No, that's JSGME... You need "Silent Hunter 5\TDW_GenericPatcher_v_1_0_168_0\GenericPatcher.ex e".

pretty sure the full installer automatically starts the generic patcher .exe. The patch does not, but without asking, I wouldn't know I needed to. From full install instructions:

Quote:

Step 2:
The Generic File Patcher window will pop-up automatically after Step 1 is done*. Select
desired language and properly activate the Patcher:...

The patch does automatically open JSGME and give you instructions.

That's why I mentioned it in the change log for the last update...

Hi Veko,
I have a gameplay question about 2.2.10 (and later): When you are asked to patrol a zone for 48 hours by BDU, you must still do it in 1-go for the timer not to reset, right? So when I save game in the middle of the zone, it will still reset?

What do you gain when completing this patrol time? (Just to know if I can skip it without big penalty).

Thanks and Greetings!

@Xenonsurf...

Yes, if you do not complete in 1- go the timer resets. This has happened to me a couple of times.

You get a bonus point for your crew upgrades. If you don't complete it, you don't get the point. So you get three patrol zones in a patrol, that is 3 possible bonus points you can get in a patrol!

XenonSurf · 04-18-19, 01:39 PM

Thanks, Bstanko6, so I will have to redo it, I've saved and leaved game in the zone. Not too bad, my zone is very target-rich anyway...

Cheers,

bstanko6 · 04-18-19, 03:08 PM

All you have to do is leave the radius and re enter the zone.

Eastern coastal waters is 120km radius, and everything else 200km. Go past 200km re enter and you are good again!

You... disabled the "round numbers in torpedo solution line"?...

Or am I completely missing something?
How can I get them back?
It's a shame, but there is no way to hit somebody at an acute angle

using attack disk or RAOBF.

Back after a long Break. What does the loading screen look like now? It doesn’t say wolves of steel does it?

Mine says open horizons

Did I mess up the installation?

CaptainCorcoran · 04-18-19, 09:31 PM

it works! testament to your instructions great job.

now all i need to do is learn to speak German

Can't I change the speech back? (i did see in support doc's that you say tex in English speech in German) but still would be nice to have my officer still shout out loud "man the deck gun" lol

was there a reason behind only German speech? just authenticity?

OTOH, "Deckgeschütz besetzen!!" sounds so much scarier. Perhaps this comes from watching so many old war movies starring "ze evil Germanz" as a child but German language witch its abdunance of "rrr"s, "zzz"s and the way accents are placed always seemed to me extremely fitting for shouting orders.

"Aggressiver sein!"
