Cant Move the Hydrophone Manually

First off, in the "root" folder of your install, which is generally "C:\Program Files (x86)\ Ubisoft\ Silent Hunter..." for most folks' initial installs, you should find a couple of jpeg files "SH4_Q-Ref_Card_Back.jpg" and "SH4_Q-Ref_Card_Front.jpg". Open those babies, and you have your keyboard lay-out and short cuts. Print them and keep them handy for a while (or always, if you're like me and can't remember breakfast). Anyway, everything else ~except~ the sonar rotate controls are listed there... I know, I know... not a lot of help on this... Also, the "Follow Contacts" is only for the regular sonar man at the station, not for when you take his chair and sit there. If you either hit the <Home> and <End> keys, or scroll your mouse wheel, you should be able to rotate the heads. I'm in the USS Flounder, a Gato boat, doing the Ambush in the Palawan Passage, and doing fine with them. If you find otherwise, shout back and someone can get you going on that.

Lest I gorfet again: "Welcome to SubSim RedFish395!"
