[REL] Open Horizons II (old thread)

[Trevally.]

Hello just wanted to appreciate your excellent work, but I have the following issue

just finished my 3rd patrol. As I sunk over 70.000t on that patrol accomplished the british costal mission, Scapa mission accomblished on 2nd patrol.

When I end the partol and dok in Wilhemshaven I get the message that I get the command over a new U-Boat. If I accept I get to the dock but then can't start a new patrol anymore as I get always a CTD while new patrol is loading.

If I neglect the command and stay with the Type VIIA then everything is fine and I can load a new patrol

remove my UIs mod and see if you can accept the new boat without CTD. Might be CTD because of snorkel :hmmm:

Hello TDW if I disable your NewUI and all related mods and then re-enable only OH II I can't get beyond the menu even loading to the dock (still with VIIA) gives me a CTD.
Will reset everything and see with dbgview

Update
Issue fixed, must have been a corropted installation on my side
I tested with
OHII base + patch -> no CTD with new VIIB on new patrol loading
OHII base + enviro + patch -> no CTD with new VIIB on new patrol loading
OHII base + new ships + patch -> no CTD with new VIIB on new patrol loading
in the end just to verify that it might really be related to OHII full I loaded my initial loadout again and voila
Can accept new VIIB submarine and start new patrol without CTD

Keep up your good work

Patch2 for OHII v1.4

Replace patch1 with patch2 when in the bunker - no restart required

Patch2 is for all configurations and includes the fixes from patch1.
Added to patch2 is Rongels great work at fixing the ships.
Thanks again Rongel:yeah:

[kylania]

Does that also fix all the frozen flags or just the one listed?

Also, in Happy Times there are some massively dumb coastal and fishing boats. There were three when I returned to Wilhelmshaven after the last patrol and in my current one I've killed 5 so far on the way to England. You'd think they'd stay away from German ports! :)

[Trevally.]

Yes:yep:
For me it worked great for ages. Then it stopped working for a day and now it is working again and I have no frozen flags now for the last 5 convoys I have found.

:hmmm: yes that is odd.

I have seen some strange node issues at times in ME.
During testing - we would email for example, fishing layers to eachother.
These layer would sometime be corrupt when installed.
Nodes could jump to places they should not be. (a node in the Bristol channel could jump to the port of Brest)

Can you open campaign HappyTimes in ME and have a look at the nodes in the fishing layer:06:

[kylania]

Looks the same as you posted above.

[pelucho25]

Hi, a simple question. Is it necessary to meet the objectives to advance the campaign? or is it kind silent hunter III? thanks

[Trevally.]

Hi, a simple question. Is it necessary to meet the objectives to advance the campaign? or is it kind silent hunter III? thanks

No it is not necessary to finish objectives to advance.

There are some blocks in place if you do not get a major victory.
You need all stars filled in your campaign achievement bar to get a major victory.

When you fail to achieve this - the tree to advanve to the next campaign could be blocked.

Here you can see red condition lines.

These lines show where the tree advance will block if objectives are failed.

That sounds like TDW's NewUi option where you can catch submarine sighted reports from other ships. But I think it should be set to false by default. If I remember right you can turn it off ingame from the radio options-button (small arrow in radio report panel).

[con20or]

think i got all my problems ironed out - except one. Im still getting hydrophone contacts on the map on the surface...

How to switch it off?

[Halface]

well if you use the bow mounted sonar thingy you will get hydro contacts .....but the rotating antena trhing thats on top you will not.....

just a thought

[con20or]

so its working correctly, and I should be getting sonar contacts with the default sonar gear? Once i update its gone?

Update: Just had my first run in with a dolphin pod - chased them all over thinking they were ships. Wasnt until i dived that I heard their noises. I thought the were nets at first, or mines, but eventually found them

Every time I get close to a dolphin they send a 'submarine'sighted' report. It shows up as red in the radio messages list - so IM assuming its me. Its certainly my coordinates. I like the submarine sighted reports - but I should be able to see the ships before they reoprt me!!

:D dam dolphins

Re: sub spotted
yes Rongel is correct and you can stop this by clicking the small options icon in the message window and untick sub sighted.

This is TDWs mod where it scans a distance around your boat and when a unit (including dolphins) get within that area - there is a random chance that a message "sub spotted / scope spotted" is sent.

You can edit the radius where this may happen or stop it. (options.py)

[con20or]

do enemy ships/planes come in answer to the message?

In that case I wouldnt like to turn it off. Its defaults to 8000, wonder what a compromise is. I should at least be able to see them first...

