Open Horizons bug???
 

I have been getting this black / white screen after I save and come back later on. So, little by little, one by one, I would remove an addon and try again. I've finally narrowed it down to Open Horizons. Without OH, I can't get to 1945. Why on earth would the developers only take the war to 1943 is beyond me.

I have tried OH 2; 2.3; 2.4; and Open Horizons 2.5. They all end with the same results. I'll start a new career over, head out to open sea, save it, exit the game, come back, and reload where I left off. And what I get is so dark in contrast it is obviously unplayable. Any suggestions?

I have many others downloaded (but not using) but I'd give up all of these if I could get OH II to work :(
My graphics card (AMD Radeon HD 7900) is up to date (April 2014) and game version is 1.2

Hi

If you are trying to use those mods with OHII then it is quite likely the cause.

You are using some odd ball ones and also the outdated IRAI needs a patch.

Have a look at my tutorial mod list on post #35.

These 3 all work without ctd's.

I'll try that, and report back.

Yea, I do have some odd-ball ones but after playing "real" for some time, I've kind of enjoyed laying back and just laying waste to the enemy for a round. Then after that campaign, back to realism. I play mostly realism (well.... up to 67'ish%).

You are right!! THANK YOU!!!!! I now have the war going up to 1945. However, there are some mods I want to keep, I just need to find the exact one that is conflicting with the OH Mod and not turn that one on. But when I just turn on OH by itself, it works!!

Now I'll just do trial & error and find the culprit that is causing the graphics bug and squash it. Once I find which of my oddball mods is causing it, I'll report back.

Thank you for working with me. I appreciate it.
