[BUG] Tonnage bar won't fill up (what mod)

[Dragon81]

Hi guys,

this problem is spread about 2-3 topics and I want to sum it here.

The problem is that the tonnage bar of a mission won't fill up.
You selected the mission, you are IN the area, you sunk a ship, you waited nearby till it sunk, the sunk icon appears on the map but the bar won't fill up.

The reason of this problem can be that the time stamp of sinking the ship in the log book is 0000.00.00

The cause have to be a mod included in TheWolvesOfSteel (maybe OpenHorizon2 or TDW GenericPatcher ?? )

Please guys, help to find the cause of this problem.

OK I made a new isntall wit ha custom mod soup, basicly just a TWD New UI + IRAI+ OH2 and generic pacther. I was extra careful to not overwrite anything in OH 2.

I will find a ship in first campaign make a save, and try to kill it with different mods enabled.

I have a bad feeling that this bug is related to to UBI copy protection, old posts about this always ,mention the cracked exe. Maybe the generic patches broke something and the game think it was cracked ?

Carefull... for some mods you need to start a new campagne.
Then you can not use your savegame.

Hmm strange today I loaded up my save I left last night and the bar wa shalf full, I sink 2 dokced ships in Danzig Bay but no fill on the bar.
Maybe docked ships don't count ?

Edit2: looks like it works but some of the ships just didn't count, I killed all the docked ships in Danzig and got the bar full.

Install OH2.5 last, that what I did, didn't use WOS, but a custom mod soup most of the ting from wos and some from sobers.

There are two types of ships. The file type is different.
One type don't have shadow and no 3D damage and you can't see the ship below the water surface.

Maybe only one type of ship doesn't count to the tonnage bar.

OK I filled my bar, I got the 2 task completed, I went back and docked in Kiel..

Now I cant get a new mission... any tips ?

Ok...i had a same problem playing with WOS megamod online with launcher and notihing happens with progress bar. I almost throw my DVD in garbage.

But then I switched to offline mode and when asked where to save my game i choose local hard drive.

Then i loaded my save game i whooooohoo it started to fill. Now everithing counts. Near patrol area or far...neutral ships...dolphins )))) i was so happy about that... so there is no problem with mods...its something with offline/online.

So try to start carrear online save game switch to offline and enyoy

Thanks for the feed back grujo this is exactly what we need to build up a picture.


On line > Torpedoed a Rongel SOS but it did not add to the tonnage bar total.

Reloaded the save and noticed that the targets course was 7 degrees difference than last time.

I could not see it from the bridge using the binos but somehow it spotted me in medium fog and made a dash for it but I sank it with the deck gun this time and the tonnage bar filled.

And even for the record there is nothing wrong with TDW patcher because I have literally "BUTCHERD" that patch with my own disable/enable function for my needs even on patrol and tonnage bar is still rising. I didn't conntact BDU or anything similar.

I have installed optional mods and it's always working.... there must be some strange bug with UBI online sync server....I will also try with Sjizzle WFTD but i think I will got same result.

So I always start online in bunker...save...exit...back...upgrade...go to patrol....save...exit...go offline...reload... and then R'n'R meine freund.

It's friday night and it's time to visit BAR after long patrol..

Gute Jagd und fette Beute Kaleuns!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is brilliant, it looks like you are making headway on this Grujo and Peter, I haven't been testing both time and willingness to waste an hour just to not have the tonnage bar fill. When I get some time I will test out some sequencing on online and offline

[jibouil]

I'll try to test !
See you soon

don't work for me on the first mission
