What version of New Uis are you using . I am using the latest test version and am getting the null sink date as well with no tonnage bar fill .

7.4.2 initially, 7.5 currently

Maybe their servers are down in addition to their forums?

I am over this . Spintires it is then .

Seriously.

Something is seriously ****ed, and I suspect it is on the UBI end, otherwise it wouldn't be happening to so many people.

Back to GWX I fear

Sober, one last update: I noticed that their forums are back up...

Started up in online mode, loaded a save pre sinking, sunk the buggers, got a mission complete

I do believe this rather conclusively demonstrates that the issue has nothing to do with mods

Trying to post to the ubisoft forum, but their image verification is not loading

No .

It's back to not filling again.

I've got a support ticket open with Ubi.

This sucks.

not sure how long i've been having this, i was in the western approaches early march and after reading this post i guess my tonnage was just not counting at all, at the time i thought the objective was just a LOT of tonnage so it wasnt visibly climbing up after every kill...

anyway, i wanted to take part in the Norway campaign and got the radio message to break off and go home to prepare. cool.

got home march 15th, could not select norway campaign. :stare:
started empty missions, immediately docked again. new patrol, could select weserubung, start patrol. the date is April 9th... :stare:
reload save from 15th on the north sea. I always make a save before docking called 'return save'. spent 5 game days bumming around, docked, start weserubung and start patrol. it's now april 4th, enough time to actually make it to narvik by the 9th. good.

so i am still shaking my head at the trouble i had to go through just to be able to take part in weserubung. then i sail up the norwegian coast, sinking a big british troop transport which was all alone. Not in the narvik area of operations, it did not count towards mission tonnage, which struck me as silly, but yeah. operations area and all that, i thought.

then i entered the narvik fjord. 2 norwegian destroyers are in the narrow channel. i sunk both, no credits at all for 1, the other did show in my captains diary but did not count towards mission goal. strange, i thought.

then i am in the narvik port. there is nothing there, not even a single ship. i cant lock on to anything, i cant photograph anything through the scope, nothing. so i am scratching my head wondering how i am to achieve the mission goal. screw it, i am in the harbor, i send all the radio messages the game lets me send and i get back out. its early morning april 9th.

on my way back out the massive fjord i come across a massive british convoy. quite a lot of escorts for early 1940 and quite a few liberty ships as well :har:

anyway, i sink 2 liberties and 2 more are listing. bit of DD evasion, reloading torps and back to periscope depth to try a finishing blow. CTD upon entering periscope view so i ragequit right there. before the CTD i DID notice the mission bar (twofold: sink ships entering narvik, sink enemy ships in the area, or something similar...) both bars were still empty after sinking the two liberties.

Ok so maybe the mission wants me to sink battleships. i know that warships are on their way so after a relaxing day of SH3GWX3 i get back into the savegame in the fjord before contact with the convoy, i evade the convoy and go hunting for the warships. Sometimes i find a BB, just now I was suprised to find a taskforce of 12 DD with a heavy cruiser.

but now i stumble across this thread and i'm wondering if it's not the Weserubung mission that's broken, its an issue many of you are having these past weeks. I can confirm the 00.00 timestamp thing.

pretty clean install on my game, only wolves of steel. i try to ignore uplay as much as possible, i was sure i had it offline but it gave a bunch of errors last week so i put it online to update (last time i played before this was months ago, the game keeps pissing me off, i forget about it and then after a while i long for the nice graphics and Das Boot feel it gives me. until it's many design flaws piss me off again.)

so what was intended as a bug report has turned into a bit of a rant, sorry about that.

i could just forget about narvik and get back to the western approaches but now i have the feeling i will see an empty mission bar wherever I go, so yeah

fiddled a bit with the uplay launcher, set it to sync savegames again (turned that off a long time ago)

reloaded a save in the fjord, with german taskforce in sight, a sunk V&W norwegian DD sunk just in front of me, the narvik port in sight. basically against all the savegame rules, in other words.

sailed out info the fjord, encounted a norwegian hog freighter, sunk it inside operations area with deck gun. shows up in the captain diary with timestamp 0000.00.00 but this time, it DOES count towards the top mission bar!
so much for that theory, i guess.

mission bar is: sink ships in narvik area of operations (circle is in the big fjord). now 1/5 filled after sinking that 4000 ton Hog A.
second objective is to sink english ships approaching norwegian coast.

i'll see if i can get back to that convoy to see what that does with the objective.

so far all i can say is that syncing savegames with cloud seems to help...

