extract it to your MODS folder. Then you can enable/disable with JSGME as needed :up:

Obs. periscope
 

BTW.
Can anyone tellme why I can't raise/lower my obs periscope with this latest version?
Whenever I go to the obs periscope it simply raises to the top and there it stays...

I'm running the TDW NewUIs TDC 6.1.0

Hmmmm :hmmm:

How are you trying to raise/lower? I'm using the latest version (v6.2.0) and I can raise/lower using keyboard and also by using the icons in the top left of the scope screen (just tested in game)

I don't touch the commands.cfg file so there's no reason it shouldn't work with the keyboard. Sounds like a mod has overwritten the stock commands.cfg file to me (and changed the keys).

TDW i have just went a patrol with 6.2.0. when i report patrol there is no reply to me although 'radio message recieved' written there. is it normal ?

is normal. There is a random function that picks what message BDU responds back to you. If it picks a blank one then BDU had nothing to say to you :DL

Notice that the stock white one didn't appear :rock: Good riddens to it!!

You received a message, but you have to read it in Captain's Log.

Oh thank god. I thought I was going to go insane. I started to suspect those little reticules....:shifty:

Sober reported a bug in the new version. It's a valid bug and will affect everyone at some point in time therefore I have to release a patch (again). Sorry you all but this sometimes happens when you make something totally new :oops:

So in this coming patch I'm also going to disable the stock radio message received message that appears in the messagebox so that you don't get it immediately when you send a status report. I'll replace it with my own version.

I'm also looking at adding sound to the new radio message received (voice). Anyone know which file is responsible in the stock game for the radioman saying 'Radio message received' or something along those lines? :06:

Finally, are there any other bugs or things that need to be addressed with v6.2.0? :hmmm:

great work on the radio mod.....looking good
is there a way to change the colour of the nav
markers N1 ect to another colour,white blends
in with the land,also could you look into a bigger
version of the compass,with real nav its difficult
to set course on small compass.....thanks

I've got a great idea for the color of the nav map markers and supermarks...let you define the color and opacity! I should've done this the first time.......You'll define the color in the options file via the RGBA format (i.e. white with 50% opacity would be 0xFFFFFF7F. White with 100% opacity would be 0xFFFFFFFF)

EDIT:

patch 1 will include these changes:

# the super marks color and opacity (specified as RGBA format)
# default color is white 0xFFFFFF with 100% opacity FF
SuperMarksColor = 0xFFFFFFFF

# the navigation fixes color and opacity (specified as RGBA format)
# default color is white 0xFFFFFF with 100% opacity FF
NavFixesColor = 0xFFFFFFFF

patch 1 for v6.2.0 released. See post #1 for details :|\\

Thanks to sober (again) for being my bug reporter/bug fix tester :up:

The way it noticed this is was when going to the obs - it's rising all the way to the top automatically. After that there is no way to lower it.
But when joining the watch on deck I can raise/lower the obs. :hmmm:
I haven't messed around with the .cfg so I'll start by updating to your new v6.2.0.
If this doesn't do the trick I'll replace the .cfg with a fresh one.

The obs scope rises all the way when you click on it . Thats what it does . With the UI mod you click on the Snorkel depth button on the hud and use the obs scope for a quick pan for aircraft before surfacing . Its the attack scope that you can lower or raise from the con tower.

I have noticed, that with SOAN enabled it completely replaces XO dialog box. It is great though I am greatly missing XO icon. I feel lonely without my trusty XO - nobody advises me and support me now when preparing an attack. Can he be made back? Placed somewhere in SOAN if TDC is enabled? :)
