Weird...
March 22, 1941
Gwx 2.0, uboat 1.2 and other eye-candy mods, nothing major... Im trying to meet Bismark and give him a hand... game works flawless anywhere, any TC. Imagine a horizontal line that cuts the map in the longitude of AL36, like a equatorial line or a tropic. Everytime my uboat crosses that line, north of AL36, crash to desktop. If I go to west 270 to AK and try to cross that line again, crash to desktop. I cant get nowhere near Denmark Channel, crash to desktop. This is foking insane... why can't I go help my fellows in the battle? I tryed everything... everytime I cross that imaginary line, crash to desktop. Its been 5 days already trying diferent stuff and always crash to desktop when I cross that line, doesnt matter how far east or west I do that. Its driving me insane, I really want to go up there to watch the battle. Is there ANY GOOD SOUL out there that can give me the least bit of a tip on whatta hell is going on? Thanks in advance!

Forgot to mention something
I've edited campaign.scr file so bismark will report his position once each 60 minutes... but I guess its not related to that since the game crashes one day before he showing up... I'll try it without any mods.

Remember mate,
any Mod that just makes graphic changes , like U-boat 1.2, sub skins with just texture maps, any eye candy graphic related Mod at all, doesn't causes crash TD... So either is the changes you've made into the Campaign files, or some other conflict type issue there !

Something as simple as a single missing space/entry in a text file can cause CTD's. Therefore, the possibilities of errors/conflicts in subsequent modifications are endless. All you can really do is to work backwards... removing changes to isolate the cause. If that fails, you'll need to build a fresh installation of GWX. |

Well I think I've kinda isolated it...
The CTD happens only when I go north into AL36 or AK36, AM is not a problem. That Denmark Strait is a hard to get... Anyone using both GWX 2.0 and UBOAT 1.2 are able to reach and pass north of these two grids without a problem? Maybe I've found a sweet spot. All other mods I'm using are eye-candies... I can't find a reason... Here are my mods  First I thought it could be the sea floor mod (which is by the way amazing, you guys should test it, looks very real)... but its not that... doesn't make sense... The rest is skins, sounds and textures, and the problem happens in the middle of the ocean, AL36 and AK36, exactly those two quadrants, CTD in the second my uboat enters those grids. All the rest of the world is working fine. And doesn't matter which way I try to enter those grids, day or night, always CTD on the second. I like misteries like this...

You mean 42? The only time I've experienced this problem was in march 22, 1941... near the bismark appearance in Denmark strait... Nevermind this folks... thanks for the help! I'll wait for gwx 2.1 and try it again...  But you guys gotta agree with me... its freaking weird to get a CTD only north of the grids AL36 and AK36 (draw a line between them and cross north) I mean, its only a very small piece of the map causing ctd... I cant think on ANY possible explanation...
