What if one just wanted the gramaphone alone without the commands mod entirely?
Reason I ask is that now that I have gotten used to the keyboard commands as the game comes stock, and sort of like it actually I'd still like to have the gramaphone.
So how would one go about this?

I second this, I don't want to go back to the old keymap, but instead I'm looking on mods and commands that add things to the stock game. So is there already any mod that do that? Like adding the gramophone, radio and missing stuff to the new commands.. would be great.

Check out DarkWraith's new UI Mod, it adds a lot of stuff not there with SH5 Stock.

Yeah I know. I respect his hard work, but I don't want to go back to the outdated SH3 graphics/interface and keymaps. I'm looking for mods that actually add things to the stock game, not bring it back to an early stage. I like very much the new interface and the commands as it is now, is just I miss some basic stuff that the devs "forgot" to implement.

An extension of the actual command bar would be awesome, all is needed is some new icons with shortcuts to gramophone, radio, depth under keel.. the very basic commands.

When it comes to movement around the sub, I like the arrangement of things stock. I've looked at Church's layout, and with it would be uncomfortable having to have my left hand so far to the right side of the keyboard and my right hand on the mouse controlling direction.
On the stock congiuration the left hand is on the left side of keyboard and everything is at your finger tips with out having to move one's hand around much. I can control everything with my hand in one spot, and all is within my finger's reach.

Most any other layout especially the old one, and your all over the keyboard.

Well I'v downloaded Church's mod and I'll just have to look in it to see what he did and just do it manually like I did for depth under keel.

From memory you just need to asign key commands to the radio and gramaphone. I suggest you guys have a look at the mods forum (maybe one of the radio mods) I clearly remember one of the modders talking about how to do this in a thread.

I also have to say that I felt the same about the stock layout but to be honest now I've installed Church's mod and am using it, I love it. It also comes with an F1 layout , so it's really easy to get used to IMO.

Either way I wish you good luck.

Lots of strange issues with the sounds - i've messed around alot with them trying different things, seeing what works and what doesn't.

I've come to the conclusion that some sounds have been left out because they cause issues with other sounds and some are hard coded and cant be changed.

I will say this much though - SH5 is great fun to edit and some of the mods being released are excellent. Given time SH5 will be something special, its just a shame it was released the way it was. I think the devs wanted to do so much more with it, hopefully we will have a decent patch in the near future.
