Having a blast wit the TWOS mod! Is there any other mods to improve upon it?


Also I got a annoying problem on my current atlantic patrol, no matter what the weather is the submarine gains the status submerged every 5-6 seconds due to the depth fluctuating and thus makes some utility like flak or radar not useable. Is there a fix for it?



Hi Mano,
Twos is very complicated alchemy, you'll be pretty lucky if you'll not brake it with extra mods.

Just tried it and everything runs fine now on 2560X1440!!

But as expected, everything looks quite small too...and the texts are too small for my old eyes :haha: (message box etc)



Hehe that's why i returned 4k display.
I play just old games and they are best in old resolutions :)

Okay thanks for the feedback I´m not planning to torpedo my installation.


Just hoped for something that improves on the crew interaction, perhaps adds more dialogue - even when without voice - adding somehow more depth to the crew management. Liked SH5´s idea of adding some RPG elements like skills and personal talk to the crew but in comparison to SH4 and its shift system I´ve the feeling that crew management is basically nonexistant and maintaining morale is a no brainer.


Regarding the being submerged for a sec problem... I have this situation since a month being on the Atlantic in September and normally always try to man my turmflak to be prepared which is then reseted. But of course it is perfectly believeable that the Atlantic is just that rough during this season.

In real life, some captains were waiting days and days (even weeks) for the sea to calm down.
I believe they were very angry sometimes against weather.
This is well transcripted in Buncheim book « das boot » :yep:

vdr, I saw in a previous post that in TWoS, the KDB hydrophone doesn’t replace the GHG, but is actually added onto it, so the boat uses both systems. I was wondering what your source was for this? I can’t find any info confirming or refuting how accurate it is.

THEBERBSTER do you by accident also have a state of the art SH4 FOTRSU mod list?

Hi Cybermat47,
Good question ! hopefully the information supplied by U-Boat Archive.net will answer it for you, this is an extract from the Users instruction for Type VIIC U Boats, the documents were found on board a captured U Boat in 1940.

Hope this puts your mind at rest

Can anyone tell me is it OK for Soviet civilian merchant ships from WW2 era to wear normal red instead of naval white ensign? I did the search on the internet but I couldn't find enough conclusive data.

According to wikipedia, the Red Banner was adopted as state and civil ensign, as well as state flag, on 12 November 1923.

Since its adoption, there have been several slight modifications of the flag; the version used during WWII shoul be this one:

Conversely, the naval ensign flown (only) on Soviet military vessels from May '35 to November '50, was this one:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...950%29.svg.png

So the short answer is yes, having the Red Banner on merchant ships and the white one on naval vessels is okay. What is not okay, is the position of the flags. According to another wikipedia article on maritime flags and flag eticquette:

Quote:

The position of honour on a ship is the quarterdeck at the stern of the ship, and thus ensigns are traditionally flown either from an ensign staff at the ship's stern, or from a gaff rigged over the stern.
This is an aspect that iambecomelife got right with his Merchant Fleet Mod for SHIII, but I am surprised that none of us naval history lovers and mod junkeys ever addressed for SH5. :D
