This is completely new to me, I've never heard anyone mention issues with crossfire? I use two 5770s (have to since pushing the particle sliders up), and I get the same amount of CTDs as I do when I used to run it on a single card.

Is there a link to confirmation of this?

I think the OHII 1.5 has new additions and everything which is great, but I can't even uyse tim compression returning to port now. Idk maybe its my CPU, my system is very old and I'm bottle necking with a vid card 9800 gt by nvidia. My CPU is a P-D 2.00ghz so maybe thats why it crashes. Im thinking of getting rid of OHII and just doing stock campaign or some other campaign that doesn't cause so many CTD's and allows me to use high time compression. Btw I'm using the 1.5 base, and only mods I installed at sea were the IRAI upgrade .31 and a couple sound mods.

Hmm indeed, ok. Initially thought maybe just an Nvidiea issue but seems to affect crossfire users too.

Odd that, I have no more CTDs with both ATI cards enabled than I do with one, sometimes less. I started using two cards to max out the particle slider and maintain my fps only a month or so back. Maybe a new ATI driver has eased the problem and Nvidia haven't caught up yet..

You could try OHII light - it is the stock game with new objectives. Nothing added that will lift game requirments above stock

When I finally got SLI working - I tested in historic missions and everything was great - cards running a lot cooler - shared use

Then when i returned to my campaign - I got ctd when planes attacked me just outside one of the med harbours.
At first I thought I had messed something up in the campaign files as i had been editing them.
I stripped out the changes and still did not work. I was pulling my hair out when I thought "SLI".
I removed it and no more ctds

Very strange, especially as I'm fairly sure it's been aircraft causing CTDs for me, too - when it happens. Most noticeable in later campaigns (which I'm only now reaching) where air attacks on German freighters around the Lorient/etc area occur.

But, it's happened with & without xfire. Can't imagine why planes would cause it, of all things though. Another SH5 mystery!

I have OH2 1.5 installed .
Validator gives me these errrors .
Just started playing happy times . Dropped the spy off and no ctds so far .

Ok, but I have a new problem. I completed the objectives and my progress bar is full but appearntly there were others I needed to complete that come with the mod? When i end patrol it said I had 5 other objectives I never saw or could chose when I requested mission on the briefing. Is there a way to see the other objectives because I only have costal waters, with the patrol 70k tons, then sink Capital which I completed both and returning to port puts me at same mission

Hi Sober,

Those are unfinished files from the stock game and will not cause any issues. You can add to your ignor list.

I think the last one is from MO It is also ok as will will have the soan info only (from TDWs UI)

I had the same problem with my UIs thread once it crossed a certain number of pages or posts. PM Neal and he will take care of it
