I see Manual in picture, the problem might be that it will be only Japanese ships and not good in SH5 where the need for European country ships as American.

That's fine, I want to use it for SH IV not SH V, I can use the 2 posted and put together one for myself for SH V (might share it if it turns out OK but I'm not too sure the original creators would be too happy).

I just like the idea of having flip books that I can refer to for both SH IV and SH V, because I have both games, rather than having to click through the pages on the in-game recognition manuals.

There is a werid version in SH5 gold. Located here:
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\LngGameData\Collectors\Bible\English

Maybe SHIV is hidden like this one.

Can't see any such path in my copy of SH IV. Don't have the gold version of SH V either, got that from the Ubisoft store when it was on sale for £1 last year or the year before.

Those SH IV posters are a start though.


And a thought has just occured to me - I could just go into the game files (of both games), pull up all the .cfg files and their related _sil.dds files and compile my own recognition manual that way. The text is already in English and the silhouette pictures are great for what I want, and 160 or so ships (for SH V) and 120 or so ships for SH IV probably wouldn't take me too long to put together with their relevant data, although sorting them into the correct type (i.e. warship, merchant etc.) might...
