SH5 patch #2 - Page 35

Athlonic · 05-09-10, 01:52 AM

By the way,

Have anyone be able to configure the Xbox 360 gamepad controller with SH5 ?

I can't get it to work at all, I would like :

Left stick : dive plane, rudder control
Right stick : periscope control
Left trigger : torpedo fire
Right trigger : canons fire
Left + Right shoulder : abandon ship
A: Lock/unlock target
B: Solution on TAImap
Y: Cook's special soup !
X: Exit game to install the 1.2.5 update

Tried it once. Works flawlessly in FSX, doesn't work at all in SH5.

So now it is clear :

FSX is a real simulation, SH5 not !

?

use a software like xpadder
http://www.xpadder.com/
you can assign every key or mouse movement to the buttons and sticks of your XBox360 controler

if you are not using Windows 7, the 5.3 is still freeware

Thanks for the update. Can't help but notice though that it's all bug fixes. What enhancements are on the list have already been done by modders... some of them 5 minute mods (if I understood correctly) and the rest probably done better.

Yes this game is buggy and the bugs need to be fixed before I'll play it again, but it is also woefully incomplete in many areas, and poorly or under-developed in many others. It needs enhancement just as badly as it needs bug fixes.

And while I shouldn't complain about getting something (anything!) out of them - even if it's just the thought that UBI, in developing this patch, has probably just wasted a lot of money on this game, and may now know how I feel - I can't help but think "why bother?" No amount of bug fixing is going to elevate this game above "dreck" level unless the needed enhancements are made. And that's not very likely to happen.

Yes, yes, yes... the modders will do it, right?

Well, let me tell you why this bothers me a little bit.

UBI publishes crap. They do just enough to make it functional, then turn it over to modders to make a real game of it. Well, who reaps the rewards? The modders get nothing for their efforts. However, UBI continues to make money through sales they would not have realized without the work of the modders! They're still making money on SH3 (unless they've sold the rights to one of those CD case discount distributors), because of the work the modders have done.

I'm sure this all started out as a happy accident which benefited both gamers and the publisher. But, from what we've heard, it seems the publisher is now expecting this - counting on it in fact, to finish an otherwise incomplete the game. IMO there's something fundamentally wrong with that. The whole thing just feels kind of greasy.

Hopefully the patch will be a big step forward. The Russian 1.2 patch still has some issues tho...

fingers crossed for tomorrow, and FINALLY be able to enjoy the game, but still have a decent dose of caution, being that its been delayed over and over.

The current mods available should allow you to enjoy the game more than the minor patch we're getting tomorrow ever will.

Yes, for most your right, but IM a single core cpu, so my explosions/water graphics are a slide show, I would love to have that fixed and then remod up!

The patch 1.2 will be released on May 12th. I saw that on the Silent Hunter Facebook page. It is not today. Tomorrow.

Honestly, after a full month of delays it shouldn't be surprising. New ETA is 18:00 CET.