Go online with the ubi launcher settings . Click on Sync with your harddrive option . Start the game and the game will sync your local saves to the cloud when you exit the game . When starting the game next time choose play offline .

This seems to work alot of the time this happens. Its quite annoying. Sometimes simply exiting out of game and then relaunching everything will have it start filling the bar. Other times NOPE. Then switching between off and online often fixes it up. Failing that back to port and pick the mission again with a restart.

What is strange is that you just can not seem to pin it down what will cause it and just what will clear it up. One thing is for sure....its vary annoying.

I have started saving right as I make contact. If it fails to register (assuming I am where I am suppose to be) then reloads and make the attack again and see. It is really crazy making. Sometimes everything is fine for quite some time. And then BAM! UGH. Thanks UBI launcher. No clue what is doing this, but I blame you!


oh and look what made me make my 1st post here. :O::subsim:

Or second even.... HMMM ya.

Make the same thing and it's ok for now

Im very sad.
the megamod is perfect (wolves of steel and dragon addon)
but I can not complete the missions. when I do the sync method the game hangs in the menus now...

how do you make that ? i don't have the setting in Uplay

I followed sobers advice with the online and off line and deleted the cache.

Sank 2 merchants coming out of Danzig Bay.

Captains Log showed 1939-09-01 on everything there.

Completed the mission according to the Captains Log but tonnage bar empty.

Same issue here, I am running the Steam version and saw a lot of people were having issues with it when using mods, played about 30 hrs with Mods enabled, completed Scapa flow (showing completed) and went on to sink thousands of tonnes of cargo on the eastern coast, no progress.
Then I get a radio message that some other U-Boat has just Sunk the battleship that I sunk previously in Scapa! Dec 1st come along and eastern coastal is incomplete.

I uninstall and try to run the (gasp) unmodded version, Eastern coastal waters I find a lovely tanker convoy with a Destroyer Escort, take out the single destroyer straight off the bat then proceed to wipe out the 6 takers in the area.

At roughly 7000 tonnes each I came out with a merchant tally of 43,000 give or take. Absolutely no movement in the progress bar!

I did however notice that after taking out the destroyer I got the completed tick and my patrol area disappeared. could this be the problem?

Really want to sort out the issues and am going to try TDW's method of patching the Steam version so I can Mod, but if the Vanilla version is also not counting my tonnage then what is the point?

I think the patrol area icon disappears when you sink something near it.

The icon is there to show you where you should find your first target.

My dvd installation no longer allows me to logon to Uplay with the Game Launcher and comes up with a windows error message.

I have to uninstall the Game Launcher and go to Ubicrap to get another one that works.

All now re-installed and going to give it another go.

Right, so the patrol icon should not effect the tonnage!

I didn't get to try stuff out last night but something has occurred to me, on starting up with UBI, it synchs the saves, would it be possible that the saves from the modded version are causing the unmodded version to ignore tonnage? If so is there any way of deleting the saves from the UBI synch?

Hi Firebiro

Yes you are correct as previously stated the icon is a guide to where you will find your first target.

The black German roundall icon on the map is the part that is important to your tonnage bar as when you click on it its shows you your patrol area and you need to patrol within the area showing.

Peter

Hi there, also in my game this bug appeared.

Curious is, that date of the sunken ships is correct all the time, the ships are counting among sunk on that particular patrol, even if I sunk first ship of the patrol near designated area (the sinking ship icon) well within the area of operations, the icon dissapears and objective is completed, but as many others report, tonnage bar is not filling up. (I failed to complete Weserubung Op in this manner, even tho the tonnage bar started filling in the begining and then, after CTD while being hunted by HMS Queen Elizabeth escorts, it would not fill any more (I didn't start the game at once, IIRC, but nonetheless...). Then, after docking at base, I went back to Southwestern Approaches mission, sunk ship near icon, again it counted as sunk, date was correct, objective completed, but no progress on tonnage bar...

Tried sobers advice, but no luck, again and again it won't sync after I exit the game (the sync bar starts filling and then, just behind half, it stops and window appers, that states, that my files could not to be sync with the cloud).

There were some (two IIRC) updates for Uplay, since my CTD, which may cause it, but cannot confirm it.

Sorry for so long message... but perhaps it may help in fixing this bug.

How do I go about clearing the cache on Ubi? Or am I missing something. (I am also having this no progress issue with my install of Wolves of Steel. Cannot complete the first missions. Tried online as well as offline with no luck.)
