Addtions:

Here are some Changes and Additions.

Added the Minefiled Map from silentsteel and the Chrono style from naights.

The Attackdisk Front and Back Side are fully working now. The Lagewinkelscheibe bei Hitman is included and fully working, The RAOBF is integrated and fully Working.

The Attack and Obervation Scope has now the ability to swtich between 3 different Scope Filters. There is a button in the top right console, wich only appears in one of the views.

the XO Dialog is Draggable now also the the annoying Crew Image can now be dragged away if not used in uzo attack or observation scope view.

In the Tdc for UZO Attack and Observation scope are some new buttons. ONe of them is to show up the torpedo tube Panel. The other one is to show up the Stadimeter.

On the Navigation Map xou will find a new button to toggle between 3 types of map features wich will appear or not..some like view cones aso wich wil be visible or not. just play around with them. Have to work with it some time again.

The same is there for the TAI Map. The button for that is to find in the top left Console.

Some Pictures from that and a manual will be come soon.

Best Regards

DrJones

Important:

This mod has been done for the community. Everybody is allowed to use the parts and make changes to it.(Just ask and give credits) There's still a lot of work to do. In my opinion everbody is welcome having some ideas for changes and additions. But...important for me is, when somebody makes some changes, please tell me or send it to me.

I tried to keep a simple way of scripting for all those who are interessted in learning how things work and can be done in SH5. Yes, i know...there are still a lot of ways to get results. My mind is keep it simple, difficulty is coming on its own.

Credits:
Here i want to say "Thank You" to all the members who gave support for realisation:

To reaper7 for his permission to use some parts and ideas out of his mod
To makman94 who allowed to use is famous work from Sh3 to be implemented to SH5.
To Stormfly to give some nice ideas what has to be done. Work will be continued.:D
To Josef, thebeast and all the others in this treath giving some spots and ideas.
To Testpilot
To Teacher
To Radcapricorn
Now Also in cluded the Charts generated by Sublynx. Thanks for that.
Thanks to TDW to share the Radio Message Mod wich is included
Thanks to gap for his ideas and work so far for this Interface.
Special Thanks to Silent Marshal for his idea to impement the first part of real navigation




Hope i have not forgotten anyone

In this mod included:

- skwas digital clock
- A lot of parts from the Magui Interace from makman94
- Periscope and ObsScope Mask and resolution patches from makman94

Some errors may occur while using teleporting. Just click arround the Stations. When you find yourself out of the boat press "shift+u".

If You enter the attackperiscope, obsscope or uzo the first time the scripts behind to toggle lock a target or the redlight wont switch on and off.

Updates will follow soon. There are still some things, that wont work as they should.

Danke für Deine schnelle Antwort. Prima!

[TheDarkWraith]

Your implementation of teleportation is exactly the same way I made it work in SH5. Coincidence? I think not.

If that code had been placed in a .dll file by me where noone could have seen how I implemented it and you came to the same implementation that would be a different story. But since it's clearly visible in a .py file and you came to the same implementation I have to cry foul.

The game only makes 3 stations visible by code, UZOStation, ObservationPeriscopeStation, and AttackPeriscopeStation. How did you come up with the other additional stations (HydrophoneStation, DeckGunStation, and A01gunStation)? I know how I 'found' those stations and if you want me to think that you came up with the teleportation implementation on your own then you'll be able to explain to me (and everyone else) how you 'found' those stations. Then you'll need to explain how you knew how to code the following for those stations 'from x import y'. How did you determine x for those new stations? If you can tell me that information then I would be more inclined to think you came up with this implementation on your own. If you can't then it's quite obvious where you got the additional stations from.

I will be looking over your code for any other copyright infringements.

I request that you remove this mod from download until you implement a different way of teleportation. Currently you have taken my idea and my implementation of it.

[Feuer Frei!]

Great work. :salute: Thank you.
Glad it is all sorted out now.

any question about that ??

the rest of the information i got from the class structure of the menu editor over the script editor

You are not the only one who has the ability to script and having the knowledge about how programms a working...

Thats all for now

P.S.: The download will not be removed

[TheDarkWraith]

When one can explain how they came up with an idea that is similar to another and can show how they determined their idea then there's no way anyone can argue that the idea is unique and different.

Thank you. I have no problems with your implementation of teleportation in SH5 now. I am satisfied with your response :up:

Sorry postet the wrong piece of code... to find in line 879 - 907

this is the right one

the rest is trying how it works

greeting:yep:

[DrJones]

Thank you. I have no problems with your implementation of teleportation in SH5 now. I am satisfied with your response :up:


Thank you very much!!!!

