Thnks


Sorry haven't played with TDWs UI_mod or SH5 so not sure what these supermarks are you r referring to.
Can you post a screenshot, most likely these are coded in by TDW - so not sure if I can do them unless its possible to script something?

Ui-Boat V5.01 Uploaded

Beta version of my latest UI V5.01

Found a load of errors in scripts and WIP files that were not required.
Streamlined files from the Mod that are not needed to reduce file size.

Still bugs present, but a good test platform for V5 upwards.
Hopefully this won't cause as much Issues as previous one in order to run and test.

[fromhell]

now going to give it a go, will let you know how it goes.:salute:

[Michal788]

Supermarks are normal marks but with the extra that you can write text under the mark.
So you can take notes in your navigation map.

Example:
X
Ship was sinking here.

Hi.
I have steam version of SHV.
I downloaded 4.15 version and installed it via jsgme. But in game it seems layout is broken.
My screen resolution is 1920*1280 and in game is 1920*1200.
Also ring, for acquiring target's range rounds only counterclockwise.
Could someone help, how to solve this?
Thank you.

Thx for new version, but one question: Is this a standalone version, or do we need an earlier (e.g. v5.0) version enabled first, and then v5.01 on top? :hmmm:

Best regards,
Magic

[Luken]

How does it work on aspect ratio 4:3? :) Screens are different as I can see.

Edit: That UI looks too beautiful... what are the major drawbacks that makes it less popular than TDWs UI?

Ah ok, I'll look into see how this can be done via scripting if at all possible. :yep:

Hi vasmann, I've designed the UI around a ConstantAspectRatioHorizontal Scaling. Using the default Silent Hunter Screen size of 1024*768 this is an aspect ratio of 4:3 while your playing at 1920*1280 (An unusual resolution - not the standard) 1920*1200 is 16:10.

So what is happening is the horizontal plane is scaling until it hits the side of the screen, now with widescreen Aspect ratios this means the vertical aspect scales in relation to that and so scales past the top/bottom of the screen.
This has to be done this war or the Lens would not maintain its circular opening, but would start to look oval instead.
The wider the aspect ration the more of the top/bottom of the screen is lost (This only effect the background Images and the RAOBFs).

The menu items are not effected. If this is not what your reffering to can you post a pic of the issue.

Hi Magic - Yup totally standalone :up: No other version required. :03:

Hi Luken works best at 4:3 aspect ratios, as mentioned above widecreen ratios cause some loss to the top/bottom of the backgrounds in order to maintain correct scaling :up:

If your a Fan of Total Manual Targeting and old-school methods of playing eg SH3, Then Ui will be up your street.
As a huge SH3 fan (still am - prefer it to sh5) I wanted to get back that feel of 100% manual targeting. And while TDW is creating some wonderful additions for SH5, I am not a fan of making the sim more Automated.
I like to do everything myself no matter how monotonous it may be, and not have the game do it for me while just sit back and watch.

So drawback wise: You have to play :O:
Plus wise: Its Sh3/4 all over again - Everything is restored form the Interface - so its not just the eye candy :03: (V5.01 has replica TDC and fat/Lut panels too).

Any v5.1 screenshot? What is new?

[reaper7]

Any v5.1 screenshot? What is new?

Hi Mate most of the changes are in the background, reworked all the scripts.

Moved most items to the DefaultHud and Layout pages - before they were all over the place on different pages.

Re-organised the Layout of the Main view - Icons moved from bottom of screen to topright of screen (Down the side).

Removed the Left and Right TDC panels from the scope pages.
Replaced them with a replica TDC panel that can be opened on any page.

Also added a Replica Fat/Lut panel (Not tested as I had no Fat/Lut torpedoes on board to see if panel worked correctly)

Added a working Target lock button to the Scopes - previous one just assigned a target, new version assigns target on first click - locks to target on second click.


Images are not the final version as in current V5.01

Remember this is just a Test Version - so expect bugs - Please report what bugs you find.

Thanks Guys. :up:

[fromhell]

the crew message screen is down on the right bottom, cant be seen its to dark also when you have the 3 dials up it is behind them so you cant see it any way.:damn:
i think it would be nice if there was some way of reading fuel and battery levels, without having to keep looking at system page.:D
looks nice.:yeah:
still testing.:salute:
will there be a version so can see panels in english?

