New guy with some questions

[Captain_Leavitt]

Another question although a bit off topic. I recently heard about the movie das boot. Shocking I know lol. I would love to watch this movie but I ran into a problem. I can't find it with English subtitles. I can find it with subtitles in every language except English. Does anybody know where I can stream this video so I can understand it or do I need to buy a physical copy of the movie?

Thanks THEBERBSTER. I've been reading up on sober's mod list and that has helped me greatly. That being said I have run into some difficulty. The generic patcher download. It confuses the hell out of me. It sounds way way way more complicated then what it probably is. I've read all the documentation on it and I still don't have a clue lol. Is this something I (REALLY) need or can I do without?


EDIT, So I just read post #40 regarding decks awash and I do need the generic patcher. This makes things very difficult. I wish there was a simpler way to get that mod to work. I'm, gonna have to have a friend who is more knowledgeable then me read up on it then use team viewer to help me get this installed and working without giving me a migraine.

Did you not follow my instructions on Post #2?

If you follow each step you should not have any trouble as I have had some good reports back on this.

I just spent quite a few hours reading your guide and it's very helpful. The instructions that are on the mod page just seemed way too complicated. The step by step instructions that are in your guide are practically idiot proof lol. Thank you for taking the time to make it. I think part of the problem is (for me anyways) that there is a lot of conflicting info. For example I've noticed that some of the larger and more popular mods will have links in them for several threads where there are more then one version of the mod and or several install instructions on various pages where the info conflicts with each other. This is where everything starts getting confusing lol. Anyways your guide made my life that much easier so thank you.


EDIT, I know sh5 only has one (class) of sub. The type vii. I was wondering if when you get a new sub is it a (upgrade) U21 viia to U21 viib, or do you get a completely new sub in which case you have to re purchase all previous upgrades with renown?

[THEBERBSTER]

Have a look at Post #35.

Sobers and Myself are both using mod lists that are stable.

You can pick and choose which ones you want to use.

There are mods that cheat the system by allowing you free and different upgrades.

Go to the 'Downloads Tab' and go to SH5.

Thanks THEBERBSTER, very helpful and much appreciated.

If you want subtitles, just Google "Das Boot subtitles". You'll find what you need.

I installed on a bunker save, i think it was sometime after east british coast (in oh 2.5) , thinking back i assume it was after i got rebased and wasn't to see kiel again

I am about to add my flags back, i need a merchant or two to finish the eastern british coast, so i'm rebased when i get back, so flags-r-us again lol

I got all the way to south western (2nd after scapa flow i think) with my flags on previously, before dying and adding/messing with mods and starting another career

Hope that helps

I was going to ask you this a while back because I noticed you had the flags in your mod list. I had a pang of jealousy since I love those flags and can't use them without CTD. So are you saying it can actually work if you enable them after a couple of missions once you move away from Kiel?

[Defiance]

Heya,

I found no problem with them after say getting rebased to wilhelmshaven .............................

I have actually started a fresh career with them installed

Finally got the pc back to health after severe overclocking instability (my fault lol) so i can rule out oc'ing as a ctd cause now, but i have just had a ctd after sinking most of the sitting ducks in danzig bay

I have just checked whocrashed, and it looks like the ctd was caused by a mod (never had Dbgview enabled did i grrrrrrrrr)

But i think it's the flags for a guess, also, pinner2010 uses his before FX update, and he didn't get a crash while doing baltic missions (well i don't think he did)

So conclusion is for me, after initial mission/s they're good to go when installed after FXU and Equip upgrades, or before both of these

But interestingly, the dates and certain items both equip upgrades and sub flags sgre are not the same, only on 2 sub variants though, so i'll look into sorting those items and see how it goes

I think i have cured my ati driver error too (watch, i bet i've spoke too soon hehe) so deffo pointing to the conclusions above, just gotta rule them out one by one

This was already resolved. The only way to get it with english subtitles is to have a netflix sub or give my email address to shady websites. Other then that it is virtually impossible to find it in english. Trust me, I googled the hell out of it for 5 hours.