Sorry Con2oor - I dont know.
You should ask in TDWs Ui thread:up:

[kylania]

haha, I love that dolphins are sending radio messages of seeing you! :)

I don't think those radio messages you get actually alert anyone, since I've been getting them before I'm visible at all and no response was made by the units sending the messages. Like I'll get the red "you've been spotted" message but they won't change course at all.

[con20or]

yeh - had noticed that before - radio message says im spotted but ships steam into my path, not zigzagging....ill turn them off id thats the case.

Damn you flipper!

You shouldn't have to turn it off.
I'm not 100% sure but the following but it's a thought.



1. The following option sets if 'Sub Sighted' reports are on or off.

#[OPTION]
#CATEGORY=Radio
#TYPE=0
#DESCRIPTION=Show sub sighted radio messages
#VALUES=
#DEFAULT=False
#; do we show radio messages from sub sightings?
#; change below to either True or False
InformSubSightedMessages = True = OK, -> 'Sub Sighted' reports are shown.

2. You can decrease/increase this option to whatever distance you want.
As long as it's longer than the option in point 3. -> your deck watch should be able to spot the enemy (well enough to update it's course (in kms)?) before the enemy can spot you and send a report.
You could try to increase this to e.g. 10 and check if that does the trick.

#[OPTION]
#CATEGORY=Radio
#TYPE=3
#DESCRIPTION=The distance (in kms) from sub the watchstanders see the radio contact report contact well enough to update it's course
#VALUES=MIN|0
#DEFAULT=8
#; for radio contact reports, at what range from the sub can the watchstanders see the contact well enough to update it's course (in kms)?
#; below is in kilometers
RangeStartUpdatingContacts = 8

3. Or you could try to decrease this to e.g. 5 and check if this does the trick.

#[OPTION]
#CATEGORY=Radio
#TYPE=3
#DESCRIPTION=The range at which the possibility exists that a contact could spot the player's sub and send out a radio report
#VALUES=MIN|0
#DEFAULT=8000
#; when stalking or approaching a ship this is the range at which the possibility exists that the ship could spot the sub and send a radio report about it
#; below is in meters
RangeShipSendingSubSightedMessage = 6000

:arrgh!:Great mod love the mines. In first mission just chugging along and just missed a mine with out even knowing it was there.

Still getting frozen flags:

All my flags are working again.

With Uekels flag fix5 (in OHII patch2) i have gone for hours without any issues - all flags working.
Then I got one frozen flag and every flag there after was also frozen.
Next day - flags working again and have been working ever since.:hmmm:

Hello,

I've recently returned to (attempting to) play SH5. I installed the OH base mod, but when I go into the mission select screen, the FPS drops right off, so much in fact, I can't even choose a mission. It is a problem with OH, because when I took it off my mod list, everything was fine. Any suggestions as to why this is happening? Has anyone experienced this and known how to solve it? I could play without OH, but I wanted to give it a try. Thanks in advance.

[KBourne]

well i think i need to download this one tomorrow, for some reason i cant at this point im only allowed to download 3 files per day.

anyway, i try it tomorrow then :)

Aye Mates!

Just started playing again and I am currently using OH II.
Started New Career this morning.

Currently, CSP MaGUI v2.0 Beta has flags defined as in Image below:
(data\Menu\Gui\Charts\Flaggen.tga)
This is a Pop-Down list on mouse over that is viewed from within the Perascope/Uzo Views in CSP MaGUI to help determine Friend/Foe.

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/2913/cspmaguiflaggen.gif (http://imageshack.us/f/268/cspmaguiflaggen.gif)
Are these flags correct for use in OH II?
Are any flags missing and if so, what flags are missing?
Are the Dates entered War Correct for use in OH II?

Also OH II Mine Field Map Pull Down. IO_StrategicMap_4_2_Beta_for_CSPMagui Has Pull down MAP in upper left corner of Nav Chart View that currently displays shipping lanes and convoy air cover ranges.(data\Menu\Gui\IO_ShippingChart\IO_Shipping _Chart.dds)
Would really be nice if the Mine Field Map was there because most of us pretty much know where the dhipping lanes are located.
My seat cussion is getting a pucker factor crease on it from when I get close to where I think the Mine are located. That map would help my hemroids and most likely many others as well.:haha:

Trevally, would you mind posting your PC's specs (CPU, video card, RAM...)? I keep having problems with CTDs, so I was wondering what kind of a rig you've got if the game seems to run smoothly for you with all the new ships imported.