[Sepp von Ch.]

Thank you reaper7 for these screenshots! Really impressive work!:up:

And I love this block (version 4.14):http://s17.postimage.org/uuzykw523/Recon_Manual.jpg (http://postimage.org/image/uuzykw523/)

In 5.1 and newer version is no longer?:´-(

Hi.
Thank you for your answer. I'll download 5.01 version today and check, is my issue still reproduced. Sorry for my missleading, my in game resolution is 1920*1080.
Anyway I'll wait for evening and check.
Thank you.

[impiman]

I love your mod but please please please produce a video tutorial for newbies like me. Treat me like an idiot I don't care. I just need a step by step guide about how things function When using either manual or automated tdc. Stoanim's tutorials are excellent, but as it is using a different ui mod its not really that helpful
Cheers in advance
Impiman.

[impiman]

for instance when I press space bar to lock the target. I cannot find any command for anybody to follow the target. So instead of trying to find info about the target, i am using my time to try and keep the target within my scope. Also what is the key command to produce the identification manual. when I press identify the target to the torpedo man , nothing happens. I really need a simple step by step manual for this great mod. Also can you give a list of key shortcuts. Cheers, Impiman

Thanks for feedback, I'll make the Dialog box less transparent and move the Main dials behind or to another area of the screen.
Keep forgetting to make them fuel/battery level gauges. Thanks for reminder. :up:

Someday I'll get around to doing some Tutorials and finishing the Manual I had started, although every thing has changed I'll need to restart that project :D

The Ship Target lock is the small round button on the Scope face (there are 2, 2nd one is to change lens filters). :up:
Recognition Manual IS hidden of-screen to the left. You'll see a small brown triangular Tab on the left.
You can click and hold this and drag the Recon Manual out. :up:

Hi Reaper7 :salute:

As you saw I'm back
Congratulations for your new UI, the TDC is really like the real !
I have not tried it yet, but it will know soon

Ps: Maybe with your help (dial and values that you used for the TDC), I could finish one of the conning tower ?

[Lewis Wingerter]

Hi Reaper I had no trouble with 5.01 but when I went to 5.02( in the bunker) I had the exact same problem as I had with 5.0. In the bunker the nav map was white with a x in the box, and both interactive people where injured with no dialogue in the box except go to game. The message box at the bottom had no messages in it. I hope I had explained it well enough.

[Luken]

Hmm it is possible to turn on something like "real navigation" from TDWs UI? :)

:hmmm: I'll double check I packaged all the files correctly. Sounds like a bad script (Did remove all Mods via JGSME and re-install them again).

EDIT: Re-Built the Package and confirmed working ok. Download from same link

Afraid Its not compatibly with any of TDWs UI features .

[Luken]

Afraid Its not compatibly with any of TDWs UI features .

But it doesn't need to be a TDWs mod, just asking about that kind of feature, because if this UI suppose to be realistic, I think many people would choose to play with that kind of navigation also :) . I'm playing now with TDWs UI but also i'm planning to migrate to your UI, because it looks more immersive, and I'm concerned about "real navigation" as it's important feature for realistic play :) .

What exactly does Real Navigation do - I have used TDW's Mod so not sure how its Implemented.
What does it remove/add to the sim?

I'm sure something would be possible to do to add something like that once I knew what was required :hmmm:

[Lewis Wingerter]

Hi Reaper I unloaded and reloaded the mods and still had the same problems. I even re-downloaded V5.02 again and it still didn't work.:hmmm:

Essentially it just removes your boat and any kind of things that auto-updates from the map, so you need to estimate your position yourself (or ask about it your navigator, that can do this with some margin of error (celestial fix (take longer to calculate but more accurate) or dead-reckoning (faster, related to last fixed position)). You have also sextant. The thing with navigator is propably harder to mod, but just removing our boat from map and implement sextant should be easy but I may be wrong :) .

Not sure what causing the Issue on your side Lewis, I've double checked all the files and getting no errors.
I've Installed 5.02 only via JGSME with no Issues.
Running perfectly this side :hmmm:

Something is Interfering with your Mod list, not sure what to suggest. Did you try a new campaign - it may be a corrupt save?

