This Application for Silent Hunter 5 allows you to give orders to your crew when you connect a Microphone to your game.

Full Documentation includes a set of recognized Commands documented as a Reference Card is a useful addition in looking how the Command Structure works.
The Command Structure for this Application is based on the orders within the Officers Icons which can be seen at the bottom of your screen.
When giving orders you should be precise with your phrasing as the Speech Engine may misinterpret your orders.
Saying 2 zero zero, as individual digits is much better understood than saying 200 as the Speech Engine seems to handle single digits better.
The Speech Engine has a particular difficulty understanding the 2 digit.

Picture 1 > The Application can be downloaded here or from my Tutorials.
Speech Recognition for SH5 By Skwasjer > Enable JSGME


Picture 2 > Zip file downloaded.


Picture 3 > Zip file shows a folder which needs to be opened.


Picture 4 > The Mods folder showing now needs to be opened.


Picture 5 > Highlight the first folder as in the picture and press the Copy Tab.
This is the only folder you are interested in.


Picture 6 > Press OK to Confirm the Copy and Exit.


Picture 7 > Shows the Application which now needs to be moved so another Copy action is required.


Picture 8 > Paste the Application into the MODS folder in the Main Game folder.
Typical example C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS or TWoS_Parts


Picture 9 > Open the JSGME Application.


Picture 10 > Enable the Application as shown in the picture.


Picture 11 > Close JSGME.


Picture 12 > Go to the MODS folder and open the Application.


Picture 13 > Folder Layout of the opened Application.


Picture 14 > Open the SHSpeechEngine Test Application.


Picture 15 > You can now Start to Test out various Commands to see if you are being recognized by the Speech Test Engine.


Picture 16 > Shows the Documentation folder.


Picture 17 > There are Options in both English and German to choose from.


Picture 18 > This Internet document highlighted takes you to the important Reference Card.


Picture 19 > The Reference Card is is a comprehensive list of Commands covering some 11 pages.
This does not mean that all the Commands are usable.
Due to a Players Phrasing and/or Dialect some Commands will be misread or even a ctd might occur.
I would suggest always making regular Game Saves as a backup in case this should happen.


Picture 20 > To Start the Speech Recognition click on the Microphone Icon as in the picture.


Picture 21 > Click on Load.


Picture 22 > Picture shows the Aperture unlit.


Picture 23 > Clicking on the Aperture Enables the Speech Recognition to Start.
This can be seen confirmed in the picture.


Picture 24 > Press Close to Exit the Setup.


You can now start giving orders to your crew.

These procedures from Pictures 20 to 24 need to be done each time the Game is Started when you want to use a Microphone to give orders.

If you disable the Application you will need to follow the procedures from Picture 9 when Enabled again.

I will say.. when it comes to basic commands for navigation etc .. I use this for the rest I Click .. and yep it is installed correctlly

Auto TDC Tutorial Attacking An Escorted Convoy > Pictorial

My WO has suddenly told me there is a ship off my port bow long range.

Picture 1 > I have measured the distance to be 4,000 meters.
I can see this warship is quite fast around 10 or 11 knots.
I am at around 90 degrees to this warship and I am too close to him to close the distance without being seen so I need to make a flanking movement.


Picture 2 > I have scrolled the map out so I can find the warships course 102 degrees.


Picture 3 > I need to change my speed from Slow Ahead and also change course to run parallel with the warship.


Picture 4 > Speed increased to Ahead Flank and my course altered to 102 to run parallel.


Picture 5 > Deleted

Picture 6 > The X mark was where I last saw the warship.
I have a 4 or 5 knots advantage so my course can be changed a few degrees to 100 in the mean time I want to set up an attack position.
Notice there are only 2 course lines under 700 meters apart.


Picture 7 > I have setup an attack position.
Notice this is 63km from where I first spotted the warship.
There is no guarantee at this distance that the warship will still be on the course line I drew out as wind speed and wind direction at this distance is likely to pull him off course even if he maintains the original 102 course.


Picture 8 > I am at All Stop and gliding into my attack position.
I do not want to be to close as I do not want to be picked up on his asdic.
With Auto TDC you can still hit targets even at 5,000 meters distance.


Picture 9 > Now at periscope depth I have set the crew to Battle Stations and have ordered Silent Running.
I waited while surfaced for the ships to come into view and then drew out the 2 course lines.
I should hopefully be able to setup a multiple attack on these 2 course lines.


Picture 10 > My Sonar man has picked up a number of contacts.


Picture 11 > Opening the tube doors and setting all 4 torpedoes to fast, however this may change.
Very important to make sure the tube doors are open otherwise you will miss the target


Picture 12 > I am setting the 4 torpedoes depth.
I know there are 2 Troopships/AMC’s which will have a decent draft.
I will fire 2 torpedoes at each target, each one with a different depth.
I am only carrying G7a torpedoes, the electric G7e torpedoes I replaced with the G7a.
Torpedo depths > 2 at 3.4 and 2 at 3.7 meters.
The wind speed was 10 so they should not run too deep.


Picture 13 > The target locked is a Small Replenishment Ship as showing on the TAI map.
Must be new from TWoS as I have never seen one of these before in SH5.

Break/Lock is a setting in TDW’s Options File Editor Viewer (OFEV) that shows that the target is locked.


Picture 14 > Shows how small this ship is by the torpedo depth gauge.
I am using the Torpedo man, officer icon 3 to identify the targets by clicking on icon 1 the one on the left each time to identify targets.


Picture 15 > The TAI map is showing a second ship, ringed Troop Transport or possible AMC.


Picture 16 > I am now targeting the Troop Transport you can see the difference on the torpedo depth gauge between this ship and the previous one.


Picture 17 > It is time to configure the TAI Map by pressing the button showing.


Picture 18 > Notice the change on the TAI Map when I click on the Torpedo solution line.
Shows the Torpedo solution line going through the middle of the Troop Transport.
Exit TAI map features.


Picture 19 > New Target on second course line showing locked is another Troop Transport
Notice the torpedo solution line.


Picture 20 > Now look again at the torpedo solution line position when I unlock the target and notice the difference.
Auto TDC has calculated this is where the torpedo needs to impact to hit the target.


Picture 21 > All 4 torpedoes are now away.
2 torpedoes were re-set to slow for the nearest Troop Transport.
2 torpedoes set to fast for the the other Troop Transport furthest away.
As is often the case the torpedoes have been spotted and all the ships are trying to take evasive action.


Picture 22 > 1 hit and 3 misses.
The other 3 torpedoes would have hit the 2 targets which were extremely lucky and it was undoubtedly their speed which saved them.
As they say some you win and some you lose.

I am using a mod where 1 torpedo will sink any size ship but I always fire 2 in case 1 is a dud.


Picture 23 > Destroyed mark showing the Troop Transport.


Picture 24 > Captains Log.
Notice the year and day corruption this is now quite normal and is not a problem.
I have a tutorial how to edit and correct this but personally I do not bother.


Mods used can be either found in my Tutorials or come with TWoS.

How To Change Game Play Settings At Sea When On Patrol

This Tutorial will show you how you can make various changes as and when you want to while in a Mission/Patrol and not in the Bunker.
You can make one or any number of changes as long as each file shows the same changes have been made.
The Tutorial is structured so all the changes follow a logical sequence from first to last so there is less chance of confusion taking place.

This is your starting point > Go to > C:> Documents > SH5 > data > cfg > you must be able to see this path in the main menu to be able to make any changes.

Please take careful note of the paths as you move through each of the 8 changes needed to complete the processes, many of the files have the same names and identical structure, but are in different places.
