Anby other of the tolls found under "E" ist where it shall be, just these two.


I'm playing with:
- encrypted bdu orders
- real navigation
- wooden lifeboats
- env settings brighter nights
- interior food stocks
- remove sub flags
nothing else.


Restarting the game did not work.


Any idea?


Thanks,

Delete all dragables.tdw files from your game folder and start the game. That should do the trick...

Cheers,


great thanks, that solved it!


I do have one more problem:
Any marks and drawings on the map are lost when loading a savegame. Logbook entrys are kept. And I do exit the game first to main menu to save my log and all markers, and then exit.



Thanks in advane

Hello Guys.

I had just install the game after a few years and TWOS last version (2.2.20). I just tried to run a historic mision before the first carreer. Indeed I dont init any carreer yet. To my surprise after playing during two or three hours I get CTD when I press F2 to see exterior view, in that moment I was in the map calculating the AOB to the target. I don't know why..... Please if someone could help. Thanks

Hello Again.

The previous comment was playing an historical mission. Playing another historical mission I had another CTD and the same problem: It just was typing F2. In that moment I was into the periscope room.
I wanted to play before begin a new campaign to see the performance of the game with the new TWOS 2.2.20.
However, I have not waited any longer and I have decided to start a new campaign. The result is as follows:
I have saved the game in the bunker and closed the game. Then I reopened the game reading the saved game and started. The operation has been correct but so far I have encountered two problems, I don't know if they will be bugs:
1.- The XO executive officer displays the dialog box but does not let me enter the speed, distance, bearing and AOB data in order to prepare the torpedo fire.
2.- Upon entering Danzig bay, the harbor defenses detected the observation periscope. Destroying it produces another failure. If you accidentally press on the observation periscope, the scroll keys (A, D, W and S) are locked, preventing the player from leaving the observation periscope room, thus blocking the game.
I inform you of all this so that the developers can verify it and check if there is any fault.
Greetings.

Hi Herr Kaleun Suhren
JSGME screenshot?

Are you sure you've installed TWoS according to install instructions? Step 2 and everything?

What was the mission in question?

2.- Upon entering Danzig bay, the harbor defenses detected the observation periscope. Destroying it produces another failure. If you accidentally press on the observation periscope, the scroll keys (A, D, W and S) are locked, preventing the player from leaving the observation periscope room, thus blocking the game.

Why don't you use teleport function then, or Shift+U to unstuck?

1.- The XO executive officer displays the dialog box but does not let me enter the speed, distance, bearing and AOB data in order to prepare the torpedo fire.

These functions work just fine in properly installed TWoS...

I opened up the Mission Editor for the first time and I had multiple "Can't make sense of_____"

I've played numerous hours without a glich or hiccup. Any insights?

Thanks

That's normal. Mission Editor throws these messages at you each time, just hit enter until they run out.
