I surface the boat and move to the radio room only to find the same thing! The Radio is not working.

Last but not least! LAG. I am on 40MG broadband and have never ever had such bad lag in any game! Could it be UPLAY?

Hi Lew and welcome to Subsim - the best community on the web

This sounds like you're running out of memory. You should have at least 4 GB

But - just to try you could increase your virtual memory from the current 2 Gb (= 2 x 1024 MB) to;
((2x1024 MB) x 1.5) = 3072 MB

As for the lag - are you playing online?
Anyway, I don't think this is because of UPlay

> try this one d3d Antilag

It can make your gameplay smoother, keeps the FPS under a given level and you avoid jumping FPS up and down.
This is not an ordinary mod that you activate with JSGME! Make sure you read the 'readme.txt' file.
The d3d Antilag comes with just two files (antilag.cfg & d3d9.dll)
You put them in the 'C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5' folder. That's all

To start with I recommend you try these values in the 'antilag.cfg' file (open with e.g. note pad);

RenderAheadLimit=1
FPSlimit=34

When you're done make sure you save it in the same format (.cfg)

If you still get lag >
RenderAheadLimit=0
FPSlimit=33

Try other settings of your choice.
The RenderAheadLimit heavy on your RAM and CPU
The FPSlimit determines the maximum FPS and you should keep it >33<40 to get SH5 smoother

Still - to avoid lag and to get most out of SH5 I'm sure you really should get yourself more RAM. I recommend at least 8 GB.Memory is quite cheap these days.

Please report back captain
