[ologuy]

Will there be something like the attack disc by OLC?

Find this file at the bottom of the menu folder
TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py
Open it up with Notepad and change the # the current UI Style

From this
# the current UI Style
UIStyle = SH5Enhanced

Too this
# the current UI Style
UIStyle = SH3Style

Then save your changes

Hey presto you will now have the SH3 UI

Maybe it´s even more simple than the exact phrase "SH3Style"
If I remember right simply choose "UIStyle = 1". 0 for SH5Enhanced, 1 for SH3Style and 2 for SH4Style.


Btw thx very much for this outstanding work. And since it works with the AOTD - RDA 1.03 it´s a must have in my activated mods.

I don't have the enumerations setup for the UI Styles. You have to use the names (SH3Style, SH4Style, SH5Enhanced). I just had the number assignments to the names so I could use the names (imported globally).

I'm air cooled (Zalman) and when stress testing it for stability with the IntelBurnTest at Very High settings the CPU never got hotter than 57C (20 iterations of the test). I have to run the processor @ 1.475V for stability. There's more OC room in that processor but I got tired of fiddling with it. A 15% OC was good enough for me currently. Board is an Asus Crosshair III formula.
The 3 raptors in RAID0 are giving max transfers of 298MB/s with an average of 228MB/s all the way through the entire 447GB range of the array (it's like an SSD but with the 7.0ms access time) on a 64K stripe. Burst rate is 233MB/s. I'm quite happy with it
What I'm not happy with is Ubi's activation service Can't get my SH4 Uboat missions or SH5 activated again

Thats strange, I activated the mod...and had the EnhancedSH5 UI. Then I quit the game, disabled the mod.

I changed the UIStyle to 1, reenabled the mod and now I have the SH3Style.

Doesn´t matter, the mainthing is: It works and it´s definitly a must have

Hi
when I try to install this mod I get a weird corruption, I follow the readme, I copy the TDC Dials into the mod folder, then copy mod folder into JSGME, then on starting SH5 this is what I see!!
It is like corrupted text instructions in a white box, in the middle of screen.
Please someone help
Cheers
Axel

You need to patch your game to 1.1

A funny story, unrelated to this post:

So I was at 70m trying to evade some destroyers, and I wanted to raise up to 60m since the ocean floor was close. I held Ctrl with my pinky down while I went to click on 60, but the scale only went to 50! So I moved the mouse down to hit 5X so I could pick 60 when my pinky slipped... since I was mid click it went ahead and accepted my click, right on the EMERGENCY SURFACE button that was where the 5X button was after my finger slipped off CTRL...

That is potentially bad news for everyone. The DRM is bad enough without having problems re-activating with new hardware! Is that what the problem is DW?

It's a variable, and you can't name a variable with "/" because that's the "divide" operator.

Variables can't start with a number either.

Tried the "BackSlah" and got the same result.

Are you saying that if I uninstall SH5 and reinstall it again even on same system. I will not be able to activate it again?

No as long as the major hardware doesnt change.

Ive reinstalled several times and never had to reactivate

[TheDarkWraith]

I couldn't re-activate because I couldn't connect to the Ubi servers. Finally reconnected and re-activated. With my tools all setup on new system I was ready to do some modding work again.
With the limited time I had today (didn't get connected till after 5pm central time) I started rework on the officer's bar. Main goal was to fix the right click bug and to add highlight around selected officer when you select them. I'm happy to say that the right click bug is now history and the selected officer has a highlight around his border:



is red ok for the highlight when selected? I also want to have the officer's highlight their border when you mouse over them...thinking yellow for this color. Anyone? Buehler?
Going to do the same for the order's categories (the small white buttons above the officers in the screenie)

Added 'space' for the officers to account for different situations (wounded, dead, ??) that way when I figure out how to 'read' an officer's health I can make the appropriate picture show for him.
