Hi CaptBones,

Nothing to fear with your sub being submerged in bunker. We all see that

Techniciens and engineers are working on few leaks and testing repairs

To do some practice before starting patrols, you could launch some single mission instead of tutorial?
Furthermore in single mission parts, there are some torpedo practice etc

Hey all. My UZO all of a sudden has a square view. I am not sure if I changed any settings. It happened in eastern coastal watters during a massive convoy battle. (ctd happened) before I got several white parts in the screen (radio coding icon, battle stations icon, UZO became white square too. When I loaded a savegame the UZO gave image but remained square. I would like the binocular view back but how?...

I suspect my Nvidia and memory had problems. So now will try running it with msi afterburner.

JGME :

UZO problem :

Now I have never before encountered this problem.

Good to know the boat is being repaired and tested before we leave for patrol.

I will try the single missions for practice.

I must ad that I will be going shortly to make a contribution to vdr1981 to support his wonderful work. Having done the real thing many times, I have found it positively "enchanting" to again be able to conn my ship out of port, clear the sea buoys and set course for my Patrol Area...

I'm not surprised...

Your modlist is a mess mate. TDW NewUI 7.4.2. ??

TWoS is based on far newer version of this mod. Line number 8 for you (from the first post)...

Assuming you are playing TWOS, why do you have NewUIs 7.4.2 activated??

It’s already included in TWOS, but newer version!

Deactivate this old NewUIs version, and i think you will get out of trouble

You should not activate others mods than TWOS one...or be 100% sure of compatibility

ÉDIT: sorry, Vecko beat me to it !

Ashikaga · 10-06-18, 12:58 PM

You are right. Cleaning the system up as we speak and doing a new clean install of the game and 2.2.7.

I wanted the old (UI) with the historic accurate telegraph, depth meter and compass/rudder function.

Probably installed too many old mods and stuff together with newer stuff.

Thank you very, very much Sir! Happy hunting!

I reinstalled everything as per the manual.

But when I click on the game I do not get the TWOS begin screen but the normal game. So my quick question is : where is the TWOS Game icon/shortcut located ? It used to be in the folder.
Installed the SH5 2.2.7 Full package in the right directory and OFEV worked too as it should.

What do you mean by "TWoS game icon" ?

If you have extracted TWoS files at the correct location (main SH5 install directory) there is no way that can still have vanilla loading screen because the files have been replaced...

Ashikaga · 10-06-18, 03:20 PM

You are absolutely right. I messed up with the installing.

(about that TWOS icon, I changed the shortcut name so that is why I thought it was an icon inside the mod. Did that years ago though so was so very used to it that I forgot hahaha).

I just hate reinstalling mods. Especially since I was in the middle of attacking this when my problems started (which made me quite cross I might add) :

Oh by the way, I have New UI installed because........................................... ..................................↑ ↑ ↑.

I want Historically correct dials. Not that modern mumbo jumbo

And I do not think there is another mod with those historic dials is there ? (which might not cause UZO problems).

Gluck ab !

I installed Silent Hunter 5 Gold Edition via Uplay. Afterwards i startet the game once and then installed the Wolves of Steel MOD. I did it step by step like in the install instructions. Everything went fine and i get no errors. But now when i start a game i have some message windows in front. There is no chance to close them. And ingame i have a big black quarter in the left front. What can i do to fix this? Thanks for your help.

I run WIN 10 on a up to date Notebook

Install location?
Optional mods? (screenshot)
DO you have full administration rights over your game and install location?

linuswue · 10-07-18, 06:24 AM

Install location was chosen by uplay
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Silent Hunter 5

No optional Mods an i have Admin rights

Edit: I uninstall SH5 remove the WOS files and reinstalled everything. No it works. Thanks for your help.

Simple as that...

Had to disable the interior food stocks mod.

My camera got stuck in the strangest places making the game unplayable.

Now everything works properly again (for now).

Mod List :

Thanks Vecko and the Berbster and others for your advice.
