SH5: Bugs, glitches, and issues thread

[Gamali]

yes i know, but i was going to install a mod requierd version 1.2. So I ran the updater and it told me there was an update to install and asked me if I wanted to do that, so I did and here we are...

[andrescopeland]

Having been an avid fan of sh3 and shv4 (modded out of course!!!) I decided to take the plunge and try sh5 even though the reviews have not been excellent to say the least....... I have a sony vaio and although i exceed the recommended specs when I am inside the boat there is a horrible lag (doesnt happen on the bridge or external but does happen when I am docked!!!!). Is there a fix to this or am I just going to have to wait until I upgrade my laptop ( wont be happy so someone please cheers me up!!!) Computer specs are as follows.

Win vista, 4g ram, intel core duo cpu p8400 @2.26 ghz (2cpu's) ~ 2.3 ghz, direct x version 11, nvidia geforce 9300m gs

Thanks in advance!!!!

So here is a little list of problems i've found with the game, hopefully someone can make some suggestions.


1) Sub doesn---8217;t maintain a depth: for example, i'll hit dive to 100 and it just keep diving. Is there a fix for this?

2) No "maintain current depth" button

3) When a DC explodes near me I don't notice a sizeable shake considering I just had explosives go off near me. At one point it said I sustained damage but no shake at all.

4) Ships don't accurately sink. They don't roll over or really sink to the one side that I just put three torpedoes into.

5) The HP system for sinking ships really isn't realistic at all, is there a why to make ships sink more by flooding and how many holes I punch into it?

6) Can't stop the flak and deck guns from firing, i'd like them to stop firing to converse ammo but they seem to be too trigger happy, is there a way to stop this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. - Thanks!!

Should also note that i'm using a Steam Version of the game, not sure which version.

I just dont have time to give out a direct link, but all these point are addressed already by mods.. head over the Mods section and browse it, eventually you will find them.

For pt 2, make sure you are patched to 1.2
For pt 6, jut press F5 to stop the killing frenzy.

Hope that somebody else have time to help you more.

Nothing like this has been released yet!
But there are a few people with a WIP mod to increase the shakes from DC.

I have been having some video issues with SH5, and after reading this thread and forums have not seen any similar problems. Maybe someone can figure it out or make some suggestions. I am running an ASUS EAH6970 card with 2 gigs of ram, and the latest drivers. I have upgraded the drivers 3 or 4 times since the card's release but nothing seems to help.

Greetings.


Well I finally broke down and bought SH5. And from the get go it has not been a good go so far. The problem I am running into. I downloaded from ubishop While downloading bout 13% thru get a checksum error message about a router, which is odd seeing as how I don't have a router. Finished download. Tried to install. Which went thru, went to start and it downloaded 1.2 Then I get the error The application failed to initialize properly. (0xc0000142)

And this is where I am stuck. Bought it yesterday, redownloaded it same error message, same message. I did have daemon tools installed, which I have removed, not sure if this would cause a conflict or not. Is there anyway to contact ubisoft? AS there support forum is lacking lol. Thanks for any help.

My SH5 keeps crashing. I have mods that are shown in this thread -> http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=184662 PLUS antilag mod. When I am on patrol it just randomly crashes on desktop. No warning or error message or anything and ubi launcher acts like I had closed the game like normal (syncronising saved games ect).

[THE_MASK]

What are your computer specs ?

Do you have patch 2 for Magnum Opus?
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=176123

Patch 2 fixes the CTD from the tga file in the environment mod (included in MO).

Patch 2 (EVERYONE needs this patch even those just downloading the mod for the first time!)

[ottomanne]

Yes I have the patch 2 installed. I installed the environment mod over patch 2 so it might be the problem. I will try install environment mod first next time. Let see what happens

Edit: Hmm no more crashing. Thanks for the advice

Hi there, hate to be another one of those people who has a problem and just throws themselves at the community to solve it, but I have a problem :P

I went into external cam to watch my boat dive from a destroyer and the water wasn't the usual green but bright white. I've disabled all my mods, and the problem persists.



anyone got any advice? The problem doesn't manifest itself in any other way, except that when I left base and went into external cam I could move the camera just under the sea bed, but wasn't concerned about it at the time and pretty sure they're not related.

Thanks.

[SalmonVGM]

Hmmm, anyone got any ideas. It's pretty disconcerting playing like this. It may be something to do with the brightness setting as at night it's almost impossible to see anything, how could I alter this?
