A request, can you version control this please.

Bug report

You forgot [Chart] in the torp failure for your TDW file

[Chart]
Category=Sjizzle
Name=torpedofailure
Filename=torpedofailure.dds
Size=-1,-1
Position=20,20
Draggable=1
ToolTip=torpedofailure chart

Also generally I think the layout could be improved. Nice your name is in the mod as the mod author, but having Sjizzle as the heading for the charts isnt intuitive for immersion. Maybe if you did like the others and have main headings grouped by actual function like RPM, Shipping etc. And can I suggest please naming the charts for what they are instead of just a title.

e.g. Main Heading of say "Torpedo" and then under that have "Torpedo Failure" and so on for all the Torp charts youve got

A feature request? OH II has a great Mine map. Its here at http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=3476 A simple rename of the file and edit of the TDW would provide this added chart

If you dont want to make these changes I'd be happy to do it if you grant permission for me to base a mod off yours

Great mod Sjizzle. I am using a mod list almost identical to Fifi's and using TDW's SH5 Enhanced UI (latest version) with the mouse in-out option activated for all of the tool bars.

After installing the charts mod, I lost the RH upper tool bar completely and the LH toolbar, (depth and throttle etc) remained visible and no longer had the mouse in-out function.

If I used the show-hide UI hot key, the LH toolbar disappeared permanently. The camera and officer bars seemed to function correctly and not be effected.

I tried a number of complete re-installs of the the entire game V1.2 with no luck.

Re-installing without the Charts mod and the UI functioned normally. Not sure whether it's just in my setup or a conflict with the mouse in-out function of the UI.

I don't think there is an issue if the mouse in, mouse out function of the UI is not activated, but I love the clear view and invisible toolbars this function of the UI allows.

I would like to resolve this issue as the ability to import user charts has so much potential.

I'm hoping to be able to get documents pertaining to real navigation e.g. the sun almanac etc in game and also "The Submarine Commanders Handbook" 1943 edition...not sure how to go about converting these docs into dds format and compatible with user charts or even if it's possible.

G'day Sjizzle,
any chance of a Northern Hemisphere Star Chart for real nav?
TheDarkWraith has put some charts etc in the doc's folder of the New UI's Real Navigation mod that may be useful.
It would be great to have a real navigation section in the user charts with the appropriate charts, tables and tools.
I'm just starting out with this sim and I was amazed when I discovered that the player can actually calculate their position using celestial navigation.

Hey everybody,

First off I wanna thank Sjizzle and everyone else who were able to put together such a nice collection of historical charts and documents. The attention to detail is amazing.
Is there any sort of documentation or guides on how to use all of these resources correctly?
Thanks again to everyone for all the hard work!

Good

A few remarks:
  • naming your releases with version numbers would help us in keeping our charts updated

  • I have the following suggestions for chart/categories naming and grouping:

    • Grouped under the category Maps
      Minefields and Anti-submarine Nets Map instead of Sperrnetze

    • Grouped under the category Weather Charts
      Beaufort and Douglas Scales instead of beaufortdouglas
      Beaufort Scale with Pics instead of beaufortpics

    • Grouped under the category Plotting Tools
      Maneuvering Board instead of maneuvering-board
      Timepiece Board or Timekeeper Board instead of Bearing Times Chart

    • Grouped under the category Target Data Assessment Charts
      AoB Assessment Chart instead of AOB
      Range Assessment Chart instead of Range Chart
      Speed Assessment Table instead of Speed Chart

    • Grouped under the category Torpedo Settings Charts
      Safe Torpedo Depths Table instead of Torpedo Depth chart
      90 deg Torpedo Bearings Table instead of 7. Torpedo strait-run chart

    • Grouped under the category Other Charts and Tables
      Trigonometric Table instead of sincosine

  • If you prefer, you can use progressive numbers or letters for category/charts names sorting, i.e: "I. Maps", "II. Weather Charts", etc.

  • As far as I know, the names of TDW cfg files don't need to follow chart categories naming; i.e. the same file can contain charts assigned to different categories

  • If you like my categories system, you could make New UI's default charts to follow them: i.e. change TDW's "Shipping" category to "Maps", assign the flag recognition manual to the "Target Data Assessment Charts" category. Personally, I would also rename TDW's "Speed conversions" category into a more generalist "Conversion Tables".

  • Two other handy tools that you should add to your mod are the simultaneous hits slide ruler by sublynx, and the AoB slide ruler by stoianm. If you want, I can give the latter a proper look, to fit the rest of the charts. Use permission for it shouldn't be a problem



  • Some cool posters of the units in service with main WWII navies are found at the following link:

    http://aaminis.myfastforum.org/viewt...93&start=0

    Imo they would make a nice, though dispensable, addition to your mod. Again, if you like them, I can give them an old Kriegsmarine paper look
