Yes, I lost 2 hours of patrolling last night because of 'A' CTD

This bug as reported by MANY other users is causing a CTD when leveling the sub by pressing A or the depth gauge.

I have been in the IT field for over 23 years writing software business applications. Mind you not PC games. The reason that I state this is after I make code changes I will perform a unit test to verify my change resolves the issue and does not create another. Now since I did the development then a different QA person actuallys performs a test.

Based on this it does not really appear that the devs actually performed either test since obviously this is a major function.

I was and still am very impressed with SH4 but I would feel a lot more comfortable if the devs would slow down a little and make sure the quality is their in the product. Afterall that is what brings you new customers as well as your continued customer base.

Apparently the error lies in the commands.cfg file:

"OK, go to my FileFront and download SetKeys. Then, go to Program Files/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter IV Wolves of the Pacifc/Data/Cfg, and find the Commands Cfg file. Copy it to another location and rename it to Commands_en(as in the same file SH3 Uses which SetKeys seems to only recognize), and find Order_Maintain_Depth, and change it to Maintain_Current_Depth. Once you are done, rename it Commands again like the stock SH4 called it."

My apologies if this has already been posted. I just got in from a long day at work today.

IT field or not, just make sure both your Windows and all device drivers are up to date, because not everyone is having it apparently.

eek, just installed mine, went straight for the patch before trying it and a=CTD

hope this fix comes soon

I actually use 'a' now to quit the game for the night.

Waterboy · 03-24-07, 09:58 AM

A = Adios

I think I'm going to have to comment it out. I know there's a problem, yet I still tend to hit it.

DOH!

Way to improvise.

But yea, I can't see how a CTD button could not get fixed soon, really sucks for me if I want to play with the camera. I always seem to instinctivly go for the WASD keys.

Hopefully the Standimeter (just got that one the first time 5 minutes ago), and moving crew around at port CTD's will get patched soon too.

The 1.1 patch fixed the stadimeter for me. Download it if you haven't already.

Yep I got the patch, never happened before to me with or without the patch. I was pretty suprised.
