What is happening in the game when you get the ctd?
Is it always at the same time/area or when you do something?

How far away from Kiel are you?

When you started your patrol - was it from a save game at sea - or from the bunker?

Have you had to return to port yet?
If not - when you left port for the forst time - did you do a save/load so you get a loading screen when you enter your boat?

It was the first mission of a new career and i was on the way back to Kiel.
I was standing on the bridge and navigating along the green buoys (medium fog)
when the game crashed. Loaded the last save (it was an auto save) and the
game crashed within the first minute. Loaded an earlier save and was able
to travel back to Kiel. Maybe a problem because i've played for several
hours and the saves became corrupt?

I had a similar problem with the Scapa Flow mission, but that was with a different
mod list. I will report back about it.

I'm happy to be back to my hometown (yes, i live in Kiel) and not shipwrecked

Hi, Trevally!
I've downloaded your mod some time ago and although I've only played midway through the first campaign, I must say I'm really impressed with your work! It's much easier to immerse myself in the wonderful world of U-boats with OHII.

Have you considered releasing an optional version of your campaign with BRT goals realistically decreased?

Also, I completed Breaking the Fortress within the time limit and managed to sink a capital ship. Then I got infiltrating Scapa Flow as a side-mission for Northern Approaches and can't find any capital ships in the harbour (it's November '39, I think). What should I do?

Thanks Rythin

Having muti versions makes it hard to keep up to date. Even when some updates are the same for all versions - it is still hard.
For the most part each update for full and part require me to work on each (esp during packing).
I would be much happier with one rebalanced version and v2 is getting closer to that.

OHII uses a lot of stock data and this mission is one example. I should look this one out and remove it.
I would suggest that when you get back to port you make a formal complaint about bad intel

Just ignore it - it will not effect your campaign

In Kiel i have 30-45 fps, and over 100 fps if i am alone in the middle of the ocean. How can i improve fps in Kiel.

...Kiel isnt the only problem, wait until you find one of those mega convoys, frames can be lower than sailing arround Kiel area. Realistic or not i realy dont need such mega convoys...

30 to 45 fps isn't that bad. I've seen a lot of people with much less.

The simple answer is, try the anti-lag mod. Beyond that the only real solution is to edit the campaign and remove most of the ships. But I wouldn't advise that.

Wow V2! great additions
Thank you guys!

wasn't the release of a patch for reducing convoys size already discussed on your suggestion? what happened to it?

I get a CTD every time I use harbor plot automation (tested with Kiel and Wilhelmshaven), when I enter port manually no problems occur.

Using Sober's mod list and automation scrips are 99% of reasons why I get CTD.

[Trevally.]

Harbour pilot is not the reason for your ctd.
If there is an error within TDWs script engine - it will be ignored and just not run.

Your ctd must be something else

[TH0R]

Any clues to what it might be?

I've just checked the post here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=174525

I don't see any scripts to enter Kiel (only Cuxhaven and Skagerrak) or
Wilhelmshaven from nearby; i see only outbound scripts which must
be started while in the bunker (start of mission).

What TC do you use while entering/leaving the harbour?