If you want to include the console in your mod, you are allowed to do this!!!

I think those who are able in scripting should work together not against each other.

And I hope you believe me in the future, that what i am doing i figured out on my own.

in reaper7 mod i still also have some examples how things can be done.

reaper7 gave his mode for free using....

Kind Regards

As a programmer I watch any code that I write like a hawk. Anything that resembles any ideas/code of mine I will challenge the maker of it (I do this in the commercial world also and have no qualms filing motions against persons and/or corporations in court if need be to settle disputes). If they can prove to me how they came up with the idea/implementation satisfactorily then I have no issues with it. That's what I did here. I don't know you or your capabilities just as much as you don't know me or my capabilities. Code is just a very sticky subject in general unfortunately :DL
Just a little FYI about me I work alone. It's just easier that way and that's how I was trained by the military. That's what I know and do best ;)

[Captain Can]

DrJones nice work :yeah: i am definitely trying this for my next patrol.

i still remember how i amazed when i saw those 2 screenshots (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=1576232&postcount=26). but after learning that this UI was built for SH3 and its hard to get it to SH5 i was dissapointed. its great to see you are getting this back for SH5 and i hope you get your support. :salute:

[Zedi]

I know this is only an alpha/beta release but somehow the MaGui flavour is not present. Is not all about inserting buttons and functions in the UI, but also make it to look light and slim like the original mod (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=166320) is. Too bad that Makman cannot help, at lest with advices. This is a very hard UI with a LOT of work to do and programmers usually tend to insert functions over functions and care less about the aspect and fine details. But I admire your intention to reproduce this UI for SH5 and wish you good luck.

I try to do my very best.

You' re right...sometimes there are much more ideas to integrate as they be in the original one.

But the reason is, here in silent hunter 5 there are things possible wich are not in sh3.

As i had the idea to transport a "few" parts from Magui in it, it was mentioned like that.

The left Part of the Console for example is to small in the Origianl Version, and i had to recreate it but it must not be the final idea.

Thats why i released the first step of work i did to get feedback about it.

i promise to you, that the attackscope and observations scope will look like the Original as i can do...

and did you learn in the military how to apologize for false accusations on your own too?

"I am satisfied..." hardly counts

[kalijav]

Is it possible to change the bearing, depth and speed by clicking on the indicators at the bottom left (left click to increase and right to decrease, for example) ? If not, is it possible to do so ?

Great job :)

[Obelix]

Hi DrJones!
When you exit the navigational map is constantly disclosed TAI - it's not always convenient. And yet - although I never use teleportation, I do not find the teleport to the bridge.

New Update. See post 1

Regards DrJones

[Magic1111]

Greeting @ All

Here is an update from the Interface.

Remember it is just suiteable with the stock editon 1.2.

It does noch work with TDW or the UI3.0.

This Mod ist JSGME ready.

The behavior of the TAI Map has been corrected that it is minimized when you leave the navigation map.

Here i got the crew controls in the lower right. A few Orders don't work correctly because of the known bugs of the stock edition.

There are still some details wich have not done yet. I have to think a bout the highlight of the Suborders from the crew controls.

Also tried to put in the MaGui Binocular. Thinking about if its still not to small.

Looks very nice ! Do you plan a version that works with MO in the future ?

Best regards,
Magic:salute:

[DrJones]

A Version for MO:hmmm: Why not.... :yeah:

But at least I should finish this work first as a stand alone first and than i think there is nothing in the way to put it in MO

Hi DrJones!
When you exit the navigational map is constantly disclosed TAI - it's not always convenient. And yet - although I never use teleportation, I do not find the teleport to the bridge.
Teleport to Bridge is the "Unstuck" command.

When Surfaced, the "Unstuck" command takes your to Bridge.
When Submerged, the "Unstuck" command takes you to Control Room.

[DrJones]

Yes the "unstuck" order is what I also found out.

[DrJones]

This is how the Periscope may look like...

We have a working ujagd chrono and the gyro dials upper left are also working.

....will see how far this will going this weekend..

You like the modern digital clock in the WWI U-Boat? I do not like it.

Thanks for yout Feedback...

I think the same way, that a digital modern clock in a WWII UBoat doesn't fit so good.

When you are looking at the original in SH3 there is one...shon in digital bits like i've done it for the Depth knots and rudder....

still working on the grafiks of them, because they are to yellow to me and nocht dark enough..

