Enigma Codebook

[KptnLt Eric Karle]

Hi all, I've not been around for quite a while but just got back to playing SHIII last night. This may have been mentioned before and if it has them accept my apologies but in case it hasn't. I found this link to a piece of software that creates a codebook for various versions of Enigma simulators found at the same site as this link. The codebooks can be made for one day, a month or a year. As an added immersion feature I thought some of you guys might be interested.

I haven't yet tried the codebook software myself but I have used the Enigma simulator and it is very good :up:

Hey Gizzmoe, good to be back. Got a lot of catch-up reading to do.

It's in German the titles across the top when you create the code but should be able to work it out nice link :up: and Hello and welcome back :D

Ok, I've now tried the Codebook software and it does exactly what it says on the tin. You can create twelve monthly codesheets for either the 3-rotor Wehrmacht/Luftwaffa model or the 3/4 rotor M4 Kriegsmarine version the monthly sheets are saved as a text file containing random UKW(reflectors) Walzenlage(rotors) Ringstellung(rotor settings) and Steckerverbindungun (plugboard combinations) the enigma simulator on the same site is excellent. It is such a shame that something like this wasn't/couldn't be included in the sim. I'm definately going to include some coded traffic in my game.

Worked what you said great just two things what dose Tag & Kenngruppen stand for?

[KptnLt Eric Karle]

Thanks for the welcome back STEED :up:

Tag is the day of the month, Kenngruppen is only on the Wehrmacht/Luftwaffa machine and it doesn't mention in the instructions how it was used :doh: Try using the M4 Kriegsmarine version

Thanks for your help KptnLt Eric Karle :up: :up:

Prove it :-j
Hang on I shall send a email if it's your website just post the numbers back here.

Just done it now to sit back for the proof. :yep:

[defcom]

Where is the mail? did you use dr.defcom(AT)telenet.be ??? :hmm:

[defcom]

btw, i'm from europe, it's 8 pm here at this moment. You could also use my message form on the website (menu send message)

On your site in contact us. in the Send a message

[defcom]

Yep, it automatically send the mail to me. Could also use the normal mail adres.

[defcom]

Still waiting on your numbers...having problems??? :D

[defcom]

hey steed, still Alive? Did you enter a valid mail adress on the 'send message?' if not, thi gci bin doesn't accept the message. You cold use my normal mail adress, displayed on the main page :know:

[STEED]

YES

[defcom]

Are you pulling my leg with that 'prove it' and sending a message? :cry: I tought you were happy to use my software :shifty:

[STEED]

What did you find

[defcom]

Well, you didn't send anything! At lest it didn't arrive. Try sending through normal mail.

[STEED]

I tell you what I shall go to your Guest book how about that

[defcom]

Anyone can read that,. Didn't you want a proof that it's me? Haha, actually funny, I have to prove myself. You should be ashamed, using me freeware stuff, and not believing me :yep:

[defcom]

Ha, a proof! As webmaster, i can see a guestbook visit, where you're from. Mind if I name the town (capital), or keep it private?

oh ye 852454

[STEED]

OK YOU HAVE PROVED YOURSELF :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[defcom]

Aha, another proof: I just deleted your secret numbers from my guestbook page. (something no one else can :up: :-j :-j :-j

[defcom]

No serious now, if you have any question, or an idea to improve the sim or the codebook, your suggestions are always welcome. I'm planning to create Kurzsignale codebooks. Unfortunally, I need lots of tactical standart quotations like 'enemy contact' , 'airplain spotted', 'refueling at grid..." etc.

If you have other things you would like to see created, fire away. btw, the Kenngruppen were used for start settings in some procedures, and key identification in others. Many different uses of them in different parts of the German Forces

[STEED]

I just gone back and said somthing nice in your guestbook page


everone vist the link if your into the Enigma

Thanks! Oeps, was to fast on the respons (see previouse message)

[STEED]

Talk about spam OK :up:

[defcom]

Haha, thanks for the advertising, but I have already more than enough hits om that site. Hope I don't get into trouble. Trippled my visit stats since I was mentioned last week in Slashdot. Unbelievable that such an old machine is still that popular :D

[defcom]

What's up with the photo under my name. I'm constantly changing face. Must say, I've looked nicer :D Do you get that from a moderator that judges your bla bla or so?

It's due to the number of post you post :up:

[defcom]

Aha! I must stop talking, i'm getting more ugle with each new message :-j Surf to my photo gallery for a real pic of this old chap ;)

[KptnLt Eric Karle]

Hey defcom, just wanted to say how much I like your software. Great job man, I really like it. Just wish they had implemented something like this in the sim :up: :up: :up:

[defcom]

Thanks. If I knew something about the code behind SH3, I would have made such add. Should start a pettition to the maker of SH3, to add a good Enigma sim. Maybe in SH4... :-?