I got 3 save file an I tried it on all 3 the same problem . I even tried it with only 5.02 and OH1.6 loaded(did not work). 5.01 works fine. I also tried(5.02) it on a historical mission and same problems. In my other post I dont know if I mention that the blank nav screen also shows up in the bunker and I cannot close it.

[xfit_dave]

Hi REAPER7,

I too am experiencng exactly the same issues as Lewis with v5.02. I have started a new campaign and it is the only installed mod. SH5 is patched and has the following fixes: hydro, anti lag and 4Gig. I hope this will aid you running the issue to ground.

Hi Dave what type of video card are you using. mine is EVGA(Nivida) geForce 560 GX with the newest drivers(I am wondering if it could be video related):hmmm:. I an still using 5.01 with only a small problem with the periscope. The control box sometime refuse to open. the overhead torp screen works every time.

Hi Reaper I forgot to put in that I had 2 empty boxes at the bottom of the screen(middle) which had the word speed next to it . That was also in the bunker at start up.

[Luken]

Hello Reaper7,
I just wanted to thank you for your work with SH5 UI, I installed it and using now in version 4.14, it's just awesome, immersion is almost full, it's a shame that navigation is still simplified, but even with it it's great, so this post is not about whining, seeking for help or demanding, just personal thanks :salute: . I'm looking forward to 5.XX. :)

[xfit_dave]

Hi REAPER7 and LUKEN, just to be clear I too am having an excellent gaming experience with v4.14, and I totally appreciate the hard work and effort that REAPER7 commits to enhance my enjoyment OF sh5. My comments were not a winge, rather I was doing as requested - reporting bugs to aid in the development of an excellent GUI.

I must be missing a file in the Mod thats present in my actual SH5 Game Installation folder - that would explain why it works ok for me and not you guys.
Now since V5.01 worked it must be included with that one.

Did you try try Installing V5.01 and then Install V5.02 over it to see if it works that way - if so then its definitely a missing file in V5.02

Appreciate the Bug reports - helps me to track down the issue. :up:

Oh my goodnes....this topic will never die....

are you afraid again that someone steals your laurels?

instead of thinking everybody will steal your ideas and work, i would await from someone like you to offer support and readiness to answer some questions about that.

The only way to create an implementation like that is to learn how the mechanism are working in sh5 for real navigation. It can't be copied. It has to be done by ourself. The way here is understanding and not copy it.

No One will steal your work or use it as a reference. I don't do it and i think reaper also does not something like that.

You need to place OHII after Ui-Boatv5.
This is because OHII changes the cfg files of these two ships as above.
Other than that - both these mods will work well together:up:

thanks for a great mod Reaper7:salute:

[Lewis Wingerter]

Thats ok, will work no problem :up:
May need to use the V4.14 though - seems to be an issue with V5.02. Will update once I figure out the problem.

Hi Reaper 5.01 is working very well:up:. The only problem that I found is the control panel for the torpedo; sometime when you click on the icon it wont open(in both ozo and periscope)all other icon seem to be working. I been using 5.01 and OH II 1.7 with the patch and have played only about 2 hours and had no problem:yeah: I will report any problem best of luck on 5.02:salute:

Hey there mate

With the v5.02 I have ran into this graphical problem.

I get this crazy UI when ever load the mod, with and without other mods.

Any clue what might be causing this?

It is something with your pagedefault en pagehub what is corrupt.

Restore the orginal page default hud and page main. (data/script/menu)
Some reason Jsgme can not bring the orginal back if you disable the mod.

So make always a backup of that 2 files.

Thats definitely an error in one of the scripts. Don't know why it works for me though. I'll Install SH5 to another PC and try it on that.
Can anyone running V5.02 when ingame Alt-Tab out of the game, you should see a error message from the script manager - stating whats causing the error.

[Ragtag]

Don't be so arrogant:nope:...do you really think dll's are some kind of secret. I know a lot of people here who can get any information out of dll's as they are needed. (And sometimes the origin code as they are written);)

You are still a skilled modder and you are making a really good work here:up:...but your community behavior is quiet awful:nope:...

