Hi guys... Im pretty new here, but I have found vis a lets play video on you tube that I need some new UI. I tried to download thedarkwrath but it does not work. Can this be due to the fact im running win 8.1?

Can anyone help?

Hi Gruber

It should work ok with win8.1

A common issue is that the mod is placed within a MODS folder when you download it. So after extracting - look inside and find the folder called TDWs new ui. To check this is the correct one - the very next folder down must have a data folder.
So then use JSGME to install

What did you look at in the JSGME signature link? Looks like double folder issues? Give us a modlist, too.

Ok, my installation of SH5 was faulty. After a reinstall of the whole game, the mod worked perfectly fine.
I obviously did fiddle around with some files when I first installed the game (maybe revert the mouse axis, cause that is now different with the new install...), that was back in 2010 though and I did not remember anymore.

As it had nothing to do with the mod, admins please feel free to delete my posts therefor. Sorry for the hassle caused!

Thanks for your help, Mikemike47!
Best Regards

They could if they want to. Admins would probably leave this information on the server in hopes of helping others.

Hey guys, having some difficulty there. I am able to get the UI working fine but it changes my player movement from WASD to arrow keys. I cant seem to locate where i can change it back to the default WASD. Any thoughts / help?

Ahoy there!

So after taking a break from SH5 for a while I decided to get back into it.... again.....

Anyway, I have a slight issue or maybe I did something wrong, but when I ask the Navigator to do a Celestial Fix he stops because the boat is underwater. Even though the boat is surfaced and travelling. I have noticed that it says I am submerged when a tiny (by tiny I mean less then a glass worth) of water breaks over the hull.

Is this intended or have I mess something up on installing the Wolves of Steel mega mod?

I am sorry if this has been asked before, but after 5 pages of scrolling in this thread I had to ask before I lost my mind on the 700th page.

The Navigator needs a clear sky so he can see the stars to get a Celestial Fix.

That's the thing, the skies are clear. It is actually the water level as I said in my post. It's like the game thinks I am submerged when a small wave breaks over the bow. Even though the depth meter does not go below 5-6m.

It also just seems to happen when under TC4. If I speed time TC up past that it gives me the full fix duration. Just curious if it was a bug or something.

You must be in heavy seas. Either wait till the seas are calmer or increase the speed of your boat so that it's more riding over the waves instead of riding in them.
