Fantastic release...just the 1.14 compilation in one single installation.

Some comments about sone bugs...in this pack the clock looks corrupted when the resolution is 1280 x 1024; (i.e. the needles are out of the sphere). In my old version downloaded from russian site, with a different type of clock, everythink was ok.

In the type IX interior, the sailors in charge of the depth are sitting in the opposite side of the control room. This bug was already present in the previous 1.14 version; maybe it is possible to switch them off?

Besides these graphical clitches, this is a fantastic job, the best compliaton for the simulation of the battle of the Atlantic. Thanks a lot!

Agree. This is an awesome game. I've had no problems downloading and installing. JSGME is already installed, and two mods are already activated. The sound is epic! There are nice selections in the radio and the gramaphone, too

A few bugs, here and there, but they're not stopping the game from running smoothly. The one bug that bothers me a bit is that the mission objectives are in Russian in the English version. But other than that it's great!

Edit: Nevermind, I found it. It's in bridge station commands, the furthest icon to the right. I'll leave this here in case somebody has the same problem finding it.

As for me, take your time, no hurry. Most of the campaign orders have a grid coordinate so I know where to go.

I do have a question: Is there a key or an icon where a person can switch torpedo loading style? From automatic to manual. I load different types of torpedoes. I want to be able to control which type of torpedo I choose when reloading.

You did a great job, man. :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up: It'll be a miracle if I can pry myself away from the computer today! :Kaleun_Cheers:

OK...

For if anyone is having the same trouble with the chronometer that I had, I fixed it simply deleting the file "Chronometer.dds" from the folder "..\KSD-II Adversaries\Data\Menu\KSD_Main_interface\Chronomet er (and leaving there all the other).

And I recovered the U-Jagd variant...:D

If anyone has the steam version like me and tries to copy the sh4.exe to the KSD Folder and gets a error. You have to copy the KSD files from your KSD installation to the steam folder of your game where the sh4.exe is located. It seems like you can run the steam exe only from this folder.

Fellow captains!

I am excited to hear that this game has impressed you so much. It is a result of work of many like-minded men. We had an idea of a game that would unite all the submariners into one large community.
Right now it is all ready for you to play multiplayer missions – all together as a wolfpack or against each other in a team-versus-team matches.
Our work doesn`t stop here, though. Our next goal is to re-introduce the american submarines in the "USS addon", so you can play them in multiplayer as well.

I have to admit that my english is rather terrible. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
However, I happened to meet Erwin the fox, a good assistant of mine, and he is better at it for sure, so if you bump into some trouble, feel free to contact him at our Discord channel:

KSD-II

Here you can chat, upload screenshots of your battle feats, schedule streams and arrange multiplayer matches as well.

To launch the game you need to copy SH4.exe from steam version of the game. If you are having any trouble with it, you can ask me for help by PM.

I have heard that some people had their games being installed incompletely. This may occur because I have set the file compression to maximal. I will look for an alternative methods of sharing the game, but for now you have to pay attention to the file sizes:
Total disk space required – 11.1 Gbytes
Disk 1 (setup) – 2.252 Gb.
Disk 2 = 2.252 Gb.
Disk 3 = 1.654 Gb.

So I seem to have an issue. Whenever I try to load into the museum, career or single mission I get a CTD after the 'please wait' screen. Running the game in comparability mode and as an admin. Using the DVD version of the exe. I uninstalled and reinstalled the game as well.

Any help would be appreciated! :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:

What exactly do you mean with "please wait screen". Do you mean after selecting to spawn outside or inside the harbor?

After the loading screen the Loading bar reaches 100% and then it says 'please wait' and I get a CTD before I load into the U-boat.

Sounds like people are having problems installing with Steam. Or maybe in general? This is a note for FYI purposes:

I originally purchased SH4 1.4 through Amazon-dot-com. The download from their site version, not the DVD. I used that source for this. I installed a clean new copy of SH4 in the C: folder. I then installed KSD II also in the C: folder, but in it's own folder, a completely separate one from the SH4 folder.

Then I copied S4.exe from the SH4 folder to the KSD II folder. I did not try to copy anything else from one folder to the other - from the SH4 folder to the KSD II folder or visa versa. I also patched KSD II with a 4gb app just to be on the safe side (this is not mentioned in the installation instructions, but something I wanted to do).

