Hello Cavalieri, welcome to Subsim.

What do you mean by bow? You mean the front rudders?
Let me know.

If that is the case, your sub is probably damaged or immersion doesn't work properly. You need to add some more information anyways :D

Hi Krieg, i forgot to add more info, i dont know if is the dive planes or the ballast tank, the "front part" of the sub dont dive no matter what i do. I know
that is not a mod the cause of the problem because i have the problem in a "vanilla" test, i really dont have any idea what to do, i love the game and the german u boat history but so far i only have trouble with the SH5.

The stock game you are playing is broken and bugged > unplayable.:down:

From the image you posted, it looks like the dive planes are working in the opposite way they should :/ I'm not entirely sure if that is an error or just the sub systems being screwed up by the fast dive.

Have you tried restarting a campaign a seeing if the problem persists?
Also, are you running steam version?

[Redwake]

I'm on the steam version, and I don't got that problem, vanilla version. But I do got a problem where the sub will keep sinking past the assigned depth. You got that problem to?

[Cavalieri]

Hello Krieg and Redwake, I tried everything, restart the campaign and everthing else, same result after a few dive's the boat mess up like in the pic i send, i'm also on a steam version game, but i already did the "correction proces" for that, the only "quick fix" i found so far for my problem was instal the Open Horizons 2 ( full version), it works pretty well for me and give me time to learn for a future install of the WoS mod, by the way, thanks for everybody for the attention and the tips.
:Kaleun_Cheers:

[Krieg Francis]

I definetly reccomend to install WoS, that modpack is a Heaven on Earth.

Anyways, my sub never sank after passing the assigned depth, excluding when I took damage from depth charges.

[maillemaker]

Unless you have set your dive planes to manual, you should not have any problems diving your boat to a depth of 180 meters. Your chief can trim the boat at any speed to any depth up to that limit.

After 180 meters, you have to maintain at least slow ahead and you will have to manually adjust the dive planes to keep from sinking. For some reason your chief suddenly forgets how to trim the boat at depths beyond 180 meters.

Hi Guys
In the stock game you have no control of the dive planes.
The problem is probably a stock game bug but it is not one I have come across before.
It maybe a game corruption.
I would recommend uninstalling and re-installing.
Use a registry cleaner before reinstalling

The uncontrolled sinking when you reach a certain depth is a bug that is fixed in TDW's Generic File Patcher.
You can fix that problem here if using Steam.

Yeah, i discovered that after i start playing, but i dont know why, but that work for me, no more "dive plane" bug, lol.
I'm about to give a try to the WoS but i'm totaly new in this subsim thing and i'm feared to dont like the mod because i dont have mutch experience with the manual tdc and everything else =/ (i am playing in the medium diffcult).

... and i'm feared to dont like the mod because i dont have mutch experience with the manual tdc and everything else =/ (i am playing in the medium diffcult).

:Kaleun_Salute:

Then disable manual TDC option and skip optional hardcore addons (real nav, encr.BdU orders ect), I don't see any problems there... :hmmm:

Just note that during your campaign play trough, gameplay options can be changed only in bunker...

[Cavalieri]

Thanks for the tips, for sure i'll give a try after i finish the open horizons campaign. :salute:

I have the same problem.

SH5 (non steam), Generic File Patcher, Wolves of Steel V2.0, Enviroment15.

VIIa Uboat is fine on surface, and can run decks awash.

The moment batteries are required the aft section sinks, and the bow section floats. At a speed less than 2 knots, the boat dives rear first. At +2 knots the boat pushes through to the surface.

I have tried manually adjusting aft and bow planes, to no avail.

I managed to get the VIIa back to port, thinking it was damaged, just to start the new patrol with the same problem.

Is the only solution uninstall, clear registry, reinstall?

There's your problem...Don't use incompatible mods if you don't know how to optimize them manually...
