So I cannot decode the message with Enigma...
pls help!

Thx


1. The massages date:
It's a feature, this is the date of message creation, use the date in message to decode

2. To set your uboat number and even your kaleun name use OFEV
You'll find it in data/applications as options file editor viewer and you can find the options at tab ship journal

Thanks for your fast answer!

In the message appears correct "To U-28", but the numbers are the same (0455/20/06/40)... What to do?

Default Ship Recognition Manual

Salutations everyone,


I'm playing SH5 with WOS mod. Loving it. Playing on full realism real navigation etc.


I am having a bit of trouble with ship recognition.
The manual has a filter function where you can set for example "1 stack" or "2 stack" chimneys. Or you can select what type of bow the ship has etc. To help you figure out what ship you are dealing with.



There are however 2 other filter functions that never work for me. And that is the superstructures on the ship if they are split or in the middle of the ship etc. When I select that filter it does not show any ships. I know this is not correct as I can cheat and see what ships they are. Those filters don;t seem to be working properly.

Anyone know what I'm on about? And do they experience this aswell?
Can it be fixed? Thank you for any info.

Greetings,
Xurf

Your keyboard uses a different key to Un-pause the game than the one the game says it should be?

I apologise in advance if this problem was reported before and may be fixed even, but this forum is so massive, so if it was: please just point me in the right direction.

I seem to have a problem with my stopwatch not working. To be exact it does not start when i click on it. Instead it just switches from normal stopwatch to "attack stopwatch" (The one with all the lines and numbers on it). I sometimes have to click 10-15 times until it starts/stops again. Switching modes back and forth again during this time. Needles to say, measuring time is impossible like this. Anyone else having this problem? Or is there something i am doing wrong?

Playing with TWOS and the following additional mods:
remove sub flags
campaign advance verifier
encrypted bdu orders
neutrals illuminated only

i also changed the ui to SH3 at some point but the problem was there before.

Hi CP
Left click to start and stop it.
Right click to change from stopwatch to U-jagd.

Then there is clearly something wrong. Right click does nothing for me and left click makes the stopwatch go crazy as mentioned above. Your reply actually gave me an idea on were to look tho. I use a left handed mouse which has the buttons switched by default. I did switch them back to normal but maybe the game does not like that. I will try it out. Thank you!

Hi CP
Switching your mouse buttons from right to left should not make any difference as your making a command from the mouse click.

Default Shadow DDS

Hello All,

I'm experiencing and issue with one specific destroyer that seems to shadow my every move. I've dismissed it just following/observing as the mimicry of my every move is too exact. It hasn't detected me so there's no reason for it to behave the way it does. I've recorded my issue to show the problem.

I'm using TWOS Mod and disabled real nav and allowed for the map updates.





I've heard imitation is the highest form of flattery, but this is a bit ridiculous.

Thank you for your assistance, cheers!

Default Snorkel questions /bug?

Hi, I am using the VIIB U-boat and when I press the snorkel button it says "snorkel not available", yet the logo changes to yellow as I would use it.
Also when I am at snorkel depth and chose the snorkel I can then charge the battery.

But I thought then snorkel was for using diesel engines under water? At least what I read about U-Boats from WW2.

I am using the TWOS 2.2.11 mod.

Can someone please explain what is going on here?