Ok Guys - News for those having Issues running Ui-Boat V5.02.
I've just done a fresh Install of Sh5 to another of my PC's (lower spec - but just about runs it).
This PC never had SH5 installed to it so no chance of errors due to same files etc.
Installed JGSME then added the Mod as uploaded to Subim of Ui-Boat V5.02.
Activated the Mod and ran the Sim.
Ui-Boat V5.02 ran perfectly no errors in any scripts or any other misbehaving.
So looks like the issues people are having may be due to JGSME not actually copying over all the Files due to similarities to those from V5.01 still in its history.

Not sure how this is rectified, any one have any experience with JSGME in this area???

At least we know that V5.02 is working as intended :yep:

No. Unfortunately not. A really clean SH5 -- directly after installing and patching to 1.2 -- shows for me the same issues like sidmo has posted. :(

Perhaps it's an issue regarding file paths or language? I use a German Windows 7 and have installed SH5 into "c:\silent hunter 5".

Only suggestion I can offer is like previously said to Alt-Tab out of game (Even better run it in windowed mode) and see if there is an error being reported.
Other than than anyone that has experience running Modding Mode in Sh5 can go into the script manager and see if any scripts are being deactivated.

:hmmm:

[Michal788]

Ill test it tomorow.

Vanilia SH5 + patch 1.2 + MOD 5.02
Delete everthing and than i install sh5 from DVD again.

Then i delete everthing and install again but than with all the MODS and v5.02.

:hmmm:
I did the alt tab and for sh5 it was a blank box with a small round sh5 emblem in the corner and a small line(courser) I dont know if it helpful or not . i also did it in window mode and got no error and the box with the picture of the woman at start up.

GeForce GTX 560 Ti (8.17.12.8562)

1st test
With all the MODS it gives an UI error.
Same as @sidmo001
-------------
If you disable all the MODS with JSGME the error is gone.
-------------
If you enable only the UI-boat 5.02 you see the same error. :down:
(Start with a load mission(error) and with the historical mission(error))
(I think the Attack Disk is blokking the buttons on the left.)
------------------------
2nd test
Delete everthing and install it with only the patch 1.2 and the MOD 5.02.
(UI error agian.)
--------------
Disable it again and its work.
(So it is no JGSME bug)
-----------
enable ui 4.14 and ui 5.02.

Perhaps something in the download archive is missing? Can you try to test your mod with a version you downloaded?

But it shouldn't affect the buttons I think :o .

BIGREG you solved the Mystery, there is the problem and the reason why it works for some and not others.

Anyone that initially downloaded V5.02 have the incorrect files - I had re-uploaded V5.02 with the correct files.
Not expecting it to have been downloaded but looks like some people got the incorrect version.

I re-uploaded one with the Hide Hud button removed as it is no loner needed. but the original scripts is looking for this item and can't find it - hence fails. So the Page Default-Hud script doesn't start and the reason for the whits boxes not being removed.



Solution re-download the V5.02 (It should be the correct version) if not I'll reupload it again as a new file not as a replacement file. :up:

That looks like an old version of the UI and probably not working correctly. Or else you've install the HiRes Periscope over 4.12 that are not working with V4.12???
I recommend you update to V4.14 or the new V5.02 :yep:

[reaper7]

Do i need this MOD R.E.M_by_Xrundel_TheBeast_1.2 after the UI-Boat MOD?

Hi guys don't use these periscopes with V4.00 upwards not compatiable - Incorrect FOV (These were made for the 1080P version that is no longer supported) :up:

Also using these will overwrite the scripts required for the Stadimeter and Mast Height fixes.
Maybe its time I deleted all my old files from subsim ???

[reaper7]

Ok Guys update on the Problem with V5.02.


After BigReg posted the error, and confirmed it was a problem with my origianl upload having the older file.
Which I belived I had solved by re-uploading the file again.

I just download the File and opened it and guess what its still the old file. This Means everyone has the broken version. :damn::damn::damn::damn:

Ok I'm uploading it again to replace the incorrect file.

So sorry guys - I should have download the file to confirm that it was replaced correctly - My fault.