SH5 tips to stop bugs during play


Do not save/load when ships are in view or when underwater
Do not alt tab out of game when under water (CO2 bug)
Do not alt tab out when escorts are in view (ship follows you)
No TC higher than 64 when close to land or ships
Do not let a damaged ship get more than 30km away or it will 100% fixed when you next see it. (this includes save/load)
Do not use TC more than your PC can handle (my max is x 1024)

Thank you very much!:salute:

One more question: I see you're not using Magnum Opus, is there a reason for that?

[kylania]

Too many English voices in the MO mod and I couldn't be bothered to try to root them all out.

[Sartoris]

Trevally, is the Trevally scopes 8X5 mod available somewhere? I can't find it by googling.

Also is the "Cerberus62 Additional Merchant Ships OHII" mod this one? -> http://174.123.69.202/~subsimc/radioroom/showthread.php?t=174342

Both these have just been renamed by me so that I know it has been set to the way I like them.

The scope mods in the MODS folder in TDWs UI or MO has some good choices:up:

The cerberus mod - yes thats it, just has the fixed roster merged into it.

stoianm key commands - this is just a few changes from stormyflys commands

SH5 sounds Stormy OH FX - this is stormfly's sound mod with merged .sdl
:up:

[Sartoris]

Thank you for your reply!:)

I hope it will be okay if I just activate Cerberus' mod and after that activate your OHII mod. There are two parts of the Cerberus mod, and the second one seems to have a conflict with NewUI_TDC, so I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

Aye Mates!

Just started playing again and I am currently using OH II.
Started New Career this morning.

Currently, CSP MaGUI v2.0 Beta has flags defined as in Image below:
(data\Menu\Gui\Charts\Flaggen.tga)
This is a Pop-Down list on mouse over that is viewed from within the Perascope/Uzo Views in CSP MaGUI to help determine Friend/Foe.

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/2913/cspmaguiflaggen.gif (http://imageshack.us/f/268/cspmaguiflaggen.gif)
Are these flags correct for use in OH II?
Are any flags missing and if so, what flags are missing?

Are the Dates entered War Correct for use in OH II?

You can see all dates for Allied, Neutral and Axis here
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Roster\Defside.CFG


Also OH II Mine Field Map Pull Down. IO_StrategicMap_4_2_Beta_for_CSPMagui Has Pull down MAP in upper left corner of Nav Chart View that currently displays shipping lanes and convoy air cover ranges.(data\Menu\Gui\IO_ShippingChart\IO_Shipping _Chart.dds)
Would really be nice if the Mine Field Map was there because most of us pretty much know where the dhipping lanes are located.
My seat cussion is getting a pucker factor crease on it from when I get close to where I think the Mine are located. That map would help my hemroids and most likely many others as well.:haha:

When I begin campaign Mare Nostrum, I am in the port of registry Lorient. But all this campaign operates in Mediterranean sea, and I need to swim each time from Lorient to Mediterranean sea. Same it is not correct!

Is there a English version of this mod? It changes all the text to German, It not is there a way to keep the mod but change the text back to English? :06:

Hi Vit:salute:

Yes - when you start Mare Nostrum you are in the port Lorient.
So you will have to pass Gibraltar to get to your patrol area:arrgh!:

Your base will change on 31/03/41 so you can stay in the Med :yep:

Don´t understand the sense behind the question??? :06:

The default language of the OHII-MOD is english. And "Ruby2000" from our german-ubi-Forum translate all important things into german language for german native speaker like me for example.

The "Deutsch(german)-MOD" is only an UI 6.8.0/OHII-Add-On for german Player (or Player that would like to have the german language in game).

So if you don´t like to have the german language with OHII, simple don´t use (activate) the MOD!

Best regards,
Magic

If you do not want to wait, you can do it your self.

You can take your stock SH5 data\Menu\Menu.txt file and compare ID numbers.
Any ID numbers in German that does not exist in stock menu text can be added.
Then use Google Translate to change from German to English.

If you take your time, the entire process takes about a hour at most.

hi everybody: just a little problem: in OH II v1.4 mission on western coasts i went to scapa, sank the carrier, but i'm unable to find where to sink the 50000 tons of merchant. i went sinking on NW, SW, W of ireland, between ireland and england but it never gives a progress on the objective (sunk at least 200000 tons of merchant).
any hint?
thanks a lot,

Small bit of info...

There is still one ghost ship on the loose without no textures. I thought I fixed it in the previous patch, but no... So don't be alarmed if you see a black ship, fix is on the way.

