Splendid, thank you so much :DL

Unzip and place these in the mod's \data\Scripts\Menu folder. Let them overwrite the old ones. Run the DbgView before starting game and when problem happens (if it does) play the game for a little amount of time (say 15mins) and then exit game. I'll need to see the DbgView output once again :up:

If the problem doesn't happen I'll still want to see the full DbgView output please

With these the mod will circumvent the way it uses for getting the sunk ships and thus you will not get messagebox entries or destroyed marks for sunk ships. Just want to ensure this is the cause of the mouse 'unclicking'

I've tested it now and it's working!:woot::yeah: No "unclicking" anymore! The mouse still get stuck in view mode but I can live with that (I just need to first leftclick before I rightclick to get to the cursor mode). Thank You TDW! :DL Here is my new log.

Can you narrow down exactly what causes the mouse to get stuck in view mode :06: What sequence of events or actions causes this?

I just go in to the navigation map view and then when I exit it and try to rightclick to change my view mode to cursor mode I can't. I must first leftclick and then rightclick to get to the cursor mode. This is a stock problem because I'm having it without any mods installed.

Where are you before opening the navigation map (at a scope, hydro panel, etc.)? How do you exit the navigation map? When you exit the navigation map does it return you to where you were before?

It doesn't matter if I click on the actual map on the table or use the shortcut button. And it doesn't matter if I do something while in navmap view or just entering it and exiting. Sometimes the same problem occurs when I interact with other objects and/or crew members but then it's random.

PS.
Will it be possible to get messagebox entries and destroyed marks for sunken ships and at the same time skip this mouse problem? Is it doable?

The only way I found to get the sunken ships is the method I currently use. This, for some reason, causes a problem on your computer. I haven't had any other reports of this so it's just an isolated incident on your computer :-?

When, and if I ever do, find a better method I will surely implement it :yep:

help!!!
 

Can someone send me a link to the latest version/patch of Silent Hunter 5

@Rourke777: Just go to your SH5 folder\Support\GameUpdater and doubleclick on gu.exe. The game will then auto update to newest version (1.2).

@TDW: Thank you for your answer and your help. I usually don't experience any strange bugs and lags in games but when I do it's always those isolated, "no one ever heard of that" bugs (It's just like the starshell gun and flares that I was forced to disable due to lag just before the ships shoot them up). :cry: I don't know how I can find the solution to this problem if this is because of my rig. I just reinstalled Win 7, updated all drivers, changed my mouse and the issue is still there. I just don't understand how this sunken ship checking can cause my mouse to detach. Does "New UI" do something with the mouse? Does it change how the mouse should behave? I really want to fix this permanently without loosing those awesome features in your mod... :wah:

Don't give up hope. I can usually find another way to do something that I want to do. The solution just isn't obvious to me yet :hmmm:

I'm trying to not loose my hope, but I'm a very stubborn person and all I do now is trying to solve this problem. I'm trying to eliminate software and hardware that can cause those problems. I know it isn't my antivirus, it isn't KeyScrambler, my mouse, my soundcard nor my keyboard. I've played with so many settings in windows and other software and I still can't pinpoint the cause. The one thing I cannot check is my graphic card, but I doubt that it can cause those problems. I'm so frustrated because I spend quite a lot of my money to build a rig that will run my games smoothly and now I got a "isolated" problem with SH5. :-?
Thank you TDW for trying to help me with this.

Hi TDW!

I'm bored because I cant play the game right now, so I'll just bombard the forum with questions. So: could it be possible to write in the journal during high Time Scale? Currently it always pauses the game if I try to write in it.

There is so little to do during travelling, writing to journal would be really nice way to spend the time. Currently i'm not using it that much because it stops the game.