But at least it should be working correctly now. :up::up::up::up:

Thanks, downloading to test ^^ . I have a question - did you change a UBoot_Sensors.sim ? I would like to install with it UHS for Ui-Boat, and that is only shared file, so would 5.XX be compatible with UHS?

Thanks for the fix Reaper7 works perfect. I'll see if now supports the radio campaign messages v4 OHII & obelix map. xD

- For disk attack: that should be the menu bar over the view (as for the TDC and other), otherwise it's a bit hard to close it :O:

I will test this yet, but otherwise your UI is genial :yep:, I love the TDC panel :rock:

Besides fixing few minor problems, I think there are three things that would make that UI simply perfect for me, and by perfect I mean, I would never look at any other UI - EVER. That things are:

1. Working Attack Disc with all rings/discs (I'm just in love with this tool :D )
2. Proper Recognition Manual
3. Manual navigation (the least important for me, mainly immersive factor)

It looks so good, that lack of these features is so painful to accept... It's like you can easily imagine that UI with these tools, and you are almost crying that they are not there. Easy to imagine, hard to code :( . It's a shame that I can't code to help with it. But I can try to polish some graphics, don't know yet. I'm not familiar with dds format but I do have a Photoshop with plugin for it. The problem is - while saving there are many options to choose from, and I don't know how should I save it.

http://i40.tinypic.com/2ntwheg.png

Any clues how should I save dds files for SH5? :)

[BIGREG]

:salute: I dont know your exporter ( i have not photoshop)
But,i use DXTBmp is free and easy to use :03:

open the dds with DXTBmp-> export the alpha (to redo later)-> send the map (not the alpha) to photoshop (see menu pref for choose)->make your change save (bitmap,targa,dds )-> reopen with DXTBmp, import the saved alpha or redo a template alpha -> and save as DDS DXT5

Voila :03:

3. Looking into that at the moment - have a few ideas :know:

Luken is the attack disk not working correctly in ui 5.02?


As for dds files in PS. All you need to chose is DXT3 from the dropdown menu. Or DXT5 if you need better transparency for items like glass (Less compression but larger filesize)

Hello, I tried to do my first modification of modification (Ui-Boat 5.02) :D .

My target was RAOBF as I don't really like its graphic.

That's how looks like RAOBF in Ui-Boat now:

http://i39.tinypic.com/21ngn0m.png
http://i40.tinypic.com/15n4m50.png (red light)

For me that graphic has few major flaws:
1. It's too bright (irregularly) even for a daylight.
2. The perspective was somewhat messed up because of that knob on bottom-right.

So I tweaked it a little to make it look more realistically and not out of place.

http://i42.tinypic.com/1zzos1w.png

As you can see I changed a little bit also a color of center ring so the whole thing looks more clear (for me at least), but I'm not sure of that change yet.

The problem is that the night version is too dark - http://i41.tinypic.com/2cdfgw4.png and I don't know what to do with it, I tried to play with RAOBFNightMask.dds but without good results yet. :-? I will also try to make every number more clearly visible by some pixel art ;) .

What do you think about that version? :)

Hi Mate, here is a reference pic of the original.

As can be seen the Knob is actually at that perspective it come out from the plate at an angle so as to be turn-able :03:
I've kept everything (except the scaling as close to original as possible).
But I'm happy to see you making any Improvement to the files you wish and when your happy with the results I'll link them on the front page :up:.

Keep up the good work mate. :salute:

For the Nigh Mask you can edit the colour/translucency via the Menu Editor. Goto Pageattackperiscope_RAOBF_RAOBFNightMask and you can change its colour from the colour picker (Will be the red box) and its alpha can be change from 0 (Invisible) to 255 (Solid) by the A value. :up:

Hi Mate, here is a reference pic of the original.

http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/734/wwheelfz1.jpg

As can be seen the Knob is actually at that perspective it come out from the plate at an angle so as to be turn-able :03:
I've kept everything (except the scaling as close to original as possible).
But I'm happy to see you making any Improvement to the files you wish and when your happy with the results I'll link them on the front page :up:.

