[REL] Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC

[TheDarkWraith]

This version (v2.4.0) accesses your computer's registry to fiind the path to the files it needs to read for the mast height data. Hopefully there are no problems with it but if there is I'll have to tend to them tomorrow

Thanks DW, giving this one a try now... surprised me seeing the mast heights automated version released so soon.

[gouldjg]

Just want to say thanks for the great work.

I have only just managed to find the time to load this up and it is a absolute essential mod from now on.

Still no journal feature ? Any ETA on when this will be implemented?

Your work is a godsend btw

I had a good break-through happen with it yesterday and after that it was just a matter of writing the code to access the files on the user's computer to read the data the mod needs to determine mast heights.
If any ships don't have entries or their files were corrupt then you'll see mast height as 0.0 for them. We need to make a log of which ships those are so we can fix them. I've found one already.

just tried the new version and was getting 0.0m for mast height(liberty class)

WIN 7 64bit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Ubisoft\Si lent Hunter 5

I'm getting "20" for mast height for all ships. Windows 7 64bit.

installdir is found in:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Ubisoft\Si lent Hunter 5\GameUpdate

for me. There's essentialy nothing under just \Silent Hunter 5

Excellent, thanks a lot

I'd like to be able to post my Enigma Patrol log in game to add some realism

For windows XP Pro. 32 bit, the installdir registry is located in :-

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\GameUpdate

I've installed my game to D:\Simulations\SilentHunter5

[Jander]

WinXp 32, getting mast height 0
registry as in jwilliam's posting, install path is e:\games\silent hunter 5

[edit]
correction: get correct mast height for merchants and tankers, it seems, but mast height 0 for escorts and warships
might it be that there is a problem with the special characters in the german language? maybe your script has a problem parsing the names for "Zerstörer" or "Flottenträger"?

I think TDW has it coded that way on purpose.
