The Wolves of Steel: Bugs, glitches and issues thread

I only ever give Honest answers. Bull**** helps no one. Doesn't help
me, doesn't help the mod maker, and doesn't solve problems.

I kept getting errors. the first few installs failed from my own fault, however
I got a lot of errors as well. Either during the install process from the patcher, or in game with black screens over the game when you spawned in the sub pen. Never did find out what caused that.

In the end, persistence won out. It took all day, and it wasn't till about
10pm that it finally worked. It's worth all the pain though, because Sh5 with WoS is the game we always wanted.

Now if I could just get it in the pacific theature.

Cheers

I have the uplay version of SH5 and my game borked with that update that broke TWOS so I applied that DVD exe that is floating around here somewhere after not having played for a few months.
But now I am plagued with all sorts of glitches that I feel like are some sort of copy right protection scheme.
What I noticed so far:

- Icons are not showing up on the map occasionally. They will get reported but nothing shows until I look at them myself.

- CO2 does not drop after surfacing till like on the surface for a few hours.

- Crew stops going up on the conning tower.
- Engine does not stop running when docked.

These are not things that happened before the UPLAY bug.

All those problems are probably caused by game alt-tabbing. SH5 does not like that, keep that in mind...

I'll keep that in mind, I did get kicked out of the game by some lousy popup at some point.

Is this a TwoS bug or sh5?

Incase image does not work. It has to do with my ahead slow/ahead flank etc dial. When i press speed 3, the light goes to 3 but the arrow goes to 2. Same with 4, the light goes to 4, arrow goes to 3. Except with 5, here light and arrow go to 5. As its supposed to.

Just normal Sh5 dial in the left bottom side of the screen. Only Twos mod, nothing else. Bug stays in campaign and in historical mission.

Any ideas?

That's normal.

Read TWoS Quick start manual before you post please...

Thank you for the response, I have no idea if I did accept an update for Uplay, it might be possible, I decided the safest thing to do is a complete clean reinstall, and then refrain from using the 3 non-TWOS mods.Plus I am going to try the Berbsters suggestion by playing SH5 offline, see if that indeed makes the difference.
