Joan, why don’t you download my Update 8 and install on top of all your mod list? (Last after FIFI Compilation)
Once downloaded, open it and pickup the Update 8 mod
Again it should solve your troubles!

I have gone to the graphic screen and although I have deactivated all the tabs the result of the explosions and the fire are still polygonal. Obviously to be a matter of system resources but curiously playing with the mod Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate v0.40 I suppose I also need enough resources, I have no problem. For example, there is a misge mission of sinking Battleship George V that I can play in both mods and while with the OMEGU/MONSUN a blue fog appears all the time on the horizon that blurs the observation of the target, with the FOTRS Ultimate It doesn't happen to me, in fact it is the mod that works best on my computer, with all (almost all) of the Graphic Settings activated. I comment all this in case it serves as an orientation to solve the problem.

Thanks for taking time to answer and whether I can play with this mod
or with any other, I will continue to enjoy SHIV.

Greetings!
Your computer system could probably run 2 copies of OM with Fifi's compilation, and still not be breathing hard. The main problem, if you've still got the same list is what Fifi said earlier:

See end of post #1...
... I have been searching for either one of either Fifi's or Front Runner's posts on their nVidia Inspector settings for the graphics, and cannot find them... Perhaps Fifi can remember where his is... In the meantime, you could browse through Peter THEBERBSTER's SH4 <> TUTORIALS <> HOW TO DO IT <... thread and look through his GPU postings & links...

Edit: I'm too slow for Fifi...

These are the default settings needed for any Silent Hunter game.

Yes, and my graphic card settings are here: https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/sho...70&postcount=1

Lately, i tried to set my sh4.exe compatibility to Vista instead of win7...it is even better! Running smooth as butter

I am also having the same problem as joan, further more the subs hull and most wood panels, the UZO and few other bridge components are completely black in exterior view. I am using the #8 update and have LAA in use

Could you post the exact mod list order please?
The order has to be like in post #1 example.

Have you checked the right path For each of your mods?
When you open each mod, the first folder to come has to be Data...

To have LAA in fully use, have you unchecked the Read Only box of your SH4.exe properties?

If you have black parts, then you are missing some textures files.
This issue is on your side, as all U-Boats have been tested successfully.

- More emblems re-worked by KaleunMarco
- VIIC41 emblems are now showing up
- IIB U24 and U9 emblems are now showing up
- All U-Boats have now the KDB hydrophone working and rotating on deck from 1940/01/01 (except IIC IID from 1941/01/01 and IIB never equiped)
- All water streaming are now totally invisible underwater
- All water particules have been completely re-worked and normalized. Some more added
- Surface the boat button added on order bar
- All countries sides has been revised and corrected according to historical dates. Think twice before hitting the red button...(neutrals or even few friends - so called - can sail in convoys)
- Radio messages has been added for the countries side evolutions along the war.
- New quick identification tab in Help (F1) for all the ships names in letters (KS-M-FM etc) with length/draft/tonnage. Much easier now to find the ship type without clicking for minutes the ID book!
- Type IX A/B/C have now the right torpedoes number (22) and IXD2 now 24 torpedoes. You have to fill up external loads in bunker now for those types.
- Corrected Le Havre and Constanza spelling in nav map
- Smoke, fires, explosions, water splashes, deck gun hits completely re-worked (from KSD) Awesome effects!
- Funnel smoke re-worked
- Emblems colors tuned down
- Nav map tools from KSD
- ... and probably a brand new career available for U-Flak boats by Propbeanie & S7rikeback !!

Update 8 will be released within 2 days

Hi Fifi
Looking good.
I think you mean the new update will be number 9 not 8 as we already have it.


Peter

The game crashes mainly when i am close to a harbor, any harbor.

Seems like a lack of memory...

Have installed LAA linked to your SH4.exe?
Have you set your SH4.exe to NO read only?
Have you set your SH4.exe to VISTA compatibility properties?

What are your PC perf?

It can’t be my mod fault, didn’t changed any harbor setting from stock OM...nor any harbor traffic.

I have set the compatibility mode and it is not read only.



It is 8 Gig of Ram so I have enough ram.


It only happens when I go to any exterior view when close to a harbor.




edit: I just double checked and it was set to read only. I have turned it off and will try again.

I have reapplied the LAA patch and it seems to be working.
