thanks for your answer. Yes, I click on the target icon and then on the weapons officer's periscope icon, but I only get the generic warship or merchant

that don't sound right you might have to deactivate it in jsmge then reactivate see what happens

Hello,
does anyone happen to know how to change the tactical map screen postion, as discussed here?
I prefer to disable GUI elements, but on 1440p the minimap button is only moved up, beyond 1080 pixels as I imagine. This is not enough fo higher resolutions.
Thanks!

...but not really, unfortunately. The workaround to the problem suggested there is to turn the minimap on, because the OP apparently didn't know he had it disabled by mistake.
What I need is to change its position. This is because TAI, even when turned on, switches to off mode with EssentialControlsScroll = True (MultipleUIs OF). When TAI is OFF, it is not actually disabled, but only pushed up beyond the screen (1080p?). I think the solution is to find out where exactly this position is specified and simply change it to a value more in line with 1440p resolution.

Examples:

left controls panel hidden

left controls panel hidden, TAI open

Minimap is ON in all above screenshots.

Notice the TAI thingy in the top left corner. It disappears only when TAI is actually open, which is not ideal :arrgh!:

Hey all! Does this mod have any extra mods somewhere that could reduce graphical intensity/boost performance/reduce effects or any mod that could help low-end PC's increase fps?
My specs - 4gig ram, intel HD graphics

doubt you going find anything like that best thing to try be like quickboost or a program like enditall how bad fps are you getting

I'm getting about 20-30 most of the time. There are annoying times when I get 7-15 though like when I'm using UZO or any periscope

SH5 needs a low powered and independent GC, and TWoS a medium powered GC. It doesn´t work well with integrated GCs. I obtain 60 FPS (fixed to 30 FPS via Nvidia Inspector), my PC is a medium powered machine, not a top notch.

Haven't seen these radio log messages before but while on my rather uneventful first patrol (1 ship sunk in 1 month), i finished my patrol orders and was ordered to a new patrol grid.

Once I got there I was given another captain log message to rendezvous with a uboat to take over convoy shadowing duties (AMAZING!). But is this just for flavor or was it an encounter possibility? Unfortunately my navigator completely went bonkers when I tried to position myself in the area of the rendezvous and never got there on time.

That was never in the vanilla right?

4GB of ram is not really enough Windows 10 alone takes a big chunk of that older operating systems use a little less, the consequence is your Hard drive starts doing the job of memory once its used up and that is ultra slow.

The minimum specs for SH5 says 1 gb of RAM but that seems ridiculous to me. It also states this is with a dedicated graphics card.

Ram is probably one the less expensive components which gives a lot of bang per buck but older ram can be hard to get hold of depending on age

Reducing shadows can big a big help but I guess you may have already tried that. Another this worth considering is " Reshade" https://steamcommunity.com/app/39338...5176712260072/ this give you a lot more scope with graphics settings in particular shaders and sometimes ( not always a FPS gain. ) I seem to remember some doing a Reshade profile on this site.

Have you considered getting a Dedicated GPU ? Even an entry level one would be a big help.

This subject come up before this post by VDR may help https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/sho...d.php?t=213796 I'm not sure if its still relevant VDR could assist with that.

Hi, is there any chance to extend the time compression further than 1024?

Go into the main.cfg in the SH5 documents folder and edit it there. If you played all the other SH games, the max time compression was 8192. It basically multiplies itself from one by two. So 1x2= 2, 2x2=4, 2x4=8, 8x2=16... you get the idea.

I noticed the download have been updated. Is it worth a reinstall? Anything changed?
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/dpd...1ycn/TWoS_v2.2
2020 11 30 and the other one which I have installed was uploaded on 2020 11 28 if I remember right.
Thank you in advance and thank you for developing the mod. :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up::Kaleun_Applaud::Kaleun_Cheers:


Good observation...:up: I was updating some documentation files and description of some optional mods. Nothing to be quite worthy of version change...



Soon I'll upload official version 2.2.21 and announce the changes...:yep:

YES!!! I am so excited for this! It has been maybe 3-5 months since we last had an update. :up::yeah:

Install
 
Think I missed clicking "yes" on a few of the items.

Is there a way to re-install WOS without deleting the whole game?

Was a brand new steam install, no other mods.

LesBaker 12-02-20 02:52 AM

Only if you don't want the game to run properly, you must follow the instalation sequence to the letter to have a game that performs correctly.

TAI
 
1 Attachment(s)
Is the TAI map supposed to be unusable in Wolves of Steel?

On my WOS game, the TAI map is there but is upper left corner of screen and not fully visible. Using TAB to go to large version of TAI doesn't work either. I can see the TAI expanding with TAB only horizontally, but most of the TAI is off the screen (top). I can expand the TAI box, but only right and up. Tis like the game thinks the TAI map is lower left of screen.

Not able to drag the map to another position either. when I hold the mouse down on the TAI, nothing happens. However, when I hold mouse down a bit below the map a hand appears that looks like a "drag" tool. But nothing when happens when trying this hand tool that only appears below the current TAI position.

Is this a resolution problem or is TAI broke with SH5 WOS?

Using 2k resolution, default 16X9.

Attached screen shot which shows the TAI in medium mode in upper left. (using TAB).

Please help.

Press small "toggle TAI Visibility" button few times, located above depth meter on the left side of your screen.. .The cause for this glitch ishigh resolution settings.
From quick start manual and tips documentation...Read the rest at least once as well.:yep:
