If this is disabled in the options file, the info pop up is still active at game start.

I haven't been able to reproduce said problem. Can you give me some items that are exhibiting this behavior at game start?

I had filmed a "normal attack" I was going to put up as an example of how to do it. But during editing I realized I'd done some things wrong. Then I realized I did pretty much everything wrong. :timeout::haha:

I'll try to film something new using 3.1.0 once I figure out how to use it! :O:

briklebritt dials version
 
There is a spelling error on briklebritt's rudder dial (dials.dds), showing manufacturer name "HAGENUG", being briklebritt's initial version of that mod.
Briklebritt made a corrected version of dials.dds shortly afterwards showing the correct manufacturer name as "HAGENUK".:know:

I downloaded the correct (HAGENUK) version when it was still available standalone (seems to be discontinued), and now, each time the Multiple UIs mod is updated, I replace the typo dials.dds with the corrected one. And, at your rate of output, that's quite often.:03:

TDW, could you pls use the correct dials.dds in future updates to spare me the extra file fiddling each time, and everybody else would get it right,too?;)

If you don't have/can get hold of the correct file version, you could get it from me.

if you send me a link or the update I'll update the mod :up:

EDIT:

v3.1.1 includes the new Dials.dds with the fix.

so any major problems? I have one report of a crash via PM (a bad python error but not so sure I'm the cause of it). Work on the new version starts now with the items from post #2.

Not major, but I liked the idea of the log entries. I'm using the SH5 all option. The readme mentions add & edit buttons at bottom of page but I have no buttons.

I can highlight the log entries but that is it. Cannot change or write.

Ideas?

found some free video game recording software to use :rock: I recorded a video in mp4 format (1920 X 1200 resolution - .7z file size of 65Mb for 12 minutes and 36 seconds of video) of a submerged torp attack using v3.1.1. I found a bug in v3.1.0 that causes a python error if you access the nav map before accessing any of the scopes thus is why v3.1.1. I'll be releasing v3.1.1 here soon. The video is uploading now and I'll edit this post when it's ready for download :DL The video shows how to use the new SH3 style speed estimator and the new red buttons on the speed and AOB TDC dials for 'preserving' those values across stadimeter calls.

what version of the mod are you using? Can you post a screenshot showing that you're trying to edit/add entries so I can possibly see what's going on?

TheDarkWraith 06-26-10 09:03 PM

ok my post #2 that lists upcoming features, bugs, etc. now also has a videos section. I've added the submerged torp attack video link there and I'll make more videos and they will be posted at post #2. Here's the link to post #2: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...70&postcount=2

v3.1.1 uploading now.

Royale-Adio 06-26-10 09:04 PM

Just to be sure, I always have to manually set the speed right? Because on the dials it is always set to zero.

Sorry, n00b question... :oops:

yes, that is correct. I haven't found a way to set the TDC Speed dial via code yet so when the SH3 style speed estimator tells you the contacts speed in the messagebox put that value into the TDC speed dial. The video I made shows me doing this :yep:. Once I figure out how to change dials values via code it will open up a whole lot of opportunities :D

v3.1.1 released. This is a bugfix version for v3.1.0. See post #1 for details.

Royale-Adio 06-27-10 01:26 AM

But will it be possible one day to reintegrate the full periscope interface as in sh3/sh4?

PL_Andrev 06-27-10 02:44 AM

Great work DarkWright!
Thank for mod update and video.

One question: is possible to automatic turn on the clock if I start to determinate target speed? (Of course, clock should be turned off when speed is determinated).

heisig1958 06-27-10 03:52 AM

:yeah: Super DarkWright, Danke!:salute:

kylania 06-27-10 03:56 AM

In that video the standimeter was 300-400m off every measurement it seemed, and speed estimate varied widely from 5kts to 8kts! Plus there was an epic amount of changing dial values. :hmmm::timeout:

Think I'll stick to my ol' Fast 90 setup. heh
