Default need help, problem since 1.2

okay just installed 1.2 and launched the game, started a new carreer.

my crew will not sleep for more than a moment at a time.
by the end of day one theyre fatigue is about 16/100, by morning its 4/100.
its not possible to even go to periscope depth, battlestations is definatly turned off.
they do occaisionally sleep although it does them no good at all.
now my campaign is unplayable, my men cannot obey a simple order like shooting at a plane, or diving the sub once a day or so has passed.
i cannot make them sleep and even sitting in the sea with the engines disabled has no effect.

has anyone else encountered this error ?
i cant find anything in the readme to explain this.
i dont know if its a bug, or a problem with my install.

the only mod im using effects only crash depth, and the power of depth charges to make them more realistic.

this should effect my crew should it ?

any ideas what i should try now ?

It is possible the crash depth mod. I recommend a clean install of everything. Play the game and then install your mods if all looks good.

any idea why the hull depth would effect my crew not sleeping though. surely theyre not tied together ?

Possible. Crew death associated with AA gun damage. Strange mix of files. Some of the mods will not work with the new patch. usually just texture mods are ok with a new patch.

Make a clean install..report back so other know if they run into this.

will do.
hopefully that will be the cause.
im only running 3 mods, so it can only be one of them.
crush depth
more realistic destroyers/depth charges
and a skin. for the Gato i beleive. i doubt thats to blame.


probably wise to wait untill the game gets its 3rd patch before modding once more i guess.

maybe i will get a different result installing 1.2 over the default install, than installing it over 1.1 + mods

i hope so. i dont want to roll back to 1.1, and it would be awfull not to be able to play the campaign. its the only reason i do play as it is


ok i lied

SH4 Crush Depths
SH4 Realistic Battery Life
Improved_Underwater_Visibility_Stage_1
Depth_Charge_Mod_Stage_1__SH_IV_

those are my mods.

From memory mind you, I am not at my game PC - but don't those numbers reflect LOW fatigue, as in WELL rested ????

ah indeed that may be true.
perhaps the fatigue means 100/100 ( rather tired)
1/100 very aware
i didnt think of it that way


but even if that is the case, my crew are effectivly dead on theyre feet after 1 day.

reinstalling the game at the moment. will let you know if it fixes it. i certainly hope so.
for all its problems this is still a wonderfull game
