[REL] Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC

[kylania]

If you're going to adjust options use the new application that's included for that:

Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_8_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Appli cations\OptionsFileEditorViewer

TDW's NewUI has buttons in the top right corner which you can use to toggle Travel Mode, TC x1, Pause Game and filter out normal radio messages, radio contact messages, Contact messages from X distance and more! You can see those buttons in this picture.

Kylania, I'm sorry to say but it seems I need some tutorial on this.
I keep getting this dialogue;

[kylania]

Yup, looks like the same "culture specific" error from a few pages ago. Just PM TheDarkWraith and he can send you the fix. He's got a fix for that error, just doesn't look like he's released it publicly yet.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes I have the new icons etc...

But I can't see my boat on the map.
Also I think I found that application and looked into the file but file looks fine.

Please look at the picture

You're using Real Navigation. The point of that mod is that you won't see your sub on the map! With Real Navigation not only is your ship not displayed but you cannot use waypoints like normal. You need to just issue a command to head in a certain direction and keep track of how long you've been traveling to know when to turn again. The new alarm clock feature (left click on the face of the watch) is extremely helpful for that.

You can talk to your Navigator to get an approximate location of your sub at anytime really. I also HIGHLY suggest using Trevally's scripts for RN. That way every 2 hours your navigator will automatically plot your location.

Yes I know it is real navigation but though you can turn that option as per attached image 1 and 2.

Now you said that Real Navigation, I have looked again into mods that I have installed and noticed this as a seperate MOD. Disbaled and job done

Time to sink some tonnage

Thanks

I found the reason of error (why not worked the mod).

This mod contained multiple directory structure, and the JSGME not copied the files to destination locations (SilentHunter5\data dir) !!!
(Another mods by simple directory structure are working.)

The soulution is simple: manual copy of files... and its work...

(I think may be if the mod use the simple directory structure than the JSGME will be work... or was this error only for me?

I serach the reason, and I run the OptionsFileEditorViewr.exe program.
1. Set the menu.txt to c:\Program Files (x86)\GAMES\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_8_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Menu\ menu.txt
2. Open the c:\Program Files (x86)\GAMES\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_8_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scrip ts\Menu\TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py

And I get the error message:

After I try to set the 110 .row the #VALUES= (as 100. row)
the checker program acceptable, but I get the identical error at 114. row.

I have Windows7 x64 SP1.

Thought this might have been a screen resolution thing.....
First time trying new version. Selecting an option does not do anything. Also you will notice the overlap in the bottom left-hand corner.

Have you done any settings/changes in the NewUIs_TDC_6_8_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scripts\Menu \UserOptions.py file?
If so replace it with a default one from your download.

Hi Reallydedpoet

This is a common error - where something is wrong with your :-
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Scripts\Menu\TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py

Try re-placing it with the original one from your downloaded file.

EDIT: At Silent Steel

Hmm, I thought it was:
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_8_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scrip ts\Menu \UserOptions.py
Or?

Yes Silent Steel your path is correct when you make changes to it when the UI mod is un-installed.

The path I posted is for when the UI is installed

Hi Trevally,
But, shouldn't you always disable a mod in JSGME when making any changes to it, e.g. this one?

Yes, that is best practice

[ReallyDedPoet]

Thanks Trevally and Silent Steel, I'll try that

Edit: Seemed to do the trick, just have to re-set some of the options. But the
base file you mentioned worked fine.
