Sorry guys for the lack of update. Real life got in the way as always, it will take a while longer for release.
The M4 machine is already implemented in-game. It works as it's supposed to. It still needs a little more fine-tuning; I still need to change all campaign messages to their abbreviated form; add some more messages; write a tutorial on the Kenngruppen procedure and start beta testing on different SH5 installations before release. I'm currently busy in RL and don't have much free time to devote to the mod. As soon as I get back to it I'll make an announcement here and start looking for beta-testers. Here's a short video showing the machine in game. Be sure to watch it in full-screen/HD. It shows the setting up of the inner and outer configuration based on the day's cypher net settings; recovering the message key from the header(in this case it was "LHKF") and decoding the rest of the message. Why would I go to all the trouble of writing this thread, take screenshots, explain the mod, etc if the mod was a "fake" like someone said?? ![]() Just have some patience. |

Are you running the game windowed or full screen? Something tells me you're running it Windowed
![]() There are two reasons why I ask: - to be able to use it to pass messages to it - if there's an API for it Just a little FYI there is a special color for Engima coded messages with my UIs mod. I believe the color is yellow IIRC. |

This is exactly why I need to beta-test it first! ![]() Quote:
It works in both windowed and full screen modes. The simulation was implemented using Python, SH5's menu editor and A LOT of trial and error. There's only one external .dll I created in C# to read the cypher codes,group lists, bigram tables, etc in text files. It works pretty much like any other UI page. The Enigma machine is made up mostly of buttons, hidden buttons and bmp arrays. Quote:
I designed all the UI graphics elements myself in PS based on pictures of the M4 Enigma (that was a lot of work for me, but I was on vacation then ![]() Anyway all Enigma simulations will be graphically similar at some point because they are simulating the same machine. He was also very helpful in helping me understand the Kriegsmarine deciphering procedure that is implemented in this mod. Quote:

I have seen your video about your ingame working Enigma. So I will excuse my words about a fake. THe reason was, that I could not understand, that a man is able to do that. I hope you will accept the excuse the words about the fake rom an old 73yearsold Mariner. ![]() So I whish you all the best for your very interesting work.

Hi Skybaron,
I hope you are well, so I am. Can you tell us the status of your work in process, thanks. Best regards Karl ![]() P.S.: But if its the work to much, I think. Maybe you can built a working Enigma, only without the additional features first. ![]() |
