CTD

[pinner2010]

There are five points that baffle me, I was wondering what the answers could be.
1. I always end up starting out at Keil, not Memmel on the first mission?
2. How do you regulate speed when using the Snorkel to stop the Chief Engineer constantly calling out the speed in knots, as speed appears to settle at approx 13 knots, not 10 Knots and can not be regulated via keyboard or mouse and are frozen when using the Snorlel?
3. Using GFP V 164, I have patched items under 7 headings, not 9 headings as mentioned previously by THEBERBSTER.? I wonder what I am missing.
4. Do I leave off starshell patch or put it back on?
5. I have on Kreigsmarine grid mod but I does not give me a grid reference layout in my main map. Am I missing something in the mods?

[THEBERBSTER]

I do not use this as I am on 7-4-2 but I think this mod breaks down a grid into sectors.

Sjizzle's - MarineQuadrat Charts for NewUIs v. 0.00.2

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=204617


Sjizzles charts contains a grid map.

OHII has a big grid map

Does this do anything different?

Current Activated Mods.

1: fubar re-install or adding mods and oh 2.5 before doing 'stock career' initial mission we call 'the tutorial' you have vanilla game patched to vs 1.2

Choose new career, do this and dock at kiel, then exit after nice chat/listen in bunker, then you add mods and of course oh 2.5 then comes into play and you again start a new career but under the new oh2.5

2: no idea, not got far enough to gain snorkel, sorry

3: either wrong version or skipped two inputs (easy enough to do lol)

4: the patch for starshell did nowt for me, got lag when they fired but no ctd, ended up editing (again, easy enough)

5: with sjizzles 4 maps added, goto main map (M key, i only have this map enabled) you see under ships journal, that's for the new maps etc, called 'toggle charts visibility'

Click that icon, you get 2 boxes, these are draggable and expandable, i drag n set down bottom left

Default is flags, scroll top box options down to Maps n tick it, lower box opens with the map options, mouse wheel and scroll few down to dar or light grid

On map u then drag/expand one of those to get grid ref, to check grid ref needed check 'captains log' it should say area grid

I can upload for you all bits needed and pm link if you want ?

I am in all day and can talk you through a working fresh install if needbe

[Defiance]

This is how i do a fresh re-install, also worked for a guy in the week, we did his install over teamspeak

Install game n patch to 1.2

Sort game settings etc to your liking

Choose new career, go through the motions of sinking sitting ducks and dock at kiel, i grab a tea while captain n officer chat etc, then don't save game as it's auto bunker saved

Exit game

Make a folder in main sh5 directory where you would normally open/install jsgme, call it 'MODS' just like jsgme will want to later on (do not put anything in it)

Generic patch, do to suiting etc, if not 9 items something's wrong again !!

Rename your empty mods folder 'MODS' to say 'MOD'

Now copy/paste jsgme installer to main sh5 directory, same place you made that mods folder, now jsgme will make it's own 'MODS' folder

Install and run file viewer, this and patcher i make folders for each and have them in my docs folder, called 'generic patcher' and 'options viewer' so obviously it's easy to find/use them

Go through options file viewer and if decksawash etc is enabled in patcher enable all same in here

Make sure all your mods you in are properly expanded (mod name/data/etc/etc) copy n paste mods into that :'MODS' folder in main sh5 directory

Delete the origianl mods/mod folder you had

If you have a saved mep use it to install your mods, if not manually add them

Start new career which is now under control of oh2.5

You should be in mem not kiel

If anyone notices i've done sequence wrong shout out, i kinda rushing through things lol

Many thanks, Peter, me old matey. Sorry Admiral, Sir.
Graham.

[pinner2010]

Many thanks Def. I am at present tied up fixing a few problems on a neighbours ancient computer, lol; it has a "return to Noah, c/o The Arc sticker on the side, as opposed to a Windows sticker" As soon as I am free from this job, I will get straight on to your most helpful suggestions.

Many thanks for giving me some of your time and advice.

Graham.

[pinner2010]

Hi Admiral.
Followed your instructions more or less to the letter and ended up still shipping out of keil not Memel for the baltic campaign. Total waste of time and any further effort on my part.
In clearing out the game and clean installing the game, plus cleaning out the mods folder and reinstalling all with a new JSGME installation, I gained two items not seen for a long time; namely nautical Wolf's correct colours on the torpedos and at last, the kreigsmarine grid reference on the Navigation map.
In return I gained CTD (2) on the Baltic campaign which I have never had previously. If I am getting CTS's at this stage, it bodes ill for later on in the game.
I had considerable more success when playing the stock game, achieving 4 million grt.
Have been trying to sort out this menagerie of mods for two years now with little success and i have reached a point of no return. No game is worth this misery, therefore it's into the dustbin with this game as I have found it to be unplayable.
Nevertheless, I have had the pleasure and the priviledge of meeting some superb gentlemen within this forum at Subsim, yourself and the Berbster included for which i am truely greatful.

Good hunting to you all.
kindest regards.
Graham.

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi Graham

Just finished the Baltic Campaign and I also got 2 ctd's.

I know one was because I sank a ship with gunfire inside one of the harbours.

Looking at the dgbview it would appear that it could not plot a destroyed mark.

The other one no idea.

I did manage to get to Kiel for only the second time without a ctd.

I would like to think that this mod may have helped as I noticed to day where I was only getting 15 to 20 fps from Kiel I am now getting 40 fps

sobers OH2.5 Kiel Lite mod v4 SH5

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=4511

The other thing is if you are going to get a ctd it will mostly likely be in the Danzig Bay area.

I do not worry about it any more with this campaign as I am half expecting it.

