Hello ! love the tutorial ! However.

I have a problem with the sextant in the game. When I try to measure altitude it does not work the way a sextant should work. Ie, I cannot reach the sun's border. The sextant does not move that high or the sun seems to near.

Difficult to explain really.

Any info on that ?

Ashikaga.

Thanks for these, I was going nuts trying to track them down.. but I noticed that both these links are slightly broken.. some poking around found that the correct links are:

Hey.. thanks! :Kaleun_Cheers:

HELLO!

I often use the 4 bearing method static version.

I have try to understand the moving version but I'm having some trouble.

Does anyone have a tuto video ingame?
It's often more easy to learn one method when someone do it ingame :yep:

The only one I'm aware of is makman94's series of 3 videos, titled "The Art of Hydrophone Hunting". You can see them here:

Thank you!! :Kaleun_Cheers:

I just have one question: on SH5, you can follow a target with a hydro when you are immersed, moving with the batteries?
Seems to me we have a lot of noise in the compartment

I'm not a SH5 player (SH3 is my preference) but it seems to me that's why the sonarman has headphones on.. :03:

If the noise bothers you, maybe there are mods that can turn down the noise levels, like there are for SH3.

Other than that, I wouldn't worry too much about it.. moving at speed degrades the signal more than the crew being their usual boisterous selves. Just slow down when you want to take a bearing, if you find it's having an adverse effect.

Ok.. I also have another video for you.. makman94's original video. The series I linked to you earlier is an improved do-over of the original, but you may want to watch it anyway.

It's titled "The Ultimate Hydrohunt Video", and can be found at Plissken_04's massive collection, here:

Alternatively, it can be found at YouTube, where OrthokentroN has broken it up into 5 sections and posted it on his channel here:

Also, I highly recommend jerm138's PDF titled "Sonar_Tracking", which is the best and clearest explanation of the principles behind both the stationary and moving 4 bearing methods that I've ever seen. The illustrations are clear and simple, as are the explanations.

It can be found here:

The thread where he released the document is also well worth a read:

Wow! Thanks! :Kaleun_Salute:

If i don't understand with all of that, it's i'm an incompetent :D
