I’m really sorry for you mate, but all was tested with success by many and you’re the first one with this issue...so my conclusion this issue HAS TO BE on your side

...now how to solve it, i dunno as you have tried plenty things already.
Have you enough RAM? It seems game (GPU) doesn’t want to render the particules

I have 8GB of ram. That should be enough.

Fifi · 05-07-20, 12:48 PM

It should. I have 16.

Texas Red · 05-07-20, 02:24 PM

grrr now. I've found other people having the same problem as me but with GWX and SH3. But it was a mod that messed up a smoke file.
LOTS of the forums I am reading say that they have a smoke mod that messed up the game.
Or I am missing the correct materials.dat file.

EDIT: Looking through the tex folders, both TNormal and TLowRes, I only see explosion and fire dds and tga files. No smoke files.

I fixed the problem now!

I just switched from the Ubisoft version I was using and I went to Steam and it worked!

Thank you so much guys!

Even though you didn't do much, lol.

Cannot wait to try out this mod!

After a few save-games, I was running along the Eastern British coast, trying to make my way to AN51. I quit the game and went to play it again today only for it to hang around the "Please-Wait" thing after a save-game has finished loading. I looked at the save-game file size and saw that the size is 1.59 MB which is pretty small to me, maybe that is super big to you guys.

I have applied LAA to the .exe so it can use more RAM, but that hasn't fixed anything.
Any way to fix this @Fifi?

Fifi · 05-09-20, 01:03 PM

I’m sorry to hear you are very unlucky with this mod.
Corrupted save file? It can be as SH4 is unfortunately for us very prone to this

I used to make quite many saves from time to time to avoid this. Rolling back to previous always make the trick.