Keep up the good work mate. :salute:

For the Nigh Mask you can edit the colour/translucency via the Menu Editor. Goto Pageattackperiscope_RAOBF_RAOBFNightMask and you can change its colour from the colour picker (Will be the red box) and its alpha can be change from 0 (Invisible) to 255 (Solid) by the A value. :up:

Yeah but on the picture, the wheel is showed from the perspective. I'm staying in front of the periscope and shouldn't see the wheel from that perspective if it is straight in front of me. So that is why I think it looks strange :) .

Edit: Sorry I missed it " it come out from the plate at an angle so as to be turn-able" - are you sure? This picture was taken from an angle, this disc isn't even round.

Edit 2: Anyway I will make my version that is more pleasant for eyes I think ;) .

Yes I'm pretty sure the Knob is at an angle - If you look at the eyepieces which have the deepest extrusion in the picture you can see no perspective difference showing the picture is taking straight on.
So if that is the case, the knob being lower down is the framed shot should have its perspective in the opposite incline - that is you would see the face of the back of the knob not the front as in the pic.
This means the knob is angled out towards the operator.

But I'm happy for you to make any changes you wish - And if you wish I will Include them as an addon for others to use from on the first page of this thread :up:

Just a minor bug with TDC - if I turn it on, it removes glass from dials that I can move, except of speed dial :) .

Edit:

One more little bug (?):
You can infinitely rotate RAOBF counter clockwise but you can't do it clockwise.

Suggestion:
Would it be possible to make a Ctrl a button that would turn on and off (or you would need to keep it pressed) that three main dials? That would be pretty handy ^^ .

Thanks Luken will look into that :up:

Edit:

Afraid this is stock behavior - of the Dial type used to rotate dial. I need to look into doing this by Python instead of dial.cfg ;)

Not sure which 3 dials your referring too :06:

I'm still not sure what it is your requesting

Hi Luken, sorry if I'm having a dumb moment but I'm still not sure what it is that your requesting :06:

The 3 dials are controllable via the Icon on the right (Ship steering wheel with 3 dials underneath).
This is switched to show/hide the 3 Dials - and if you click the brass stems under the dials you get the alternative dials
Default = Telegraph Speed/Compass/Depth 25M
Alternative = Precise Speed/Rudder/Depth 160M

Got you PM, I'll forward that file to you when I get home from work :up:

Sorry if my English is really bad sometimes :D . I mean - it would be nice if ctrl button (on keyboard) would do the same what that button for that dials does - show them and hide them. I was often turning them on and off (because I don't like too much GUI visible if I don't need it), and doing it by using keyboard would be handy :up: .

Ah now I see, Not sure if I can script keyboard commands into python.
I'm sure it must be able too, I'll do some research and see if its possible :hmmm:.

Oh that file is sending now ;)



EDIT:

Well after looking to the Internet and back to the Script Manager and the stock Scripts:

I've figured out how to do it :rock: I can now assign key bindings to the Toggle Buttons etc both working together so you can either click the button or press a key :D

Just got the TDC onscreen switching on/off by the keyboard key X and also by its switch.
Also both can be used together so if you bring up the TDC by the X key you can remove it from screen by the TDC Icon or visa-versa :up:

Hi reaper7,

I'm in my firsts steps on Sh5...this yours UI is totally independant of TDW one?
I mean,i need to choose one or another?

If so - please correct meif I 'm wrong - I will loose that others Ai/UI fixes that comes with TDW UI - I mean for example changes in radio contacts radius, etc?
Or you also incorporated some fixes?

Thanks in any advice!

But the AI fixes and exe fixes that TDW created are available seperate from his UI too, they can be used with my UI. :up:

I have these conflicts with IRAI:
-Uboat_sensors.sim

And this with SteelViking's Interior Mod V1.2:
-Room_QR1.sim

Well, you know, I´m new to SH5...so...your UI have some type of teleport ala SH3? I really need them...:D
I don´t know if it´s only me...but Sh5 is really difficult to dig in...it´s almost impossible to find where to look to find yourself on it.

[Michal788]

Hoi reaper I test is.
Its work. :D

But i have a few request.
1. The dials are blokking the tactical map.
Maybe you must put them in the middel.

