[QUOTE=Sjizzle;2391564]Thank you that Thread was helpfull! :)

Maybe I'm just dense?
 

I am having trouble understanding and getting to function the independent engine controls. I have enabled it in the patcher and the option file editor.
I have also edited the PY script to True for the hotkey " I " by hand. Now I am not really sure how all of this works and I could'nt find anything in any read-me or by searching in the forum so could somebody please be so kind as to give me a rundown on how this works and how to implament this option. I am not having trouble with any other option or patch, just this one. I am running TWOS and that is it.

When using the option editor it would'nt allow mw to enable the hot key so I went in a manually changed it myself to true. Also In the notes for the patch it say that it can only be used via scripting. What does that mean? Also, is this a file path
Game.SubmarineCommands.ExecuteCommand( "Port_engine_only" ). Do I have to manually input this into a file?

I have installed SH5 and updated to 1.2.

I have now installed and ran the Generic file patcher. What I cannot seem to find is a Noobs list of with patches to enable.

Any recommendations?

60 m/s wind patch question
 

I just enabled this patch. Haven't tried it yet, and now I read that you have to enable a file by hand? Is this true? If so what file, and how? Or did I read that wrong in TDW's patch list?

This patch, which short name is known as TDW Generic Patcher, is a MUST-HAVE for whatever version of SH5 you play. It will correct approx. 60 game-breaking bugs.
This patch is included in TWoS, with its newest version you don't have to bother anymore, it will be installed automatically.
And in my humble opinion, unless you are an *expert* in SH5, you should not play anything else than TWoS. For myself, I did play the vanilla game including this patch, plus other TheDarkWraith's mod series for SH5, but the playing result of such a corrected vanilla game is still *far inferior* to TWoS, especially for the in-sub visuals, unrealistic maps, stupid needed tonnage performances in your missions, reduced Automation features etc, etc. Just forget it.

That said, to answer your question: the exact HowTo for installing this patch is included in the TWoS thread, but I don't know if it's still there, because Vecko has automated the process. However read it carefully if you install by hand, and read an entire novel if you have the Steam version of the game :)
If you happen to have the Steam version of SH5, then *by all means* make a fresh install of SH5, update it to 1.2 and install the newest TWoS, you save a lot of time. In this case I also advice you to start a fresh career, do not use your old saves.
