Surface ships cruising half underwater in scopes

Romb · 11-13-10, 12:13 PM

Hi, any way to fix this ? In external cam view the surface ships are fine, only in scope view these merchant is pretty funky (U-Boat wannabee

)

Could it be mod order (did quite some research to get order right)

Also the UZO magnification from 6x back to 1.5x very often doesn't work (Obs and Att scope are fine)

the UZO only has one scope power - 6x. It's a game 'hiccup' that it sometimes lets you choose a lower power than 6x.

Ah ok, thanks. So having UZO 1.5 is actually a bonus

Now only those semi-sub merchants

You should also update to UI v5.0 as Trevally Automated Scripts v0.2
requires v4.9.3 or later to work.

Romb · 11-13-10, 01:43 PM

Thanks will do.

Just ran game without any mods and still have weird semi-sub ships through scopes so guess something got fishy and need fresh install.

On sidenote; pretty weird game design : in Main Menu you can customize gameplay settings to your personal prefences (a.o. map settings) but when actually starting a campaign you can only select one of 4 predefined game settings; medium, hard etc. which overwrites the Main Menu settings.

So you can not have a fully realistic game with external cam enabled. For external cam you can only select 'hard' (or lower) setting when starting campaign but this automatically also enables map updates.
In short, the custom settings in Main Menu are useless as any user specific settings will be overwritten anyways.

By the way; what is difference between tactical and nav map ? Look pretty similar to me ...

An diff between Obs and Attack scope ? Also look pretty smilar to me.

Newbie here

Nevermind Obs versus Att scope question :

Wiki:
"The observation scope, used to scan the sea surface and sky, typically had a wide field of view and no magnification or low-power magnification. The targeting or "attack" periscope, by comparison, had a narrower field of view and higher magnification."

So diff is magnification and field of view (guess in SH5 magnification of the two is equal though).
