Serge has also added new Russian aeroplanes and airbases - this needs an update to the airlayer for them to enter the campaign (on my to do list)



Ah yes - less debris would have been better - can you post a link Gap
One step closer to some great air raids on harbours - just needs fighter protection and balloons

Has anyone else managed to test these attacks in French harbours?
Its a big breakthough as this ctd has restricted the airlayer for years in this game.

Anyone with some spare time - please try the BlackPit campaign with OHII v2.3 and patch1

NO-CTD A-OK!

I'm on to it, leaving port as we speak.
Like the man said - I'll be back!

Here is a preview of my work:



I need still to add more details to the diffuse map (including the baking and overlaying of the AO map), and I must create a second version of the rocket, with AP warhead (the one currently portrayed is the SAP/HE one). The above touches shouldn't take too long

A couple + 1 questions:

- what is the difference between the first and second mod list, apart from using patch 1 with the latter?

- does removing the rocket files from OH 2.3 and OH 2.3 patch 1 (in the second mod list) solve the ctd problem?

- have you tried enabling my "air guns & rocket patch 0.1" on top of OHII 2.3 + patch 1 beta? As I wrote in my previous post, my patch is not fully compatible with the patch by Trevally & Serge. Enabling it on top of the latter would result in loss of some features but I shouldn't cause fatal errors. On the contrary, it should introduce a series of little fixes which, with a dose of luck, should solve te ctd issue

the difference is only patch 1

I don't know. I will try

no I haven't.

Hi Serge

SkyBarons Leigh Light for SH5 1.1 also causes CTD (see the forum), i also had CTD. I reduced the size of the model and rewrote sim and zon files - no CTD.

If I got you right, you've reworked/reduced AI Sub Crew and SkyBarons Leigh Light files, didn't you? If so and I'm right here, could you upload these files to me? I'm trying now to deal with constant CTDs in my mod-pack and these mods (I called such mods - 'heavy' mods) created problems in my list a long time ago..

Thank you

Unfortunately not...CTD every time...

I'll make one more try with striped modlist(essential mods only, I didn't had any CTD with shorter list)...If i fail to pinpoint which file incompatibility causes crashes I think I'm going to quit or en least to waith for Rongel's megamod with OHII2.3 in it. Maybe I'll have more luck then...

Try this

don't use the patch

I came to the same conclusion about AI Sub Crew with my silentotto CTDs using my modlist posted at FX Update thread.

I overlooked posting this in the FX thread. AI Sub Crew was between IRAI and R.E.M by Xrundel TheBeast 1.2. I had to remove silentmichal's 1.2.4 interior mod which was immediately after R.E.M by Xrundel TheBeast 1.2 for silentotto CTDs to finally stop.

Since SkyBarons Leigh Light files overwrites the sh.sdl file that other mods use, I decided to remove that mod (with a little assistance from [inf] sober's megamod!!) during my CTD investigation.

Later tonight I want to see what is really triggering a CTD, silentmichal's 1.2.4 interior mod or R.E.M by Xrundel TheBeast 1.2?

After that, I will do further testing for Trevally's French ports and air attacks.

All ya have to do is read a few pages back and see where people are having problems with CTDs and the introduction of OH II v2.3.

It does not mean that OHII v2.3 is wrong. CTDs can happen with very large modlists or changing the order of mods so they all can get along and work well with each other.

Being discussed a little on the [inf] sober's mega mod and FX Update threads, too. So, you can see how complicated things can get, no easy solution!!!

[Trevally.]

Thanks for the feedback guys

So far we have some users who ctd with blackpit - this looks like a mod compatibility issue.

What I am looking for is some info with anyone who uses OHII v2.3 +patch1 beta and then leaves Brest harbour (blackpit)- dock straight away and then leave again.
This time you will get an air raid from the RAF - issues at this stage is what I need to know about.
For me - This has been a long issue and in all versions of OHII I have had to keep planes away from ports due to the guaranteed ctd.
Now with serges patch - I no longer have ctds with air attacks in port.
Can ayone else confirm this

[Mikemike47]

Been looking at this conversation the last few days. It has been going back and forth on ideas and situations. I want to make sure that I do not misinterpret your request as it stands now.

Still want more feedback on this with mods listed above?
Elaborate on what issues at this stage? Friendly and especially enemy aircraft fire? Quantities of enemy aircraft? Does coastal defenses shoot enemy aircraft down? Is this the topic gap has been talking about recently and works now, or for future integration? Can the sub I am using, shoot down enemy aircraft without CTDs? Exploding enemy aircraft OK? No lag?

Run same test with modlist above and only this one:
OPEN HORIZONS II v2.3 - rocket & air guns patch v 0.1 by serge65 modified by gap?

BUT Definately NOT either one of these mods, AAguns&Rockets.rar or Reworked aircrafts.rar that serge65 did but sober has commented on.??????

Yes please

Elaborate on what issues at this stage? Friendly and especially enemy aircraft fire? Quantities of enemy aircraft? Does coastal defenses shoot enemy aircraft down?

From the very beginning of OHII - planes near ports could cause issues
Some were ok (air patrol over Kiel etc) others cause ctd (German fighter over Kiel)

Of real concern was allied (RAF) raids on ports in France where your bunker is.
These 100% caused ctd.
To fix this I stopped all RAF raids over France.
The CTD would happen when about 10 planes were on the screen at the same time. German ships would be shot at and some sunk. Ship would return fire and shoot down many planes. But always more would come - then after a few more minutes of shooting = CTD every time

OHII v2.3 - this will not happen as the planes (RAF) will not fly over France.

OHII v2.3 patch1 beta - has a patch by Serge that changes the RAF bases to allow then to fly over France again. This was a concern to me so I tested.
Sure enough - the RAF started attacking French ports that are your Uboat base - but this time = No CTD
I have tested a few time and each time I can sail on past the battle and head to deep sea without CTD.

So before I go ahead and undo all the precautions I have in place to stop RAF attacking ports - I want to be sure. (It is easier to add something than take it away at times)

Is this the topic gap has been talking about recently and works now, or for future integration? Can the sub I am using, shoot down enemy aircraft without CTDs? Exploding enemy aircraft OK? No lag

I do not know of other issues - most at mod conflict related

Run same test with modlist above and only this one:
OPEN HORIZONS II v2.3 - rocket & air guns patch v 0.1 by serge65 modified by gap?

Again - I do not know about this or what Gap is patching

BUT Definately NOT either one of these mods, AAguns&Rockets.rar or Reworked aircrafts.rar that serge65 did but sober has commented on.??????

I do not know.

Just OHII v2.3 with patch1 beta in a port air attack

Again guys - thanks for your help and feedback
