Very specific CTD

Are you saying this only happens with the VIIc/42?

If not, it's probably a spawn thing as you say... I'll try a testrun of this later tonight, do you bychance have a screenie of the course you take out of Trondheim for accuracy's sake?

bigboywooly · 01-10-08, 01:39 PM

Aye
Have you tried with any other boat ?
And a screenie would be nice

Whats the error too ?
sim.act
sh3.exe etc

Well, the VIIC/42 was the only one I've tried. I've no idea if the same happens with the other choices (VIIB, VIIC or VIIC/41). I'm afraid I wasn't in a 'debugging-mode' at the time. ::wry grin:: And after six consecutive "start game--load career--get my keester bombed just leaving port--CTD just when entering the Atlantic" when all I was looking forward to was a bit of relaxing play, well . . .

I'd deleted the career and started afresh with a VIIC in July 44. So I don't know whether it happens with other boats. As to screenies, as the career is deleted I can't precisely reconstruct/duplicate, but I did my best with this:

Each time, after making that final course change, shortly thereafter I'd CTD.

BBW, I'm afraid I don't remember, and as I've deleted the career . . . ::mutters::

That screenie helps allright

If BBW hasn't figured it out before I wake up tomorrow (it's almost 5am here

) from looking at the campaign files I'll take a different boat for a spin out of Trondheim and see what happens...

as to the bombers, yeah I noticed those before...grumble grumble, at least you have some room to maneuver in the Trondheimfjord, imagine doing the same thing in Lorient

Same here shortly.

AvH, did you get to hear the cool air raid sirens?

(I can't believe no one has commented on those yet.)

KeptinCranky · 01-11-08, 03:46 AM

Heheh, Kapt. when those sirens go off, we're usually a bit busy to notice, what with nasty planeses dropping their eggs and machinegunning everything in sight and whatnot

:rotfl:

Sorry for double post. Couldn't reproduce your CTD, only spawns I saw in that area were a bunch of small german ships.

conceivably it could be something with one of those but have never seen it before.
Kpt. L and BBW are on it too, if we find anything after all we'll let you know
