TWoS Sextant doesn't work

Sir Pappnase · 07-11-18, 08:15 PM

Hey guys,
I want to use and learn real navigation. Unfortunately my sextant doesn't work. I toggle the sextant view from the Navigator pop up and i get this screen where I can enable and disable the sextant. When I press enable, I kind of get the view of the UZO. I can only move up and down +/-20°. The altitude stays blank. I have that button that says after mouse hover "click to use sextant". but that acts more like a stadimeter. whatever I do with it, the altitude line stays blank.

I have a clean SH5 install via uplay launcher, followed the instructions of TWoS read me. I have to admit, I didn't always run the game as admin, but my last try was with admin rights and it didn't work as well.

It was simply nothing special about it. Reinstalled everything. Did everything like before.

So just reinstalling fixed the issue? I am having the same issue now and tried to reinstall but still having the issue
