Ecellent, i'm a real noob in sub simulation (first paly on SH5) and i was able to apply those method instantly and that's quite indispensable to have a real felling about sub capability and restriction. Add a lot of realisme and fun to the game. Thanks a lot
I'm now playing in hard realisme option and i love it

when we speak for MANUAL targeting the ''map contacts update'' must be OFF !
other than that is NOT manual targeting and you don't need any 'tutorial' for start shooting ! if map contacts are ON you get the distance ,speed ,aob anytime you want from map ....its only an arcade gameplay

Thanks mate! You just made me feel bad. After playing SH 3 and 4 with auto targeting I'm now learning "manual" targeting with these great tutorials because i have to! The auto TDC is so f'ked up for long shots. I started thinking that this is nice and gives much more immercity to the game.
WTF you don't even play the game. Make your own ELITE TUTORIAL for SH5 so i can look into it otherwise your post is just bragging that "I'm a pro u r noobs loool!!1!"

Don't feel bad Peni, manual targeting is just fine with map contacts on. Everyone can play this game anyway they'd like.

We're slowing getting to the point where all the tools are available to make true 100% targeting possible, but right now it's still too restrictive to me. Besides, seeing how close I am to being seen is just as exciting as having no idea what so ever.

Play how you want and enjoy yourself, don't let other's play styles get you down.

Thanks mate. Sadly I think that i need to start my career all over again because I upgraded my torpenomen to fire faster torpedoes (I think that this should be warned here in stickys) I've tried some mods that disables torpmen abilities with that js.. mod tool with no help. The problem is that the aiming mechanism doesn't understand torps that are faster than normal. I'm I correct?

Did you load the MoraleMod and the Torp fix? I'm using both (you might need to load them between patrols) and it's totally changed the game. Shots are back on track and commands WORK. Very good stuff.

Indispensable !! can't make accurate shoot without them !!
But with my longest shoot is at 4300m now.

I have MoraleMod and Krupp's moral fix + torp fix but I'm not sure if I've installed 'em properly. I unzipped 'em in SH5/MODS, then enabled 'em with JSGME. I got some message that they modify the same file!? Yesternight I missed from 900 meters with 3 torps that went slightly ahead of target. That was easy straight shot from about 90 degree angle. I will try to modify that AbilityValue command line later.

[kylania]

Yup, do the MoraleMod first, then the Torp Fix. Torp fix will complain that it's changing the same files, which is fine since it's based on the MoraleMod's version of the file.

Also make sure you have the proper speed on a ship, and also that they didn't see the torps coming and slow down.

Yes. I get my target speed from map contact, I always try to shoot so that the torp doesn't need to turn, I try to shoot from still position 90 degs from the side within 1000m preferable around 500m and I also use electric torps. From what I've learned from the torp speed bug is that the closer you are from the target the more inaccurate you get. The aiming lead is huge at 500m, from 1000m I can still hit if I aim to the rear.

these tutorials have been helpful..but I still cant sink a thing with torps my shots keep falling astern. I think I'm not doing the AOB correctly... it makes me miss the old auto solutions.