I just encountered a British NPL_Hap that had no texture.
I checked the data\Roster\British\Sea\NPL_Hap.cfg and it is correct
TextureName=data/Sea/NPL_Hap/NPL_Hap_T01.dds
I checked the the texture data\Sea\NPL_Hap\NPL_Hap_T01.dds texture and it was there.

My guess is that the error must be in the Material specified in DAT file.

Hi Beast!

This ship has been giving me grey hairs...

It's difficult when there is so many people involved and different kinds of techniques used and bla bla blaa. Anyway, I think I got it fixed, this is again random bug so it makes things a bit complicated. I have to double check the materials too! Needs a lot of testing :wah:

[TheBeast]

I did find 1 possible issue in the NPL_Hap.dat file.
The ships 3D Model has 3 MAP Channels but there are only 2 Materials specified in the Parent Node.
That leaves 1 MAP Channel without a specified texture. Since this is the last texture applied, it can result in Black Un-Textured ship.

You may be able to fix it by adding another cfg#TXR_NPL_Hap Material Node and adding that new Material to the 3D Model Parent Node Materials List.

I updated my NPL_Hap.dat and will check the Museum and let you know if that fixes it.

-=[Update]=-
After adding new Material node for cfg#TXR_NPL_Hap and adding new Material to the 3D Model Parent Node Materials list in 3 places the ship renders correctly in Museum.
Now I need to encounter one at sea again.

I think that all the imported ships have 3 materials specified, the third is for the damage layer I believe. I got good results by giving the T01 texture mip maps, for some reason this ship is missing them in latest OH II patch ( I didn't click the generate mipmaps in Photoshop when I saved it).

One good way to test this behaviour is to make a single mission where the ship spawns lets say 100 km from you, that way the game handles it like in campaign when you meet it. No textures missing yet.

Yep, more testing to do.

Isn't there a DMG 3D Model specifically for the Damage Layer?

In SHIII/IV when, for example, the Conning 3D Model had a MAP Channel defined for Tower Emblems. If no material was specefied for that channel a black square would render on the side of the Tower where the Emblem was suppose to be.

Just a thought...

Anyway, this is wrong forum thread for this discussion.

-=[UPDATE]=-
My solution did not work. The ship is still rendering black in Campaign. Almost as if 3D Damage Model is overwriting Texture.
Going to try adding transparent image to DMG 3D Model MAP Channel 1, 2 and move damage texture to MAP Channel 3.

-=[UPDATE 2]=-
That fixed it. Added transparent texture for material and adding to 3D DMG Model Parent node Materials list MAP Channel 1 and 2 and boat renders correctly in campaign now.
Just create transparent 10x10 texture "data\Textures\TNormal\tex\blank.tga"
Download here http://www.mediafire.com/?w86iapklybbsw (http://www.mediafire.com/?w86iapklybbsw)

I use different method myself with the fix (just a new texture-file with mip-maps on) but as the problem is random it's hard to say if it works or not. I even had troubles of re-producing the bug without any fix, all textures were working.

Anyway, I suggest that you post a open fix so that people can try it out and report what they find. I'm basicly out of the modding business for a few days, so can't go ahead with my fix.

Good evening everybody!

I'm going to try this mod on my game and I will tell you what I think of it.

Alban

[kylania]

So it was gonna take almost two hours to cross the Atlantic to reach the refuel milkcow, U-459. I went an hour and a half before getting impatient, pushing my motor officer and setting flank speed.

So I get to the spot where I'm supposed to refuel and it MOVES! Now the location is 2.2km west of me along the coast. No problem, I check with the navigator and I have enough fuel to flank it over to there. So off I go!


Figured this one out when I replayed this campaign. When you get to the first location and it "moves" at the same time you get a generic Radio Message. It's not highlighted in RED as most "for you" messages are so I missed it the first time.

This time I read it and it tells you to use 'Request Resupply' to find U-459. Instead of sending me 2000km away, it sent me to a ship 100km away this time.

Hi, for some reason after I installed this mod my torpedoes don't hit anymore they shoot well behind the target. I don't use manual targeting just the default auto target mode. Do I need to use manual targeting now? I could usually pick the spot where I wanted the torpedo to hit.

Not sure why this would happen. OHII changes nothing related to the torps:hmmm:

The ships travel faster with OHII, making them harder to hit.
Could it be that you are not opening your torp doors before you fire:06:
With slower targets - this may not have had much of an effect, but with faster ships:hmmm:

If you try a historical mission - does it work then?

