A mod to enable opening of all torpedo tubes?

[Kapteeni Rantala]

I might have missed this (although I have made heavy use of Search with no results), but is there a modification which enables opening of all torpedo tubes (currently I can keep only one open at a time)?

I also have one other favor to ask, although it is off-topic; could someone please give me links to good crew uniform mods? I have been unable to find one (which would not require editing of text files anyway to work properly; really, I don't like doing that stuff) which would add good looking uniforms for the crew.

If you want to open all the tubes at once, select a full spread from the TDC screen and press Q. Then unselect the spread option. That will open all tubes and if you goto the Peri/Obs screen straightaway, they will remain open and you can fire them all in sequence.

Please note, that if you then select different tubes while in the Peri/Obs screen they will close again.

Well, I am aware of that, but having played Silent Hunter 4 for some time I got used to the choise of opening tubes by just selecting them and pressing Q. I take it there is no modification which would add hotkey "open all tubes" or merely allow them to be opened the way I described first?

(and don't hesitate to post your thought of my second question)

As of now no one has been able to create new key assignments we can only modify them so until ubisoft gives us the source code we cant add new ones.

I find it easiest to just use the external attack 'scope view (the one that has you sitting in the saddle looking at the 'scope) and open them all manually. They stay open that way.

I open them using the WO panel switches, they also stay open that way.

:hmm:

Or if you really want, you could use a keystroke recorder :lol: to playback the commands:

Select Tube 1
Open Tube
Next Tube
Open Tube
Next Tube
etc...

with a single keypress.

Set Keys is one way to change your key assignments

Or if you want to do it manually, you can use SH3KeyChecker to get the keymap

As for the crew uniforms, have a look at venatore's work mate - search the mod forums for "venatores mod drive-through":yep:

But doesn`t the one before close when you open the next one ?

[KapiteinP]

It does.

I open the tubes I want in the TDC (F6) screen. Just don't select a tube again in the Periscope or UZO screen until you've fired a tube.
