lol i support this mod. is it ready not yet people dont realize the history of this mod and how full release of the game brok it. Link is an amazing modder, but he is up agaainst some stacked odds. its amazing enough hes been able to get it so we can load in and we can HELP with the bug fixxing. ya complaaining about a free mod a dudes but many many unpaid hours in just to get it to where it is, could be more constructive

Templar Jon is a great example of a "begging chooser." A guy who downloads a free mod that's clearly in development, yet complains about it as though it were neither. STFU jon
Primus Pilus 7 Jul @ 5:57pm 
anyone having the issue of there being no items in the store at the beginning of a campaign? literally nothing populates to buy; food, torpedoes, ammo, etc

@ Templar Jon.. THATS's a way to promote people working to make nice things that you. That cost nothing! Way to be a man of God.

Хороший мод,но стабильность ужасная увы.

Good mod, but the stability is terrible, unfortunately.

If you guys are having the infinite loading issue, what worked for me is what the owner of the mod said to do. Switch your UBout emblem to a vanilla one that is not used by the mod itself but rather by the main game, and to save using your OWN save, not using any of the saves that the game does automatically. Yes it inst the easiest or the most convenient but it works for me

got this loaded after all other mods but it has stopped working
Buell 17 Jun @ 11:43am 
Agreed, I wish the devs would be more in contact with this great Modding community. The base game is severely lacking on these opportunities to flesh out the game. I'll wait... seems like I'm always waiting for this game to be ready.
web31 17 Jun @ 4:21am 
To many bugs. I tried to work with it but I got tired of having to restart my career over and over again because of things going wrong. I do hope things get fixed as uboat expanded does add a great deal to the game.
Xenox 16 Jun @ 4:21pm 
I just saw a minesweeper swiming in circles arround me, 70km/h. I don't think this mod is playable
Overlord 15 Jun @ 10:00pm 
@DaddyJaeger I don’t really know, but it’s working fine for me
Heiney 15 Jun @ 4:44pm 
+1, game just doesn't load after you try to start a new game. You do all the settings, press start. Then infinite blackscreen.
DaddyJaeger 14 Jun @ 3:46pm 
@Overlord you sure about that? Because I tried to start the game and it just locked up and never loaded, turned the mods off and it's fine.
SkooKum 14 Jun @ 8:02am 
i tried to launch a new start and the got to the loading screen where it says it may take a few minutes for the game to start, well 4 hours later and she was still spinning lol
Overlord 9 Jun @ 10:46am 
@Bogan Yes, it still works
try reading the previous comments
Bogan 9 Jun @ 8:11am 
it says some of the mods in this bundle are "outdated" does that matter or do they still work?
mason0027 8 Jun @ 6:42pm 
I want to keep everything else about it except that basically
mason0027 8 Jun @ 6:42pm 
How to I change time compression back to vanilla? I downloaded UBE, and now my x15,000 is only x2,046
Yo Gabba Gabba! 3 Jun @ 3:53pm 
So glad you made it compatible... just in time for however much they break mods when the type IX comes out.
WieJasper! 2 Jun @ 9:25am 
Clean install on a new pc with no other mods,
i dont get any missions to select what am i doing wrong?
officermuffin 1 Jun @ 7:37pm 
@link To answer your question, for me the latest patch did not fix the endless load after first save issue. The workaround regarding immediately changing from the (blank) U32 emblem to Dwarves still works. I did not clear cache, data sheets, after UBE's latest patch.
grenso 1 Jun @ 7:03am 
In which file can I reduce food consumption and set it back to default?
Dr. Axel Stoll 1 Jun @ 1:43am 
still the same problem, no missions to choose
link  [author] 31 May @ 8:45pm 
let me know if this patch fixes the save file issue.
Errors 30 May @ 11:23am 
I found that boats could not move after starting a campaign with this on. f.ex 3 destroyers sitting completely still and turning around wildly on the spot and unable to react to the player.
Nebelwerfer 5000 30 May @ 7:35am 
Keep up the work. Your mod has some really really great tendencies. But it seems a little too buggy for serious RPG. The ship bundle isn't really well modeled, which isn't your fault.
But I had some nasty bugs regarding the UBE campaign. Didn't manage to find as close as many vessels like in the vanilla game. Additionally I had a convoy parking in the middle of the atlantic and all ships started spinning on the spot as I shot the first one.
But I'm looking ahead for Bug-fixes. I like the Skill system and historic radio messages!
Mercuque 29 May @ 3:07pm 
HH-52 - u were correct. Thanks for the tip. It worked from making a new game like you said and then loading my previous game from there so I suspect the issue has some conflict to do with the main menu.
Buell 29 May @ 8:18am 
@link hopefully you're "the known Modder" the Devs will be working with in the future to flesh out this game. I've been waiting for this game to be finally playable. 🙌
HH-52 29 May @ 12:24am 
For the infinite loading a saved game problem I found that in a previous mod setup (without UBE) it worked to start a new campaign and then load the saved game from within the new game rather than getting stuck trying to load it from the start screen.
Milano 27 May @ 9:59pm 
To add to what Mercuque said, without this mod the game feels blah.
Mercuque 27 May @ 11:26am 
I hope the workaround works, this mod is the best I've seen made for a game to make it so realistic. I have the same issue can save and load fine but if I shut down- will not load a save and I did not change the con tower badge and it happens for me too. Best of luck on fixing this :)
link  [author] 26 May @ 8:13pm 
I think i figured out the issue with the save files when starting a campaign