I tried this mod out for the first time last night. have to say its a really lovely interface, I especially like the fact that its across the bottom of the screen and not spread around the edges like the default interface, cluttering up the view. The dark colours and understated icons really enhance it - a work of art.

Keep up the great work DrJones! :up:

Thank you very much...work is still going on.

The last week i still had not much time to advance my work.

At least as Info to you the torpedo control works as known in sh3.

There will be added a Panel for the opening the torpedo tubesl also.

news will follow

[DrJones]

Hello everybody,

after a long time of designing testing and scripting i can show you know the work of the periscope as it is now.

The torpedo control is like in Sh3 now.
I've Added a Control to open the Tube as a slide in but it is still not finished yet.

I am thinking the same thing as Josef von Posorschitz. IMO, dump the XO TDC box and add him below in the Button Bar for the Battle Stations and Silent Running commands.

Maybe use the Enhance Recognition Manual that has the TDC info built into it. Or just use the TDC Dials in the UI and use the other version of the Recognition Manual without the TDC info.

SteelViking made some Periscope Masks a while back for Reaper7 UI-Boat SteelViking Scopes (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=2870). His Mask's have background textures that are like the Periscope body.
SteelViking enjoy's working with other's and I am certain he will give permission for use. They would need some minor tweaks in order to use.

[tonyj]

I really like the new periscope view DrJones. Top work indeed!

Just a suggestion, the white borders around the various number based dials such as depth, time, etc, seem a little too white and don't quite fit with the rest of the interface which is mainly blue/greys. what do you think?

There actually my Scope I made - There just based on Steelvikings Interior Mod colours so as to match the colours that his mod made to the scopes. :up:

So no problem with you using them if wanted. Just note that they are not properly calibrated to match the stock degrees graticules or FOV.
Unlike my new scopes in the V3.1 of my Ui-Boat Mod, you can use those also if you wish. :up:

http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af168/reaper7_SH5/Attack2.jpg
Scope shown in Stock SH5 - Note proper Graticule scaling and correct 38 degree FOV

Just be careful how you set up your scopes if they don't follow the correct degree spacing they will never work right with the RAOBF etc.
If you need help calibrating them I would be glad to help.

Your also welcome to use my RAOBF which matches the real one. I realy like how your Ui is shaping up, looks great.

Yeah...they are still implemtented but not visible in the screen shot i made. it's a control wich will slide in.

there is a switch to open them. there is a lamp wich indicates if open or not and there is a counter made by digits showing the loading status of the tubes

And yes...it is not possible to fire a torpedo with closed doors. You have to open them first.

I do not think so. This is unnecessary. Campaign missions are on the map. I would rather a simple but realistic interface.
Just my 5 cents Kameraden.

Why not add menu option item to creat dynamic list of available missions not already completed that you can choose from. That way you skip the Map all together. The question is, how to generate/pull the list of missions for the current campain that are not complete yet and have those list automatically as selction options?

The benifit is that the Map would still be an option for those that want it. Then add skip key there as well.

Still try to get in some ideas in, that i've talked about with stormfly.

I've still got not have much time the next week and i have to figure out a lot on my own...

hope i get the persicopeview finished for testing the next two weeks.

Just below the TAI-MAP there are 4 buttons. Are those controlls for verticle tubes to launch mines from VIIC/41?

For each tube you have to flood it before you can open it.

there are also some digits to tell you about the loading status of the tubes.

Stormfly gave me some sounds for flooding and opening it.

My idea is for the time sound is playing to create a blink for the lamps.

I just have to figure out now, how i can implement this.

has anybody an idea how it is possible to implement a switch between the visible index from a static bitmap array controlled by time got from playing lenght of the sound and the times it has to blink.

Still didn't find a way

Not sure if this is what your looking for, but I put a blinking light in my Stadimeter fix. This was activated on clicking the switch - the length you just set with count value and the blink length duration = DurationInSeconds.

This was the code - may be of use: :up: Its in my TorpedoSolution.py script


def StadimeterAct( sender ):
global FlashingIcon
if FlashingIcon != False:
return
else:
item = PageTorpedoSolution_RightPanel_StadActWhite
count = 5
if item.Visible <= 0:
return
if item.Visible and count <= 0:
item["blinking"] = None
item.Parent.AnimationStopped -= BlinkTimerAnimationStopped
return
if not item["blinking"]:
item["blinking"] = True
item.Parent.AnimationStopped += BlinkTimerAnimationStopped
item.Visible = not item.Visible
DurationInSeconds = 0.3
if not item.Visible:
DurationInSeconds = DurationInSeconds / 2.0
#set the animation on the Parent because animations don't run when an item is not visible
a = item.Parent.StartAnimation( MenuItemWrapper.AnimationTypes.Timer, 1.0, DurationInSeconds )
a["blinkitem"] = item
if item.Visible:
count = count - 1
a[ "blinkcount" ] = count
FlashingIcon = False


Also Panel looks great, nicely made :)

looks good,

I realy like the switches !

