I will be releasing a new updated version soon, and I'm sure obelix will update his Megamod with that release also.

That's a very great job, but my question was if, and how, could I install a new mod. Thus must I "restart" from the beginning (in the bunker after the "tutorial") or in any point of the campaign ... I suppose always in the bunker?
Thanks for any help.

Nembo

PS: would it be possible to insert the attack disk on the Map area and not only on the observation scope?
Thanks.

Reaper7, could be put in the next version of your UI mod on the sides near the submarine periscope eyepiece (as peripheral vision)?




Periscope in version 2.2. was nice too!

Yes best to Install in Bunker - a lot of issues are caused when installing out to sea.
As for the Attack Disc - Currently the periscope is used to rotate one of the disc layers - If I moved it to the Map It would no longer rotate.
I will look into scripting a rotate routine for that layer, if successful then I can move it to the Map.

Hi Mate, going to release what I currently have done so fay today.
I've been toying with something else for the periscope - It might work and it might not, if it doesn't sure I'll release a set of scopes along the lines of what you posted - just with correct fov like the ones that are in the release today.

Hello reaper7,

I tested your new version 4.0 and I have several little problems.

I use a standard manual (black silhouettes). Again, I have a problem with the tanker Cimmaron:



And a few small but important things for combat (torpedo tube Nr. 5):

Darn, though I fixed that one - Must of forgotten to save that file with correct name. Will re-update it.
Correct image is in the folder - just has the wrong name.

Rename in folder data\Sea\NOL_T3Cimmaron

NOL_T3Cimmaron_sil.dds to NOL_T03_sil.dds for now till I get patch out


And a few small but important things for combat (torpedo tube Nr. 5):



Thanks mate, looks like I never turned of scaling on that background image.
Will sort that out for patch

The overlap on the Panels, was a decision I made for this release to keep. Between V2.2 and V4.0 I made the panels scale with regard to screen resolution so no overlap would occur at lower resolutions, but the whole thing just looked terrible. Dials were unreadable, everything was jagged and it just looked so low resolution.
I've reverted back to non-scaling panels in V4.0 to get back the higher resolution and better looks. After all panels can be visually turned on/off to get at the panel you want if covered by another. (The smaller of the two evils) .

Thanks for those bug report.


PS: With regadr to your earlier request for the Periscope Background, this is what I'm working on for that - but no success yet. (Check out post 15)

Thank you reaper7 for your feedback.

Ehh, I like your periscope background in v. 2.2 and this one in your discussion thread is wonderful!

Will you make it also for SH5 (included in your UI mod) PLEASE?!? And what if you use a real photo of interior of the U-Boat?

I would be more realistic:-)

Thanks for the link mate, I had found one before for the VIIC conning tower but can no longer find it.
But I've ordered a Bluray with full panaromic videos of all the VIIC for this reason.
I plan on doing the background with proper images if I can get the Linear dial to work the way I need it to.
And yes its for my UI I'm making it, just posted in the SH3 thread for help as best advice can be found there regarding the UI .
