Have you find a solution for that problem http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...postcount=1089

Because I have to fail-safe and use something that I know everyone is using. By using the stock game message engine I know there will be no problems/compatibility issues

Kalleblom · 09-10-12, 07:50 AM

Aaaah, i see

That makes sense.

=TFO=Katarn · 09-10-12, 08:40 AM

Ok this might be a dumb question but i`m puzzled...I just saw in Kalleblom`s modlist he`s got TDW`s patcher last.
The hexeditor was to be used on a unmodded sh5.exe if i remember correct,doesn`t that apply to the patcher too?
With other words: is it possible to install the patch after other mods in JSGME?

Kalleblom · 09-10-12, 09:03 AM

Now you irritated me. Until now it works and with enabling it at last, I patched the copied "stock"files by making a mod before enabling this one and then the JSGME overwrites the 3 related "stock"files in the game folder.

I also thought that no MOD(except the patcher-MOD

) can overwrite the sh5.exe, SH5Collision or the SH5Sim, so where could be a Problem?

Except for this fact, i patched the 3 files after playing some missions with my old Mod-List and this worked too. Those related 3 files are, after modding, the same files from stock, date 21042010.

=TFO=Katarn · 09-10-12, 09:24 AM

Hey Kalleblom it was never my intention to irritate anyone,it was just a question,perhaps i should have made the question without mentioning you or your modlist.Thx for the reply,but no need to be irritated so fast

I will `copy` your patch-method,thx.

Kalleblom · 09-10-12, 09:38 AM

Oh, it´s ok

I did not understand it negative.
For that my english is too bad

But after installing a hundred of times and starting a new carrer feel like 200 times, everything which can causes a new intallation, a new carreer or just ctd will always irretated me.

BTW: it´s not my method, i took it from here.

Except enabling at last. But as i say, see no problems. For certainty this would require a pro.

Just encountered BAD Depth Under Keel issue.
Current Course = 0 (Heading away from Malta in deep channel area)
Current Speed = 1 knts
Current Depth = 110m
Reported Depth Under Keel = 35m
I am running aground at 110m
External View it appears bottom is at least 35m below keel.

Wish that Sitting on Bottom Patch worked.
IMO, I think this issue is related more to the World 3D Model and World Hidden 3D Collision Model not being the same.
Or, Submarine 3D Model has Hidden Bones extending below Keel that are some how linked to Submarine Hidden Collision Model.
Or, combination of both.
At any rate, this is a really bad Bug that UbiSoft should fix. Like thats going to happen...

Hello @ all

one thing i noticed when decks awash. There are some options which cannot be used, because the system thinks it´s submerged. Crew is on the bridge, door is open, but binoculars doesn´t work and some functions of the ship detection (depth) not worked. Also the displays switch from Diesel to Batterie (but only the display, running on Diesel work!)

Some issue are ok, because i don´t need to use my binocculars, because the deckgun is not usable at decks awash, logical.

But if there´s any which has to work and the problems are not normal or logically related i´m happy about any idea.

THE_MASK · 09-11-12, 05:31 AM

There has to be a trade off otherwise you would use it all the time

Kalleblom · 09-11-12, 07:12 AM

Thx sober

,

have now problem with to be trade off in this case. Only interest's sake, because some of the noticed issues in this forum lead back to an user mistake. Only want to be sure.

And once more thank´s alot for your modlist thread, helped very well. Can´t use all of them, but this give an amateur a great red thread to figure a personel mod list out.

Yours faithfully

Kalle

Radar shuts down a lot due to Operational Depth for Radar Station.
I have tried changing Operation Depth for Radar Antenna and Radar still shuts off if Submerged Warning Icon is triggered.
I could not find where this is configured so most likely this is hard coded in EXE.

I might just automate this (creating of Patched files folder and copying of files) in next version of the patcher

Will do. I will create this folder...

This stuff is great. Can't wait to see the Wolfpacks.
One more thing; Ok, I created a file called patches that I keep in the SH5 main folder that contains only the current patcher.
However, I thought that since I've already patched this it would be too late to do this as the SH5.exe, SHCollisions and SHsim have already been patched?! Wouldn't I have to Disable the Patcher first?

What awesome work TDW!!

But I seem to have an issue now with mag detonators.
When I was playing at the beggin of the year using the MMM mod, the mag detonators worked great.

Now I'm using a moded version of Sober's mod-soup, and when playing the TDW TorpTutorial (selected through Historical missions, not running he tutorial scripts) the torpedo passes right under the Liberty Cargo ship.

I have applied the sh5.exe patches you have made and have copied over the files in my SH5 directory with the ones provided in Magnetic_Detonators_4m.zip.

Any ideas??

My System Specs and mod-soup are linked in my signature. Thanks

volodya61 · 09-12-12, 12:21 AM

You should enable Magnetic Detonators 4m like a mod after the FX Update

About BdU-Uboat, Uboat-BdU and Uboat-Uboat radio communications:

http://www.uboat.net/articles/35.html
http://www.uboatarchive.net/KTBNotesCommunications.htm
http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/ETO/.../SRH025-8.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goliath_transmitter

Seems that U-boat radio equipment was able to intercept VLF signals even underwater, at variable depths depending on the distance from the transmitter.

I am still looking for a complete list of HF/VLF radio transmitters used by Kriegsmarine with their respective power/range. Does anyone know where I can collect this information?
