BTW, for those who downloaded my tool kit, I've just found that the Word template document no longer had a macro attached. Not sure why, luckily I had posted the macro on another thread so here it is:

All you need to do is create a form with a textbox (txtPage) and a button (btnRenumber). This is all the code you need:

Quote:

Private Sub btnRenumber_Click()
Dim iItem As Integer
Dim myRange As Range
If txtPage.Value = vbNullString Then
MsgBox "You must enter the Menu Page"
ElseIf Application.Documents.Count < 1 Then
MsgBox "No document Opened"
Else
iItem = 1
Set myRange = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=0, End:=ActiveDocument.Content.End)
myRange.Select
With Selection.Find
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindStop
.Text = "[" + txtPage.Value + " I"
Do While .Execute
Selection.Extend
Selection.Extend
Selection.Extend
Selection.TypeText Text:="[" + UCase(txtPage.Value) + " I" + CStr(iItem) + "]"
iItem = iItem + 1
Set myRange = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=Selection.End, End:=ActiveDocument.Content.End)
myRange.Select
Loop
End With
End If
End Sub
To use it, just type the name of the menu page you want to renumber. For example: G26. Note that you must make sure that all new items in that page begin with G26.

Good:

1. Salvo Selector fixed for the Type VII, thanks Kurtz for pointing that out
2. Added the missing Straight Leg dial label (Laufstrecke, hope I've spelled that right)
3. Added a red ring around the stadimeter button when the target is locked. Note that there is no Lock Button in this interface, you'll still have to use the L key when the periscope is on a ship to see this effect.
4. At request, I also made optional English labels (see pic)

All files were sent to Lurker a minute ago so expect to see these features in his next Omegu patch.

Cheers :salute:

Yes, it's from a type IX, don't worry, the Type VII will be ok now, I'm just to lazy to upload a new image on imageshack :D

karamazovnew, this is just gorgeous. To think that silly notepad interface could evolve into this is amazing. I also have to commend you on the docs you put together. First rate!

Wilcke 02-16-10 10:23 PM

Awesome work! Thank you!

No worries, there's more than enough goodness to tide me over in the current version.

Awesome interface and system. Loved OLCs GUI on SH3 and now got something similar into SH4. As I'm still newbie, would someone recommend me some other tools for like how to find correct way to target.. Etc. What other tools you use with this and OM (if any)?

You mean intercepting radio reports and hydrophone contacts? There are 2 awesome threads on the SH3 forum that deal with those, just do a proper search. Once you get into visual range, my documentation explains how to make a proper attack.

Here's what I use to intercept contacts:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=88961

As for hydrophone attacks, I never do them. The explained techniques rely on getting a very accurate bearing of a contact outside visual range, which i think was impossible in that era. What I usually do is just stop the boat and wait to see in which direction the enemy is going. I then surface and go to flank speed, leading it by 30 degrees or so. After a few minutes I dive again and check. Rinse and repeat. I usually end up either ahead of the target or behind it slightly.

Lurker has just posted Patch 5 for OMEGU. Get it while it's hot :yeah:

I assume another mod is required in order to use this one? I'm currently playing a good stock 1.5 U-boat campaign, and I don't really feel like restarting because of a mega-mod install.

If someone could fill me in on what's what, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Yes, to see this interface all you need to do is install OM+Omegu, the links are in the first post, as is a bit of documentation on how to use this interface. OM is the only mega-mod for SH4 UBM and it's much grander in scope than NYGM,GWX and TMO or RFB, simply because you get to fight the Atlantic war in a game made for the Pacific.
I also get attached to my careers but remember that while you're stuck in the Pacific, we all roam the Atlantic in Type VII's. And the Med, and the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific, and type II's, IX's, XXI's and so on. :salute:
