[REL] Old Style SH Controls (familiar 3 dials) for UI v1.3.1

[scumm]

Good work :yeah: when will in Spanish?

[AOTD_Rhonen]

yes they are working GREAT :up: They look awesome.

I'm trying to merge all my UIs into one file that the user just has to set some options to enable each one instead of using different mods for each (combining them into one mod). Ultimately making a Page that the user can go to in the game to select which UI they want to use in real time (so they can switch on the fly). But I'm stuck on a problem with accessing imported global variables in InitializeScript() in each page that needs to 'read' the variables.

that sounds well :)
Waiting for your update :salute:

as soon as someone translates the menu.txt file to Spanish. This applies to any other language also.

I tried Google Translate, but it apparently gave up around line 3707. :P

[TopCat]

Dark Wraith, you're the man :yeah:. I consider it a very good idea to merge all your work together to one mod with different options. Hope you keep to the variety of different options for the ui. I love the zillions of dials while others seem to be more happy with a simple solution.
Thanks again for your great work!

TheDarkWraith, is it possible to see your wonderfull mod in Polish? I can send you menu.txt in Polish from localised version. It would be great for Polish players :)

[Adam84]

I cannot see any of your photos demonstrating this mod, is this a problem at my end? If so please tell me what will cure it.

Thanks

It's not a problem of yours. Actually, his photobucket account had an overload in the monthly max bandwidth department.

Cheers :rock:

One of the best mods for SH5! :salute:

The only thing which bugs me is that it is not compatible with "No Lock text Mod". Having the "Lock target" and "Switch target" labels kills the immersion.

I have read the modder's post and he had to move the labels out of the screen instead of deleting them. I have tried the same thing with your Page attack periscope.ini, Page obs periscope.ini and Page UZO.ini but the damned thing stays there. :hmmm:

Any chances on pointing me to the right direction?

Thanks!

I've added the option to remove them via scripting in the next release.

Very good work on this mod TheDarkWraith :yeah: !

You have made a very nice interface and thought at people who doesn't have wide screen (TDC overflow on the scope view) and let us the possibility to desactivate the TDC and keeping the 3 dials, it is thought :yeah:... and, it is rare... you have thought to the none British players who play by giving direction to keep our language. :yeah:

Thank you! I hope your mod will be compatible with next (?...) patch.

There are plenty more a working stadimeter and this game will be very good...

:arrgh!:

Sometimes the boat doesn't respond to change course by clicking tha compass gauge. I've noticed it happens at TC 32x or more. Thre is speech confirmation but the course remains unchanged.

I have had this with the Compass Mod, but have not noticed it with this one yet. But I do not think I have TC past 32 yet with it.

Noticed it too though didnt click may have to do with TC

Same problem here.

[Flinch]

Hey - Love the mod!

Having one small issue - I re-sized the notepad/status report box to the left of the 3 dials. When I clicked the expand button it expanded to where the bottom of the box is cutoff (maybe 1-2 lines of text). This also hid the expand button on the box. Any way to fix this? Or be able to move the box around the screen by clicking and dragging? Hopefully this makes sense to someone. Thanks!

[ataribaby]

Hi TheDarkWraith
Can i nicely ask if its possible to make just compass dial somewhere above stock UI speed readout? Like yours CompassSH5TheDarkWraith.zip but more finished. This one stays on in port and not scale position correctly with 4:3 screen. I like stock UI and only what i missing is compass to change bearing easly. If it will be possible and notmuch work for you i will be extremly happy.

[stoppro]

thank you these mods are needed and very useful. no complaints- at all-about anything. thanks again

[ingsoc84]

Havnt followed totally, but do we have a working gramaphone with music yet?

[SteamWake]

Hey I noticed today that the "Fire at waterline" or "Fire at superstructure" appears to work :up:

The change course by clicking on compass rose does nothing for me either.

The rudder control (subset of compass) does work however the navigator is a tad off... For instance I will order right 10degrees rudder, the nav will announce "Right 2 degrees rudder" a visual inspection confirms that it is indeed at 10 degrees :rock:

I wouldn't be surprised if he is taking a well deserved rest he was at this mod for days on end. :)

Ringy.

all my UIs will be integrated into one mod. Via one file you'll select which UI mode you want to use and which settings you want (lock/no lock displayed, player guidance enabled, certain TAI features enabled/disabled, TDC type, etc.). This way you can try them all out.
Eventually I'll have a page in the 'options' page of the game where you'll be able to select this while playing the game and thus change your UI on the fly.

Are you patched to the latest version of Silent Hunter 5, this can be an issue of a game installed straigh from CD and not patched to V1.1.5. :up:

[THE_MASK]

Could you include skwajers digital clock please .

[Surfrider]

Yes it's was the wrong version of the game.When i see the ingame version,it was 1.0.5 .Then i try to install patch 1.1.5 but there was error that can't install that version of patch.So i decided to install whole game again and patch it with automatic installer,which did not work in 1.0.5.After installed game again ,automatic installer patched game to 1.1.5,and now the game and this mod is working fine :salute:
