I don't use external camera so underwater views are irrelevant .

Nights are not always dark . It also depends on the time of year and location . Here is a long summer night . 25000mts smoke on the horizon at 2 oclock in the morning .

Hello all, I am trying to get sobers beautiful modlist working on my SH5 but have apparently run into some problems. I followed the below quoted instructions to the T. After the last step (starting the new patrol) I checked my map too see if it looked like the picture in sobers post #2 and it had not. I was in September 3rd, the Baltic operations mission didnt have the grey request missions box, and my boat was docked at Kiel. I uninstalled and re installed as instructed and followed the instructions again and still the same thing. Any help?

Extract the patcher to your desktop and then open it following the prompts . Click on restore snapshot and then point to sobers GES file .

[INFORMATION] sobers mega mod .
Ok , its not a single download .
What it is , is a list of mods i use and how i adjust settings and how things are installed and where things go and everything you need to know to get you started and start playing with my list . cheers sober out .

If you want german language then choose custom install when installing the game and tick german language .

Only ever install the mods list on a new SH5 game installation.
In other words if you played previously then uninstall the game and the save games.
Delete any left over files in the SH5 game folder and then reinstall Sh5 .

Enable all the mods with the mod enabler.
START A NEW CAREER AND click COASTAL WATERS ON THE CAMPAIGN SCREEN or type silentotto on the campaign selection screen .
Skip the Tutorial .

WHEN IN THE BUNKER GO BACK TO THE MAIN MENU SCREEN AND Click on continue campaign. (only do this at the start of a new career )
Do not upgrade anything while in Memel base . Wait until you get to Kiel to upgrade .
While in the bunker click on the flotilla officer and choose a mission by clicking on an iron cross
and then selecting request mission .

Exit the briefing map .
While in the bunker go to the options and choose your difficulty settings by using your keyboard Esc key .
Once difficulty settings are changed go back to the bunker again .
Click on the flotilla comander again
and then click on lets start a patrol .
Only enable snorkels while in the Bunker (Bunker save).

Default Isn't it boosting the fighting spirit?

I mean, this never ending line of new seafarers joining the Subsim fleet wanting to become seasoned captains?
Such a reinforcement surely sends shivers down the spine of the Royal Navy

Still, the one and only real sub simulator like SH5 with the best forum/support on the net and all its skilled and dedicated modders deserves it.

question,i notice in this new mod setup it does not have the RAOBF crosshairs tick marks so i can measure mast height and ship length for AOB...using the large optics for TDW UI,large optics for NewUI's_TDC_7_5_0_Test 17 patch,Large optics for TDW UI 16 by 9...can you still use these scopes for the RAOBF method? or do i need to change something or the scopes?

Sober, nice mod list! I just finished installing it.

I believe I did everything okay, according to instructions.

However, when starting SH5, I get this error message:

"Open error: data/menu/skins/german/upgrade/periscope.dds"

And when loading any mission or career:

"File not found: data/menu/gui/RecManual/CovFlagWorld.dds"

And then identical message 2 or 3 times.


However, the game runs fine, no crashes, no bugs as far as I can see. Apart from that underwater is very dark even during clear day, nothing can be seen through the periscope except for the sun rays - but maybe that's a feature?


Sober, what do these messages mean, I how can I fix them?

I was able to get them back by finding the original .dds for the marks from the TDW UI mod folder in the data/menu/gui/layout directory (i think that's right...at work right now so doing off memory) .

However the scaling is off so it still doesn't work. I'm not sure if there's a way to get the RAOBF to work with Large Optics due to scaling. The marking ticks that come with Large optics doesn't seem to work with RAOBF either. Quite possible i'm missing something though

This mod stops you seeing underwater with the periscope. 'sobers realistic underwater FX8 SH5'

Stops you cheating?

That's what I thought. What about error messages?
