I have also edited the Data/Menu/en_menu.txt to substitute the various English language labelling with authentic German terminology - there was a mod for this but it gets overwritten by the 'V16B1' patch and the'GWX3_Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B' so I have edited it manually - it never seemed quite right to have English labelling in a German boat.And now for my next patrol . . . |
If h.sie's and Stiebler's patches are overwriting en_menu.txt, then you have not installed either of the patchers properly. If you follow the instructions, the additional entries for the patchers are added to the en_menu.txt file after all other mods have been activated with JSGME. Then the V16B1 and Stiebler patch mods are enabled LAST. So the en_menu.txt file is just the version of that file which was written in by the last mod activated, plus the additions made for V16B1 and Stiebler, which won't affect anything else. Follow the instructions provided and there will be no need for additional editing.
GWX Integrated Orders overwrites menu_1024_768.ini. If you install it literally "as a final mod" - after Stiebler's patch, it will overwrite the Stiebler version of menu_1024_768.ini and "break" the mod. As with en_menu.txt, you should make the additions to menu_1024_768,ini required by the Stiebler patch after all other mods have been activated. Otherwise, things will not work as they should.
The Weather Meter is supposed to tell you the weather conditions before you surface. IIRC, you don't get weather reports when there is no watch crew topside (like when you are submerged). The Weather Meter is not for everyone. I personally find it too God-like. YMMV.
