what mods are you running ?


and to add think you start with the VIIA sub...it kinda has the torp aft on the outside i belive


you reload and check your boat at the guy next to the captain that gives you the orders or the map where you can choose orders...cant remeber excactly since iam not playing stock sh5 iam running OHII

Were you on a mission for the Western Approaches? Because the first mission is generally the 50,000/70,000 on the Eastern side, so sinking ships on the west isn't going to count towards anything really.

Awards and stuff can be done at anytime now from the Crew Page. There's no Captain's Office anymore. You basically just hand out promotion points to increase abilities and give little Iron Cross awards that seem to do nothing. :)

Sorry, my bad, I said western, I meant eastern approaches.

The convoy I attacked was not in the mission patrol grid, but it was in the eastern side of England, between the patrol grid and Scapa Flow.

SON OF A GUN!

If I sank that much and counted for nothing, I'll be pretty upset.

That probably should have counted. You'll need to sink one ship near the yellow patrol area to get credit for that, but the thing that sober posted should have filled up if you basically sunk them anywhere along the east coast there.

I've unfortunately not completed this first mission in my 7 campaign restarts since starting again last week, so can't remember exactly how to finish that mission. Maybe it's date locked? Like the next one can't start till X date so it won't let you finish the first one?

Hi Philipp

Did you progress bar fill up as you sank ships:06:

Is your game running through Ubi launcher:06:

Left over folders from SH3 are not used in SH5 :nope:

Whats this? Ghost ship?

I keep finding these in the middle of convoys, using OH2. Flag frozen.

Got myself a nice small convoy, no escort, total around 40k tons, sank them all with the deckgun, send report to base afterward, but nothing shows in the progress of the mission? Is it cos it's out of the zone?

Saved and exited after sinking all the convoy, total of 8 ships, and the screen is showing over 20 ships and 180k tons? What the hell is going on in my game? That convoy was the first thing sighted in the whole patrol!

Regarding the ship textures , play with hires texture option in the graphics game options .

This is exactly what I see on occasion. Sometimes, if I move the camera closer the texture 'pops in', other times it doesn't - but nearly always with that ship. It's nothing to do with the in-game texture option as it's only this ship that does it, and my textures are on high. Afaik it's not possible to run the game without the launcher either, so I doubt that's it, and I get it while running via the launcher.

I think it's the AOTD/MadMax Passenger (which is also the same as the Hospital ship, I think). I've posted about it before.

Is it included in MO? And hence not compatible with the campaign layers on OHII? I don't know it's ID in the Sea folder so I don't know for sure if it's a stock boat or a modded one. Just throwing out guesses but something's causing the texture to go wonky.

I'd love to find out why, it annoys the hell out of me!

Hi PT, PM sent.:yep:

Not ubi launcher.

I just double click sh5.exe from the game directory.

I use a "special" version so I don't have to connect to the internet.

All my settings are maxed out.

Just to be clear, this is my mod list.

And my system is a G73JH-A1, windows 7 64bit. Yes, all drivers updated.

I'm pretty sure that breaks the campaign than. I remember some posts about that when the game came out. If you're not using the launcher, your campaign won't progress.

This should belong to OH II thread, but anyways. Yep, I noticed that ship too, sometimes it doesn't have textures, I thought that this was fixed already, but there was more weirdness in the ship's files. So anyway, a new ship patch is coming soon (ish) that will fix this finally.

Uekel made a flag fix that is currently being tested, great results so far.

That's great news, nice one!

Hello Philipp_Thomsen.

Try to put OH II after NewUIsTDC in your modlist.

Regards.

Echol:hmmm:t.
