Game freezes if a german vessel is attacked?

[Meldric]

Hi everyone!

If I start a new campaign and send a torpedo to a german vessel in the harbour, the game will freeze to me as soon as the vessel is destroyed. I know that this is not something you are intended to do, but I just wanted to check explosion effects after changing things in my NVIDIA driver, so I wanted to just quickly sink a ship...

It will not happen, if all mods are disabled.

My mods are:

Actually it happens to me too. I actually shot a german Freighter by Accident and the game was freezing (It was not in the Harbor but in the open Sea and I were using the deck Gun. I thought it was a british vessel:doh: )

P.s On your mod load order IRAI should be before New UI´s (afaik)

I had my install order checked by different people (Stoinanm was one of them) and I thought (or "was told") it was ok.

I tested this behaviour with newUIs 6.5.1 and 6.6.0... For now, I'll try not to attack german vessels, but still I am a bit "uneasy" if I know of such a problem... I am sure you know what I mean

It's known bug still from the release version!
Even without mods, if you sink a german or neutral ship and afterwards select the captain's log (H) the game freeze:down:

[Meldric]

Do I get this right:
The games freezes when a german or neutral ship is sunk and the captains log is opened... and with the mods it does it immediatly, because the mods do trigger the captains log when a ship is destroyed?

I do not know what a specific mod combination does, but the game just out of the box is just sloppy programmed and untested that if you sunk a german ship and hit the captain's log afterwards it freezes immediately.
