Hello,

i have now SH5 with TWoS and i have a massive Problem to get this Thing under Control while diving.

First, i cannot use crash dive manover because when it starts to dive, than i can not hold it.

Second, its hard to Change Depth f.e. from 80-40 meters---it goes trough and to periscope Depth.

Any ideas? This Problem clearly kills the fun.

Hi P
Use the shortcut key "A" to control depth.
There are 2 vertical depth gauges in the Advanced SH5 GUI
Pressing X 5 switches between the two gauges.

Selecting a comfortable depth should see the boat respond to that ordered depth as long as the boat is not damaged and auto dive planes is used.
Crash Ddive IIRC is pre-selected to 70 meters.

I assume that you have enabled the gps snapshot file in the Generic Patcher from the installing instructions?

To crash dive in shallow water, after clicking the crash dive icon, i usually set speed to slow immediately after submerging, and jump on the depth gauge to set new depth according to what you have under keel :yep:
If you keep full speed, sub is diving to quick for fine control.

Quite easy to control the dive; it’s working in any SH btw...

Hello, yes i used this gauges to set the Depth.

About this patcher, what is he doing?

Redone that with him today, maybe i have forgot to choose "RESTORE SNAPSHOT".

Thank you all by the way.

You NEED to restore the snapshot....

BTW, I use the SH3 style GUI (changeable trough OFEV; you should have an icon on your desktop for it).

SH5 is difficult to manage at depths > 160 mts. Change to manual dive planes, use speed, and pilot the sub yourself. Your crew is very inept to mantain those dephts...:03:

Good luck and be more agressive!

That´s the way! I use it with SH3 style GUI.

Crash dive with TWoS works well. Going to preset 70 mts, at flank speed and the boat stabilizes automatically.
