so that was the one that caused the problem and stopped the whole extraction!

Holy crap I'm having the same problem. It's not just the extraction though. My actual path is too long!!!

C:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\silent hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_ByTheDarkWraith\MODS\NewUI s_TDC_6_3_0_Scopes (do not enable - open and read)\emtguf_rework_scopes\emtguf_rework_scopes_5_ 8_ratio\data\Menu\Skins\German\Gui\Layout

I extracted the whole mod to somewhere basic, then tried to windows-move it, and it fails because c:\games\steam\etc\etc\etc\ that path is too long!!!! I can work around it... I hope.

Can I suggest you rename the very lengthy brackets bit, TDW?

I got the piece of advice from our guru himself (TDW) to use ZipGenius. Google and download it.
Works just fine for me anyway.
Try it!

I want to use these mods, is the order correct and do I need the 3rd, knowing my resolution is 1920*1080 16/9?

NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_ByTheDarkWraith
MRP 16x9 ratio
NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_6x_6x_7x_RAOBF_patch_stock_scope
NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_Real_Navigation

Tks

Salut Gauthier

I think you should try to activate these Mods in the following order:

NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_ByTheDarkWraith
NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_Real_Navigation
NewUIs_TDC_6_3_0_6x_6x_7x_RAOBF_patch_stock_scope
MRP_4_3_ratio
MRP 16x9 ratio

Please note yoy must activate the MRP_4_3_ratio before you activate the. Otherwise it won't work.

I'm using these Mods in this order myself.

BTW, a very nice Mod worth trying.

Quick question, I use the SH3 interface and I the "MessageBox" is currently pinned underneath the 3 dials.

Is there an option that I missed in the config file to move the MessageBox to the left side of the screen?

[titidinca]

how did you solved this problem?
when I'm under water can not mark target! Lock-break does not work ( though it is enabled to appear ) and target can not mark with the key space.

These messages are possible only for player's submarine or for other: spotted enemy german AI or enemy british AI submarines?

Congratulations TDW and we thank you for your work....

It's all simulated. I can't really tell if another ship has sighted a sub or not, I can't even tell if another ship has sighted another ship. To give the illusion of radio traffic I iterate over all the ships and 'roll the dice' to see if it has sighted a submarine or not. If it does then I 'roll the dice' to see if it spotted a surfaced or submerged one.
Now for the player's sub I just look at distance to contact. If it's within the distance range we 'roll the dice' to see whether the sub was spotted or not. If not, we wait a random amount of time and check again. Cycle repeats until player's sub is spotted or we are greater than the maximum distance the contact can spot the sub.

for some reason after 6.3.0 patch 4,

- the manual targeting cheat bug is present again (manual targeting is enforced via tdw options)

- the entire menue has changed from german to english


EDIT: ...never mind, my fault

Hi!

I think in the patch the optionfile was included... maybe you overwrote yours?

Hello,
Now i have a big problem.

I have a current campaign.

If i start the game without any mod, i can continue the campaign, so after the loading music and screen, the game start for this campaign.

If i install this mod, for example 6.3.0, without or with patch 4, if i select continue the campaign, after the loading music and screens , i have a black screen (5 minutes ...), and i had to kill the process in windows.

If i start for example an historical campaign, the game start normally.

Ideas for this problem, i can't continue my campaign.

Salut pfeillant
Je rencontre systématiquement des coupures quasi instantanées ce soir particulièrement... Egalement en chargeant ma campagne en cours...Tout a bien fonctionner cet après-midi et ce soir impossible de jouer...Je me demande quand même si il ne s'agit pas de problèmes au niveau du serveur Ubi

Hi and thanks again for the life saving mods! There is one thing that bothers me still and it's the radio reports. I really like all other aspects of the radio, but the constant periscope sighted messages are too much. In a long patrol there must be hundreds or thousands of them! So I found this option on the UserOptions.py:

# when stalking or approaching a ship this is the range at which the possibility exists that the ship could spot the sub and send a radio report about it
# below is in meters
RangeShipSendingSubSightedMessage = 8000

If i put there "0" will it disable the "sub sighted" messages? Or is there another option for it? Thanks!

[pfeillant]

Hello, pascal , grand salut et meilleurs voeux,

my problem is systematic

without the mod it is ok
with the mod i always have the black screen

it is a problem between the mod and the campaign save

in this case, i have to lost my campaign (many reals weeks)!!

[cgbaker@sympatico.ca]

I am faced with crashes when activating 6.3.0 and then patch 6.3.4....
which I feel relates to sequence and choosing options (True, false etc)
