Hi TheDarkWraith!
Very often when working with the periscope has begun to emerge such an error.

This can happen at any time: just when you hover on a target when calculating the distance to the target, or at any other time

Had a CTD during one of the tutorials with the latest version. This was during the Automation Tutorial.

I'll post my mod load-out a little later, I am not at my gaming computer.

TDW,
How to import ship journal from 5.9.0 ver. to 6.3.4?
This is a problem with open saved journal at 6.3.4 and no possible to save it as new/upgraded.

Use the ship's journal editor app. When at the main menu select the journal you want to convert to new version from list of available journals. Click on journal selected in main menu to edit it with ship's journal editor app. Then click File-->Save and it will be saved as new version type.

MO includes all patches from this. If I update one then I turn around and issue an update tfor he other also. Hence is why MO is at patch 2 now and NewUIs is at patch 4.

Tell me what options (in regards to items that scroll) you have set, UI style, and exactly what actions you do to make this problem appear so I can try and duplicate it and see why it's doing what it's doing.

A program I've found useful when checking changes made to a file is WinMerge. With this you can edit two files simultaneously, e.g. two versions of the UserOptionsfile. It even highlights differences between the two files. You can download it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/winmerge/

Thanks TDW, I should have known...:salute:

TDW-Mega Mod - Periscope Spotted
 

Hi

I'm using the Mega mod patch 2 in my game, and I'm out on partrol. I've dived down and found a faint contact over 10k from my position, no other contact. worked out what general direction he's heading...

It's 5pm going dark, and the enviroment looks cloudy, though the weather report says clear. Surfaced the boat and headed off at full speed to flank the contact. Not long after setting off I noticed I have a radio message.

Periscope spotted... WHAT? I'm no where near him and I can't see him. How can he spot me? Can you explain how the periscope spotting works?

Within 10-15 minutes two planes were spotted so I crashed dived...

Confused on the spotting now...

Besides discouraging exit from the port - every ship in the port of reports seen a submarine.

...upoaded the current options file i have in use together with a screenshot of my current jsgme mod list. -> http://sahraniradio.armedassault.eu/...ons_stormy.zip

it`s occouring if i switch to external view using "F2" or use the ship external cams or the 2d map screen. Then everytime the essential gauges pop up, so i have to do a mouse over them, hiding them again.

My friend spotted a problem with Ship Journal:

Ship Journal (old / new) does not save messages excluded radio messages. When other messages are existed file is modified (data of save is changed) but no new messages are added. Creation a new journal does not help.

This problem was spotted when he tried to use old ship journal (from ver. 5.9.0) without journal app support. After that he created the new at new career, but it does not help - problem is still existed.
:hmmm:

Mod + patch = 6.3.4 ver used:

He tried to convert ship journal ver. 5.9.3 to new mod 6.3.4. After SH5 start the old-new journal is empty (one page) - no old entries. Saving the old journal erased the file - before saving my log had 228kB, after saving 22B and is empty.

He created new journal (in ver 6.3.4) and tried to open with JournalShipEditor - unfortunatelly its not possible - the error occured:

Hi TDW. I am having trouble with the latest version of your UI. 6.3.4. When I try to select a journal or tutorial the Left mouse button action is not detected. I can highlight the Journal or Tutorial I want but can not click on it. I have to revert to 5.9 to restore this function.

DIFFICULT
 

Hi TDW, my also have trouble with UI 6.3.4.
I made a new installation of SH5
Then i install only your MOD NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_ByTheDarkWraith and the patch 4.
At the first boat i sink, the application remains blocked, and i had to kill the process
I can not continue with this mod now
best regards

This is error report with ship's journal:
