb.co/drw67tx |

Those line signify 15 degrees of longitude, and approximate one hour time zone lines. There is a purple line, not as easy to see, that denotes a simplified IDL, mostly on the 180 mark. |

Just wanted to write, that i thoght the purple line would be the ... ---> typed "Datumsgrenze" in the dic. and got "International Date Line <IDL>".
Cool addition with the yellow lines. Yes sometimes it is very irritating to have many different times of sunset all over the pacific ocean. |

In theory, if all parts of the game work correctly and we don't abuse the TC level, sunrise / sunset will be at nearly the same "base time" during the entire patrol. If you want to know what one fellow was "sinking", you could read through Front Runner's Base Time 2018 thread. We do fall off into the weeds into the wee rabbit hole to go visit Alice a few times, but suffice to say, if you depart Pearl, in theory, you will stay on that time. Cross the IDL, and it is now tomorrow. From there on, I get mixed-up as to whether to keep subtracting an hour at each line... lol but it you get an historic moon cycle thingie, you can plan your attacks a little better... maybe. Me? I sink as often as I sink - I stink... where is the confounded Coast Guard?...