I bypassed going though the museum and started a career. It worked fine that way. I had a few problems with crashing, so I set compatibility to Windows 7. It has never crashed again. I assume it should work fine in the C: Program Files (x86) folder, too.

I do not know if a person needs the SH4 Steam version to play multi-player. But this way worked for me for playing solo.

Hope this helps somebody.

This morning I did a full reinstall of SH4 and moved the exe file to the Knights folder. The program opens up and when I picked a quick mission sim loads up and than ctd.I tried a campaign starting 9/39 and everything works ok except when the orders start typing out they are in Russian. I then watched the short movie and the load screen started than CTD again. This is Windows 10 but went into exe properties and set for win 7 and ran as administrator.

Thank you very much for all of your hard work. I am sad to ask for help as I am not very knowledgeable about PC programming.

I downloaded KSD-II Adversaries GE.exe file that is in the 2nd post of the Introduction to KSD threat. Completed download, file size 7,030,599 KB.

When I double-click to execute the file, I receive the following message from my operating system: "This app cannot run on this PC"

I am running Windows 10, 64-bit.

I went into the properties of the file and checked the box to run the file as me being the administrator and checked the box to run in Windows 7 and Windows XP compatibility modes.

I'd appreciate assistance.

It downloads as an .exe file, instead of a .7z file, so there is no way to unzip it.

The new download is "KSD-II_Adversaries_GE.exe". Shouldn't it be like "KSD-II_Adversaries_GE.7z" ??

Then one could unzip in the usual manner and install it.

Alex Novoros had to send me the SHIV U-Play exe to make it work, as the regular exe from the "Silent Hunter IV Wolves of the Pacific" out of the box did not work on my machine.

This is an outstanding mode which is faithful to the Spirit of SHIII. This is what the old SHIII players were expecting when SHIV came out, but as you know, we got something different, not wrong, but different from our expectations of the time.

I feel like I am back in time in the good old days of SHII but much, much better. That felt nice for father's day.

Or Amazon or similar... The Amazon downloads used to not be too bad to deal with. Burn a copy of it to DVD for back-up, and don't lose the license email! I haven't seen a disk available anywhere for a while, but then again, I don't look for it too often...

My first box had it all too. Very impressive stuff... too bad half of what they said in the documentation just wasn't implemented yet. :arrgh!: But it was some nice, complimentary material. Diversionary tactics, though. I can't remember the version, but like v1.01 or similar. I can no longer find any of it. Been missing for about 10 years... That and my original SH3 are both lost - I suspect my brother... :har: - So I went out and got what turned out to be a v1.3 disk. Same big box, nothing in it other than the DVD case and disk. Paid the same price as the original one... I'm surprised there was even a disk case... :O: I finally gave up and broke down and bought the Uboat Missions from Ubisoft in like 2012. Just in the last few years I bought the Gold Edition because it was inexpensive, like "on sale" for $15 US... Much easier to deal with... :salute:

Where'd you find the "Kellermann," propbeanie? Is it a sub mod somewhere?

First time I've seen anything about it...

edit: adding; I found the readme file that mentions it, but no working file that references "Kellermann."

2nd edit: adding again; KELLERMANN is the "New TTÑ Submarine mod author." Only have found reference in the readme and credits file. credits file is located data > menu > credits

Looks like it's a mod that's coming in the future at some point.

All mods in Readme is pasted.

2nd edit: adding again; KELLERMANN is the "New TTÑ Submarine mod author." Only have found reference in the readme and credits file. credits file is located data > menu > credits

Looks like it's a mod that's coming in the future at some point.

Will we get the equipment names correct? I can help if you want the German or English terms for all the equipment available. For example the Wolves of Steel mod of SH5 uses the German names for equipment for better immersion.

One request for the next version: Could we get the SH3 soundtrack playing in the back instead of the SH IV soundtrack. The SH IV soundtrack is more fitting to US Fleet Boats not to German U-Boats. Should be easy to replace...


Another translation correction: This should be "Einsatzgebiet" instead of "Die Zone der Operation".

OK. This needs to be fixed. The new panel at the bottom blocks a person from activating some commands. Icons are hidden behind the new panel. See area that I circled in red. I looked through F1 help but did not see anyway of turning off the new panel.

Edit: added; also, the grey panel area to the right of the circled area blocks off icon(s?).

If that doesn't make sense, say so and I will reword.

