Thanks for the flag Peabody, it disappears when you look at it from underwater but is still there when looked at from above :

Keltos,
There was a post (I think by Mikhayl, just trying to give credit where credit is due, If it wasn't you I apologize to you and the one that actually made the observation)stating it was a 'bug' from SH3, because SH3 water wasn't transparent, the flag doesn't actually disappear until the camera is underwater too. Just going from memory...and that's not so good sometimes, but I think that is the reason.

It's good enough for me in any case, love the moving flag ! and at least now you don't see it underwater, that's cool !

[cgjimeneza]

any ideas of a beta date???

[keltos01]

I'd say it's a matter of weeks ? Peabody ??? we're still testing parts, Sledgehammer427 is doing a new Jyunsen B skin.

Enjoy ! As the japanese operated in the IO from Penang in 43 it's still alright to play the german campaign, for now...

Wait for Peabody's IJN Campaign, that'll be something else entirely

Can't give an answer right now. Seems every time I turn a corner I run into a brick wall.
Right now I am getting Random CTDs that I haven't figured out. They happen when exiting the 'Promotion' and 'Aces' screens and returning to the Captains Room. They don't happen every time, only randomly so it's difficult to find the problem. I would be happier if it happened every time, at least I would know where to look for the problem.

I can look at the 'Aces' board 4 times and exit, no problem, then I look at it the fifth time and CTD. Reload and I may look at it once and exit, CTD. Same with the 'Promotion' screen. No CTD looking at the screens only on exiting them. But there isn't any pattern to it, where I may be able to determine the cause.

Also I don't get any CTD in the Captain's Room as long as I dont' go to those two selections, so why am I getting a CTD returning from two unrelated screens to the Captain's Room? May take a while to figure this one out.

I don't want to be obvious, but... strip out your changes. There's certain things you've changed, so remove them and see what happens. I know from doing very high res skins that you can load a quick mission multiple times, until one time, the game just doesn't load the skin and the sub is completely black. I put it down to memory allocation problems, as there was no other reason to suddenly not load a texture that I could see - after all it was still there.

A couple of things spring to mind, one is your map that you changed, if that is too large, it may go belly up... try replacing the captain room .dat file with stock and seeing if you still get the crashes. The other thing that loads on going to the captain room is the medals. Try stripping out the medal changes you did for the Japanese meadals and see if you still get the crashes.

There's nothing else I can thing off that you have changed that loads in the captain room. Good luck with it.