Not sure why this would happen. OHII changes nothing related to the torps:hmmm:

The ships travel faster with OHII, making them harder to hit.
Could it be that you are not opening your torp doors before you fire:06:
With slower targets - this may not have had much of an effect, but with faster ships:hmmm:

If you try a historical mission - does it work then?

Hi, I think that may be it, the ships travel faster. I do open my tubes and select a fast run, but still miss sometimes. Should I start leading them now instead of shooting for the middle? and should ships be going this fast? I don't think they spot me because I submerge well before they would.:06:

[Trevally.]

and should ships be going this fast? I don't think they spot me because I submerge well before they would.:06:

I do not know guys.

If convoy speeds were up to me - I would go as fast as the slowest ship could go.

Im sure someone who does know may answer.



Hi, I think that may be it, the ships travel faster. I do open my tubes and select a fast run, but still miss sometimes. Should I start leading them now instead of shooting for the middle?


you should test your auto target in historical missions first to ensure it is not something else - but yes - I guess giving some lead will help.

Is Magnum Opus required before installing this MOD?

[TheBeast]

Is Magnum Opus required before installing this MOD?

No, You can use your own MOD configuration.

From what I can tell, OH II v1.4 does not depend on Mafnum Opus...

[Zs4zet]

Wrong my post.
I got answer from Trevally...

[Trevally.]

No ships were harmed in the making of this mod:O:

Your camera file within your scope mod is wrong for the graticules:up:

[Rongel]

@ Trevally

I read somewhere that you plan to update the mod, so please let me know when you are going to do so, I could add some of my ship fixes to the new patch/version.

No rush! Work is keeping me occupied again... Anyway, it's a good time to report any imported ship troubles.

Also it would be great to add the radio messages to the mod, it would simplify the mod soup a bit. I can't see any reason why somebody wouldn't like the new campaign messages :DL

Yes so far v1.5 will have the fixes from patch2 and:-

Changed scapa mission start date and fixed BB game entry date
Added map marker to HappyTimes SS mission
Fixed errors in base where TDWs validator would show errors for PTElco and Mine_Chain
Fixed Rommel supplies and OP in campiagn Battle of Med

Still looking for any campaign issues for the later campains as more player will be getting that far by now:yep:

I will also wait for your ship fixes:up:

Hi all,

I'm very interested in installing OHII in full version, but I have a doubt that could be generate a some conflicts with others enviromental MODs (or something else) that I installed.
Here below my MOD Soup, could you gently suggest if it's gonna be ok or if it' s better installing OH II base + new ships??
thanks a lot in advance

Yes - intercept, spy, recon, commando and supply were all added and set so you will get them more often.

When going for an objective ie "air gap" - the new missions will mostly be within 3 returns to bunker.

I acomplishedd first two missions - Eastern British Coastal waters and Scapa Flow ( breaking the fortress ).

As I accept new (3rd) mision I am again assigned to Eastern British Coastal waters... again ???

Only one "cross" at Eastern UK coastal waters - displaying full bar: that means mision acomplished...?

Hey Trevally, is it some bug... or should I return (in my 3rd mission) to the same task as in the first one (Eastern British Coastal waters) ? ...that seems to be already accomplihed (full bar) ?!?

Hi Adriatico:salute:

Sounds like the next missions are not ready yet. They will be at the correct date - so you can either wait (dock/patrol dock/patrol) until the correct date or go sinking ships anywhere you want.

Or

Can you see the missions in the breifing map and cant select from there:06:
Can you post a pic for me?

Thanks:up:

Try this one; OHII v1.4 patch2 (http://www.gamefront.com/files/20901325/OHII+v1.4+patch2.7z) maybe this could do the trick?
At least I haven't seen what you're describing :hmmm:

[Trevally.]

I am thinking about adding an extra option with v1.5

A lot of players are finishing the objectives far sooner than we thought they would. This is resulting in a lot of time spent with no objectives untill the date for the next one.

So perhaps I should add an "higher tonnage" option for those who are not using real nav and thus finding and sinking the requirements too easily.

