Help Needed Please

Have install Twos as directed by youtube video supplied.
also install a few extra mods as suggested.
Then installed TDW OptionsFileEditorViewer v1.0.32.0 as directed.

My Mod List

The Wolves of Steel 1.04
The Wolves of Steel 1.04 - Patch 13
The Wolves of Steel - 16x9 Resolution Patch
nVidia missing lights
DeckKannon
sobers 7A_B deck crew moved for Shaefer SH5
The Wolves of Steel - Wind & Smoke addon
stoianm BrighterNights modv1

I need some help on three things.

1st is I cant see **** at night. I know my eyes aren't the best but even with my nose against the screen I still cant see.
I thought stoianm BrighterNights modv1 was meant to improve this.

2nd Would like to replace and relocate my dials to the rectangle ones I used years ago and also see used on youtube with other people using the TWOS mod.

3rd I know there has been a lot of work gone into making this game realistic and I appreciate but I am learning and would love to see my own sub location and the ships I am hunting.

Screen shot of my SH5. (Will say that it isn't as dark as the pic but not much better.)

Thanks in advance and also to the people that has made this game and site as special as they are.

Regards
Derick

Hi DB

Code:

The Wolves of Steel - Wind & Smoke addon

This is already included in patch13.

If you are not using real navigation you should see your sub on the map.
If you cannot see other ships on the map then you need to look in the game play settings from options showing on the main menu.
"No map contact update" should not be ticked.

As for the darkness you could have a look at the graphics gamma settings and give it a tweak.

Thanks again guys!
Have made some of your recommendations and no change.
Have installed as per YouTube video link on the Twos page.
Didn't mention the part were you change the code to completed tutorial
True or False.
So I am doing the tutorial.
Does option file editor work in the tutorial ?
And what is the quickest way to now if it is working ?

Thanks
