Hey, we know how you feel brutha, but don't give up the ship yet. All of the symptoms you listed are things that CAN be adjusted (save for the CTD's. We'll have to see about those).
Post your Specs for openers, the crashing could be your memory or the mods.
Post your mods, if they're out of order, that could be a problem.
As was mentioned, you need more that two mods to really get this game going, even the best of them can't fix Graphics, Gameplay and Sound.
Most of us here that have got the game rockin' have got fifteen, twenty or more!
We'll help you get the Game goin' just be patient.
Post those Specs.

The CTDs I realize are both my system memory, as well as Graphics. Will be upgrading both.

My big issue are the heavily escorted convoys in happy times, the pinpoint accurate guns, as well as all vessels, merchant and military having guns.

I have Magnum Opus. I did have open horizons, but found the zig zag sequences in that too be completely unreal, there was absolutely no way of getting a firing solution. So that mod was removed. I have Stormy's sound mod as well.

I will look into that link you gave, and I thank you all for this assistance.

It's well to remember that TDW leaves a lot of his work adjustable when it comes to escorts and planes ect. With IRAI I am able to dumb the DD's back just a bit if I like. So, if it seems like too much, see if TDW's left some of that tweakable.

OHII does not control the zigzags

That's odd, cause after I un-installed OH, the convoys stopped the crazy zig zaggs.. Now I am confused.

Okay, here are my mods. LOL. Yes, pathetic compared to what I am now understanding what I should have.

Also some may be outdated too.

Magnum_Opus_v0_0_1
Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 Basemod
Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 additional crew sounds beta6
Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 optional louder engine sounds
Stormys DBSM SH5 v1.3 optional scary creaks
Enhanced FunelSmoke1.2_by HanSolo78

I hope I can get more pointers. cause My boat just got taken down to 69% hull by friggin machine gun fire from a merchant I just torpedoed with a night surface attack. I don't think ONE U-boat was that badly damaged by pin point machine gun fire. LOL.

Your Magnum Opus mod needs updating right away. It's up to 0.0.3 or something, so that right there could help alot. Yeah, within Magnum opus you've got a lot of go to mods anyway. Really, try updating that one.
Good Hunting!
