Unless you have change the card It’s a Nvidia 7600GT graphics card (the 7600GS was not as good) you are pushing the envelope with 2Gb of ram this is the problem I would think.
I am running 4Gb and WAC runs ok now I pushed up the user memory settings to 3100
If your game runs but has a long Stutter/pause (More than 2secs) its maybe at this point it CTD’s then it is more ram needed

Wow even the intro is spectacular! I have been letting it run the full length on each startup to get me in the mood. the old films, the sequencing, the music ending with the Das Boot attack music is awsome. Would be worthy of an SH5 intro IMHO.. This or part sof it may have been out before, but I never saw it. I'm tottally blown away by the professionalism of it all. Congrats!

Ive been having a fe problems with the entire package tho that someone may be able to advise on.

Firstly the when you say click on the navigator bottom icon and go to Reports it doent give a soud report. Says some else like resum course, or an older report or just about anything. The hotspot for the variuous items just doesnt seem to activate properly. I tried adding the fixed lower section by Raphael but that doesnt cure it.

Another one is the radioman. If I click on the radio tower I dont go to the message screen at all.

THere are several others where the lower section click ons dont seem to work properly.

Any ideas?

My machine is top rate with 3.3ghz, 4gb ram, a 9800gt card etc. I did have to use the 4gb patch to make it run properly.

ANother small? question about ship damage. I nterceprted a convoy. Disabled a destroyer with a bow shot. Left it 1/2 sunk , but the guns are still blazing away and the sonar was still pinging.

Got a few other merchants in the convoy and avoided the rest of the escort. Had marked the position of the destroyer and went back 12 hours later. It was still there, 1/2 sunk bow down, front turrents mostly under water. It was still manned and active.

Backed off to about 5K yds and surface attacked with the 88 since I was out of torps. I must have hit that thing 40 times all over the pplace. THe grpahic showe it a wreck from bow to stern. It never sunk. Finally ran out of 88 ammo and attacked with the AA gun. It finally sank.

Just seems wrong somehow. Ive enountered some other merch ships that sank to the waterline and never sink. The sinking mechanics seem quite unlike GWX 3 which seem very natural and correct.

Any help on this one?

Hi Hansolo!

Your work is great! but ... Why so slow loading WAC 4.1?
Is it a problem of fragmentation of the hard drive?

Regards.

No offence to your mod dude but you should test 100 times before releasing it. Right now , for me it's crap.I done everything but i keep getting "Failed to initialize 3d engine" all the solutions found on the *net are not making it work so i guess it's the mod fault.

It seems that are a lor of users that are having problems with it. I didnt remember that to happen on GWX. So test it before releasing on different systems not only 3 testers you handpicked. Otherwise you work will stay like 2-3 minutes on my hdd.

WAC4.1 needs a lot higher spec of machine to run it then GWX.
Someone might be able to help you out if you post the specs of your machine.
Or at least give you a probable reason why you cant run this mod.

This is really not my business, since I didn't do the mod. I just host it. But...

No offence to your intelligence, but HanSolo78 has done this in his spare time and offers this mod free of charge to everyone, and if it does not work for you, it just doesn't give you the right to critize how he got it tested or how it's constructed.
If you don't want it because it doesn't work on your machine, well, tough luck.

Listen to SeaWolf: if it doesn't work for you, then post your pc specs and make a detailed report of what does not work for you, when and where. That's constructive critizism. What you posted, is not.

Have a nice day

Clocky, you are wrong and you chose the wrong wording. If it does not work for you, ask for advice here and I'm sure you will receive it. People here are the helpful kind and HanSolo went to great lengths to make his mod as friendly as he could. If it does not work for you, well, that's it. For example, I never could run the previous version of WAC, but never reproached Han about it.
Just read all the posts of people who can play this mod. It's great, it works for a lot of people and it's FREE!!! It's the result of countless hours of development spent by Han and his team just to improve the original game, and nobody charged one single cent for all this effort.
So, bottom line, if you don't appreciate this mod, at least be POLITE!

Action taken, no need to discuss any more the matter. I'm sure that clocky will understand your arguments, guys.

Thanks
