Default TWoS Manual

I know I read that a manual for this mod is forthcoming. Is there a timeline on this. It would really be helpful. Like Grey Wolves, there's so much to this mod it really needs a reference.


Thanks.....

While I don't want to put any pressure over vdr1981's shoulders while he is working on a TWoS manual, I share Macgregor's views on the need of such a manual, not only as a guide for TWoS users, but also as a general reference for modders who want to make their mods compatible with TWoS

A TWoS Manual would be the best ever add-on for this mod, and SH5 in general
A good description about the TDW interface and all the scrollable instruments and tools, plus different possibilites to setup the game (in the OFEV, in the game itself) would be enough already, other things are already well-explained in the numerous single docs that come with TWoS.
But a traditional pdf manual with all-in-one information also with nice and helpful images, that would be great.

I didn't want to sound like I was putting pressure on vdr1981. I was just curious. All his work on TWoS basically created a new sim that is playable and so much better than the 'out of the box' SH5.


Macgregor sends bravo zulu to the TWoS team!

hello XS there is no special documentation "TWoS - OptionsFileEditorViewer" which explains in detail all the options of each function there are only a few threads but there is not a complete Pdf on this theme
maybe I have to miss something .... because I would like to know how to adjust so that during the periscopic immersion there is a speed not to exceed as for the snorkel of the options as in HSie ... a blow of hand would be welcome thank you

Nor I was suggesting that you are doing so. My apologies for giving you that impression. Knowing how much in the past I have pestered Vecko with my unrequested suggestions, my preamble was referred mostly to myself
