Let`s Play Silent Hunter 5 with full realism. (Season 2)

[Shaefer]

Good evening everyone!

I was about to continue my let`s play this evening, but disaster struck like a dud torpedo.
Whenever I try to load a previous save, my game crash to desktop with the infamous " game stopped responding".
This is bad, very, very bad. I don`t want to start over again...

I have done nothing to my game since the last episode, everything is the same. The only thing I noticed is that the launcher updated.

Did anyone have this problem in the past two months? I`m in desperate need of pointers...

Thanks a ton to all in advanced.

Welcome back Norse God !
I'm not sure what has happen with your game or how can you solve your problem but, I would honestly recommend to you to wait another day or two until I release new patch 9 for Wolves 1.04. and to start new career with it.
There were some major updates regarding realism, gameplay and game stability while you were away...

Maybe something new this time, Happy Times or Western Approaches using "silentotto" command?
This would seem like natural continuation of your current series, not to mention that vast majority of SH5 players are very well familiar with opening CW campaign. I'm sure that everyone would like to see your skills against large north Atlantic convoys this time...

If you really want to call this realistic you must stop hovering your sub at zero knots. Just keep 1 or 2 knots going for dynamic control. Yes it makes your precision plotting harder but you should be eyeballing AOB anyway. Speed you already know how to do with the length/time*1.94 equation. Range you have stad.

Love your videos anyway. Keep up the great work.

PS... Oh yeah! Hold down left control for fine mouse movement while using the stad!.....ur welcome.

Next one is up!

This sounds very interesting.
Are you talking about using "silentotto" to forward my new installment of the game to where I am now in game?
I have been missing finding big convoys....


EDIT# By the way, thank you guys for trying to help with the problems I had with the game. I appreciate it.

Yes, It would be really interesting IMO to see you in HT campaign because very few SH5 players ever played it...

Hi guys

Whenever I try to load a previous save, my game crash to desktop with the infamous " game stopped responding".

This is a Game Launcher problem in the Program (x86) folder and will not affect any of your saved games etc.

It easy to put right and can be a common problem.

All you need to do is run the Game Launcher application as administrator and the game loads.

I have 73 manual saves with TWOS to the 30th October and have had no problems with this mod.



There is no guarantee that the windows error fault will not occur again but as explained the fix is easy and works every time.

I have also notice that this windows problem occurs every time I do a re-install.
This has only occurred since Ubisoft passed it over to Uplay.

I do get a lot of this windows error problem with LSH3-2015 crashing to the desk top before it loads to the menu.

Again this is easily rectified by running SH3Commander each time it happens as administrator and then the game loads every time.

Does this mean that I have to start over to get Happy Times campaign?
Why did so few SH5 players play it?
When I start over I will ofcourse lose all my progress, everything I`ve done in this playthrough, right?
That is something I don`t want to see happen, I don`t want to keep starting over all the time. That way there is no continuation to the series, and it will throw the people watching the series of..

If this is not possible, I can allways do the Happy Times as a bonus campaign when the war is over.
(Notise how I said when the war ends, and not when I die)

OK I understand, but I really can not be sure will your WoS 1.03 gamesaves be compatible with 1.04+patch 11, they should IMO but again , who knows...

Anyway, your videos are awesome no matter what you play...
