Cheers in advance

I haven't actually looked into that yet, it may require scripting to do that. And I'm afraid I have no skills in that department.

Thank you ! I am downloading...

PS: did you received my mail?

??? Hi maltro sre you refering to the stadimeter issue as discused in your thread, if so alas no I havn't figured out that one. Previous update was just to update a tanker that had its info ommited.

I've been playing about trying with the editior and the XO page for the recognition manual trying to get thing to work but have had no luck.
Managed to kill my installation of SH5 though (Just reinstalled).

hi!

i want to know is the data accurate for the UK carrier is correct or not.
it seems the draft is around 7.7 to 8m, but it showed @ 8.2- 9.02m?

i am not sure if i choose a wrong ship

All values are taking from the cfg file for each ship. At the moment we know that the stadimeter is not lining up with the mast heights shown, so there is a problem in game that the masts don't match the ones in cfg file, this could be true of the draft.
I have tried a few in game and the draft on the cfg file matches that as reported by the Torpedo dept selector in game.
I don't know if there's a way to export the models yet to get definitive measurements.

Sorry Reaper, I thought you have released the mod you have told me (with the corrected manual wich show us where to do our statement)...

Happy to have this manual too, now I know the tonnage of my target before she sink!

So I continue to make my drawing waiting for better means...

I bet they goofed the numbers in the cfg file myself. The height in the cfg for some ships may be more right than others.. which is why the location to take the reading from ship to ship is all over the place.

Thats my theory anyway.

Hi Reaper

My post is not criticism of your work - we are happy with your more helpful, better version of recognition book than previous (original) but you know, this book is not good readable (small, ugly), without solutions known in SH3/SH4 (standard view / other angles view.

My proposal is: maybe could you help AOTD_Rhonen for his version of recogition book? His version based on original idea known in SH4 and his solution is most most better than "original" small and ugly book.

His version of book:

Dude, you need to offer up that sweet scope mask as a mod. I'm tired of looking at the stock one.

Its the "Return of the Asses"-mod from the german subforum

Thanks Maltro, No that was just a mock up to show could be done to show the point on ship for correct stadimeter reading. This would have to be found for each ship.
Yes if you want to send me your drawings when done I could draw the points on to each ship page.
Have you noticed if the reading at 1x and 4x zoom are the same?

No criticism take from that Antar. Yes I prefer the look of Book type from SH4/SH5. But not having scripting skills I gave up trying to get it to work in the editor - Just went the graphics route and added the info to each ship page in photoshop.
AOTD_Rhonen ran into difficulty with his recognition mod at the time, and so this mod was a way for people to have something better than stock.
I would be glad to help AOTD_Rhonen or anyone with there mods in any way I can.
After all its for the Benefit of us all.

How can i have access to the identification manual in the game ?

[Fifi]

Depends what interface you are using.
Stock vanillia, NewUIs, or Magui?
Stock, i think you have to lock target, then clic the type of boat in XO window.
NewUIs, you have to clic soan icon top right tool bar.
Magui, you have to call the captain icon bottom left, and then choose the manual in the list...
