I am about 1 step, or less, from throwing this game into the trash...
I have got patched up to include a portion of v1.3 (by TDW), on that I just got the Hphones working (I hope) as the other stuff can wait. I competed the tutorial and started new campaign (as directed) as using OHII. Yes, I have tried to follow the directions as well as possible.

Started new campaign > selected Coastal Waters> selected Difficulty> selected skip for 'Tutorial' and it then dumps me into the Sub pen and I go up to an officer and am given these options:

1. What are my mission orders?
2. Let's start the new mission
3. Nothing more to say

1. Question: If I select #1 it explains about the Royal Navy and blah, blah, blah but then I cannot break out of it. I get stuck there. I cannot navigate the sub out of pen or etc so I assume that I do not want to select this one, correct?

So, I select #2 and end up on the Bridge and I navigate the boat out into North Sea, is this correct so far? (I hope so or it most likely is going into the trash)

2. Question: Out on the North Sea I figure I should do a few practice dives so after checking the depth of the water I tried to go to Periscope Depth and/or Crash Dive but the icons are whited out and the text says 'Can't submerge while crew on deck' or something like that. I can find no way to get the crew off deck or how to submerge. Yes, I have tried the keyboard also. Yes, I have selected the Watch Officer but no-joy.

3. Also, notice that I have NOZAURIO'S SKIN (U-552-Red Devil Emblem) v-1.0.0
Mod loaded. However, on external view I see no Devil Emblem on the tower. I've no idea. JSGME seems to load it correctly...dunno
