 Of course, you have to enable appropriate addon mod with your JSGME first since auto ID is a bit of cheat in essence.

EDIT: Press space again and turn off auto TDC. Then you will be able to see ship type since with auto TDC ON a ships type info is quite pointless because everything is already done for you. Experiment, explore, read, try and happy hunting!

I think a starting List for New Players would be nice to help with the maze of mod options out there. The LIST should Start with baby steps..then list in order some mods to activate to build up to full realism... I have TWO's loaded and really like it so far...The manual Nav and manual TDC should not be used for New Players (in the beginning) IMO... This way New players will be able to get their feet wet and get hooked. This is coming from a New players point of view. |

Just incase anyone wants to use auto tdc and also know the ship name in twos, you can do that by (below I copied from another thread)
To be able to freely turn on/off your TDC via the WO officer window in the periscope or UZO view, you must go in the OFEV (Option File Editor Viewer) , go in the XOTDC tab and change the last option to 'false'. when you want ship name, turn auto tdc off in xO and on when you want to shoot with auto tdc, turn it on OFEV How to use http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...&postcount=434 |

NAME!
I'm a new guy too.
Name? I just wish they'd get the type of ship right sometimes . Last night that guy says its a Merchant, then a capital ship, I sink it and then that guy tells me it was a passenger liner, it was Swedish, I saw the flag as it sank. Now I am a bad guy LOL
