Sorry to resurrect this thread but I'm a new owner (grudgingly so as wife bought it for me and I can't return it) and have installed a few mods and this thing is incredibly unstable! These are the mods I have installed:

I've done about 4 missions so far and have had 2 freezes where the game just stops responding and 2 CTD at the same location as I try to go the the eastern side of Britain to sink some ships. Is it related to the environmental mod? When I tried out the game with my brother-in-law's copy to show him how to do stuff there were never any issues like this (crashing/locking up), though that was 1.1 and no use of the environmental mod but most of the others and a few more. Any ideas what I should try? Thanks.

Also, seeing I have your attention.

I notice that with my 295GTX that with my settings I still get this ugly banding in the sky, especially around sunrise and sunset and it looks like I'm using 16bit color instead of 32bit. Is this normal or related to the environmental mod? Any special settings to look at in game or my graphics card? Thanks for any help you can give!

One problem I see is you need to add Env Mod. 3.1 to your mod list also it fixes some issues with 3.0

Your CTD issue is a problem with the climate zones in Env Mod 3.1 Steel Viking did a fix for the entire map and it does work.

Heres the Fix:

Thanks Wolfling04, I have figured out that it was related to that mod, once disabled no more problems. I also posted this finding in the env.3.0 thread and Viking said that he is aware of the coastal CTD issues and hasn't fixed them yet, he may actually just take out the stuff in those areas that causes it. As for 3.1 I guess I misunderstood the install directions as I thought I was to just extract the files into the 3.0 directory and overwrite the files there, which is what I did. Maybe I'll try it again once I'm back in port.

Sober, thanks for that list of mods, looks like there's several in there that I want to check out! I also like what you've done so far mod-wise, thanks.

Reaper7 did a sky mod for the banding.

Hartmann · 08-16-10, 03:19 PM

I think that crashes could be caused by Mod Soup . Every shV is different and some are a good mod mix while others can have conflicts.

Now we have a lot of mods and this could be a problem until the first pack could be released.