It would be installed after v1.5

Here is a nor sized UK airbase:-
[AirGroup 1]
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19410601
Squadron1Class=FHurricaneMkI
Squadron1No=18
Squadron2Class=TBBeaufort
Squadron2No=12
Squadron3Class=FBBeaufighter
Squadron3No=12
Squadron4Class=LBSAnson
Squadron4No=6
Squadron5Class=SSunderland
Squadron5No=2

[AirGroup 2]
StartDate=19410602
EndDate=19430601
Squadron1Class=FHurricaneMkI
Squadron1No=18
Squadron2Class=TBBeaufort
Squadron2No=12
Squadron3Class=FBMosquitoMkVI
Squadron3No=12
Squadron4Class=LBSUSMedWar
Squadron4No=6
Squadron5Class=SSunderland
Squadron5No=4

[AirGroup 3]
StartDate=19430602
EndDate=19451231
Squadron1Class=FHurricaneMkI
Squadron1No=18
Squadron2Class=TBBeaufort
Squadron2No=12
Squadron3Class=FBBeaufighter
Squadron3No=12
Squadron4Class=LBSUSLateWar
Squadron4No=6
Squadron5Class=SSunderland
Squadron5No=6


As you can see there are new air groups by date and the planes they have.
There are also small and large bases with other load outs.

If you can tell me when and what size of base would be required - I could see about adding them.

Here is where you can see the roster for UK planes:-

Its all good i was jsut checking if the light version had al lthe same missions asthe full version if it just shows up a week later its all good

There is a setting somewhere that can prevent models such as Icebergs from displaying in Museum.

Hi Trevally!

Forgive my question, but any news about v1.5 from OHII? :hmmm:

Best regards,
Magic:salute:

Hi Magic,

I have it ready but am still looking at these spawn nodes (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=1787231&postcount=394). I am thinking about removing them from scapa (it this may help with the ctd (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=1786613&postcount=218)that is an issue in scapa) and adding some date direct spawn units instead. This would only be for campaign TG.
Hoping for some feed back from anyone who knows about these.

Also Rongel is just finishing up his patch for the dat ships and I should get these soon:yep:

Perhaps tomorrow night:up:

Here is the fix list so far:-
OHII v1.5
Fixed errors in mission CFG (click click)
Added Uekel fix to frozen flags
Changed scapa mission start date and fixed BB game entry date
Added map marker to HappyTimes SS mission
Fixed errors in base where TDWs validator would show errors for PTElco and Mine_Chain
Added Rongel fix - graphical update that fixes graphical bugs, All ships now use 1024 x 1024 textures, black textured ghost ship, a crash in museum with one Z-ship and few other small tweaks.
Fixed Rommel supplies and OP in campiagn Battle of Med
Added cerberus ship mod - Thanks cerberus
Added the OHII campaign radio messages
Fixed Arctic convoy campaign victory conditions
Fixed Op Drumbeat Blitz mission
Fixed The Final Year objectives
Fixed airbase layer in the Med campaigns
Fixed campaign Battle of Med where there was a chance that convoys/traffic would get stuck and backlog - resulting in new ships spawning but none leaving (causes ctd after time (100+ ships))

[Silent Steel]

I have it ready... removing them from scapa (may help with the ctd (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=1786613&postcount=218)in scapa)
Perhaps tomorrow night:up:

Looks great, can't wait :up:

update

I now have the next set for ship fixes from Rongel - thanks, they look great:up:

I have also been testing scapa flow in the first campaign with the spawn nodes removed.
I have replaced them with direct spawn ships - so when sunk, they will stay sunk.
During test - 8 ships sunk (1 with deck gun:D), used uzo, scopes, fast TC every thing that happened in the lets play and no ctds.:hmmm: Even had a taskforce spawn and leave and many cargo (supply) ships.

Anyway - it looks a lot better now so I will leave this in for the release tomorrow night:sunny:

But so far, things are looking great, no ctd, fps constant 60 (as always, but I have a high-end pc).
I did see 2 ships with frozen flags (Swedisch merchants), though...not sure if that has anything to do with your mod.

[SgtPotato]

Travelly, did you add something like graphic-wise to this mod? I'm getting the fps lag when I'm in the bunker and out of the bunker.

[Forensicman101]

Does this mod include reduced tonnage requirements in the campaign? The original tonnage targets were daftly unrealistic. Is this mod compatibile with the Reduced Tonnage mod?

screens are very realistic ! I enjoy to put this mod on my SH5 !

[Sartoris]

I think the tonnage requirement missions should be completely removed. Just a patrol order or some other mission types (spy insertion etc.) should be left in, to make it more realistic.

I'd also like to know how you're supposed to hunt in a wolfpack. I have no map contacts so I don't know when there is a wolfpack nearby. Shouldn't there be some kind of a message that tells me to be somewhere at a certain time in order to link up with a pack?

[Trevally.]

Yes that would be good - but hard to do
It would require the removal of the star/cross achived syatem and be replaced by date only.

