Hey guys me again with yet another problem.

So I am now playing the atlantic air gap. And I sunk 4000 out of the 50000 requirement

BUT, the progress bar isn't moving. Yes I have a legit copy of the game, purchased it like the rest of us, I couldn't have completed the total germany campaign.

I am sinking the ships well inside the mission area and both ships were sigle freighters - British

Anyone got any tips.

And thank you very much Trevally for the awesome post with the start and end dates of missions

This is the Gap setup in HappyTimes

As you can see - the kill zone by map is the large red circle.
The route for Halifax Liverpool is marked with the red line (any ship from or to liverpool halifax will count)

But, note the target type. Coastal (rare carge type 108) will not count.
4,000t sounds like it was two of those.
You need to attack larger targets

[Maki4444]

Man you're kidding me!!! :O :O
OMG!!! Yeah yeah you are right, I sunk well the first one was Frachter 1900t and the other one was a 2100t one so these little guys don't count well it's quite clever actually now that I think about it.

Jeeez, I waisted 4 torpedos and a few hours because one of the bastards changed course on me.....ahhh well once again thank you Trevally.

Man this was interesting

[Maki4444]

Well yet another update, I guess this just isn't working for me. The mtns isn't working. Now that I have sunk some ships I go back to Lorient try another patrol but it crashes again damn it.......hmmm Is anyone else suffering from this??

Edit - Opened my mouth too soon I'm affraid, well you need a "light mod list" to start a new patrol, and the heavy list when you are out of port :P

So from my mod list which I posted a bit earlier I just deactivated the last 9 mods. I started the new patrol by talking to the Admiral and after the game loaded with my sub in port and me on the bridge I saved, exited the game, reactivated the mods, started the game again and voila it works.

Man there is sooo much to learn about this game but the thing is it pays off sooo much, if you like ww2 subs it's just a heartbreak to abandon this title. It's the best around and with a little more modding from this epic comunity we'll get there where we can be truly content with one heck of a simulator.

Hahahha, I second that. A few days ago I was browsing the IL2 Cliffs of Dover forum and it is just pages and pages of complaining :/

Hi Maki,

There is a new way to give your system a slack (by Uekel). Have a look at this;

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...&postcount=444

It could be a solution for you.

The load order for this 'light' version should be;

Open Horizons II full v1.6
mtns - more traffic, nations and ships 1_8b
mtns - OHII&HarbourAdditon_Fix_1_6b
mtns - OHII&HarbourAdditon_Fix - disable Harbour Addition - Light Version. Here; http://www.mediafire.com/?unyn9af74du44wg

They can't. Yet.
But, I'm confident someone of our fabulous modders can find some gear in the store. (?)

Hey guys!

I know it's not my thread, but there is a new mtns version. For this I have mainly, for nearly all textures (also from the 'old' models) the memory requirements optimized. Perhaps it helps, that that this configuration run smoother for you. If you want try, you´ll find it as usual here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=3222.

There is a link to the also reupped "OHII&HarbourAdditon_Fix" as well.
