Default How to show the patrolling grid

Hi everyone,

I started my new patrol in the Eastern England Approaches, but I can't see any grid on my map (AN2331 for example).
How can I make this appear ?

Thank you

Ok,

it seems that I've a little problem cause when I've a general view of Western Europe, I can see the grid but when I start to zoom the Eastern British Coast, the grid disappear.

Do you know this problem ?

Hi kariyann

The grid will only disappear when you zoom out and will appear again when you zoom in with your mouse.

Zoomed in showing the grids


Zoomed out to enlarge grid AN55 with mouse wheel.


Does that answer your question?

I continued to investigate.
I uninstalled all mods, and only installed IO Startegic map 7.4.2 and after 7.5.0.
But it appeared that these mods don't manage the famous grid.
Does anyone knows which mod manage this Kriegsmarine Grid ?

Hi,

IO StratMap has the KM grid. Its actually like you said. You zoom in very close and the grid disappears. But when you zoom out it should be there.
But you also need "Sjizzles - MarineQuadrat Charts for NewUIs v. 0.00.2" to get the exact grid reference. After you installed that mod you have another chart you can lay over the grid system and get the exact position.
But for that mod as the name already says you also need TDWs NewUI 7.5.0.

Edit: Ok, looking at your screens cloesly again that indeed looks somehow strange. Different to mine at least. What mods are you using?

Why don't you just try some of the megamods for SH5?

Then, why do you adding/removing mods which are already included in the modpack???

Are you sure that you know what you are doing?

I've solved the issue.
My zip pack was probably corrupt and a file had never been extract
(SH5/DATA/TERRAIN/MAPS/MAPS2/21600_10800.RAW)
I redownload the pack and it's okay now.

Thank you