2. The message box.
Maybe you can make light grey with the red light off.
And dark grey with the red light on.
And do you like the black letters? :o

3. And the last can you make the compass more beautifuller.
The one from CSP Magui Interface is nice. (HINT):O:

[DrJones]

Thanks Mate, can you send me an example of how to implement one :up:


Hey...yes i will sent you some info's about that....the easiest way would be to have a lokk at ma pagedefaulthud.py.

You will get pm this afternoon

A little aesthetic suggestion: http://i42.tinypic.com/153wsxi.jpg these are two kinds of buttons, so I think there should be some space between them, not big - just some, maybe about height of one or two buttons. I think that would make interface more clear. BTW: I'm making a new RAOBF from scratch based on proportions from the file you sent me. Main goals are - toned down contrast and brightness and bigger, more visible numbers. Release will be soon :salute: .

How is it going with your UI mod?

Slowly but surely, got stuck for the last 2 days with a bug in one of my scripts that is causing a CTD and having a hard time tracking it down :damn:.

But work is going forward on here :up:

[Sepp von Ch.]

Any progress please reaper7? I like your UI very much.

[reaper7]

Hi Josef,

Haven't done much with it the last few weeks, hopefully I get some time this week.
Its pretty close to a stage where I can release the latest updates. :up:

[Sepp von Ch.]

Thank you reaper7 for you answer and info! I know, you fight on more fronts (HAHD, your UI in SH5) and that is good. I look forward to further development:Kaleun_Periskop:

[Captain73]

Hello Reaper7! I wait the output of update version! :) It was Desirable to see D in the future in Ui-boat of fashions of the real navigation and board with a chalk! It would be fine! Thank you for labour sorry for my English!

[57B]

This mod looks great and can't wait to try it!!! But there is one thing I've always searched for and couldn't find
1) independent controls over each individual engine alone ie. Port or Starboard engines instead of always using both at the same time
2) option for both diesel ans electric on surface for and extra boost of speed
3) manual control of dive plans during submerged maneuvers
4) manual control of ballasts
If anyone know where of how to get this in silent hunter V thanks in advance!!

I'm afraid all off that would require exe edits. :cry:

[57B]

I'm afraid all off that would require exe edits. :cry:
Fair enough. That would be cool though
As far as the bet version. Do you have a link to show all the features? I noticed 2 additional icons at the top (world? And microphone?)
Also can't see to get the attack disk to function, objects are clickable through the disk. Pushing F1 does not show new hotkeys and the hotkeys are not functional. Submarine school page is blank in opening screen. Are these rendered in the beta version?
*note- could not get JSME to activate, manually backed up and merged files into their directories

[fromhell]

Hi reaper7, will your new update include a gauge for fuel and battery amounts?
really hope so and am looking forward to it.:salute:
best regards hope your well.

[Captain73]

All the same fashion of the real navigation is not enough! And the mod Radio_Messages_1_2_0_UI-Boat_v4_14 is why it doesn't work with the UI-Boat v4.14 ???

Hello reaper7,

almost a month has passed, so I ask if and when will be the next update of your famous UI mod?

[mttmayne]

Liked this one more than DW ui mod. Love it! After playing for awhile could someone tell me when the snorkel becomes available?Also i noticed that after installing this mod and the other mods steelviking recommanded my boat depth is off. At deeper depths ill order 140 meters but the boat levels at 160 and stays there. Shallower deaths its ok but when i surface the boat breaks the sureface and the lookouts come out but then drops back down the 20 meters or so then comes back up to surface and stays there. Any ideas?

[Michal788]

Reaper,

Im concerned about you. I see no progress on your UI-mod.
Maybe you must finish your project and stop than.:timeout:
We are waiting for you last update and than you are free.

I hope everything is ok.
Because we are big fan of your UI-mod.:rock:

kind regards,
Michal

Hi Reaper, I am having a little problem with uzo mode. I am using your Ui 502(no CTD) and cannot get the torp. tube and fire button to show. It works find in the periscope mode. I tried saving and rebooting the game and I still not able to get the torp button to work. Is there a file that I can edit. I have been playing the game since you put out Ui 502 and I have not had a CTD.:up: I had also use OHII 1.8 and 1.9 with your mod and not had a ctd.

Hi Mate, in process of new version and bug fixes.

