Ok.. So after a long time of frustration, I finally see a major mod download.. At least a download with many mods included in 1..

but I think something is wrong..

I installed the game.

Patched the game,

Loaded it, made sure its working.

Downloaded this

with this link
Download: MMM v0.5 AIO by pedrobas

I installed generic mod enabler in C:/ubisoft/sh5

4 links were downloaded from that mod, one was an application and I installed it into the mod folder of sh5

I then enabled it, so it looks like this

I then reloaded the game and started a new career..

but something doesn't seem right, nothing really looks different at all..


Where did I go wrong?

THANKS

ok... I'm going to try the separate parts download instead of the 1.

I realized I installed with english and it says to install in german to get the sounds to work..

Just uninstalled and reinstalling in German..

Hard to read though

ooops never mind.. just realized I had to do a custom install, with English Text and german voices..

Ok install is on its way, then in order I will enable these mods

MMM P1 Dynamic Environment
MMM P2 Graphics FX IRAI
MMM P3 TDW UI
MMM P4 Sounds Tweaked SDBSM part1
MMM P4 Sounds Tweaked SDBSM Part2

Sounds about right?

Then start a new career?

Thanks

Hi Fast Fed
When you say that you started a new career, you mean without the tutorial mission?! Because, the mods will not work with the tutorial mission. You install the mods after mission 1 (the mission where you watch the captain talk).


ahhhh ok..

So I should Start a new career, go through the silly tutorial, then after I get back to dock, save the game, exit, enable mods and reload? Thanks

ok, I think I got it going.. Thanks!

Question now..

How do I use auto targeting? it seems to shoot the torpedo towards the target but misses by just a little bit.. It's as if its not judging the position the ship WILL be, rather its just shooting WHERE it is..

Thanks

No need to run through the tutorial again if indeed you have done it before. However if you have never played the tutorial since installing you must to unlock all game features. Sober has a thread on this on how to get through the mission without messing about.

I target manually myself but if I remember correctly you need to lock target with the space bar. Make sure TDC is off and ID the ship. Then unlock the scope to aim at any part of ship. There is a nice thread on this too but I can't find it right now.

What a bummer.. This is seriously a game crasher, no pun..

My torpedoes just shoot straight.. WTF.. I tried everything.. hit the spacebar and the yellow arrow got selected under the ship..
I made sure TDC was off, I told the weapon officer to get a solution, I even clicked to get target speed.

They just shoot straight..

Where am I going wrong?

Nevermind.. I'm speaking to soon..

Realized it takes time to get a solution.. Ok, I actually like that! used to SHIII which takes the click of a button!

Very cool actually

ok.. so im finally getting into this game.. after being 1st in line (lol) to buy this at 50 bucks I was pissed to say the least..

thank you to the modders.. I love that all in one mod.. so far I'm loving this.l.

Suck about 5 merchants on my first run out and had to evade a horribly commanded escort :)

that being said, I also love this automation thing.. the harbor pilot is awesome.. I'm on my way into the canal of kiel but we have a problem..

My c02 levels are still increasing!!! WTF!!

I though this was a sh4 issue..

I just saved and quit for now, but would like to know how to fix this as when I get back to my mission I will die, I'm already at 89% and not even 1/4 of the way into the canal..

Thanks

Are you sure you are looking at the CO2 gauge? By default the HUD gauge automatically shows fuel level when on the surface. Even if you select another gauge with the mouse a few moments later it goes back to show fuel. When submerge it show battery by default. To see all readings at once press H on the keyboard to open subsystem report.

This is an old bug that still has not been fixed.
