Check the included documentation. You'll need to use the OptionsEditorViewer app located in \data\Applications

Word. Thanks.

Hello friendly ship mate :DL, I had that problem too. You have two options really: either install the mod and use the options editor the way I imagine TDW thought of, or use the mod dir and circumvent the sh5 exe check (see my post # 8921) then use the editor and lastly install the mod. :up:

The feature, when you get it to work, is really neat :woot:
:cool:

Edit: The thing with the second method is that you get your snorkel options saved if you disable and reenable the mod.

Hm. I'm still getting the CTD. I tried it twice and double checked everything to make sure. When I enabled it using GME and then open the options editor, the snorkel is already set to true by default. is it supposed to be like this? I wonder if there's another mod that I'm using that's causing it to crash.

Also, I tried it the way Trevally explained. No CTD but still no snorkal available.

To enable snorkel with this method you have to lure the options editor with a fake sh5.exe in the mod's main directory, so that the options for enabling snorkel can be visible and you don't have to install the mod first and change the installed files, and remove the fake file before you enable/install the mod with jsgme. :yawn:

If curious: create a new text file, rename it to sh5.exe and place it in the directory NewUIs_TDC_6_9_0_ByTheDarkWraith. Open OptionsFileEditorViewer.exe and set SH5 install dir to that directory. Set menu.txt and the options file appropriately (see the quoted post). Now, on the first tab called submarine and under 'snorkel', change False to True for any or all of the four submarine types listed. This changes the relevant files under the directory. Close the editor and remove the created fake file. Now, you can use jsgme to enable/install the changes and make snorkel available for the chosen subs. :O:

Hehe, thank you, guys, remembers me of the install of gwx to the MODS directory as I copied over the sh3.exe to my MODS directory.

:yeah:

Hi all,
I'm using Sober's Megamod list and can't get the UI to work at all. I have tried Trevally's troubleshoots in previous posts but it is still not coming up in game. Debug list below:

Don't start the game via launcher?

Conelrad 06-14-12 08:02 PM

Alright, I've tried installing UIs just by itself (no other mods, clean install of SH5) and still nothing. Just to clarify: Steam version of SH5, v1.2, edited both the .py file and using the editor application - no luck.

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: Never mind - I got it to work. Issue with subfolders. Check your subfolders! I only get a couple hours a day to mess around with mods, so was running short of patience.
Thanks for a great mod - it works wonders.

I returned from a patrol, tried installing the Snorkel while in bunker. Worked perfect.

I guess I'm a dummy. I should have guessed that in the first place. Can't wait to try it! And thanks for the hard work!!!!

First, I want to say that I really love this UI. It has all the tools that I could ever want to use. I am returning after about a 2 year break from game. I love to find that there are mods that make SH5 so much more enjoyable.

My question Im pretty much learning how to target with torpedoes again, and would love and tips. Also I noticed when I turn off TDC there are not numbers on the map for targetting.

Thanks all.:up:

ALARM! DIVE, DIVE!
 
I kind of know how he feels though. I'm far from new at any of this, yet I've been trawling round subsim for hours, looking for the right mods, the ones in the downloads section are Years old versions, with no links or help to get to the correct versions of mods. I'm so frustrated.
Even trying to find a download link for jgsme was so difficult.
I now have "NewUIs_TDC_6_7_0_TheDarkWraith" on my desktop, after hours of trying to find the current version, (is it?) which seems to be impossible, and now I find this Magnum Opus thing.

WTF! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH. <-- I cannot overstate that enough. I need to smoke a whole pack of cigarettes right now.

Please, someone please clarify, before I crash dive! All I want is to be able to actually steer my damn boot! I already hate UbiSoft enough for screwing SH5 up so bad.

Thanks for any help.

(p.s., please understand I am at the end of my tether, though I don't mean any ill feeling toward anyone here, or the people making this damn 'sim' actually usable. Just understand, the way the mods and downloads seem to be 'organised' here at subsim, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible for anyone who hasn't been on these forums for a while to figure out what, or where anything actually is. I have no clue what mod I need any more.)
