Hi,
I followed your tutorial "Beginners Mod List Including Essential Mods" to great effect. But there is one more thing missing I think. For the R.E.M mod you say that you can leave out "No Hyd on surface" mod if you don't feel like it. But if you do it is essential to enable Folder 1 or Folder 2 mods (R.E.M. - hydrophone mute for player fix), otherwise the hydrophone doesn't seem to work properly. There were no contacts on the hydrophone (sound and text), only contacts on map sometimes. At least that was the case for me. Might be worth adding that info. |
Hi Havner
Thanks for the information. I have removed that sentence it. Peter |

Hi Havner
I have never seen either of these other options being used. This is quite likely because later mods no longer require their use. R.E.M goes back to 2013 and a lot has happened since. I have tried to keep things simple as it is aimed at someone possibly wanting to try mods for the first time. Options are ok, but they can also lead to confusion unless they are understood. I have never had the need to use either of them while I have been playing SH5. Peter |

TDW’s Options File Editor Viewer Making Changes Using The Py File
TDW’s Options File Editor Viewer (OFEV) Making Changes Using The Py File.
With this method you do not need to disable any mods in JSGME. The Py file is laid out in the same sequence as you are used to seeing the difference being it contains text and numerals. Each Patch can be easily identified from the text between the # marks. Each Option here is the same Option as seen in the OFEV. Changes are made by changing > True to False and > False to True. Erase the current setting and type in the new one. Numerical changes are made by choosing a setting from the Options showing. Here you will see Default, Minimum, Maximum depending on the patch. Extreme caution should be observed when making any changes. Complicated patches like the 'Ships Journal' should not be attempted here as changes are needed to be made to other files outside of the OFEV. Common sense should be used to only make changes to patches that are easily understood what the result of any change means. If in doubt then revert to disabling the mods and make the change by launching the OFEV. Picture 1 > Shows the OFEV path to the py file. https://s29.postimg.org/ocd9ibutj/1_py_Path.jpghttps://s14.postimg.cc/843fakyv5/1_py_Path.jpg Picture 2 >This is the view when the py file is opened. https://s27.postimg.org/ip5fa8fdv/2_py_opend.jpghttps://s14.postimg.cc/cd85crhk1/2_py_opend.jpg When changes have been completed. Go To > File Select > Save Exit. It is good practice at this time to make a copy of the py file as a backup. Your OFEV should now be showing the changes you made. |
How To Convert Kilometres To Knots.
How To Convert Kilometres To Knots.
Example > Ship Travels 240 metres in 1 minute. Calculation > 240 Metres x 60 Minutes in an hour = 14,400 Metres = 14.4km. To Convert Kilometres Per Hour (KPH) to Knots divide by 1.85 14,400/1000 = 14.40/1.85 = 7,783 or 7.8 knots = 8 Knot. |
How To Calculate A Targets Speed By Using The Periscope Cross Hairs.
How To Calculate A Targets Speed By Using The Periscope Cross Hairs.
Count the number of Seconds it takes for the > Targets Bow and Stern to pass across the > Periscope Cross Hair. Time taken = metres per second. Multiply the number of seconds taken by 3,600 (number of seconds in an hour) Divide the total by 1.85 (To convert KPH to Knots) Length of the Target is needed from the Recognition Manual. Target > Small Passenger Type Merchant 1,719 tonnes. Length > 80.0 metres. Number of seconds taken > 25. Length 80.0 divided by 25 seconds = 3.20 metres per second. 3.20 metres per second x 3,600 seconds in an hour = 11,520 metres/1000 = (11.52km). 11,52km divide by 1.85 to convert Kilometres Per Hour (KPH) to Knots = 6.22, or 6 knots. Target is traveling at approximately 6 knots. |

silentotto > Play Any Of The Open Horizon Campaigns
Last updated 14th May 2018
silentotto > Play Any Of The Open Horizon Campaigns 'silentotto' gives you the option to play any of the Open Horizons Campaigns You must start a New Career. You cannot transfer your old crews abilities or keep any promotion points. Any Campaign you select starts with a novice crew. If you select for instance a 1943 Campaign your inexperienced crew will be up against a much more experienced enemy until they have completed some of the missions. Your selected Campaign will end and the next Campaign will start at the appropriate date and time. When you start a New Career you see the default Campaign 'Coastal Waters'. https://s7.postimg.cc/45w60y8zv/New_Career_image.jpg To select any Campaign just type in silentotto in the area where you see my mouse curser. https://s7.postimg.cc/k2uxxdyqj/silentotto_2.jpg You then see all the Open Horizon Campaigns. Select your realism setting. Click on the Campaign you wish to use. Press Start Game. Remember to do your bunker save before starting the first mission. |

A much easier way to tell apart the VIIA and VIIB (especially as the game makes it hard to see any detail of the schematics in the sub info screen and if you have external cam disabled) is that the VIIB holds 14 total torpedoes (2 in external reserve), while the VIIA only holds 11. (and has no external reserve) |
