Default DECKS AWASH

Hi Guys
I have been watching Schaefers videos and I notice that he is using a DECKS AWASH icon with TDW TDC 7_4_2. Apart from the changing the patch in TDW'S GP what do I need to do to get this to work?

Sorted! You just select 8 metres from the advanced depth gauge.

In New UI's there is a specifical button for ordering deck awash depth, without having to select 8 meters each time. The button is hidden by default. You must activate it through TDW's Option Viewer/editor, for it to show up

Hi Gap
Thanks for the reply.
Can you point me in the right direction as to where I might find this TDW Option Viewer Editor please?

Hi Volodya61
Thanks for your information. Decks awash now on an icon.
Can the options file editor be changed from the mods file with TDW mod enabled or does the mod have to be disabled first through JSGME before you can make changes?
To set up a new change do you do it the same as setting it up for the first time, by this I mean do you still set the path to the menu.txt and the SH5 main folder?

Old thread, but ...

I can't find this options setting to reveal the button. Where is it in options and where is it on screen afterwards? Even though I order decks awash through speech recognition, it's good to know I can do it via mouse clicks as well when I want to.

Thanks ..

Make sure decksawash is enabled in both generic patcher then file viewer

Also stuff like using motors on surface have to be enabled in both too

Not many things do but several

Hope thats what you mean ?



ps : forgot to say where icon shows in newuis, it's below the surface icon (unless my brain cell is letting me down)
and with alternate shafts (wording ?) you get dots between diesel/batt/co2/air and heading bar

Thanks Defiance! Don't you sleep? You'll end up like Sjizzle who goes days without sleep. His eyes must look like this: . hehehehe

lol .. I was just coming back in to say that the icon is there now, but you were all over this post too quickly. Strange that the icon wasn't there when I wrote that post, but I just recycled the game to test a sound bite for levelling the boat and *poof*, there it was under "surface the boat", so maybe just activating decks awash in the options file was enough to do it. Me happy now.

I still have to do those independent controls patches. Will wait until I return to port so I don't screw things up. We don't need any more CTD problems.

Have a good one!
