It's small, but it's still a mod....right?
I don't mind using manual TDC, but I do miss my ship-id sidekick WO.
So I came up with the following solution:
Edit Ordersbar.cfg
(...\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Data\Menu\cfg\ordersbar.cfg)
Edited the three lines in the middle (started with ;Button7Commandxxxx)....like this:
.......
;Button6Command=Lower_whole_obs_periscope
;Button6IconRowColumn=3,6
;Button6Tooltip=5627
Button8Command=WP_Identify_target
Button8IconRowColumn=3,7
Button8Tooltip=ID Target
Button5Command=Recognition_manual
Button5CommandToCheckIfIsEnabled=Is_AnyPeriscope_c amera_station_Active
Button5IconRowColumn=3,8
Button5Tooltip=5629
........
This gives you a button in periscope and UZO view, that makes the WO ID-ships for you just like in SH3.
The icon used is intended for the not so implemented WO_calculate_solution function. (Can be edited in ...\Data\Menu\Gui\Layout\hud.dds).
PS
If you would like to assign a key to this command; edit command.cfg like this.
[Cmd343]
Name=WP_Identify_target
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F130002
Str=1073
Key0=0x49,Cs,"SHIFT I"
Now there's just 999 things to fix, then SH4 will be as good as GWX-SH3.......