Have now fixed the issue with the Torp Panel and RAOBF not showing on the Obs Scope :up:

Also thanks to radcapricorn :up: he has helped me to implement his methods of creating working mouse draggable Attack Disc and RAOBF wheels.

For that reason I have remade the Attack disc to Hitmans V2 Attack Disc previous one was based on his V1 attack disc due to only having 1 player controllable dial on the disc due to methods previously used.

Now all 4 Layers are fully draggable via mouse (no more dial.cfg tie-ins) :yeah:

I really like your UI so I'm impatiently waiting for next release.

Any idea when we could expect it? :D

Just wanted to pop in and say your UI design prowess (along with whoever helped) rivals, no, surpasses many of todays big budget games. UI design is an art, and a science. You sir are a master.

[Grezkev]

how do you use the recon manual? it doesn't have the links...

Aside from that your work is incredible. Attention to detail 10/10.

[HennivR]

Restore the orginal page default hud and page main. (data/script/menu)
Some reason Jsgme can not bring the orginal back if you disable the mod.

So make always a backup of that 2 files.

I have the exact same problem. Your suggestion did not help. Has anyone solved this issue yet?



Update: I uninstalled SHV & re-installed patched to 1.05. My problem still persists. I cannot close the blank TAI window at all & I have no other mods installed - only this one. I installed it directly after re-installing SHV. So no other mod corrupted anything as yet.

Please, any help would be appreciated as I'd like to use this stunning interface.

Kind regards,
HennivR

Note: Just discovered that I was not patched to latest version. Fixing that right now - I'll report back when done.

[HennivR]

Thank you so much mate & sorry for bothering you!!! Ubisoft did all sorts of online things to my game & I mistakenly thought I was patched to latest - I was not!

I now patched & your stunning interface works!!! Can't wait to start using it. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

Kind regards,
HennivR

[salamanderrake]

Firs off I'd like to say what a wonderful mod especilly since I'm running sh5 through wine on linux and i cant use TDW's NeWUI mods. and also because its just allaround awsome. But i have only two problems with it, one I wish it was scaleable or had different resolution versions cause my monitor is only 1600x900 and some of the items like the Attack dial cover more screen then it needs to and also the RAOFB yours or Lukens doe not match up with the lenses in the attack periscope. Also are there manuals so that i can use your dials for the torpedo and etc.. and please come back to sh5 we need you and your UI.:salute:

[Cybermat47]

Despite the fact that I won't be downloading, good job!

Hello,

Is there any news about the lasted update?
I wait so long.:wah:

[Lewis Wingerter]

Has anybody heard anything on or if there is a update in the wings for this great mod.

This is the best UI mod out there in my humble opinion. I was just wondering if the final version is coming out anytime soon, or if Reaper has halted work on it?

Thanks!

Am i the only 1 who Has a crew management Tab malfuction it's there but its greyed out and when i click on it i hear it go TIC but it dosent open the tab... I have 5.02 Beta btw. Any fixes for that? i'm running SH Gold 1.20 updated with the .exe patch from TDW i've tried to dissable that fully and test the UI and still same issue. I have uninstalled and renstalled.. No joy still.

I've downloaded this
Ok Guys update on the Problem with V5.02.


After BigReg posted the error, and confirmed it was a problem with my origianl upload having the older file.
Which I belived I had solved by re-uploading the file again.

I just download the File and opened it and guess what its still the old file. This Means everyone has the broken version. :damn::damn::damn::damn:

Ok I'm uploading it again to replace the incorrect file.

So sorry guys - I should have download the file to confirm that it was replaced correctly - My fault.

But at least it should be working correctly now. :up::up::up::up:

Hi, I'm newbie here. Is this game as good as Silent Hunter 3 years ago? I hope it is. I've played it at single player and with mods. My colleagues tried to make their own mod, but testing failed. This guys http://qatestlab.com/services/we-are-professionals-in/user-interface-testing/ said that we should work harder to make it better.

But maybe i just simply not know how to use. I Mean i know how to use for solutions but how to use ingame? I cant do anything with the Attack Disc in here.

i Mean:

Clock = O

My guess would be to check the Python scripts in the Menu folder.
