[REL] Old Style SH Controls (familiar 3 dials) for UI v1.3.1

[Galanti]

Outstanding, outside of bugs, this is the most urgent fix as far as I can see.

Personally, I can now do without those ghastly other depth/speed controls. How about removing them altogether and docking the old controls to the left bottom edge of the screen?

Or perhaps let me know how it can be done?

ok files fixed and are available for download again. Sorry about that

Nice work man...very nice work!

use the included menu editor with the game to edit the files. I'll make another version that removes the digital readouts later tonight.

Thanks a lot.

I laughed at this little bug i found whit this mod.

If i stand at the bridge and order to dive via the dial the watch crew jump into the hatch and close it while iam standing on the bridge and knocking on the hatch.

Hey iam the captain, you cant dive leaving me here.

Opps they can, darn krauts, deep breath, deeeeeep breath, and down we go

Simply, use the dial and your captin will be left on the brigde when you dive so let him go down first


It was nearly a Bernard moment i got there hehe

[CCIP]

Outstanding

Now if you could also find a way to get battery/fuel/compressed air/CO2 gauges in, I think my first request would be complete. And I would owe you a subsim mug or shirt

Give this man his own download section!

Great work Wraith!

I am guessing your one of the Devs here patching things up :P

Speechless at how fast you did this, this is awesome, thank you

Thank you very much! But there is one problem. If you want to manually set target speed, the right dial blocks the "back"-button in the dialogue menu. So you can't confirm the order.

The placement may be off in different resolutions. The first post details how you can adjust them to your preference.

** Edit - ok the first post DID last night... maybe you can put that helpful tip back DarkWraith?

Yeah they are a little redundant now aren't they? Awesome work, thanks again!

My resolution is 1680x1050. I use the german version. Don't know if that changes the text positions. The dial hides the "Back"-option in the dialogue, but you can click right to it, so it still works.

Where does SH5 save screenshots? I can't find them.

Sounds good, I'm going to try the editor after I put my little monster to bed and get rid of most of the HUD, except for the dials and the message log. I never use the actual controls for time compression (lol, who actually uses the mouse to go down from 4096x to 1x), nor do I use the icons for nav map, log and whatnot. Nor do I have any use for the ridiculous indicators at the top which drive me to fits of homocidal rage.
