Game crashing

Frosted · 06-19-14, 11:49 AM

I installed open horizons II, but I got an issue it seems.

I am doing the first mission in Danzig bay where a mine layer is roaming around.
So I go and kill him.
After I kill him I try to open my captain log to see the tonnage but game freezes and I have to ctrl+alt+del out of the game.
I tried with different ship and I get the same bug.

I tried OH II only without any other mods enabled and I get the same problem.

Hiya,

Did you initially start a career without OHII ?

For OHII to work, you have to either do the career start game, dock at kiel, exit, load mods, start new OHII career

Or, on mission option start page type in 'silentotto' and then start a career, then exit and then load mods

Or thirdly, this works but no idea if it effects anything later in the game

Goto sh5 folder (usually in your docs folder) , edit CareerHistory.cfg line to read HasCompletedTutorial=false to HasCompletedTutorial=true , this assumes you already have sh5 installed with the above .cfg in from previous gaming etc

Hope that makes sense

ps : can also be using 3d clouds if gpu isn't up to it, using shadows, too much AA and other graphics settings
C++ 2008 runtime (search here for offending one)
Corrupt OHII download (guy last week had exactly that)

pps : vdr the genius, check this link out http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=210153

Maybe you're killing them before the war actually starts (before midnight)? I think I had similar problem long before...

That's probably it. Because they do appear as blue, but since they had a Poland flag I thought I could just kill them. I will see if it works when I get home.

Thanks for both replies. You guys are awesome.

The problem was that I killed Poland's ship before September 1.

I feel dumb now.
