I'm trying to help someone who is having some graphics problems with SH5. Sofar my few suggestions that I've offered have not helped. I was wondering if someone here at Subsim could help me out? below is what I know of his computer specs. Below that is a sample of his problem which is colored squares appearing in the game.

Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q9450 2,66GHz RAm 3Gb Windows 7 ultimate 64bits Nvidia Geforce 9800 GT




Thanks for your help in advance.

I managed to disable the text box displaying speed and range when you mouse over a ship, but i still get a little text saying Mechant or Warship. Is this also posible to disable? Basically i dont want to get any info on the navmap or the tactical map(exept stationary convoy info from radio).

Thanks for your help, enyoying serveral of your mods. Sorry for bordering on offtopic but guess this is the best place to ask now.

Yes, the squares appear before any mod. Downgrading the driwers made the squares reduce intensity, but not dissapear.

The mods are Shadow Improvement and Realism Environment. With those ones, the artifacts dissapeared from the sky (they were the same squares but blurred)

This was the reply I got from the fellow when I asked him about what mods he had used.

Volodya is right.

But this could be due to lack of memory.
Please let us know his computer specs, especially RAM
And - are these two mods really the only ones he is using?
Does he really know how to handle the JSGME?

And please check this;

As for the 'Shadow Improvement Mod' -
* Which shadow mod is he using? Shadow Improvement Mod or 'Shadow Super Improvement Mod by tonschk'?
* Ask him to disable the shadow mod he's using and let's see what happens and tell him to lower his 'Shadow' settings in the Main Menu/Graphics.
Shadow effects are very heavy on your CPU.

As for the 'Realism Environment' mod -
* Is it the 'Real Environment' mod he's running?
What happens if he runs the Dynamic Environment SH5 ? (I recommend this one )

And check that his game is patched to v1.2.0 If not > run the Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe

Try this and get back to us with his answers

BTW, why don't you just tell him to register and join us here. New mates are always welcome

Hello I´m the one cdrsubron7 is trying to help with the color squares. Sorry for the double post, as there´s another on this forum about this question. Thanks cdrsubron7 for your help, and please erase the other post on this forum if it´s not polite.

Silent Steel> thanks for your answer.

-The shadows on the game options are sett to off, as well as the AA.

-The mod I used is hadow Improvement Mod. After searching a bit, I can´t find any other and searching for 'Shadow Super Improvement Mod by tonschk" leads me to the same one.

-Yes, it´s dynamic environment and it´s patched to v1.2


-I used JSGME correctly, as mods as the clouds are easily checked at first sight, and also installing those mods have made a difference on the visuals, even if they couldn´t remove the squares.

I had a similar trouble when first instaling Skyrim, but after new drivers installation and checking some options on the nvidia panel, everyting dissapeared soon. I tried the same , updating the drivers for SH5, and as it went worse (the squares appeared also on the sky) I downgraded the drivers to an old version, but nothing changed.

My guess is there´s something on the shaders of water and shadows that can be changed to adress this problem, but I don´t know which files are the ones for that and what to do with them.

Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

Ah, I see you've found your way here, Hagendasz. I leave you to the very knowledgeable people here at Subsim. I shall follow the posts as my interest has been peaked as to what the problem is that is causing your graphic glitch. If I come up with any inspirations I jump in and add my two cents, so to speak.
