During a patrol outside the Thames, I noticed when attempting a crash dive from airplanes, that the crash dive is REALLY SLOW. Like more than ten seconds of chillin' and doing nothing. Much faster to just order periscope depth, ahead flank and then a new set depth.

Is there something wrong here with my install?

CD delay simulates crew entering submarine and without it sub will CD unrealistically fast... You can tweak this time with Options File Editor/Viewer...

The Options File Editor Viewer default setting in the Crash Dive tab is 25 seconds.

Not sure what to say because just recently I passed Coastal Waters and Happy Times with a single but totally unrelated CTD, even with this old PC of mine...

I only know that the most important things for relatively stable gameplay (this stands for any modlist) are these two :

- Occasional save and complete restart of the game between the actions during long patrols is highly recommended! Always make a gamesave in the bunker and restart the game before you start new patrol.
- Game save with complete restart of the game at the beginning and especially at the end of each patrol (approx. 100-200 Km from home port) is highly recommended. This will improve game stability and further reduce number of random CTD's.

Also , I'm really not sure anymore how to formulate or what to wright in my tips for stable gamepley anymore because, no matter what I wrote , many people will still do "their way" and fail to recognize what SH5 engine actually doesn't like.

So then the problem is that the delay is not simulated for periscope depth manouvres, or other dives?

No...Other commands are OK without delay.

Hi vecko
Quote > - Occasional save and complete restart of the game between the actions during long patrols is highly recommended! Always make a gamesave in the bunker and restart the game before you start new patrol.

Did a manual save 200 km from Kiel (following your instructions)
When you end the patrol (Baltic) you are placed automatically in the bunker.
Used the Esc key and over wrote the Autosave Enter Base (AEB)
Exited the game as I did not have enough time to start the new patrol.
Loaded the game later and used the updated AEB and requested the mission.

I have a problem.
I did all like in the instruction but when I go into the game there are buttons which I can't click.
Also when I open a new game there is a black screen with the GUI.

Does anybody know where is the mistake?

Thank you

Hey Vdr...I found this sound again after a bit of a search because I remember having it in a previous install but couldn't remember where or what sound file it was. It's amb_OceanSkyline_Q.wav from Stormy's DBSM and it sounds great, especially if you start pushing into heavy seas. Might be worth having a listen to..

Default Waypoint question

Hey everybody, "good midsummer". I just have one question regarding the wolves of steel mod. I just installed today, and im already in love with it. I usually like to do most of the stuff manually, but i dont really feel like having real navigation atm, and i saw another guy who had the same wish as me, and he simply just needed to disable "TDW's real navigation" to get waypoints "back". Me myself did this, but nothing happened? I still have real navigation apparantly. Any way to solve this? And also, if i need to restart the career, i havent done that yet, so im sorry if this was a kind of unnescerary post. A matter of fact, im going to try to restart campaing now XD
