I get 8-10 hours of sleep a day

Just found a HUGE bug Started a new campaign to watch the changes I made to the radio messages feature. Got out into the channel and saved game. Exited game. Restarted game and loaded where I left off. Checked radio messages and I had none (I did have 2 before I exited game) Problem fixed. Probably none of you all's radio messages were being saved at game exit in campaign.

v6.3.0 patch 1 released. See post #1 for details

Just thinking about it:

I had some strange encoded messages in the radio messages. Looks like some wrong displayed UTF-8 in case of Umlauts or something related... (I am using german version).

I noticed that in the first mod with new Radio messges. Few days patrol, saved, back and I got from first day and the current day new massages -just received 2 or 3. No more massege on 2-3 sites.

You right. Look into D:\Games\Silent Hunter 5\data\RadioMessages\English\1939\08\radiomessages .txt

I tried to retype each German word correctly... but after that I received only first message - not retyping... than radio go to absolutely silent.

Of course
By the way... Could you tell me... explain this. Some mods going outside the MODS folder JSGME - why?




And actually I`m not sure is it IN... - work ok or OUTside - not work

The reason is because you didn't install the scope mod correctly. This add-on mod 'NewUIs_TDC_6_3_1_Scopes (do not enable - open and read)' needs to be opened and then the scope mod you want to use has to be opened also. Either:
- Arclight_MRP
- emtguf_rework_scopes
- stock

Now contained in the folders above are the mods you put into your MODS folder. The folder 'patches' are patches that you have to apply to the folders above for your screen resolution before enabling.

Is this not clearly explained in the text fle How_to_enable_a_scope_mod?

Sorry... I read this above look into mod, choose what I wanted and than put into MODS.
OMG... Now I've done it again. I have written here is what I did (delete the text) and I got what I did wrong. Sorry... To exciting probably - too fast, forgive me
Back to beginning if you get lost.

they save automatically to a file: \Silent Hunter 5\ScopeSettings.TDW

Every restart they go back to default due to error in my code. I have put together patch 2 but am waiting on Trevally's work on the RAOBF graticules before releasing. Patch 2 addresses this problem and some others that I've found while starting a new campaign.
They go back to default because at game start I'm not applying what I read from the file to the scopes. So the information is getting saved and read from the file correctly just not applied at game start.

thanks for your continued efforts in creating a great sim

As far as the special characters I'll look into why they aren't displaying correctly.

Is your u-boat hull number displaying correctly in the new radio messages feature? That's the only one that matters.

SOAN's visibility is now controlled via the charts icon in the right side bar.

Yes U-30 recived message to U-30. Tried in the Hist mission
And I found the SOAN book

[Harmsway!]

Is there any way to change the command keys using this mod?
