Wait you suggesting downloading from filefront and not subsim? Corrupted dl maybe since it never works for my comp and freezeS? mmm perhaaaps

No, I saw no no difference with the files from the two sources. I was just ruling out that possibility.

dezertflyr,
Are you using nHancer or nvidia control panel to set your antialiasing?

nHancer

dezertflyr,
I wondered about this as I didn't have an option for multisampling in nvidia control panel.
I don't use nHancer so just wondering if there is a way to disable it. Then go to nvidia control panel and set your antialiasing to application control. Start your game and see if you still get black screen.

Best of luck to you.

That didn't change the situation but thanks for the suggestion.

My guess is that it's driver or hardware related. For example, have you got all the codecs to play videos? I know this is not solving your problem but perhaps you should try and install it on another computer to see what could be different.

I thank all of you for the ideas.

Until I get an understanding of what specifically changes from OM-to-OMEGU that apparently taxes my system I'm afraid I'll just be SOL :damn:

Tip: if you get black screens it's always a good idea to press the "Windows" key, because sometimes there is a message box hidden behind.

yes, that's good idea, try to find out what OMEGU actually changes. Could it have to do with:
-the environmental shader?
-the video that plays in the main menu?

okay i just cannot run OMEGU without it freezing and getting CTDs.. Ive tried everything. Mite have something to do with im running game through STEAM i dunno.. but regardless its not working. Which is fine im running OMPlot v410 with OpMon. However i wanted to know if there was anything i could do to enhance OpMon with speech fixes and maybe a small enviornmental fix without all the flash of OMEGU.. I want the atlantic dark sea not the stupid pacific sea coloring and i least want a good sound/speech mod to go with OpMon that would conflict with it. Right now i have Spaxs Uboat Speech Fix V4 installed but havent tried it out yet, gotta start from my inbase savegame because i just uninstalled OMEGU as im typing this. Any suggestion/help/mod tips?

SUCCESS! :salute:

I deleted the two movies from C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\MODS\OMEGU_v300\Data\Movies then enabled OMEGU and it's patch :woot:

"Jawohl herr Kaelun! Einmitten vorhaus!" or something like that was sure nice to hear :cool:

Did that cause ur OMEGU to crash? And deleting those movies no more crashing!?

Good 'adition' to Operation Monsun..
for we, that continue playing SH4..

Just got my first ship. It was some sort of a 9000ton merchant with a stupid name (a bunch of letters) but anyways I laid two mines in it's path then veered to port and waited for it to strike the mines.

Great mod:yeah:
