Do you have to set the features on the maps every time that you start playing? even if they were set before a save. I have tried a save at sea and in the pen also started a new Patrol and Career nothing seems to work.
Also is there a way of doing a screen shot while in the game? as all combinations of key presses takes a picture of the desktop and that is not what I want.

Ctrl+F8 for a screen shot....it will save to your SH5 root folder....

If you are running Mods....the TDW's UserOptionsFileEditor is a must have. You can edit most anything about the game set up including the TAI and Nav map. If you are Running "The Wolves of Steel" Mega mod...then its already included.

The "Bad" thing about SH5 is you must manually Mod it....the good thing is the Super Modders have made it pretty easy and straight forward for the most part.

Thanks for that, still left with the same questions only different:hmm2:
Where is the screenshot folder in the root?
And I have been through every option in the User option file editor and can't find anything about Tai or Nav map features.
I have got the same Mods running as you have. but not real navigation, (still a learner)

There is a tab for both TAI and Nav map in the UserOptionFileEditor from what I remember. Just to make sure we are on the same page......you are not talking about the Generic Patcher right?

The screenshots go to the SH5 folder.....there isn't a specific "screenshot" folder. Just scroll down near the bottom of the main SH5 folder and you should see a bitmap image..... see what I highlighted in the attached picture.

I use FRAPS to take screenshots, works great.
Just install fraps, set screenshot to any key you want, I use F10 and press it and it takes a screenshot that can be found in fraps folder.
