Decks awash should be 7m, and it usually shows the depth under 7m. Fully surfaced is 6m, usually showing 5+. So it does seem like your sub is lower in the water than usual, making the problem with the gun even worse.

Indeed so now it's hard untill i RTB and get repaired to find out whats causing this.. Damage.. i have 0 flooding so i mean i don't know the seas i nthe weather report are calm i'm Dumbfounded by this issue i really don't know what more i cna do to help you help me. but it does seem like i'm not aloen reporting this. And this isint my frist time playing this game ive never had trouble with the gun like this b4. The only thing i cna think of thath as changed from the last tiem i played is the UI and the EXE patch.

I don't have the patch installed, so maybe someone that does can verify whether it changes depth values for surfaced and decks awash. I know there are mods that do change where the sub sits in the water for more realistic experience in rough seas, and maybe more historical accuracy.

OK guys i'm back to port now and ive dissabled all the UI mods and all the EXE patcher mods and now my boat sits higher i nthe water now i can see the Anker at the front of the ship.. b4 it was fully submerged. So i'ts somthing defo i nthe Patcher or UI.

I will try to enable the UI with out the patcher and see. More to come

OK so it seems that it was the TDW exe patch.. i'm at port nowwith the UI eneabled and it still sits properly in the water. Now as for what specific option in the patcher causes this.. at this point i don't care ive had it up the ying yang of stuff not working so i just diecded to not enable the patcher at all. It seems it breaks more stuff than it fixes.

Of course Generic Patcher fix more stuff than braking them...
If installed correctly, all is fine and run without troubles.
Do not activate all the patches! Some of them can give CTDs on some rigs.
Try them one by one if needed!

Well i Havent had a single CTD so CTD's arnt my problem. But my stuff has ben behaving weirdly. As i nthe boat sits deeper lil things like that. But Just a heads up for the people still tryign to figure this out. I started a new patrole with the SH3 interface this time and the depth seems to be right whiel on the surface since i use the Needle instead of the enhanced interface. O_O so i dunno what i did to fix it but the sub behaves properly now O_O!

Default Dials not working

Hello everyone!

First, thanks alot to all the modders for their wonderful work.

Since i don't want to waste your time, now to the problem i got:

After one year of absence i wanted to play SH5 again. Last year i was playing with New UIs 6.9.0 and various other mods and everything was fine. Now i wanted to update to 7.4.2 and the problems started. I got CTDs (that can be a result of other, new mods though) and the round dials are missing. I guess i tried every solution i can think of, but no success so far:
Here's what i've done until now:

- unpacking (7-zip) the file again and recopying into the MODS folder
- downloading, unpacking and copying the files again
- disabling all mods and activating "NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_ByTheDarkWraith" only
- checking drivers and other system stuff for actual versions and updating them if possible
- today i uninstalled SH5 completely, deleted any remaining files (except Savegames), reinstalled it, patched it to 1.20 and launched it with no mods but "NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_ByTheDarkWraith" enabled

And still no success. The mod is obviosly working, the pictures of the officers, the bar with diary, radiolog and all the other stuff is where it should be, but still no dials. For the testing i use it with default setup, i only replaced the dials.dds and menu.txt (to the german one) before activating it via JSGME. The (unedited) TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py shows UIStyle=SH5Enhanced of course.

My system:
IntelCore2Duo E6850
8 GB of RAM
Geforce 8800 GTS 512
Windows 7 Professional 64bit

I doubt that any hardware components are damaged since the missing dials are the only problem at the moment.

Therefore any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

When faced with an issue like this - the only way forward is to uninstall all mods and then test TDWs UI only.
This way you will now if:-
  1. another mod was causing it
  2. default options setting work
  3. edited options setting work

Thanks for the answer so far.

But after reinstalling the game i tried it with new UIs only. Result remains the same. The dials are missing. Now,after your message i even tried deleting all mods out of the MODS folder. Still no better result.

What i simply don't understand is why it was working with 6.9.0...

From the newui's Dials folder:

Quote:
; Edited by TheDarkWraith for NewUIs_TDC_7_4_0
; Edited on 5/19/2013 @ 1730


select appropriate 'Dials.dds' (or use your own!) and place in 'MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_3_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Menu\G ui'. Do this before enabling mod!
If there is a folder inside called 'TDC' then you have to copy the files in that folder to 'MODS\NewUIs_TDC_7_3_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Menu\G ui\TDC'. Do this before enabling mod!
Dunno if applicable ?