The lamps should have the same texture structure but different colors.

Would be nice seeing this placed into the whole picture, maybe you could use some photoshop layers from Magui for it ?

Regarding the loading status, i personal wont like it to much, i wouldnt miss them.

...if you manage all this blinking fitting with sound (blinking could also start 2 seconds before the sound play, end 1 second after the sound is finished) that would be awesome ! :rock:

[Sepp von Ch.]

I find this control panel absolutely perfect for this U-Boat sim! Really love this! I can´t wait to try it:yep:

When your famous sound mod, Stormfly, will be compatible with this UI mod, SH5 will turn a whole lot better!

[Stormfly]

i would also recommend deviding the tube sections a bit using some panel seperations (maybe some kind of panel plate for each section together with screws in the edges for each plate, maybe also shadows ?)

The dials from the back side i decided to use dials from the tdc.

A MouseIn event toggles here the tdc autoupdate command.

The dials from the front side are:

-DIAL_TGT_ANG_ON_BOW
-Torp_Depth

The dials from the back Side are:

-DIAL_SOL_BEARING
-DIAL_SOL_RANGE

As you see i bulid in the classic dials for Batteries, Air, CO2 and Diesel from the MaGui interface.

This one will toggle in by Mouse Move in and out over the button for Silent Running in the left part of the console.

The other thing is...the warning icons in the top have moved away...i think they are still not needed.

the few wich i think are important will apear in the bottom of the screen. They will be shown and hidden by scripting.

another feature are the well known crew commands you find in the crewmanagement in SH3. I combinded it with the Captains face in the left Side from the shortcut bar.

It is an toggling Menu bar. The orders wich can be choosen are to activate the damage control team, surface attack and underwater attack and the anti air attack and the drive by surfaced and underwater.

Clicking these orders starts a combo of commands.

In the future you wont be able to use the deckgun or the aagun on your own if you don't activate the crew for it.

Hello and Great mod by the way! I do have a question for Dr. Jones about the main menu and in game menus if you have a moment. When I installed the mod it made my main menu turn into german I believe as well as in game menus.

I am curious to know if there is an English version of this great mod or am I missing a setup step? I installed it with the mod install program that's available called "Generic Mod Enabler".

If there currently is no English version available may I humbly request one in the future if you should feel so inclined.

Again, this is a great mod, I just don't know German.

Greeting@All

Here i got a new Screenshot for the work on the obs scope. because i had also some trouble like reaper7 i had to start once again with this.

The Screenshots are made in the smallest Resolution for this Interface 1280 * 960.

With TDC
http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/7a9ee2505e51a2c02e71fe2bb6c03ef838be1ff536fcc4c828 122f2b11cf717d6g.jpg

There is still some Details i have to work on.
What is missing:

Control Panel Tube Control (Still waiting for it)
Panel for the Stadimeter
Recognition Manual from reaper7 has to be included.

I'am still working on a solution for the user options you can make on your own using a sql database to make them easy to change by the fly while you are ingame.

So far

Greetings

[Stormfly]

wow, this looks realy good !

i would like to see a kinking termination for the upper frame which hold the tube status light`s, like you made for the lower left panel above the digital clock.

...say the weapons officer icon (which is expanding normaly after locking on a target), can we have something like a fixed communication frame/area (also darkened) or solution, not showing his icon but the area even if we havent a locked target ?

this area could maybe grayed out if no target is locked, i dont like his icon visible hanging arround in the UI, its looking disorganised.

can you also hide the "erfassen (lock)" frame and text, its to "housewife like" looking :DL

cant wait for the final torp panel, but art need time...

changing options on the fly is a very important feature, THX for your hard work ! :rock:

The Hide and Lock Frame and the Toggle Lock Frame will be optional to hide and shown....also still waiting for the art from naigth.

Beta release will follow after i have it.

