OLC Gold MkII not working properly

[BelegDraug]

Hi Everybody!
I was triying to use, in GWX 3 Gold, the great OLC's Gold MkII mod with EDE and GUI with LRT...
I use a clean GWX installation, and the problem comes when I hit F5 to see de map... My sub is nos displayed! And also are not displayed any other ships!

Anyone knows what could it be? I make the insllation step by step... but nothing seems to work...

THXS A LOT!!!

OLC is a realism mod, removing your position marker and map contacts is a feature!

I use it with ACM reloaded (which includes more gui changes) and ACM lite map which returns your position marker and, map contacts if you want them. There is probably a specific mod to return your map contacts if you don't want to install ACM reloaded... but you'll have to look for it or maybe someone else knows of one.

But be aware these mods are aimed at manual TDC, you won't be able to use the weapon officer for a fire solution if you use these... although using the auto torp shooting (or whatever it is called) option in the realism/difficulty settings should still work.

Hail to King Zog!
I didn't notice all the things you tell me...
Dam*!! I'm using the full auto calculations for my shots... My Officer is much more proeficient than me to makes those numbers!!!

Thanks a lot for your help!

One of topic question:

how do you navigate without the boats position on the nav map.
Dou you have a simulated sextant on the bridge ?? Ask the navigator to peridicly update your position which is very inacurate during cloudy weather ??
What ?? What ?? it sounds awesome to fiddle with the sextant or have to have a star chart

It DOES sound awesome to be able to play with more navigation tools, but sadly no sextent or extra tools are provided, perhaps they are beyond the scope of the game engine.

I play with the position marker returned by ACM's 'lite' option, so I'm not sure how people play without it.

edit: Although even without your u-boat marker, there is no way of getting lost as placing a waypoint works in exactly the same way and will show you exactly where your uboat is. I would think all it really effects in not being able to see your exact orientation in a gods eye view, and no helpful gwx compass rose.

Ahh, got it.
Everything sounds fine, but NO compass, that's something a boyscout would frown upon, letalone a kriegsmarine officer and crew

Wellm when I installed the mod, all I could see was that the map was centered on my U-Boote... and if I plot a new course, I could see how it run throught it, but with no U-Boote icon or any other ships icon...
