[WIP] Mega-Mod for SH5

[Cpt. Komarsky]

I have no idea how to instal patch 2! OK I copied main mod Magnum opus in my MODS folder. Now i want to instal patch so there are folders: Anti-Lag, Maps, MODS, NVidia missing lights, Shadows, Text. If i open MODS there is again folder Magnum Opus but i can not copy it in my MODS folder because patch folder have the same name as main s.mod and i dont want to overwrite it. Do i need to copy every single file from patch in main s.mod or...?

Just rename the patch folder (put P2 on the end) and copy to mods folder, then apply with JSGME.

mods: opsMag(patched->2);remove shadows; acs5.0; aildeckwave1.0; dbsm music1.5; free cam tweak1.1, open horizon; reduced mission ton; keyboard german 0.6.. any thoughts?

is there a simple way to get back to stock special abilities.

regards.

Hi,
- aildeckwave1.0 unnecessary imho, as Magnus Opus with patch 2 has the best seawaves already (several related mods incorporated)
- free cam tweak1.1 not necessary imho, better free view already incorporated by TDW, 2nd icon from left in camera bar center top of screen
- keyboard german 0.6 probably not compatible with MO/TDW's UI mod, which uses stock Commands.cfg. Must make sure not to conflict with TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py. I have fixed that in my very own German keyboard mod with F1 help displays with German key texts. Even Function key commands work.

Hi ustahl,

are you the same member in the SH5-Forum?

Have you already cheched my german keyboard mod?
I think, I have a little problem with the german key-mod and MO/TDW.


@TDW
This is really a Mega-Mod Thanks!


regards.

What do you mean with " super marks"

Hi.

Im not saying this is the answer to your problem, but, after loading patch 2 and firing up SH5, it took me to the title screen, where i started a new campaign, no sooner had i appeared in the Sub-pen, it CTD...i looked in my tray at the bottom of my screen (where you find the 'Start' / Shutdown etc) and the Ubisoft logo of the internet connection starter was there. clicking on it, sent me straight back to the Pen, where everything has worked since then!

As for 'Super marks', its a map tool whivh im not aware off its use...i.e. not related to your posts.

4. To the left of the "Save" button is another button named "Code"
5. Select the coding of your choice (Unicode)
6. Press "Save"

That's it

But what do you mean by "user options in SH5/data not MODS"?
As far as I know there should not be an options file.
Do you really have a "TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py" file there?

Thanks for the heads up.
Before we start im using W7 x64 incase that makes a difference, but yea, i altered the userOptions file in C/Ubisoft/SH5/MODS/MAgnum_Opus/scripts/useroptions, opened as notepad and saved the same, which made no difference, then i tried doing the same with Patch 1 userOptions file and then patch 2, all of which did nothing!!

As a last bid i looked in C/Ubisoft/SH5/data/scrips/menu/optionsfile and altered there...bingo, all changes are in-game!

The only problem is when i install the next patch if there is one, i might have to go through all the changes (of which there are now many) again.

ok. but any suggestions about the freezes? do u think it has something to do with the mod-order? need help!

Hi,

For editing TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py and other configuration files I propose to use the free ConTEXT editor (http://www.contexteditor.org/), which you can easily set to specially edit Pyhton (.py) files. It is much clearer to use and no ANSI/Unicode hassle like with Notepad.
After trying it one time I never went back to edit .py flies with Notepad.

It might be helpful if you'd post the exact & complete activated mod list from JSGME. Tasks... export activated mod list... to clipboard and past here. Also any additional info if/what changed inside any mod from its original mode.

Edit.:
Re stock abilities: I don't remember them to have worked properly, and I didn't like the stock layout anyway (eg. WASD etc.), so I made my own key mod, which works with TDW/MO as I want it to, including F-keys.

Hi Ruby,
Yes, that's me allright - we've met on the other side (im Jenseits )!
And yes, I've tried your German key-mod last autumn, but due to discrepancies with TDW's UI mod, I used that as a basis for making my own key-mod "Tastatur_SIA_1.1_De", which I also infused to the SIA megamod on the other side, maybe you remember?
I've made it v.1.2 since, and I'm using it with TDW/MO without any problem.
Machen wir hier weiter, oder im Jenseits?

where is the link to patch 1?

[Topo65]

Link to Patch 1 must be deleted by TDW when he post the Patch 2 in the first post.
