SH5 Mod order install advice

[Trevally.]

The most common cause for them not showing is that one of them is corrupt or just wrong.
What autoscripts have you installed?

Try downloading again and reinstall

[skip]

Have installed the scripts below.. in the order Sober recommends.

Trevally Tutorial - All v0.2(for OHIIv1.3)
Trevally Automated Scripts v0.6
Trevally Harbour & Kiel Canal Pilot v2.9
Trevally TDC Help v2

As I said when I first started a campaign they worked fine, but when I load a campaign saved game for some reason the scripts don't always show in the script box. stange cant seem to see pattern as to why they show sometimes but not other times.

Perhaps I should download them again and unpack with 7zip just incase WinRAR messed em up

is this the window that is blank?

If so we can see what is going on by using the Dbgview.

Exit the game and open folder - C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Applications

Run the app Dbgview

Start your SH5 - when loaded goto the automation page and see if it is blank
exit game and save the report from Dbgview.

You can copy and paste the txt here - wrap it in the code quotes to save space (#)

Skip, do you have any other automation scripts installed? I tried to use two: Krauter's and AvM's. They both use an obsolete syntax that New_UIs 7.1 and 7.2 have trouble recognizing. The AvM scripts have been updated by Trevally, get the latest version here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=2786

I have made some of my own scripts (copying shamelessly from, and with thanks to, Trevally) and found that the least syntax error in a script (mine, all mine!) will cause the automation page to have "funnies" when displaying available scripts. Sometimes some will show, other times not. Sometime I click on a category and it is "empty". Then I immediately click again, and the sub-categories appear. Unpredictable errors. Once you fix the syntax problem or simply uninstall the out-of-date packages, the problems go away. But errors in any script can cause the whole automation page to malfunction in non-fatal ways. Might be what you are seeing.

Feel free to copy and personalise. Autoscript is a great tool within TDWs UI mod and users should feel free to tweek any of mine they like

It certainly is! I cranked out over a dozen yesterday AM. Some just variations on a theme (with waypoints vs real nav, etc.) but still.... I'd urge anyone with a whit of simple programming experience - like wriing macros for Excel - or just computer self-confidence to try it.

But I only bothered because I looked inside yours and saw how you had done things. Thanks again. Your Harbour (sic ) Pilot scripts are a boon to everyone who plays SH5, particularly with Real Nav. The Kiel harbor graphics are very nice, but how many times do I want to slog through them?
