[REL] Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC

[jwilliams]

The gyroangle is the angle that your torpedo's will travel to your target. You want this to be as close to zero as possible. I usually fire torps within 10 degrees of zero.

Oh and welcome to Subsim Ooruim.

For a few days now i've been watching the progress u guys made with SH5 and decided to give it a try again now that i have free time. But I stuck trying installing this mod :S

The following screen comes up and the button's don't work :S I think its the journal interface right? I haven't tweaked the mod i just installed NewUIs_TDC_6_4_0_ByTheDarkWraith with jsgme.

Any help?

Finally found out why i had this problem. When i tried to play with the settings of the mod i changed the boats number and captain's name to better suit me. I put in U-525 and captain JiMeS. But as i reloaded the game again the same problem happened again. I left it as TDW default cause i don't have time to play around.
So i guess the problem arises as i input wrong data in the settings file

Thanks,
Good to know things are in order.

Incorrect UI style means the tutorial is expecting a certain UI style and you are not using the correct one. Looks like you were using SH3 style and it was probably wanting SH5Enhanced.

Thanks!

on the gyro angle question i dont think he was asking what the gyro was i believe he was asking why his scope it pointed at 0 and one gyro is off just a bit from 0. Another words calibrated off just a bit...

Ive noticed that the scope is off like 1 degree....I think its always been that way tho hasnt it. cause i know if you want 259 degrees course you have to give it 258.

[stoianm]

is not big deal... maybe scope visual is a bit deplaced (like lees than 1 degree...) ... just hit the view to heading key... and watch the numbers on the XO dialog or the giroangle... i thinks the Bearing.dds is not well calibrate from stock... also the 1000 metters bearing ploter is deplaced with 1 degree

[sirbum69]

yep. and i hate that i have to zoom in so far before my bearing plotter even shows, or for it to be accurate.

If he had matched his giro angle to zero - scope bearing would then have
been exactly on zero.

yeh i match mine all the time on 0 when i do fast 90 and my scope bearing will always be just off to the right of 0. has been this way sence i started playing the game.

So if you have yours exactly on 0 then tell me how pls lol....All tho the amount that it is off never really messes with my shots. Only time i seem to miss is when i have the speed off...if im off by 1 Knt i can miss from 3Km on fast 90. I hate that.

on another note, stoain have you done a video that teaches you how to lead a boat? another words say i want to lead the boat by 10 degrees with my shot, what i set my AOB too...i know there use to be a video for this but i cant seem to find it

see real navigation... and in all the videos i lead my boat to put myself in 90 degrees with the target course... it is the same principe for anny degrees

See pic


Try loading a mission and raise your scope without moveing it.
It your is off there nay be a vertical in your scope mod a pixel to the left.

watch the tdc settins also.
