Help, weird stuff happening!

Hans-Ulrich Rudel · 03-16-07, 09:59 PM

Can someone please help, when I finish a mission and go to the room with all the desks I note that I cannot access two of the desks, the first one being the comanders desk and the second being the place wher you can buy subs etc with renoun points. Also when this happens I try go on a mission and the orders come up with a blank page on page 2, on page 1 I note that the location for the mission says NULL. I have tried to reset the null on the Janes commander, as I see a null there too! resetting here say "AM 42" has no effect. As can be seen this is a real pain as the game can no longer be played on carreer mode. If I try and input a new carreer it works fine, well for a least 15 to 20 missions and then the same thing happens all over again. This is driving me nuts as it does not happen untill I am well into a career. I have twice done a full re-install. Oh somtimes I can access the comanders desk, but then the phone will not work or the papers to access the crew updates, the only way I can see the crew is by the filing cabinet. Weird eh! anyone else have this problem. Thanks, i need help on this one.

Hi and welcome.
Not being able to access certain rooms usually occurs when you ESC after docking at a fuelling ship. When you continue, you get NULL instead of a grid.
The screenshots are in your Silent Hunter III folder [as a BMP or Jpeg Image].

I think this also happens if you dock in a harbour which is not your home base. When you finish the patrol with pressing Esc and then dock at [some harbour], make sure it the base of your flotilla.
