When I give the order "periscope depth" the boat goes too deep so that I only see water.
Can I change that?
Also, the numbers around the sonar are difficult to read while the environment is good.

As for that about the sonar, mind posting a pic of what it is that your seeing, as far as I know, those numbers around the sonar are good. So not really understanding just what it is that you think is wrong with them there... :hmmm:

On posting that pic, (screenshot of the area in question :shucks:) can then take that image & use freely, a pic hosting site... Myself, I use snipboard.io as it is easy to use.

It will generate a link that you can then copy & paste in a reply back here to any issue or problem that you may run across when you do have that happen... such as, now. :up:

Not saying that you couldn't be having an issue, just can't tell just from a very brief, light on details comment there... is all. *nod*

Just as an aside when asking about issues that you think could be or are a problem, is usually best... to post about them, especially in the main thread for them... if it pertains to a mod mix, such as in the case here... with Bubblehead1980's TMOverhauled v2.5 Reworx.... just a strong suggestion only. :shucks:

Hope this helps... :shucks: :yep: :up:

yes, you can.
create a mod-tree for yourself under the MODS folder and copy \Data\Submarine\NSS{boat}\NSS{boat}.cfg into it.
use a plain text editor to edit the CFG file. Something like Notepad or Notepad++.
find the line that reads PeriscopeDepth=
enter a numeric value in METERS. for example, if you want PD to be 60 feet you enter 18.288.
save the CFG file and apply it using JSGME.
++
as M.M. pointed out the PD used in the mega-mod is supposed to keep your boat below the wavetops, so, if you decide to change your PD, be aware of that.

good luck, Herr Kaleun.

Yeah, sometimes a mod not in a right placement on your install, can & does cause issues.

The craziness is... another can use that same lineup that caused you issues... & yet, nothing of the trouble you faced, will occur... yet will for you. Go figure... :hmmm: :doh:

Think it comes down to it being a matter of all the different computers & the myriad of different peripheral's stuffed into them... but, that is just My own WAG on that, though... :yep: :shucks:

Any who... glad you were able to get everything sorted out &.... ship shape... :D :up:

Fair winds, smooth seas &... Good huntin', skipper. :arrgh!:

Depends on the sub you are playing. I'm playing a Sargo class and had to edit the PD setting to 54ft. Easy fix.
