I'm reading this thread and there's so much frustration and grief...
I think it's time to finally put an end on this subject and make SH5 /OH2 campaign available for everyone with completely open gameplay and date controlled missions, including players with annoying tonnage bar bug.
I've got really simple idea how to accomplish that, half of the job is already done by my BAN of tonnage bar from TWoS megamod. More on this later...
