Captains log causes crash

[Kaoclya]

Hello all, I am having an issue in which any custom UI I use will cause my game to crash when I click the "Captains Log". Now when I use the stock UI it does not crash the game. I saw a thread about this but the original poster had said he fixed it but did not say how. I also tried starting a new campaign but no luck. Anyone know how I can fix this?

I had the same crash opening captains log to check my kills/total tonnage, after I sunk a ship. I went into the patcher.exe and disabled the aicrew thingy. No crash since that day. So if you are using the patcher, have at it.
And come back to tell us if this worked for you as well. Maybe some modder will look into it.

Can you point me in the direction of what I am looking for? I found the Generic Patcher by TDW if that is what you're talking about. I just don't know what to look for after that.

Parts Magui and TheDarkWraith UI.

You should only use one of these - not both:up:

I only tried one at a time, I did not mix them together. :haha:

Have you enabled anything in the patcher?
Here is a tutorial on how to use it: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=205620 The aicrew are on the last picture. "ai crew dammage Control" When disable ai crew dammage Control I have had no more crashes. I cant say if it is related, because I dont know that much about mods. All I know is that the game dont crash anymore for me.

Thanks for the help but it still crashes :/

Are you running any other mods along with it?

[jakethescot]

I use Parts Magui and used to crash when I went to periscope depth until I installed MCCD_1.04_MFCD_1.2.1ompatible. Now everything works the way it's supposed to.

Hi, I am having this problem too. After I sink a polish destroyer on the first patrol. I am using sober's mega mod list.

Here is what happens.

Before I sink the DD:
I can hit captains log and it works fine.

After I sink a DD:
If I hit captains log the game freezes. Also, if I save after I sink a Polish DD and later try to load that game, the game just freezes with a black screen and doesn't finish loading.

This is the second problem I have had. I cannot use the Trevally Tutorials: when I mouse over them I cannot select them and an error "Corrupt Automation File" displays.

Also, I have the steam version so I can't use the patcher.

Did you happen to use the TDW Patcher and enable supermarks on destroyed ships? That's required for Real Navigation to work, since its happening after you sink something that's where I'd start.

hmm sounds like somthing is overwritting the names.cfg from OHIIv2.2:hmmm:

This is the second problem I have had. I cannot use the Trevally Tutorials: when I mouse over them I cannot select them and an error "Corrupt Automation File" displays.

This error is more common than it should be:hmm2:
The only fix that I know of is to uninsall TDWs UI and my scripts - then reinstall them again in the same order as you had them.

[Kalthios]

Thanks for the help.

I never used the patcher, I have the steam version.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled all my mods, still no joy.

Hi! I've had the same issue in the first mission with sober's mod list. I tried disabling various combinations of the mods and patching with TDW's patcher. Nothing worked.

However, what I've noticed is that I was always heading to the patrol area at flank speed (it's close, no fuel worries) which meant that I made contact with the two polish dds before hostilities officially began. I sunk the ships on 31/08, but war started on 01/09.

So, I tried getting there with a slower speed, making contact with the dds after midnight, so 01/09. After sinking the ships I could see the captain's log just fine, with the mission's primary objective complete, and after saving the game it loaded fine.

I hope this helps!

I can confirm the above story .. had the same issue .. it solved itself by me changing my habits and getting there a little later in the game. Never connected the dots till now. Thanx :)

[Kalthios]

Trevally, tried, no luck. So I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, made sure everything was deleted. Put just the UI and the Tutorial mods on, still got a corrupt automation file error.

Ill try arriving a little later on the DDs, after war is declared and see if that fixes my cap log crash.
