STEP BY STEP TUTORIALS & HOW TO DO IT

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=211804


Go to your ‘Main’ ‘Silent Hunter 5 Folder.’ (After the Ubisoft Folder)

Go to the ‘Support Folder.’

Go to the ‘GameUpdater Folder’

Double click to run the ‘Gu’ ‘Application.’

This will update your installation to the current v1.2

This will show in the top right corner of your screen when you load the game.

Hi
Often I have a little flickering in Center of View. Find no reason, why.
Here my specs:
Win 8.1
Intel Core i5 4570
8 gb
NVidia GTX 760 Driver version 9.18.13.2049

Newer driver´s will cause problems.
Does anybody knows what is the best driver for this videocard that will work
with SH 5 ?
Have the Sobermodlist and TDW´s newest exe patch - all works fine so
this is not the reason.
Thank´s for any help.

Hi everyone! I just finished getting all my mods working when i noticed something. Neither my depth gauge, speed gauge or my times compression will change values, being stuck at 00, and the times compression not even showing a number. I also cannot use any dive buttons besides depth under keel, and my patch to add in decks awash has not shown up, because of the frozen layout I would assume. Here is a picture along with my mod list, thank you in advance!

Hi Brycey634

I think your problem is a mod issue?

You need to remove the odd ball mods to test the situation.

Mods that were possibly compatible before no longer are.

Already included in OH II

Expanded Navies by Cybermat47 v.1.0.01

Cause of ctd’s with OHII and 7-4-2

SH5 External Cargo 1.0

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=174511

Not seen anyone using this including Sober

Fix Equipment_Upgrades Date Sober V9

I would take this out for now it may be clashing with OHII

I think this is from OH II v1.6

Looks like i've got a lot of testing to do! I'll let you know how it goes, thank you in advance!
(also, should i be reading the post like this:
Already included in OH II
expanded navies
cause of CTD with OH II and 7-4-2
sh5 exeternal cargo mod
problems reported

which translates to this:
Expaded navies causes CTD and sh5 exeternal cargo has problems reported, but expanded navies is already in OH II, so i should remove it either way?

thanks again!

Hi Bryce

Takes these out, and give it another go.

its a mod issue and you do not have that many mods.

SH5 External Cargo 1.0

SH5Lifeboats_by_Rongel_TDW_stoianm_v2.11

Fix Equipment_Upgrades Date Sober V9

Cerberus62 Historical Ship Equipment 1.4

Expanded navies you do not need this already in OHII confirmed.

The problem I am finding when I am investigating ctd problems etc, mods being used or added are often quite old.

Older mods are often no longer compatible with todays current mods like OHII and TDW's New Ui that have so much stuff already added in them.

I wish i didn't have to get rid of V9, darn
Thank you again!

EDIT: Same saddening results, even with the specific mods removed.. Perhaps I should try removing all mods to do a control test? If that doesn't work, unless you have further solutions, i could try reinstalling and installing my 'core' mods to see if it works, then adding mods until it doesn't work again, and then avoiding this/these mod(s).
What do you think?

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi Brycey

What happens when you just load stock?

What was concerning looking at your Post #1748 was the large number of mods being over written by such a small mod list.

Something to look out for in the future.

It is always worrying if you have a number of independent mods overwriting each other rather than a patch mod which you would expect one to over write the other.

Are you using TDW's Generic File Patcher?

Loading stock fixes the problem, and yes i am using his patcher v.1.0.164.0
guess I should go 1 by 1 then?

EDIT: We have a winner!
TDW New UI 7-4-2
so here's what happens-
i start a new campagin, skip tutorial
game loads, talk to the loadout guy quickly just to check his chat boxes
talk with captain, skip the movie thing, and select British waters
new patrol, NO UI whatsoever
press M to load map
close map, UI is there but none of the dials work and the time compression is blank
( i can also talk with the crew and then close their chat to bring up the officer panel)
-END OF LOG-
I can post screenshots if needed

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi Brycey

I do not think it has told us anything we did not know as I still think it is a mod compatibility issue.

If you kept the same mods and replaced 7-4-2 with 7-5-0 would you get the same result?

Working from your mod list on Post #1753

Take these mods out

SH5 External Cargo 1.0

SH5Lifeboats_by_Rongel_TDW_stoianm_v2.11

Fix Equipment_Upgrades Date Sober V9

Cerberus62 Historical Ship Equipment 1.4

NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_New_radio_messages_German

NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_alt_officer_wounded_by_Torpedo

All sounds included

R.S.D. - Reworked Submarine Damage v5.7 by vdr1981_Main mod


That leaves you these to do a test with

Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_byTheBeast

Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_Patch_1

#Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_Patch_1_HotFix

Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_Patch_1 (available by date) V9 by sober

FX_Update_0_0_22_ByTheDarkWraith

FX_Update_0_0_22_Torpedoes (modified for torpedoes failure patches)

NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_ByTheDarkWraith

IRAI_0_0_41_ByTheDarkWraith

OPEN HORIZONS II v2.5

OH II v2.5 Grid Request fix Patch SH5

What you have left is a group of mods that a lot of us use, so it will be interesting to see the outcome.

As I said before when you look at your Post #1748 it is worrying to see such a lot of over written mods which points to conflicts likely to happen, things not happening, and possible ctd’s.

One last check before you start.

Go to your mods folder and open the 7-4-2 base mod

Can you see the Data Folder + 11 Applications?

Good luck Peter
