Hello my fellow captains!!

i have a little trouble whit the campaign_radiomessages text file i dont now how to get it to send the coded messages in game!!??

i understand how to code the messages and i now how to encrypt them whit the EME .

i have tested this
19400324 0001 19400331 2300 1 20 1 0 0 -1 all BDU 0001/24/3 25||XNSL XDYX NQYT VIUY NVVL CJLE OIXT UBYU BUMT KPRF GKWG RUAG HBXQ TLDJ YSOR FRKP YFTQ NKKV WIWT SVFG EBRB EPYL NLDI XNSL XDYX
but still don't get anything while in game?

if someone could explain it a little more detailed, ore better upload a file whit some coded messages a would appriciate it enormously!!

cant wait to get this to work its an awsome mod that makes this game even more the game that it could and should be..

I finally got my radio messages through!

***capt blueballs, make sure you have a TAB space between each of the fields until the main message body.

Like kevinsue said, check for the tab delimiters. I'd suggest using Notepad++ or any other text editor that has the show tabs option.

Yea that was it!! got it rolling now thank you very much Kevinsue and Skybaron much appreciated!!

Just wondering if the updated version was part of TWOS Update 16.1 or still in the pipeline?

All future Enigma versions will be released through TWoS updates. If you install Update 16 or above you won't need the old version that was on this thread.

Can someone explain to me how to use the Enigma, I tried reading the instructions but I kept getting confused and stuck. I can't figure out the bloody first step!

I had a similar problem , I guess...

Are you struggling to determent GO=?? OK=?? SW=?? RC=??

Does this image ringing any bells? As you can see in this example GO=HF. This is just an example, it is not necesery that in your message GO is equal to HF...

Not sure if you are looking at the ingame instructions or reading the manual but just in case you're not aware, have a look in your SH5 directory for the Wolves of Steel - Documentation folder and find the latest edition of the Enigma manual. Here is the address:

C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\The Wolves of Steel - Documentation\SkyBaron's Enigma M4\SkyBaron's Enigma M4 manual 1.02.pdf

This manual is very comprehensive and sets out every detail on how to decrypt the Enigma messages step by step with coloured illustrations for each example. I know I would have saved myself a headache decoding Enigma messages if I had remembered to read the new documentation provided when I updated to TWOS Update No16.

THEBERBSTER · 08-27-16, 04:43 PM

The manual is a tucked away and not easy to find at first as I expected it to be with the mod.
