[REL] Icebergs!

[The General]

Because SH5 is unfinished and has a few problems I cannot guarantee that you can see the Icebergs, there is a weird 'camera-out-of-sectors' problem for example, also, your watch crew may not always alert you to their presense under TC. I'm sorry it's all very hit & miss, but if The Devs had been given enough time to finish SH5 then things'd be alot easier

I did put them in all the Total Germany and Artic Convoy missions, these are the only missions in the Campaign that occur during the Winter months and take you to areas where you're likely to encouter Icebergs. Happy hunting

THe Iceberg's will remain there during the Total Germany and Acrtic Convoy's Campaigns.

Lol, thanks The Beast There has been an update since that #1 Post and I'm not entirely sure we aren't sending him on a wild-goose chase, I haven't tested v1.3 myself yet

EDIT: I just went looking for them and had that 'Camera-out-of-Sectors' thing happen when switching to External view, so I'm pretty sure the Icebergs are there somewhere. If you have this happen save the game and reload and the Iceberg should appear. Sorry it's not more predictable, it's just SH5 is not what you'd call a 'polished product'.

::EDIT:: You may want to check if you are using a old Cameras.dat that hast the problem.

Didnt Ubi release a cameras.dat update in the 1.2 patch?

You may want to check your Cameras.dat to ensure you are not using a old one.

LOL I was blaming recent changes in TDW UI 3.06 mod for the `camera out of sector` all of a sudden starting to appear for me - are you saying this is caused by the iceberg mod ?

So, whenever I`m close to icberg the camera out of sectors pops up and I should then save and load the mission again and the iceberg will be out there ?

I am using a FreeCam Tweak v1.1 but that uses a Cameras.cam file not the .dat file. How do I check if I have an up-to-date Cameras.dat file? Where is it?

Yes, that's correct.

I used to use FreeCam Tweak 1.1 as well, but had to give up when starting TDW UI mod as these two are conflicting

I've just tried to go to where the icebergs should be and my computer crashed! Not just CTD but fully Crashed I'm sorry but I don't think it's gonna work, I'm gonna delete this Mod from the Forum and recommend everybody uninstall it. Sorry to've wasted everybody's time
