SHO A few notes

Huh, I had to change current date, as I docked in Kiel in 1939 09 03,

and days in bunker are added AFTER mission selection and patrol start...

Hence I was only able to choose Baltic Operations..

So I changed the current date of the last base enter (and actual current date at teh top of the files) to 05 instead in both of the two CareerTrack.upc . (and changed day and current day to 05 aswell in the .mis file)

to be able to start British Coastal.

Is it anyhow risky?


Another thing: fps in port are alot lower than it was in 1.05 around 17-22- out on patrol it was between 40 and 60.
now its between 6 and 9... in Kiel Port.

Are there many graphical improvements added?

is there any workaround to gain performance that is 2.2 specific?
compared to 1.05.


Some notices: after starting Kiel harbour pilot outbound, when I tried to go up to 32-64tc, frames dropped to 4...

But even on 1tc fps werent above 9.

After entering like 1/3 of the canal, (I believe this is when Kiel gots unloaded) fps went up to 25 in tc 1, and aorund 20 in 64.
Dropped down to 20 in 1tc and 10 to 64 after getting close to the harbor at the other end of the canal.

Now here's another catch: My Nvidia 2 gig video chip is prone to overheating due to need of cleaning the vents..
I kept checking the heat, and it was as mild as during using the operation system itself. While it heats up with every kind of modern game.

So I have a hunch that my 2 gig video chip is not used to it's optimal extent.
(CPU also prone to heating, and still, everything seems handwarm)
It seems that SH5 is not using the available resources. Sh5 with TWOS 1.05 used to fly on it. (around 25 fps in crowded places, and around 40-60 in open sea battles with2-3 ships - was the same a few days ago with the previous 1.05 install)
I believe I'm missing something here after the reinstall, as I am using the same stock options: all on high, with no vertycal sync, no antialias,
1600x900.


Did I forget some optimization we used to do in cfg files or what?

I also noticed that the inside lighting in the sub is changed a lot, seems very bright.
Can this affect performance?
