Sorry if I forgot to tell how to install JSGME

First I suggest you cut the MODS folder you have and paste it somewhere of your choice, for instance on your desktop.

To install JSGME > Drop a copy of 'jsgme_setup_v x.xx.exe' into C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5

1. Now you run it to install it.
2. During install point it at; C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5
3. After the install has finished >
4. Run the 'JSGME.exe' (the one with the yellow G) and the 'MODS' folder will be created in the right place.
5. Drop copies of your mods into this new Mods folder

Now you can use the JSGME properly.

Does this mod change the way deck gun can operate ?

Now even on calm sea, I have many difficulties to keep the crew on the deck gun every time my depth is below 6.0m i think they dissapears.

As the sub sway beetwenn 5meter to 6.x, deck gun crew appears/dissapearq, is there's a way to change this value to 6.5 meters.

When i get a radio message from bdu asking me to report in(light blue colour) Can i answer from 2 places? In Captains log with the status report or from radio man with the patrol report? I am a little confusius

As for deck gun and high sea, you can manually change that, think its something with wind and meter per sec. Like example.... if 9 is value then at 9 meter per sec wind you cant have guys on deck gun. Increase that to be able to get on deck gun in high sea. Sorry, dont know where in the files. Maybe in the Cfg folder.

Ahoy Choum.
It doesn't change it no. Your deck gun crew should clear off the deck with over 5m depth, so until that boat comes up to 5m, your gun crew will not fire. It is very frustrating indeed when under pressure to fire and the crew keeps popping in and out. What you can do to try and get that boat at the proper depth is to order ahead standard for a short time, say 30 sec to 45 sec at the most. Then back off your speed again.
Mind you, we are talking about relatively calm seas. In rough seas, it was impossible and dangerous to use the gun as men would be washed over.
Anyway, there is one more salvation. There is a mod I believe called "Bad weather Guns" and it does just that. You'll be able to use the guns no matter what the weather conditions.

with New ui (ok, boat pitching up) :


with New ui (dissapear, boat pitching down)



Without New ui :


Without New ui (just before the boat reach completly the surface) :


So the newui change something somewhere about that.
The new ui parameters is bad, as when you can't use your deck gun, you can't have men to the flak gun too

I don' find the option of cfg to edit to avoid that.

I think it's better to use the radioman to order up answers to the BDU, or even patrol reports, of course contact reports if you're using TDW's UI.
I remember TDW mentioning that one time, "not to use the captain's log for Patrol/Contact reports if you are using his UI.
It's something to do with his new messages not responding to the Captain's log, this may have changed or whatever.
I have not gone back to using the captains log except to check out convoy/merchant reports. Using the radioman, I get very good results from the BDU concerning Wolfpack help. I also changed the parameter in the options editor of BDU response to my messages to 40 or 50%, this helps too.
Yes, if you are getting the Blue messages I would definitely use the radioman.
Hope this helps

Yeah, i found out that when i send it from Capt. Log there is no entry in the log on the right side. But when i do it from radioman it comes up "report sendt". So i agree, stay with the trusted radioman. Thanks... you old dog.

About the deckgun issue. By the looks of those pictures there is something wrong. I could have a picnic on that deck without getting wet. Could it be a conflict between mods. If so, its wierd. Maybe some of the gurus here can help.

Ahoy Choum,
Post your mod list please. You are correct in that it appears that your deck gun crew should be there. This is not a intended effect by the UI mod (or any that I know) however it may be just a question of mod order.

here's my mod list :



I just remove 24 (new ui) and 25 (speech recognition) to fix deckgun crew in my screenshoot.

Been searching around, but need some help. When it say radio message intercepted, can you get that in german voice? I asume this comes from this mod.

4500 meters maybe? If yes - than yeah, it is somewhat possible.. unlikely, but...

But not from 4500 kms..

There is an options button on the radio message screen when you can change this
