Does anyone know how to change the nationality of ships being viewed in the museum?

It seams all i can view is US ships and planes.
I want to view the german uboats.

The manual isnt any use. I even tried pressing all the keys on my keyboard.
until i hit the windows key. And then when i tried to get back to game its all black. had to ctrl alt delete and end SH5 with task manager.

Put your mouse curson at the top of the sceen where the ship type selector is and you will see that the selector tab drop down, where you can then select the nationality.

Woot ! Didn't know that ! Thanks

That's the sort of things I like in SH 5, you want something ? ... You have to find it by yourself.
Reminds me thoses "secret hidden objects" games ...

Would never have found it without you. Thanks

They go in the main SH5 folder, and are .bmp files. they will all be grouped together and date & time stamped

Hmmm so it's not availble any other way than when a ship is locked?
Shucks, I'd like to have a look though it before encountering the enemy.

Unfortuently NO.

I like the filter system for the req manual in SH5. ( 2 smoke stacks, 1 main compartment etc.).
Dont like the lack of info tho (mast hight??, ship max speed?? average tonnage???).
I prefered the req manual in SH3.
Combine the SH5 filter with the req manual in SH3 = Win (for me anyway).

When I'm going on a plotted course and I hit a contact, or realize my water's too shallow, I either have to go back to the map and change the way point...or do rudder adjustments, then go back to the map, delete my entire course, and plot it again. Is there any button of "return to course" like in SH4? This is gettin to be a real hassle...

Not without a mod.

If you don't want to mod your game there is a way to return to course.
Go to the nav map and move to your last plotted waypoint.
Click on this waypoint, and add a further new waypoint to the end of it.
Your boat will now return to your plotted course.

That happened to me and I started firing on my own ships

I just clicked one of the "F" buttons to "man the gun" and they stopped.

Hope that makes sense

Yeah, this is why I dont plot to far ahead. That way I never have to go far to do this, and besides I've found in the past with SH it's better not to plot all that far anyway, just usually have to ditch it to go after a contact along the way.
