Ships Journal

[Segwin]

Need help on where to edit the ships journal screen so that it has my name instead of U021 -TDW. Looked in players settings.cfg and via TDW py editor as well.

Thanks!

Open the UserOptions.py with Notepad and search for these entries:

#[OPTION]
#CATEGORY=Ships Journal
#TYPE=1
#DESCRIPTION=The Uboat's hull number (Note: you have to edit \Documents\SH5\data\cfg\playersettings.cfg file to make the uboat hull number there match the entry above. Find this line: UnitName=x-xxx and make it say the correct uboat hull number)
#VALUES=
#DEFAULT="U021"
#; ship's hull number
UboatHullNumber = "U-27" <<<----------------
...
#[OPTION]
#CATEGORY=Ships Journal
#TYPE=1
#DESCRIPTION=The Uboat's captain name
#VALUES=
#DEFAULT="TheDarkWraith"
#; ship's captain name
UboatCaptainName = "Schiffslogbuch" <<<-------------
...

Best regards,

Thanks mate.

Hmm... In the ships journal my U-Boat number is always U021. Is this correct? I put UboatCaptainName = "Segwin" & I even changed #DEFAULT="TheDarkWraith" to #DEFAULT="Segwin" but for some reason, even after deleting all my saved games, starting a new campaign I'm still getting U021 TheDark Wraith at the to of the ships journal when I open it up.

You should do it via OptionsFileEditorViewer located in \data\Applications\OptionsFileEditorViewer

Tried it both ways and I'm still getting the U021 TDW in the journal. :hmmm:

you need to edit this options with the mod being disabled.

Looking at the paths you have provided to the OptionsFileEditorViewer, you editing it with mod enabled.

I've got Sober's mod list running at present. What mod do I have to disable to change the journal?

Thanks.

now this actually looks right.

1) disable the NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_TheDarkWraith (or all mods. With sober's list it's easy to enable/disable mods)
2) if you are NOT using Real_Navigation: go to ...Silent Hunter 5 folder\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\ Applications\OptionsFileEditorViewer\OptionsFileEd itorViewer.exe and lunch it
3) point OptionsFileEditorViewer to Silent Hunter 5 folder\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\ Menu\menu.txt
4) point OptionsFileEditorViewer to Silent Hunter 5 folder\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\ Scripts\Menu\ for the Options.py file
5) edit....

if you ARE using Real_Navigation (as I just found out, which makes sense and I should have figured it out long ago) your paths should look smth like this:
Entry found: SH5InstallPath=C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5
Entry found: LastMenuTXT=C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_Real_Navigation\data\Menu\ menu.txt
Entry found: LastOptionsFilePath=C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scrip ts\Menu\
Entry found: LastChosenOptionsFilePath=C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scrip ts\Menu\
menu.txt path set to C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_1_0_Real_Navigation\data\Menu\ menu.txt

Main thing here is simple: you need to do all the settings BEFORE enabling the mods.

An exception: for the snorkel option, the mod must be enabled:up:
