map updates

hcs53 · 07-08-12, 04:15 PM

I have a question about map updates,I see only black lines for warships and merchant,not the normal markings.
At the start of the campagne everything was fine,but now I am in the middle of a convoy and only black lines

Can I do something about that?
It's a problem now to use the 3.15 rule.

mods are:Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157

Well, that the game is running in Program Files at all is a miracle. The usual method of installation is to create a Games folder on the drive and load it to that folder.

TMO will remove the stock map contacts. If you read the TMO documentation, it should tell you how to get them back again, or there is mod in the mod forum for SH4 that will restore them.

You may be out of range of the warships. just pop your periscope just above the surface and spin it around once. Your men will tell you if any warships are near by

3:15 is for u-boats and metric. If you're playing American and using imperial measurements it's 3:00.

I use metric

I disable the files ContLine.dds and DashLine.dds in TMO and SH4 and now I have the blue and black lines(not all black as before),but not the symbols of the ships on the navigation map.
I think I need a mod .

HOW CAN YOU PLAY AN AMERICAN BOAT AND USE...

Nah, just kidding. You have to use what you're comfortable with. I use the appropriate one for whichever side I'm playing, but I also don't do manual targeting. That's what I'm comfortable with.