there are two temporary workarounds

- ensure after starting a new game , to swap in a vanilla uboat conning tower badge. do not save the game with a UBE provided one
- a worse/risker workaround - delete a single bundle from the mod called uboat-expanded-shared

I dont know (kinda doubt) this will fix broken saves, but this should keep a save from being broken if the steps are performed before saving.

working on an offical fix or outright removal of the feature.
YellowWaff 26 May @ 5:55am 
@Buell already done that after I posted, thanks anyways
YellowWaff 25 May @ 8:22pm 
Also finding a save error too. I have narrowed it down from all my mods to just this mod and it's dependencies. When only using this mod and dependencies I'm finding that I can start a career, play and save as normal. Loading any save in game works fine so long as I don't close the game entirely. Once the game is fully closed and reopens, it will not load any saves and gets in a loading screen loop. Hoping the developer of this mod can fix this soon. If the developer is reading this I'm willing to provide any data necessary from my game's output log if needed
gregweg 25 May @ 6:15am 
@wodtke.t3000 Had the same bug/error. Not loadnig my las save.
北海幼稚园园长 25 May @ 4:35am 
为什么我的油箱加不了油?
𝓐𝓷𝓰𝓮𝓵 24 May @ 9:51pm 
@wodtke.t3000 this just happened to me today. I came here looking for answers too.
wodtke.t3000 24 May @ 3:23am 
i dont know if it is because of ube or not but since i downloaded ube, i cant load into my save after some time (its just getting stuck in the loading screen), is there any way i need to order alle the mods that exist in ube?
𝓐𝓷𝓰𝓮𝓵 23 May @ 9:17pm 
The English setting is not working since setting this up.
BABYGUARD 20 May @ 3:38pm 
虽然很感激提供了中文机翻,但翻的太烂了完全没法看
Steff 19 May @ 10:18am 
ok, i am deleted two other mods from workshop, low graphics and work.
Tyso3 19 May @ 4:38am 
Still getting damage to self when firing the deck gun
Steff 18 May @ 9:14pm 
Hi, have you encountered a problem?

My saves don't want to load. After many minutes don't reactions... There is no information about error and list problem. I have several mods, UBE at end list.
Buell 18 May @ 12:58pm 
I'm only running a few other mods as well, notice UZO isn't selectable. Radio isn't really putting out much either.
Mr.Woof 18 May @ 9:27am 
Another thing:
you really have to let someone check the German texts for the radio messages. Most of them are hard to understand and some of them make no sense whatsoever.

In addition there are messages that are correct German, but are false otherwise. For example there's a message that says that a new country "South America" has joined the war. Since South America is not a a country I would suggest there's some change needed as well :-)

The messages from the BBC and other English sources might also probably make more sense if they were kept in their original language anyway. A real uboat Commander wouldn't have had the luxury or receiving them in German either.

Also there certainly was no "Breaking News" in Britain in 1940. That's a modern term.
The BBC usually started their broadcasts with "This is London" and their whole way of broadcasting was highly conservative.


And last not least:
I'm still in September 1939 and I am getting missions to support the Invasion of France.