I will have a think if this could be done

try looking in my profile - I have made a thread with pics how this is done.
With no map contacts - do you not still get radio contacts:06:

I am testing a new layer where when you enter a map zone a trigger is created.
This will cause a few events to occur.
Radio message
Spawn wolfpack
Spawn convoy
Spawn convoy shadow (u-boat following the convoy)

Progress is slow:nope:

the antilag fix doesn't seem much help. However, here's my mod list:

http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m136/Solo_Wing_Pixy/Errors/sgtpotatomodlist.png

[Silent Steel]

the antilag fix doesn't seem much help. However, here's my mod list:



Hi Sgt,

1. Make sure you have patched the SH5 to 1.2. You see the version in the upper right corner of the Main Menu in the game. It should say 1.2.0
If not run the C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe

2. Make sure you have put the Antilag d3d in; C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5

3. Set the antilag.cfg to RenderAheadLimit=3/FPSlimit=36 and let's see what effect it has on your FPS.

4. Replace the ' Open Horizons Full v1.5' with ' OPEN HORIZONS II_base v1.5'. The 'Full' version can be very demanding and is heavy on your CPU and RAM.

I've made a few changes to the load order - added recommended other mods or taken some of them away just because the features are included in other mods eg. the OPCF (Filters can be set ingame in NewUIs TDC).

R.E.M. <=====Pardon me. Could you be so kind and tell me what is this?

Hi again,

This is the 'Repaired Equipment Mod'
Here's an excerpt from the mod's 'Readme.txt' file;

' R.E.M_Xrundel_TheBeast"- is modification that will take care of antennas,
periscopes, sonar and radar stations on your U-Boat that previously was not function properly. This MOD was created with idea of taking the game to the new, more realistic and enjoyable level.'

:up:

[Trevally.]

p.s. Sorry but didn't catch the idea of 'Elite Skipers' optional mod. It only increases the mission tonnage-goals as it was in vanilla?


Yes - it increases the requirements for many of the campaign objectives.

This is aimed for users who do not use real nav, map contacts on etc. Resulting in finding and sinking more ships and therefore finishing the missions to early. This would then give the player a looonngg gap before the next objective appeared.

The increase in tonnage or ships sunk is not high - it is similar to the light campaign mod that was released about a year ago

[vlad29]

After switching from the full version to the base, I have to start a new campigan again?

[Rocko]

Hi All,

First of all, I want to thank the OH II development team for their effort and constant support.:yeah:

I switched to OHII and after installing and testing OH II v1.5 parts 1 and 3(Total Germany campaign) I'm getting the following challenges, please advise.

1) Low FPS and frequent crashes (in both Full version and Parts 1&3):

The dps has dropped significantly especially around harbors. Also, getting very frequent crashes at low TC's (even 32) either at end of Kiel Canal, in the middle of the North Sea or at the East British coast (far away from the mines). I have to save and load many times to keep going.

1a) Do you recommend adding the patch for removing mines-dolphin-ice? If so, where can I find it?
1b) What are the recommended antilag settings (I have 3/36)

2) The Kiel and Canal Harbour Pilots v2.8 eject at Bunker (in both Full version and Parts 1&3):

The pilot ejects immediately after starting the script for the Kiel Harbour Pilot at the bunker. However, if I remove version v2.8, the script included in MO works OK but then the script for the Toulon mission is missing ...

I have already removed the entire game and documents/SH5 folder, reinstalled, upgraded to SH5 1.2, reloaded MODS and the problem still persists.

2a) Should I use a different version other than 2.8 to get the Toulon script?

3) Black transport ships

Some convoys contain transport ships with no skin, all the ship is black with no details.

3a) Is there an additional patch for fixing the black ships?

I'm running SH5 v1.2 with MO and OH II v1.5 on a Win7 64 bit Professional SP1, 8GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 5400 video card and this is the updated MOD list after reinstalling the game:

Drop a spy of at londonderry hey :nope: The place is crawling with DDs :yeah: and with the IRAI V31 test it is awesome so far .

Hi Rocko:salute:


1) Low FPS and frequent crashes (in both Full version and Parts 1&3):


Your PC specs look good so you should get ok FPS.
I get about 30-40 when within 30km of a busy harbour.

Shadow setting can effect this. In MO there is an addon mod to reduce the quality of the shodows and han help fps - alos in your games graphics settings, try and reduce shadows to under half.