Peter

[Defiance]

Graham,

If you have a headset, i'll talk to through it all in realtime any evening you want

It's a lot easier this way

If no headset, i'll try to explain a bit better, and with less mods to see what the ctd is

I think i know why you're starting at kiel not memel, i got one install where i always started at wilhemshaven i think it was and not kiel lol

######################################

Save copy/paste your 'MODS' folder from sh5 instalation folder, delete the three non mods in it (the jsgme cfg etc)

Remove the game using control panel/programmes etc

Goto your docs folder, make sure the whole sh5 folder there is deleted

Go into hardrive where the whole ubisoft folder is and delete the whole thing

I use x64 w7 so i delete all ubisoft folders in user/prog files/prog files x86 etc

Download the ubiplay from ubisoft site (faster than game auto-updating later on)

Reboot

Install game and then the games patch (1.2)

Start game choose your options for setings etc, vid settings iirc need game close/open to take effect

Start game goto new career, do the tutorial mission, i know it can be dull and boring)

When back in kiel wait and chill while the captain etc chat, whack kettle on and have a cuppa char

After all the chatting's stopped, exit game

Make a folder in sh5 directory called 'MODS' place in jsgme (link is here as mine works fine) http://www.mediafire.com/download/9b...sgme_setup.rar

Extract this to desktop, take the extracted setup and place in main sh5 folder (where you made the mods folder)

Now goto your docs folder, sh5 folder data/cfg/CareerHistory.cfg

Open with notepad, make sure the last line reads 'HasCompletedTutorial=true'

Exit or exit/save if you amended it

Now if you are wanting to use tdw's generic patcher, install it and make sure if you're using the latest you end up with 9 lines of items (9 from top to bottom not the old 7)

Sort that etc and exit patcher, rem decksawash if enabled you also have to enable in options viewer later to match

Now if you have added generic patcher, you can now delete the mods folder you made, run the jsgme setup from main sh5 folder, it will want to make a folder also called mods hence why i say delete after adding generic patcher

Now you have that all done, hopefully jsgme has made a s/cut on desktop

Open jsgme with s/cut to make sure she's ok then exit it

Now copy paste your saved mods into the mods folder jsgme created, do not enable any, but start jsgme to see all mods are now in on the left side and exit

If so, we're cooking with gas

Now run the options file viewer, sort as you want (i save my .py and shove it in my newui data/scripts etc, so it's my usual one, always inside my newui's (if that makes sense)) and exit

Link to test 17 newui's ...... http://www.mediafire.com/download/li..._Version_17.7z

Played Tut = yep
Checked HasCompletedTutorial=true = yep

Now alter this in sh5 docs folder /data/cfg/main.cfg
[DEVELOPING]
Modding=Yes
MenuEditor=No
DebugScripts=Yes
(save/exit)

Jsgme installed and mods folder made = yep
Placed your mods in mods folder = yep
Installed generic patcher (optional, but fixes so many things))
Installed options file viewer (makes sense)

Above was in no order just a checklist ##############

Now i want you to enable the NewUIs_TDC_7_5_0_TheDarkWraith_Test_Version_17 in jsgme
(dl and install if needbe0

And just following the OH2.5 and then the grid fix patch

So only mods now enabled are
newui's
oh2.5
oh2.5 grid patch

Start game, new career, you should see the open horizons logo in green top left iirc

Choose highlighted game (1st left one should be bright)
Choose settings, now i use real 100% so my settings never fubar, from what i read if not realistic your settings won't fully 'stick' need to press esc or somert (read up to make sure)

Now click start etc

In bunker, go in to see what mission option is, do not accept, just skip intro and exit to get you back in the bunker

Check game settings here

Click load, choose the last saved in bunker (or what it says can't rem exactly offhand)

Now go into choose mission, come out and you will be back in bunker, now start mission

You should be at memel (i forgot to state you need to goto choose mission.decline/exit to main game part, load last baunker save, choose mission, start

I think this is why you don't start at memel



If that does not work and you have a headset, lemme know, i can honestly talk you through it easier.faster and get you up n running

If all's ok though, exit, and sort all your mods, start game, another new career (for real this time with all mods) and enjoy

Only too happy to chat you through it, really easier than trying to follow endless text

Teamspeak is free, won't harm pc and you can remove asap games sorted

Think i got it all this time

[Defiance]

We are using many differing mods

But also some quite common ones

Try to alter your matching mods to the sequence as i have them, obviously ignore my menu/sound mods

(also, the subflags i cannot seem to initially start with them so ignore as i add later in game)

After that, just keep on adding your differing mods until you really get a certain mod causing ctd's

The initial baltic operations mission can give ctd/s so stick with it

But really if you're still getting only 7 options in patcher and not the full new 9 then something's awry

Don't give up, honest since being back i've spent months chasing down probs fromn runtimes to mods to now darn gpu driver crashes lol

When you get it stable you'll have a bitter taste in your mouth over wasted time and agro but a smile on your face with a playable sim

You two are amazing! You never stop in your ability to want to help a fellow mariner (sufferer) in distress. How the hell can I not continue to get this sorted out after your last instructions and guidance, not to mention the two years of invested time I have spent already?

Hi Def.
I have added TeamSpeak.

Heya,

What i'll do is upload and pm you a link with the whole lot of them mods in

I maybe won't be able to fully upload until 6ish tonight, but hopefully i have time now (life's a bit hectic again here lol)

But i'll up em asap

The teamspeak is easy, ts3 client i used

Besides not using voice activated (i chose a key input for mic) it's as simple as i remember to use

Installing/helping on sh5 with ts is fast

(if you have enough space or better still another hardrive, copy all the dvd contents into a folder there, makes things happen faster as dvd/bluray are slow compared to hdd to hdd) not a must though so don't panic

TS ftw lol

Ok cool

i'll find a link for ts and hope he don't mind lol
