That's not true :)

The difference between the three main dds compression formats is about RGB compression level and grey-scale depth of the alpha layer:

DX1 = 1:8 compression ratio, 1 bit alpha layer (B/W)
DX3 = 1:4 compression ratio, non-dithered 1 x 4 bit alpha layer (16 levels of grey)
DX5 = 1:4 compression ratio, dithered 6 x 4 bit alpha layers

See the following article for further detail:

If you want to be sure about compression level and mip levels of an eisting texture, I suggest you using the following simple tool: :up:

Thank you very much, gap.

I get an error 1721 (installer error) when I install the AMD app. Do you have the tool installed, gap? Could you check a file for me, please?

Sure, just tell me which one :up:

Thank you, gap, I will pm you the next minutes.

:salute:

Your pm box is full.

sorry, I have just made some space :up:

Answer received. Many thanks, gap. :sunny:

My pleasure. Keep us updated on your improvements of that graphic :up:

I'd like to assign hotkeys to "Estimate range to contact" and "Report fix via dead-reckoning". How would I do that?

I tried adding a hotkey in data/Cfg/Commands.cfg to

but when i press that, I get a precise distance ("Range to target is 2950 !") instead of the nice new rough estimate that i get, when i click the menus sonarman -> sonar -> estimate range to contact ("Sonar: Estimated contact range is 2700m").

So I guess, the Commands.cfg is the wrong place to put the hotkey.

And i don't have any idea where to put a hotkey for "Report fix via dead-reckoning" at all.

I use NewUI and RealNav Version 7.1.0

Is there afix for the Deck gun and this UI ever sicnei enabled this UI In calm seas my crew Won't Keep the damn deck gun manned makign the gun USELESS. it's as though depth Dection for thinking the U boat is surfaced is set to shallow so the crew keeps thinking the deck is A wash but it's not. Any sugestions?

Yes, do not use deck gun in the high seas...You don't wont your crew to be washed away from the deck...

In calm seas I mentioned in my post :) theres like almost no waves.. i can understand in high seas but this is like... theres no water washing up on my deck

I see then...Have you tried to use TDW options file editor, there is one options which should effect just what you ask(time delays tab, second line)?

I have the TDW patcher do you know the name of that because i checked through it the only thing that ithink could effect it is the " Enable decks awash" option and ive dissabled that.... just to see if it woudl help NO dice.. :(

No...Options file editor...not patcher...stand by for link...

@Dermeister

Go here - C:\Users\User\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\main.cfg
open this with notepad
look for and change to this :-


[DEVELOPING]
Modding=Yes
MenuEditor=no
DebugScripts=Yes

save and run game

Now when the freeze happens - you should see a script error window on your desktop - copy and paste it here for TDW to see:up:
