[REL] Ui-Boat V5.xx

[rascal101]

Very nice Mod - clashes with a few others - but nothing serious as yet - a couple of issues - for some reason since installing this mod my observation scope keeps rising by itself - I lower it then go do something - then I go to outside camera and its up halfway - seems if I do anything any where on the sub using the mousewheel this scope just raises

Also Cant find the dept under keel whihc is a bit of a boar when your crash diving - a very important tool but seems to be missing

Best Regards

Hi

looks great!

I'll check it out immediately.

Could you post your modlist, please?
Might help us to decide which mods go well together and which not.

You'll find those orders under Navigator, there one of 3 for getting time and range to end of plotted course.
Time to end is the time to complete the current plot at current speed.
Range to end is the total distance to the last waypoint.

Sorry this Mod is not compatiable with TDW UI, nearlly all files and scripts are conflicting .

Any chance for an Hi Res version?

This is a HiRes version. Its being built from scratch to achiev max results at 1080P (1920x1080) or (1920x1200).
Any resolutions over this and thing's start to get out of position and shrink below recommended levels.
While thats a higher resolution your playing at, the way stock SH5 is built at 1024x768 and uses scalling to enlarge items for larger resolutions you only end up with blurry graphics at very high resolutions.
I could of went the stock method at the begining of this Mod but took the decission to go the non scalling and sharper graphics method with this Mod.
Thrust me its worth setting SH5 to 1080P levels with this Mod to get the sharpest and best positioning.

also have some minor problems with it, why is the white crosshair visible in 3d free roaming, i thought the majority would hate this nub shooter cross

entering the attack scope will auto rise the OBS scope.

would be nice if windows opened via new officers panel would have the old "X" for closing them.

any chance for adding a german menue.txt ?

Will look into the Obs scope rising issue. Thanks for heads up.
If anyone wants to do a german menu.txt send it in for inclusion.

Will sort out the scope issue . As for Dept under keel, you'll find that under the Navigator orders.

[reaper7]

Ok I've been testing the Obs scope and can't recreate it rising by itself.
Is everyone having this Issue or just some . Maybe the wrong Obs script made it into the packaged mod.
I'll pack up the current Obs script to see if that sorts out the issue just in case thats the problem. Will post here when done.

Awesome! I can't wait to take a look out of em.

Reaper7, I also cannot reproduce the obs scope rising by itself, everything seems fine to me.

I have a feeling that maybe they are making them rise using the commands under the XO Orders.
That or the Mod has been installed over another that may be causing the problem.

Any luck getting permission to update your Interior Mod V1.1
I keep finding new things all the time I look around .

Still no word back, but I am uploading it to mediafire right now for a short term solution.
Yeah, I expect it will literally take a month or more of playing for folks to notice all the changes, that is how detailed I made it.

Is this compatible with TDWs UIs Mod?

Why I'm asking is that I've been using his for a while now, and while your UI Mod is amazing it just seems foreign to me. However, what has intrigued me with this mod, and if I understand correctly, is the clickable TDA.

If I understand correctly do we need to, in this mod, gather data from the scopes and then exit scope and input the data in the TDA in the conning tower?

[reaper7]

No the TDC Panels are Hidden/Shown by use of buttons at the bottom of the screen. You can hide/show them in any order you wish to display.
This Mod re-introduces the SH3/4 style of playing to SH5.

Ahh ok.

What I assumed was that you had to manually input the data on the TDC panel in the Conning Tower

[rascal101]

Try lowering it by hand - then go to the conning tower and use the UZO for a minute or two - if you have the problem when you drop the UZO and look at the Observation scope it should have risen up abot half way


Also I still cant find the dept under keel order via navigator am I missing something

It is on the top right where the old reports button was. You can now get to the old reports screens through the logical corresponding officer.
