Can someone help me understand what each dial is for? Or point me towards a tutorial I may have missed? I am trying to learn more about the German torpedo controls.
If I am correct - dial "B" sets salvo spread and dial "C" controls running depth... but I am at a loss for the others... I have some ideas, but thought I would ask. Thanks in advance.

Akula,
I'm new to OMU (less than 24hrs since I downloaded!). "D" selects an individual torpedo (T) or salvo (S). "A" lets you select which salvo spread, i.e. this jpeg is pointing to a salvo of all 4 forward tubes (I, II, III and IV). If you select Salvo w/ "D", you then use "A" to click on which tubes to use. I believe "E" selects the torpedo range for those torpedoes that have multiple range/speed settings (L would be long range - slowest speed, S would be short range - fastest speed). Not sure about "F"... in SH3 there was a switch to select impact or magentic fuse... this could be it but not sure. |

OM torpedo settings - Dials explained
Thanks dmlavan... I really appreciate the help sir. I could not find this info documented anywhere. Hopefully this post will be searchable for future skippers with similar questions... as I could not find anything like this in my forum searches. So for others future reference:
Dial "A": lets you select which tubes will launch a salvo, i.e. the arrow in the above image is pointing to a salvo of all 4 forward tubes (I, II, III and IV). Dial "B": sets salvo spread angle Dial "C": controls running depth Dial "D": selects an individual torpedo (T) or salvo (S) Dial "E": selects the torpedo range for those torpedoes that have multiple range/speed settings (L would be long range - slowest speed, S would be short range - fastest speed) Dial "F": select impact or magnetic fuse - A= contact fuse / M = magnetic

Getting some weird German speech problems:
1) For some reason ahead slow and ahead one third are reversed! 2) If I press the "P" key the boat goes to Periscope depth but speech says Ahead Standard, and if I press "S" the boat surfaces but speech once again is Ahead Standard! Mods: OpsMonsun_V705 OMv705_to_V712 OM_V712_Hotfix1 OMEGU_v200 OMEGU_v200_Patch1 PS. tried with the following but computer reset itself a couple of times: RSRDC_SH15_V401 RSRDC_V410_Patch2 OpsMonsun_V705 OMv705_to_V712 OM_V712_Hotfix1 Sh3toSh4.V3_RSRDC_OM Edit: The problem (2) is with the Commands.cfg file, either OMEGA version v2 or v2 patch 1! More info found, seems that this is the problem command: [Cmd164] Name=Ahead_standard Ctxt=1 Str=1013 Key0=0x33,C,"3" Key1=0x50,,"P" Key2=0x53,,"S" Key3=0xBA,,";" I will just delete the last 3 lines, don't know if this is all that needs to be done though!

That is "NOT" a problem but "as designed", I recommend that you re-read the "readme" that is in the first post of OMEGU thread Quote:

ahead slow and ahead one third
Easy fix is
folder Data/Sound/speech/1 rename ChE_K_Ahead_Slow to ChE_K_Ahead_One_Third. and ChE_K_Ahead_One_Third to ChE_K_Ahead_Slow. also for ChE_P and for Che_S. Why, it is some kind of SH4 thing, I have no idea why About S. tried with the following but computer reset itself a couple of times: RSRDC_SH15_V401 RSRDC_V410_Patch2 should be RSRDC_V401_Patch2 OpsMonsun_V705 OMv705_to_V712 OM_V712_Hotfix1 Sh3toSh4.V3_RSRDC_OM

@ Lurker_hlb3, Oh I see, I would prefer not to have the speeds changed by these commands, could you please tell me how to put this part back? If you don't mind of course. Thanks.

Crashes after the loading after the intros. I have downloaded the only 705 version, and activated it by JSGME. This might sound like dumb question, but does this reguire the U-Boat Missions Expansion?
