Exclamation SH5 Campaign Transfer Testing -All hands here!

I need few test results from TWoS captains or anyone with extended OHII campaign on board.

I wont give up until I get at least 15 reports, punishment for disobedience will be swift!

Testing

I've created small patch which will allow you to start Coastal Waters campaign day and a half before campaign chapter ending date (01/06/40). Download CW_Campaign Transfer Testing 2

Your task is to enable the patch with your JSGME, start new (Coastal Waters) campaign and roam the ocean until campaign transfer screen pop-up. Ideally, this will happen exactly on midnight between 31st may and 1st june, but it was observed earlier that successful campaign transfer can be triggered also several days later. In any case, any transfer triggered before next campaign chapter starting date (in this case 15th june, the Happy Times) is a WIN.


Note that this testing patch wont interfere with your curent campaign play trough by no means...



Waiting eagerly for your reports which should contain answers on following quiestions :

- SH5 version? (uplay download version, DVD, Steam...some "other" internet version?)
- Has campaign transfer been initiated? If yes, when (date)? If not, the date when you exit the mission?
- Your operating system (Win 7, 8, 10 ? XP? :P)
- Does your user account has administration rights?
- DbgView log?
- How do you launch your SH5? (Using Ubisoft Game Launcher, SH5.exe directly, KSDCommander ?)

- If you can't get campaign transfer screen...Campaign transfer with Mama's Osi.exe priority tweak?

To clarify for people, when downloading the zip from Vecko extract it into \Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS , then run JSGME to install it over the top of TWOS.

BTW Vecko it would be interesting to see if setting low priority makes the issue repro more often. The file I sent you doesn't support that but it's something I could add in if we wanted.

Hi Vecko
Ran first test to June 15th without success.
My system is using MaMa's Advanced Network change.
From "Use system proxy settings."
To "Auto Detect"

BUmmer...

Now please, do the same test but with this fix on board. You'll find very simple instructions in it... http://www.mediafire.com/file/osoz61...ubsim_osi2.zip
This also applies to everyone else who read this thread...

Another suggestion is to forget the continuous campaign . I use silentotto to choose another campaign when finished the current one . I think a fresh crew is more realistic . I have increased crew points for sinking ships so you can rapidly increase crew abilities . Just a thought .

This is not acceptable option in my opinion...Do the test please if you have few spare minutes...

Thank you Peter...

But, to be honest, I must say that I'm quite dissapointed . The thread is here for entire day and only one user has replied ...

Nevermind, I also have smartest things to do... My game works as it should after all...

That 25k file needs to be called osi.exe instead of just osi

This means the osi_ubisoft.exe isn't starting for some reason. Might be happening if you're not administrator... with that possibility you could try opening the subsim.args file with notepad and change the REALTIME line to HIGH

If that doesn't work I'm out of ideas so would recommend putting things back the way they were, while I'm still looking at the main issue in the background.

Hi Vecko!

1 - Yes, Coastal Waters ended June 2, 1940, then transferred to the bunker of Wilhelmshaven. No mission to choose at the date June 15, 1940, but I got closer to the West of England coast and the ports of Brest, Lorient and other ports of Bay of Biscay on the map were occupied by the Germans.

2 - Win 7 64 Professional

3 - No administration rights

4 - No Old Coder's fix on board

5 - 2. The Wolves of Steel 1.06 - Update 04h

Sorry for my terrible english language..
