-The Taff in Exile series of videos using TWOS has a ship recognition book that after making an ID lets you send mast height to the TDC to make effective use of the stadimeter. This also seems to have handy features like filtering by stack position. When I bring up the ship recognition reports in my game, I get a couple of filter selections, then double page single images full of of ships at 45 deg. with names and data so small they are almost impossible to read. These pages also seem to be devoid of many ships in game. But even if I can squint enough to use these, I see no way to send the listed mast height to the TDC.

-in the recommended TheNorseCast videos listed in the quick start manual, the bridge binocular view has a proper single circle view sans bearings. When I bring up binocs (zoom with mouse wheel), I get a "fake" double circle view with embedded bearings.

Just dipped my toes out of Memel in the first patrol, but I'm already kinda stuck with the mast height issue since that is so crucial to getting ranges to set up attacks, and concerned that a few things I see in videos are not as I see them in game.
Can you post a screenshot of your recognition manual please?

I have none of the TWOS additional mods installed with TWOS-JSGME. I have not made any changes with the TWOS - OptionsFileEditorViewer.

There is nothing wrong with what you see. I watch those Taff in exile videos too! His version is old, and many updates have been made. The Exile recognition book was from the original vanilla SH5, but that was removed to give a solid book like SH3.

If you want to send the mast height, then I assume you are using help from the XO. You have to lock onto the target with X, then you can click on the words "send mast height to TDC" at the bottom of the rec book.. Otherwise you can manually range using math or the RAOBF wheel.

I agree with you on the Bino's. I had TWOS version 2.2.2 and that looked great. 2.2.10 removed it and gave us the new one you see today.

It should not be devoid of ships! It should have lots! The rec book has tons of ships.

All is well. I figured out where the little tab to grab the recognition manual was by default on the left side of the screen. The charts with ships are apparently just an additional reference. Thanks for the input, and Tonci87, your video on the RAOFB and attack disc was a huge help.