Hi DrJones - Just noticed the Periscope Raise/Lower handle in your pics above. I solved a method to get this working correctly via scripting in my UI.
Take a look at my script and the Menu Editor for any of the Periscope Stations to see how I did it. (You don't get the 3 positions always showing this way)
Works perfectly in-game :salute:

As a programmer I watch any code that I write like a hawk. Anything that resembles any ideas/code of mine I will challenge the maker of it (I do this in the commercial world also and have no qualms filing motions against persons and/or corporations in court if need be to settle disputes). If they can prove to me how they came up with the idea/implementation satisfactorily then I have no issues with it. That's what I did here. I don't know you or your capabilities just as much as you don't know me or my capabilities. Code is just a very sticky subject in general unfortunately :DL
Just a little FYI about me I work alone. It's just easier that way and that's how I was trained by the military. That's what I know and do best ;)

Darkwraith, I clearly understand your candor, and why you would get upset about someone taking your code...however I would like to remind you, ALL game related changes to this game belong to the game creators. As an Legal representive of EA Sports, we have these issues all the time. If a modder makes something for the game...it is on the creative collective to put out there...which means, he does so of feel will knowing the creator of "MOD XXX" is not his/her property when he releases it. It becomes the property of the company who created the code to be modded.

That's an entirely incorrect statement. Here's the reason why: A version of Python was included with the game so that external files could be used to extend the game. Any new external files created are thus not part of the original game and are the property of the creator. Notice I said new and not modified originals. I figure you're going to try to tell me that my .dlls I created are also property of Ubi right? If you are a lawyer then you need to go back to school :yep:

I am struck by such statements!
In the case of sh5 ubisoft and it sounds ridiculous and unfair! :-?
How can claim to have been done by proxy?
Ubisoft threw a crude product market, full of errors and omissions. Simply put - very low-quality product that does not meet the stated advertising. Moreover - ubisoft refused to support the product and stubbornly unwilling to correct its own deficiencies. But getting paid for this alpha version they do not give up and never give up! Ubisoft does not want to fix bugs but the game continues to get paid for it. Modders have thrown all their energies to eliminate errors. If after that ubisoft claim to modders products and more - will try to capitalize on this money - that's where it will be the highest injustice!
What kind of rights in this case is all about? Issue as some made product and receive dividends from a grant work by modders?:O: No doubt about it - very clever!:know: We say - "insolence - the second happiness!"
Suppose first that ubisoft will make a quality product, and then demanding money and the right to food modders!:O:
Something like this. That is my opinion.

[Zedi]

Im thinking about setting up a mission in SH campaign where you have to hunt down a passenger ship full with politicians and lawyers. I suppose nobody will have anything against such a mission.

Sorry for offtopic.

Hey King,

yes the text is in german...an english version will follow.

To shot torpedoes you have to activate the tube control panel.

in the Stations Periscope, Obs Scope and Uzo you have to Click the buttun in the lower right.

there are three of them. it's the third vom the rigth. Then a panel will slide in.

in this panel there are two switches for each tube. the left one is to flood the tube an the right one is to open the tube.

It's still workin in a flat style. In the future it will work with sond, blinking lamps and a delay until the tube is flodded. YOu can not open a tube, when the tube is not flodded.

as dr jones mentioned earlier, make sure you first flood the tubes- only then wull you be able to open the tube and thus fire a torpedo

Hi. I have tested your mod and everything works great, except for one small little thing; my AOB wheel in the TDC is dead locked, and even if I set the TDC to on/manual I can't turn it, does anyone know why?

Btw, thanks to all you modders for your great work! :DL

EDIT:
Oh sorry, it's the target-bearing-wheel that doesn't turn, but it's not too much of a problem because it seems to change when turning the attack periscope or UZO. It doesn't change visually when I turn the scope, but the firing angle seems to turn, so I guess it works.

Hey Guys

i got it working.
I created a new clock wich can be toggled between 3 Types.

Just click in the middle of the dials an you switch the type of clock.
in the upper left and rigth of the toggle button for starting and stopping the clock there are the draggable areas.

Here are the three types.

i got the first chrono runnig and the others are still to add in the dials.cfg.

the quality of the clocks will also be fixed.

i banned the stock clock out of view. So the Clock will only be shown if you want it to be shown.

I am assured, Your interface (after a while) will occupy Favourable position among fans SH5.
Very much You I ask. Do not complicate the interface abundance of options as at TDW_NewUIs.:O: It is necessary convenient (Intuitively-clear) and realistic-historical.
To You it is necessary, separate Mega-mod.

From the bottom of the heart I wish Good luck!!!:salute:

Found error in NOL_T3Cimmaron.cfg that causes CTD in Museum and does not allow the T3 Tanker to load in game.
The NOL_T3Cimmaron.cfg file was changed by this MOD.