Sorry for being a noob on this issue, but can somebody tell me what to do to fix?

Edit: Adding;

Nevermind. I did the instructions posted. Changed resolution to 1920,1000,60,22. It "stretched" the icons so I can see all of them now. Holy Moly, what a difference! It changed to full screen across, what a difference! Much better, TYVM.

2nd edit: adding again; a suggestion - in future versions or updates, change the resolution to the 1920,1000 setting so that people don't run into the same problem I did.

I am able to play SH4 ver. 1.5 at my monitors native resolution without any problems. Since I am unfamiliar with programming, I do not know if there is something in KSD-II that can be looked at to address this.

They're a bit busy developing the mod. Turms are found in the "Game / Data / Objects" folder generally, and could be copied into a separate mod, along with your submarines' UPC and EQP files, which would link the turms and equipment to the sub. Look in the current files for examples. There might be textures used on the turms & other gear down in the Texture folders, and other parts, such as guns up in the Library folder... :salute:

Hi all. :salute:
I just want to say that this is one of the best mods i have played in SH series, it is extremely well done mod, and im not an amateur in these games.

If someone is having crashes with startup you need to patch
sh4.exe with a tool called 4gb_patch.exe.

About the sound in the game...
I have been in audio editing for a quite a while and when i hear all those sound effects in SH series, they are very good...but complete mess, they are poorly mastered.
For example if you are in close range battle with other battleships that are firing at each other and you, there are so many sound effects that are overlapping with one another and it sounds like a mess...the DC sound is way too much loud it doesn't make any sense at all...and so on..
I have been fixing this for sometime now in Sh.sdl and with some new wave files..it sounds completely fresh and new and properly balanced...if some one is interested i can post this mod here.
Other than that, this mod is amazing!
And thanks to the guys who are translating the radio messages. Keep up the good work! :salute:

Hi.
Everything works fine here :hmmm:
Do you have patched sh4.exe with a 4gb_patch.exe?

Yes, I did. But I found out that your Invirement-Mod is the reason, because I have Forks-Invirement installed. Maybe I change them. So, all works fine now. Thank you.............

Kaleuns, what about progress of your work with translating from Russian to English files?
And second question - what are your plans for this awesome project? What upgrades are you working on?

I agree that KSDII is really awesome project.
Just an idea...maybe we can put the whole messagesGE text into an english translator and translate the whole thing?
I know that online translators are very limited to number of characters, but there are some professional software out there that can do that....
And then just copy paste it into messagesGE.txt?
Anyway just an idea...

I can do a few every so often. If we could get more people involved it would go a lot quicker.

I play KSD II and it's very promised project imo :up:

Some observations:
1. Shift+I for automatic identification of ships seems to be inactive - how to identify ship automatically? there is no buton for it
2. Deck gun fires too fast, like modern OTO Melara Super Rapid :)
3. Binocular and UZO view is a bit too small
4. Don't know what for is the button at the left side in periscope view, below recogniton book button
5. how to reduce sensitivity of mouse in periscope view? rotation of periscope is too fast

Hi all,

I'm back after several years of silent running, because this mod really raised my interest. Here is one piece of info that could speed up translation, hopefully. I didn't verify it myself, but it's worth a try.

There is a small app that does batch translations of documents, called Document Translator by MS. Here is the link to its description: https://blogs.microsoft.com/firehose/2015/07/14/got-a-big-batch-of-files-document-translator-app-takes-down-language-barriers-fast/ It needs dotnet 4.6.1 installed. Using it, you could translate in one go all the 1300+ .tsr files that contain Russian text, if you rename them into .doc files.

The problem is that, in order to use the app, you need to create a Microsoft Azure account, which in turn asks for a credit card number. What kept me from trying, is that - although the developer says you can use the Translator for free and won't charge the card - I am reluctant to entrust them this piece of info. So if anyone is willing to try...

And btw, congratulations to all those involved in bringing new breath to this unjustly disregarded gem that is SH4. Keep up the good work :Kaleun_Salute:

Can anyone help me with the Uplay SH4.exe? I have the steam version but I read that does not work and I tried joining the discord but any link that I found was dead unfortunately.

Edit:
If you are having issue with the SH4.exe, find the original Russian version of the first KSD II, without the Adversaries in its title.
You may have to use google translate but downloading that version contains the Uplay exe version which you can copy and paste into the Adversaries version of KSD II and it will work.
