Thank you Peter :salute:

offset tool helper
 

Hello Peter,
please excuse my late respond, RL ocupaded me.
Thank you for your support. My Problem with the Map tool helper is, if i wanna use a tool (for example the ruler) the inicial Point is offset of the Center of the marker/ruler/kompass.
Unfortunaly i can not find the Folder "Maps" in the OFEV

Greetings

It probably your modlist O.Kusch... Remove all non TWoS related mods and try again...:yep:

Hi Vecko,
thank you for your support. After removing all non TWoS related mods
the problem is continuing. But O.k. doesn't matter.
On this opportunity I would like to give you a big thank you for the great mod with which I can finally play SH5 in such a way that it is fun.

Did you followed installation informations carefully?

+ check resolution mods in JGSME (run TWoS_JSGME.exe in the game dir) and install proper resolution mod for you)

Hi O.Kusch!
IMHO a file that manages the position of the tools in the Map has wrong offsets. The file is: Mouse.cfg but it is difficult to set it if you don't know how.
If you know how to use JSGME which is called TWoS_JSGME in TWoS, you could try the "EQuaTool 03" MOD which contains all the tools for the Map and the related Mouse.cfg file that works very well with the right offsets and that I am using with The Wolves of Steel v2.2.17 Update. The MOD is "EQuaTool 03" which you have to unpack in the "TWoS_Parts" folder and then activate with "TWoS_JSGME". If it doesn't solve the problem, you can always turn it off. You can activate the mod at any time.
This is the link:

When you activate the MOD with TWoS_JSGME, you must always give Yes because the MOD modifies the pre-existing files, but you do not lose them if you deactivate the MOD with TWoS_JSGME.

This is the ruler e.g. and the other tools also have the same graphics.

Hi OK
Are you still having a paroblem with your map tools?
TWoS puts the OFEV as a shortcut on your desktop during installing.
What resoluttion is your monitor?
Opening the green compassshowing on the map and using the tools on the side should still give you accurate plotting.

Hello and good evening Peter, Palmic and Torpedo,
Good News, all work's fine now with the "EQuaTool 03" MOD, recommended by Torpedo and Tonci87.:yeah:
One more time Thank's a lot e Mille Grazie!
Greeting's e molti saluti from Uli

I'm glad the problem is solved!!!

Torpedo :Kaleun_Cheers:

Hallo again! A little Question. Does the Mod for the german language from Han2007 work good with Wolves of steel or I d better leave it?

Bei mir läuft es gut

Work's fine in my constellation. But observe : If you want to use it with the option to play it with the Real Navigation you must take out the English text-file in the Mod Folder Twos Real Navigation.
Don't forget to make a safe from the folder before you change anything! ( see below)

Greetings and a good start in the weekend from Uli

Danke! I was a little bit worried as in the upper left of the menu screen stands version 2.2.13 instead of 2.2.17. However the game seems to work properly.

Das ist der letzte Stand der Aktualisierung vom DeutschMod.Grüße

In my case it was not necessary to start a new campein with "Han2007 - Deutsch Fuer The Wolves Of Steel (GERMAN Mod)". I just done the modification O.Kusch told and it works fine for me and I can go forward with Mare Nostrum,


But I will change in this mod for the the entry "Windgeschwindigkeit xxx Meter pro Sekunden", because KN is for a submarine game like SH5 much better.

I finished the Coastal Waters campaign and got started on Happy Times. It started me at Wilhem so I took the first mission, which for me was to drop a spy up in Ireland. I worked my way there, sank some stuff, this was around June 20th. I dropped the spy off, sank some more, June 29th still no update to anything. July 1st rolls around and Lorient becomes the new hub. I sail down to Lorient, end patrol, get a mission (same atlantic area), but I still don't have a new sub. I'm still in the VIIA. What do I have to do to get the B? My sinking tonnage is 110,000 tons now and my merit, per KSD Commander, is 5,090. 13 merchants, 13 warships. I'm not sure what I'm missing in order to get them to issue me a new boat or even any upgrades at all (only upgrades available are 2 flak guns and the new hydro)

Hi Lawlcat,
What about your "rating" in KSDCommander. This is the most important part for new sub offers. I was talking about this numerous times...:yep: https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/sho...6&postcount=21

My rating is listed as 0 apparently

Pastebin here of the KSD output https://pastebin.com/QvHMzu38. I had 3 times that I started and ended trying to catch a specific date (Patrol #2 was an accident at the start as I was trying to figure things out, Patrol 7 was trying to get the time right for one of the missions that I thought I had to be at sea for, before I realized it was campaign and then one (Patrol 9) that I had just started and was ticking time through to the end of the campaign, which ended my patrol)

I dont know why my other patrols didnt really give me much rating. Is there a minimum tonnage per patrol to earn a rating point? Am I screwed at this point for the entire campaign to be stuck in the VIIA?

Ship sunk icons on map.
 

I am having an issue with the icons for sunken ships not going away after new patrols. The map is getting a little cluttered and I was wondering if there is any way to remove the icons myself. Also, not every ship I sink gets an icon which seems to be a good thing considering this issue I am having. Using steam version and latest version of TWoS.

Hey guys,


just catching up... it is always during winter when I am in the right mood and have time to spend some time at the sea....


By the way huge congratulations to all the great modders and people who are working on TWoS. I just followed the instructions (played TWoS several times in the past of course) and you couldn't really make it more straight forward than it actually is, even with that uPlay workaround I didn't have any issue installing this whatsoever. Thank you and hats off !!!


Question though: last time I installed this was on my previous gpu which was GTX 980 having some 48 fps approaching Kiel which I always considered the most harware demanding part of the map. Now with 8600K on 5.0 Ghz and RTX 2080 I made a test run and I had 56 fps within Kiel harbour.


Want to ask you guys whether it is normal to gain some 8 fps with such hardware? At the open sea the frames go nuts (200+), but my concern is Kiel. I know it's an old game running on old engine, but what I also noticed my gpu utilization is only about 30% with maximum performance set in nvCP. Also my gpu frequency keeps dropping even with max performance checked in nvCP.


Any ideas, please? Thank you.
