I do , A LOT , just now i realized every time I sank a particular ship the game crashed to desktop.

Also another annoying bug . each time I save the game at periscope depth when I load I start on the bridge but underwater even able to walk around or go to deck gun while submerged.

anyone knows a workaround?

Hi Ivan

It is not recommended to make saves submerged.

You are already experiencing some of the problems when you do this.

When the game loads it wants to load so you are at the bridge station.

You should then go below using the ladder.

Then teleport to your chosen station.

Hi guys

Ctd's to the desktop can happen to anybody at any time although there is always a reason for this even if you cannot pin it down.

Without any further game information of your circumstances I cannot give answers.

Hey new here. Just wondering was there ever a fix for the tonnage bar on the first missions not filling up? I bought the game on steam, and no mods downloaded yet. Just wondering.

[THEBERBSTER]

The tonnage bar problem does not affect everyone so you may be lucky.

This thread will keep you in touch if you need it.

Hi guys, I've been playing SH5 with the Wolves of Steel expansion, and I find that I'm fighting against bugs more than destroyers and battleships.

The most recent one is with the hydrophone. I reached the second mission, on the east british coast. Whenever I dive to search for contacts, the hydrophone guy normally reports a contact or two and sometimes even tells me the bearing when I immediately tell him to follow the nearest one, but in a few moments he loses all contacts and can't hear anything else.

I then try to dive deeper, all the way to 40 m, but he never establishes contact again, only if I surface the boat and dive again and so on. I know it's not due to range, because I tried it with ships that were in my visual range, exact same situation and loss of contact.

I enabled all hydrophone-related patches with the TDW patcher, but to no avail. Everything worked fine on the first mission in the Baltic Sea. Does anyone else have this problem?

I'm running the SH5 game that I bought on STEAM

after applying patches

and working my way through the connection problem (proxy setting disabled)

and the game playing the intro movie but not the game (Rightclick SH5.exe in the Steam Gamefolder of Silent Hunter 5 then choose Compatibilty Tab then set the X on "Disable scaling on High DPI)

then toggling Large Address Aware.exe back and forth a few times (I now understand that it's NOT necessary for SH5)

Finally, I've now gotten the mods I like installed and the game seems to be functioning reasonably well.

I still have an outstanding problem. The Recognition manual that I'm using has a number of filters but when I click on any of the choices under any of the filters ALL the ships go away. Not sure what that's about. Is that a bug in the mod, am I using it wrong? Can anybody fill me in?

I WAS using Real Environments Revision 3 but I'm guessing that it might have been causing my game to lock up.
(SO tightly that CTRL ALT DEL and a restart were my only options) - Still experimenting on that front.

Hi HIO

I think if you update to TDW NewUI 7-4-2 I think you will resolve your problem.

Check out my Tutorial Post #38 for download links etc.

Check out Tutorial Post #25 for 7-4-2

OHII should go behind TDW’s NewUI not in front of it.

You can replace Real Environments with Dynamic Environmens v2.9
