so the problem is specifically loading previous saves; I reloaded my previous profile with 6_6_0 and they work with that; I also created a 6_7_0 test profile with exactly the same loadout/order and no joy loading the saves so it does seem to be a 6_7_0 change that is the issue.....

I think it's because of the snorkel. This is a new item added to the sub and thus isn't found in the old saves. Try editing the sub's .sns file and commenting out the O04 entry (comment out the entire thing). You might also have to remove the \data\Objects\Sensors\Uboat_Sensors.GR2, .sim, and .fx files from the mod.

Thanks TDW you are a star! I commented out the snorkel entry in the 7a and the saves now load again;

If i just edit the 7a hopefully when I trade up to the 7b or 7c I will then be able to snorkel properly - what do you think?

Then I will re-edit the .sns to reactivate the snorkel for future careers- does that make good sense?

Just wondering if there are any mods I can eliminate from the loadout in my earlier post and if the order is correct-do you see any that are superfluous?

Cheers again!

I think you have a solid plan that should work

@ Kentrat

Looking at your mod list, I see you use the newest UI 6.7.0. The Trevally Automation mods in your list, however, are old, and especially the Harbour pilot mod must be newest version 2.8 in order to work right with UI 6.7.0. I had the previous version 2.6, and with the old pilot my boat rammed the quay all the time. Changes in UI 6.7.0 require use of Trevally's new version.
Latest version for Trevally Auto Scripts is 0.6.

I have been using the journal alot. I open my journal file with the journal editor and its not the same text as the ingame journal. The editor adds all the commands to it. Is there a way to get my editor journal to look like the ingame journal? Also is there away to get journal to text file for printing or copying? I have a feeling I might need to press one the buttons on bottem right of journal. Not sure which one.

I had a problem getting the latest version to work, it was all enabled in JSGME, but not working in game...

The way you packaged the mod, within the new_ui_tdw there is another folder called mods, which contains another folder called the same as the top level, I cut and pasted all these up one level, and then deleted the empty mods folder and it worked...

Is this the error you get when unziping? I had some errors like that with winrar but its just winrar does not open "unzip" dss files. Just click on close. Everything will work fine

Ya something went wrong there Squid. Whats your mod list? Make sure window tree is somethign like this
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_7_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data

and not

C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_7_0_ByTheDarkWraith\NewUIs_TDC _6_7_0_ByTheDarkWraith\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6_7_0_ByThe DarkWraith\data

Thanks for the reply Mia389,

I double checked and the install paths are correct. I get everything else except the ship recognition book (all the other pullouts etc) and obviously the new gui.

here is my mods list.

Editor Jorunal

The reason the journal looks different in the app vice ingame is because the game can emit 'silent' entries. These silent entries do not appear in the ingame journal but are displayed in the app. You can make any entry silent or unsilent by using the app.

Good ideas! I'll update the app tomorrow as I'm flying airport to airport

If by ship recognition book you mean SOAN then you have to click the charts icon in the top right lower bar. Then drag SOAN out from the upper left side of screen. If you're talking about the other ship recognition (stock one) you have to go to a scope view first and then click on the XO picture.

[SquidB]

Thanks TDW, yes i do mean SOAN.

I click the "show charts" button on the upper right menu, and see the tags for the flags chart, and torpedo times etc, as well as the shipping chart, but no SOAN?

delete the \Silent Hunter 5\Pagelayout_Draggables.TDW file. Restart game Sounds like you changed screen res or something and the draggable positions need to be reset.
