Click the Radioman icon. Select the Reports icon. Click on the send contact report icon above it And yes sending contact reports in can sometimes cause Bdu to send you a contact report back of a contact near you

It is just and idea - I`m not good in this, so I`d like just to ask.
Is it possible to add this improvements for better accuracy - speed and deep.
If I missed something - sorry


Now you can change the course by scrolling (about 5 degrees - it`s depends on the mouse settings - I think - more accuracy step by one line up/down - am I right?). On the screen right on the bottom.
Best regards,
Kurtz

Don't understand what you're asking

Continued the campaign an found a convoi of 7 ships with a destroyer. I sunk the destroyer first, no DM. Sunk the freighters (7) and ended up with 2 new DMs on the map. I am having the feeling that it might be related to the ship (the type, the tonnage) or something. But that is only a wild guess. I saw, however, that the DMs that do appear, seem to be always of the same shiptypes...

Sorry...

I meant to add new function for mouse. When you put mouse above this bars and scroll mousewheel to change value (speed and the deep by scrolling). Is it possible? I`d like scroll on the horizontal bar (green) for deep - more precise, faster? And the same for speed on the vertical bar (black) - not by clicking

Might have possibly found another way to get the destroyed units. If everything works then the destroyed marks will be displayed at the exact location where the unit was destroyed. It will also be able to discern type of unit and whether friendly, foe, or neutral. It will also be able to tell you the depth the unit was at when it was destroyed (good for AI subs). Coding and testing currently. I will be using another DLL that I created to make this work (hopefully)

Would it be possible to pull some info from the save game file in real time and display it in game . We really need damage bars or just display the line in yellow in game for the crew . I was thinking this line in the save game file . I might not be the right way to go about it .

Nice, looking forward to it!

By the way: I realized that many strings in the german menu.txt are not translated... Would you be interested if I would rework that file?

Absolutely. If anyone wants to translate into other languages or improve existing ones I'll incorporate them into the mod

Hi all,

After seeing the movie U-571 for the first time last weekend, the old love returned in full. (not because of the movie, I am just fascinated by U-boats)

Having dusted off my copy of 'U boat war patrol' I now want to do something interactive. So I bought SHV.

Although i noted it is 'different' from my beloved GWX'ed SHIII, i saw that there are some great mods around; this looks to be 'the one'.

Is the mod mentioned on page 1 of this huge thread the latest version?

Thanks in advance, and especially you TheDarkWraith for bringing this to the community.

For any mod I make the latest version is always found at post #1 of the thread

Ok, I translated the missing strings now (quite a few), but I am not sure if I always got the right context for it. So I will use the file to play some hours and then provide it to TDW (probably with some corrections)...

Any news on the DMs yet?

Still writing the DLL code so no news yet

Hi!

Btw, I did not take any of the strings from Ruby2000s DeutschMod, because I did not even think of it (stupid me!)... but anyhow Rubys file does contain much more Strings for the campaigns... What I did was just translate the file that is included in this Mod (NewUIs).

I also translated all strings (also the ones that were left in english in the DeutschMod). I feel that I have maybe done work again that has been done before now, but I thought of it too late...


@Ruby: If you would like to use the missing translated Strings for DeutschMod, I can send the file over...