CTD - can you confirm that you do not use 2 graphic cards in crossfire - this will cause ctds.
If all else fails - you could try OHII light v3

2) The Kiel and Canal Harbour Pilots v2.8 eject at Bunker (in both Full version and Parts 1&3):

I think this may be due to an error reading anyone of the automation scripts. Can you confirm that other scrotps work ok or do they drop out too?

If you go into TDWs options.py (C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Applications\OptionsFileEditorViewer) there is an option under the automation tab to enable "Automation Debugging".
Turn this on and run the autopilot - when it fails you should get an error report (you may need to Alt+Tab out to see it.
Let me know what is reports.

3) Black transport ships

Not sure about this one - it could be related to you low fps issue:hmmm:

Cheers

Add patch (when in bunker) after OHII v1.5 using JSGME and allow overwrite.


I am having an issue with updating post 1 - I will add patch there when sorted:up:

Hi Trevally!

First many thx for the patch! :up:

And second a question, must I start a new campaign after enable the patch? I´m on Mid-Patrol on "Coastal Water" campaign!

Best regards,
Magic

Hi Magic:salute:

No you do not need to re-start.
the changes are in 2 campaigns only "AC" and "DW" so the updates will take effect before you reach those:up:

Aaah, okay! :up:

It means, I complete my current patrol and sail to my homeport, and when I´m beeing in the port (bunker) I enable the patch and then I can continue the Campaign "Coastal Waters", right?

Best regards,

[Rongel]

Hi All,

First of all, I want to thank the OH II development team for their effort and constant support.:yeah:


3) Black transport ships

Some convoys contain transport ships with no skin, all the ship is black with no details.

3a) Is there an additional patch for fixing the black ships?



Nooo, black ship again?! What was the name of the black ship? Was it a new imported ship with a really long name? There were problems with one particular ship, but it should be fixed by now. Just yesterday I spotted the same ship in campaign, all was good. I'm not yet using 1.5, but I have all the same ship fixes applied. I have to check that 1.5 really uses the right fixes. Anyway, I'll look into this when I have time.

[THE_MASK]

Oooo that looks nasty:O:I was gone , my campaign was over .
That was until he hit something and exploded :haha:

This is completely new to me, I've never heard anyone mention issues with crossfire? I use two 5770s (have to since pushing the particle sliders up), and I get the same amount of CTDs as I do when I used to run it on a single card.

Is there a link to confirmation of this? :salute:

I think the OHII 1.5 has new additions and everything which is great, but I can't even uyse tim compression returning to port now. Idk maybe its my CPU, my system is very old and I'm bottle necking with a vid card 9800 gt by nvidia. My CPU is a P-D 2.00ghz so maybe thats why it crashes. Im thinking of getting rid of OHII and just doing stock campaign or some other campaign that doesn't cause so many CTD's and allows me to use high time compression. Btw I'm using the 1.5 base, and only mods I installed at sea were the IRAI upgrade .31 and a couple sound mods.

Hmm indeed, ok. Initially thought maybe just an Nvidiea issue but seems to affect crossfire users too.

Odd that, I have no more CTDs with both ATI cards enabled than I do with one, sometimes less. I started using two cards to max out the particle slider and maintain my fps only a month or so back. Maybe a new ATI driver has eased the problem and Nvidia haven't caught up yet..:O:

You could try OHII light - it is the stock game with new objectives. Nothing added that will lift game requirments above stock

When I finally got SLI working - I tested in historic missions and everything was great - cards running a lot cooler - shared use:yep:

Then when i returned to my campaign - I got ctd when planes attacked me just outside one of the med harbours.
At first I thought I had messed something up in the campaign files as i had been editing them.
I stripped out the changes and still did not work. I was pulling my hair out when I thought "SLI".
I removed it and no more ctds

Very strange, especially as I'm fairly sure it's been aircraft causing CTDs for me, too - when it happens. Most noticeable in later campaigns (which I'm only now reaching) where air attacks on German freighters around the Lorient/etc area occur.

But, it's happened with & without xfire. Can't imagine why planes would cause it, of all things though. Another SH5 mystery!

Ok, but I have a new problem. I completed the objectives and my progress bar is full but appearntly there were others I needed to complete that come with the mod? When i end patrol it said I had 5 other objectives I never saw or could chose when I requested mission on the briefing. Is there a way to see the other objectives because I only have costal waters, with the patrol 70k tons, then sink Capital which I completed both and returning to port puts me at same mission :shifty::shifty:

[Trevally.]

Hi Sober,

Those are unfinished files from the stock game and will not cause any issues. You can add to your ignor list.

I think the last one is from MO:hmmm: It is also ok as will will have the soan info only (from TDWs UI)
