This time I did everything step by step according to book, And I succesfully took the photo, but somehow I am having same problem again. Before success and fail I didnt change anything in my game settings, mod config or etc.

After I be sure about the photo problem again, I tried something within small hope for to solve this problem. When I was trying lower graphic settings suddenly I started getting the good order messages, It may be helpful for mod makers, I mean the relevance between graphic settings and good order message if any relevance is really exist, I just share my experience.

Interesting info on the graphics setting. Go download 5g from Vecko's signature link as it contains some fixes for detecting campaign state.

Default Please,help

On my SH5 game there is no way I can set the battle stations,no way to use periscope if not on battle stations...tried absolutely everything I could remember but I can't set the battle stations. I can open/close all doors and hatches,talk to the crew,well most of them...I can click as much as I want on some,but nothing happens. In the first mission,to sink the very first ship,that was the first and the only time I was able to set the battle stations ,and fire a torpedo...nothing after that. EDIT, Now I can destroy the ship,but,I can't see how much torpedoes I have. I know it's on ENTER key,but no matter how many times I press it,nothing happens...so any idea? Thank you.

Default Radioman reports not working properly

Hello,

I just came back to sh5 after a long break. I made a fresh install (latest patch) and am using the current version of twos, installed per instructions, with the enigma addon.
My problem is the radioman report shortcut (in the crew icons on the bottom of the screen) have stopped working all of a sudden after a couple in-game days. I can see the report contacts and status buttons, but they show '[no function]' underneath and nothing happens when clicked. I can still use the radioman directly from his station, however.
A fresh install didn't fix the problem.

Do you guys have any idea what might have gone wrong? As I said everything was working fine before.
Thanks for your help.

Nice to know I did not break my game. Well, time to break the fortress then!
Thank you for the prompt response.
Happy hunting!

Please clarify.
How about to reinstall DX form this MS link and see what will happen...https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down...n.aspx?id=8109

Run the game as an administrator and play a bit with windows compatibility options for SH5 executable...

I see that you full-quoted, but answered neither of them:

He is referring to SH5.exe compatibility tab (right click-properties)...
Of course you don't have Win10 compatibility options (since you're win 7 user) but you can experiment with other available options...

Again, cant assist you much with system relates issues which I can't reproduce...

I have a problem with SH5 Gold edition. More often than not, when I sink ships, it fails to give me credit for the tonnage sunk. I have to keep reloading the mission to get the thing to work right. Any thoughts on this?

If you are playing the stock game then not all ships that are sunk count towards your total.

TWOS uses a different system to tonnage sunk system so mostly avoids the issue, and I wrote an optional mod campaign advance verifier for TWOS to detect this problem .

having the same issue with twos installed. often ships are sinking/sunk but i don't get the "she's going down" or "xx freighter/tanker/warship sund for xxx tons"
no sunk marker on the map either.

additional issue: everytime when i'm on patrol and need to load my in-patrol save (because other bugs -mostly:tc not going to 1 while aircraft spotted and under attack or own fault.. like standing on the bridge and trying to crash dive without going into the sub in the first place) the currently selected patrol mission gets deselected and i don't get any mission progress even if i sink a small unguarded convoy of 3 big juicy freighter with 7000+ tons each. it's now my third new career, issue persists through all of them so far.
