Thanks Fun to get quick response. No, it did not work either. I have probably tried most but nothing

Use mast, not flags...
Your megamod is not installed correctly. Chech install instructions once again and reinstall the game. Generic patcher?

Important news - thanks!

:subsim:

Yes, you were right. I had missed "Generic patches".
But now I have the next problem, I've installed the game and followed the instructions "by the book". I'm coming to the main menu but the game crashes when I start a new campaign.
Anyone who has a good solution?

Hi Stellan

No, you still have an installation problem as your game is crashing.

I have just installed TWOS again and I agree with Stellan that I cannot get the engines to work independently of each other.
Disengaging one makes no difference both engines continue to function and is also shown on both telegraphs.
From 0 knots disengaging one engine and ordering a speed both telegraphs are static and nothing happens.

It works for me, Peter. I need to stop to 0 knots and then after turning off one shaft, only one engine is working - like it should be.

:hmmm:

Hi excel
That is interesting why it is working for you but not for us.
At All Stop showing 0 on the telegraph disengaging one prop and ordering a speed nothing happens.
Both telegraphs have to move before there is any movement.
Strange.

Removed the VIIB mod and tested with the default VIIA boat with the same result.
Started from Memel bunker with 1 prop disabled but both engines running.

Retested with new TWOS install and changed SH3 Ui to SH5 advanced.
Same problem with a difference.
Boat is showing moving with 1 prop at 7 knots.

The telegraph is at all stop and the engines push rods are not moving.

I don't think I have AOB down. Assume I'm running a a parallel course with a vessel. Would my AOB be from what I can see out of my periscope (ie 90 degrees) or from my 0 (ie 180 degrees).

The AOB is the bearing the other ship has your submarine on.

So if a ship is coming directly towards you the AOB will be 0 because they see you on a bearing of 0. If the ship is going away from you the AOB will be 180, because they see you on that bearing.

So in your example, if you would be running directly parallel to a ship, same course, same speed, and you have them on your 90°, the AOB will be 90° port, because the ships captain will see your sub if he looks out of his left window. Hope I could help.

Perfect, thanks!

I was having trouble with a convoy, my distance was the biggest factor in me missing after having replayed it a few times.

While in the end I managed only to manage to hit one ship (a European Liner, 19000 tons), it was still super satisfying!

My independent engine setting works.Same procedure as Excel

Same here...Although the function it self doesn't have much value in normal game play, I can confirm that it works as intended...

Note Peter that engine , telegraph and sound animations are influenced only bay port engine iirc, but rpm indicators and shafts follow independent engine settings correctly. This is how TDW implemented this feature...

Thanks Vecko I will check it out.
