Flack cannon, help.
 
Every time I would shoot with the cannon cannon, i can't because when a wave hits the submarine, the crew abandons the cannon emplacements.
This is because the counter depth marks 8 meters below sea level, can I do something to stabilize this level and not having to order every second crew to get back to the cannon?

P.S. i'm a noob

I am not aware of a fix for the deck gun problem with the crew disappearing.
The sea does not have to be that rough for them to keep nipping off to change their socks.
It is quite understandable that the deck gun cannot be used in rough seas.

Ok, thank you; one last thing, why i no longer have the XO?

Hi Sf

Press the button near the nautical clock and you will see the XO icon there.

Hey when i used this UI, i believe that it caused my map to no longer display the speed of the target automatically with map contact on like in the vanilla game.

Since i have huge problems finding the speed of the target, can anyone tell me how do i make it tell me the speed automatically when i hover my mouse over the target instead of having to calculate it?

Hi KF

It is very easy to find the targets speed.
Bring up the stopwatch or use a kitchen timer.
The basis is you pause the game with the map opened wide so you can see the targets bow where you place a X mark on it and un-pause the game and start the stopwatch or timer.
After 3 minutes and 15 seconds you repeat the process pausing the game again.
With the compass measure the distance from X mark to X mark.
600metres = 6 knots 1200metres = 12 knots and so on.
If using the stopwatch you can always use a bit of TC rather than using real time.

Got it thanks :D

And i realised that i can also do the same by taking two range readings using the stadimeter and then asking the navigator or something to calculate the speed as well :P

Anyway, it turns out that speed calculations wasnt the problem.

I was simply using the wrong angle of bow. Though that a ship on my starboard meant that the AOB was also on the starboard side when it fact it was the opposite :P

Chances are you won't have a program dedicated to opening .py (Python) files like I do, so you'll get a dialog saying "Windows can't open this file:"

Choose "Select a program from a list of installed programs" then click OK.

From the "Open with" dialog, scroll down till you find "Notepad". Highlight it and click OK. Notepad will open Python files for you now.

Instructions and Examples for NewUI + TDC:

This UI mod has added in more features to Silent Hunter 5 than it shipped with! Dial based TDC, convoy and single merchant contact times on the map, numerous map assists, dragable charts, "Integrated Orders" officer command bar, fully customizable UI options and key bindings. It's also constantly being updated with even more options and features.

Using this mod will completely change how you play SH5. It even has options to use the familiar SH3 or SH4 interfaces!

The following link is a video walkthrough of how to install NewUI+TDC 3.0.0. Because of all the options some people were getting confused about how to install it, so here ya go:

How to Change UI Styles:

First step is to find the options file to edit it. You can find the file under C:\Ubisoft \ Silent Hunter 5 \ MODS \ NewUIs_TDC_2_5_0_ByTheDarkWraith \ data \ Scripts \ Menu and the file is called TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py

http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/5...ethefileis.jpg


Once the file is open you'll see some text like below. Just follow the instructions in blue to change to whatever style you'd like!

This is the default, SH5Enhanced style, no changes are needed:

If you wanted SH3Style:

http://img532.imageshack.us/img532/4036/sh3style.jpg

And if you wanted SH4Style:

http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/2334/sh4style.jpg

After making your changes, save the file, enable the mod and enjoy!

does anyone still have the file for the NewUI+TDC 3.0.0. thanks

Hi drronnie.

I've lost the plot.
What exactly are you trying to do.

Peter

drronnie 09-23-15 05:53 AM

Currently at have v1.15 installed so I wanted to find an UI mod which is compatible but I see there is no other way unless I patch up to 1.2
