A couple of suggestions if they haven't been mentioned already:

1. Tooltips on some icons are missing.

2. I like the enlarged dials but can they be moved up slightly or reduced slightly in size? This is because if you move the mouse downwards rather than away left or right from the enlarged dial the interface doesn't quite know what to do and flickers the dials in and out of enlarged mode.

I'll move them up slightly then.

THanks for your hard work, I have installed the old style dials mod and it works a treat, will do this one next.

Thanks

The problem is I do seem to be running an earlier version but my game updater crashes when I try to run it. So I dowloaded the patch manually and tried to run it but it tells me that SH5 is not installed!

I bought from Impulse but when I try to reinstall from there now it tells me that "The serial number you have entered is not currently an active registration" This is when using the serial number from Impulse themselves.
If I try to reinstall from the archive that I downloaded it tells me that it needs to to be registered and I go back to the above.

1) Would it be possible to add two buttons to the hydrophone menu since the first button seems to follow the nearest merchant:
- Follow nearest contact
- Follow narest warship

2) Is it possible to fix the recognition manual so we are able to not only see american warships?

Thanks for the great work!

Sounds like you're not installing it correctly. Currently these mods aren't the same as others where you just dump into MODS and go. Read the instructions in the zip.

Found another bug, at any time compression where the game disables the officer voice chat and you set a heading the U-boat will not turn to the heading. Once you slow down so you get crew voices again the heading dial works fine. Minor nuance considering!

This UI made it possible for me to sink an unarmed convoy at the mouth of the English Channel

Loving it so far, glad I had a tiny hand in it's creation

I'm still using the original BETA release so

Can we have Tooltips on icons when mouse goes over them pls ?

The silent running button icon is the same with periscope depth can we change it ?

Thanx again..

Minor bug report - the new dials of course appear while you're walking in the pens, which isn't a really big deal EXCEPT that if you go to upgrade your boat or change the torpedo loadouts you can't see how much renown the upgrades are costing you because the interface window where you buy the upgrades doesn't move and the dials cover that info.

yes I've noticed that there is a way to disable them. I'm trying to get that to work currently also (it deals with scripting)

redcoat22 · 03-09-10, 09:42 AM

Looking really good. Is the plan to eliminate most of the SH4 icons?

Also, will we be able to access the gramaphone/radio with this thing?

I will use this great mod when it causes no more ctd`s or other errors.

Maltro · 03-09-10, 04:42 PM

Thanks for this mod! you're the chief!

kylania · 03-09-10, 05:26 PM

In most cases the eraser tool isn't selectable except for the very top of it. I'd also suggest that gutted's fix for always displaying the toolbar if the TAI is open be made standard.