You have:
3DModelFileName=data/Sea/NOL_T3Cimmaron/NOL_T3Cimmaron
Should be:
3DModelFileName=data/Sea/NOL_T3Cimmaron/NOL_T03

When tracking down the above issue, I also found another stock Roster CFG error for this boat as well.

can anyone tell me how to close the AOBF wheel after it is opened in the attack or observation periscopes??

[uekel]

Hmm... I know that problem! :D It´s one click:

[GhengasCon]

SWEET!!!!...was driving me nuts!...Thanks UeKel!

[GhengasCon]

Ok...still have one more problem...I love the UI but whenever i switch to the AOBF in the attack or Obs. periscope I cannot close it. The AOBF wheel is so big the knob to close it with is hidden behind the 3 buttons. I know this has something to do with screen resolution. I tried the Makman 16:9 resolution fix ( I have a laptop with wide screen) but no luck. any suggestions or work arounds?

Hey GhengasCon....thanks to point me to it.

I know there are still a lot of points to fix...i'am still thinking about solution, that the AOBF is sizing automatic relative to the soulution you play SH5.

Please tell me all the things wich are still not working. I hope i can get back to it in my 3 weeks xmas vacation to keep on working on it....

In most cases is it [.] on the NumPad. (With [F1] you see the key mapping.) Perhaps it is sufficient to to reach the knob.

Hi Mate, a quick and easy fix for the problem would be to move the Page_layout and Page_Default_Hud lower in the page (menu_1024_768.ini) order so they are below the Page_Attacksope, Page_ObsScope that way the RAOBF will be on top of the OrderBar instead of below it. :up:

For example here is mine from Ui_boat


45=3F;Page layout
46=0A;Page Default Hud
47=3B;Page TDC
48=42;Page PositionKeeper
49=27;Page binocular
50=28;Page UZO
51=2B;Page obs periscope
52=26;Page attack periscope
53=07;Page Attack Periscope 2


Another solution would be to make the close button transparent and place it in the center of the scope, that way its activated by clicking within the scope to close the RAOBF. :up::up:

p.s. How far is yours sh3 project????

[reaper7]

You're welcome my friend, just happy to share the knowledge. Even though I've gone back to SH3 still like to see SH5 go as far as it can for all to enjoy. :up:
And being a huge fan of Makman's UI I'm glad to see you getting closer and closer to bringing it to Sh5.

Some very Interesting things happening with our Sh3 Project - stuff previously Impossible.
Check out the vids on our website http://www.u-boot-hahd.com/video.html
Some Interesting new feature requested for years :D And now working within Sh3.
Dragable and clickable Stopwatches (Just like in Sh5)
Impact Angle Dial (Coded In all SH series except Sh3 - very strange omission :06:)
Working U-Jadg Stophur (Unavailable anywhere else - full 100sec revolution)
Thanks for asking :up:

fantastic UI mod :rock:

I just have one small problem my uboat is sitting in Charleston Harbor USA at periscope depth trying to take photos as I have to recon the harbor, but when I target a ship no photo button shows up. Is there a key I have to press or something. :hmmm:

edit: Nevermind, I surfaced and was able to take photo with UZO

Even though you were able to take photo using Uzo this is still a bug.
The Take Photo function is only supposed to work from Periscope.

You can also edit your data\CFG\Commands.cfg and bind a key to WP_Take_Photo.
Myself, I use CTRL-P.
[Cmd350]
Name=WP_Take_photo
Contexts=1
Key0=0x50,c,"CTRL + P"

Hey @ all,

just used the time to play a little bit with XML Files.

Now i got it working that Map Options for Example can be changed on the fly and be saved in an XML File so that the own Choice of Map Options are saved permanent.

For that i've created also dll Files written in CSharp to get this working.

The next Step i'am working on, is an Separate XML only for Soundfiles to override the Problems with the sdl file. Here you can also define soundfiles, giving them a name and adjust a soundlevel...

It's just a little step but a step in the correct way i think....

These Soundfiles can also be played with a separte dll

Further informations will follow

Thank you @all

@Stormy: Yes the Radio mod will be included. I got the permission from tdw.

@thebeast: thank for your offer. i will let you know if there is something.

As Illystrator told one time...there has to be a new mega mod package wich is suitable for magui.

the thing is, we should try to combine the well known enviroment mods, interiormods and so on not binded only to magui, so it can be suitable for every interface mod...of course not without the permission of the former contructors of the single mods....
