Recognition Manual mod?

trias10 · 05-25-10, 06:36 AM

Would anyone happen to know if there is a mod for SH5 that alters the way the recognition manual works?

In stock SH5, you have to click on the WO's head in the periscope view, tell him to turn on the TDC, lock onto a ship, and then he click on the ship he thinks he sees.

Is there any mod which changes this to a system more in line with SH3, where all you need to do is simply lock onto a ship and it tells you it's stats (assuming auto targeting rules)? Ideally, I would like to leave the TDC off, and just lock onto a ship and have the recognition manual pop right up telling me the draft, just like in SH3 with auto targeting rules.

If anyone knows of a such a mod and could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!

There was this one, but doesn't look like it's been updated since it was rolled into the two major UI mods already.

So I'd HIGHLY suggest using either reaper7's High-Res UI mod or TheDarkWraith's NewUI + TDC since both are spectacular and both have the upgraded rec manuals.

Aye, reaper7's recog manual is up to version 2.0 in his UI mod. Trias10, I am pretty sure you already know this, but I will say this just in case. UI means "user interface", and one of the aforementioned mods will completely change the way you command the sub/crew.

Edit: Welcome aboard by the way!
