Diving Problem.

[Pranne]

Hello,

i have now SH5 with TWoS and i have a massive Problem to get this Thing under Control while diving.

First, i cannot use crash dive manover because when it starts to dive, than i can not hold it.

Second, its hard to Change Depth f.e. from 80-40 meters---it goes trough and to periscope Depth.

Any ideas? This Problem clearly kills the fun.

Hi P
Use the shortcut key "A" to control depth.
There are 2 vertical depth gauges in the Advanced SH5 GUI
Pressing X 5 switches between the two gauges.




Selecting a comfortable depth should see the boat respond to that ordered depth as long as the boat is not damaged and auto dive planes is used.
Crash Ddive IIRC is pre-selected to 70 meters.

I assume that you have enabled the gps snapshot file in the Generic Patcher from the installing instructions?

To crash dive in shallow water, after clicking the crash dive icon, i usually set speed to slow immediately after submerging, and jump on the depth gauge to set new depth according to what you have under keel
If you keep full speed, sub is diving to quick for fine control.

Quite easy to control the dive; it’s working in any SH btw...

That´s the way! I use it with SH3 style GUI.

Crash dive with TWoS works well. Going to preset 70 mts, at flank speed and the boat stabilizes automatically.

Hello, yes i used this gauges to set the Depth.

About this patcher, what is he doing?

Redone that with him today, maybe i have forgot to choose "RESTORE SNAPSHOT".

Thank you all by the way.

You NEED to restore the snapshot....

BTW, I use the SH3 style GUI (changeable trough OFEV; you should have an icon on your desktop for it).

SH5 is difficult to manage at depths > 160 mts. Change to manual dive planes, use speed, and pilot the sub yourself. Your crew is very inept to mantain those dephts...

Good luck and be more agressive!
