it's pretty simple if you look at it. Look where the obs scope is located - it's on the bottom floor of the sub. Look where the attack scope is located - in the con. There's an obvious height difference there.

It doesn't extend halfway, it extends exactly as far as it should. The scope tubes are about the same length overall and the difference in height is about 2 meters (difference between conning tower height and control room).

Here is a link to a scan of U-570's actual blueprints: http://www.uboatarchive.net/U-570Gen...idTaylorBW.htm

EDIT: Seems I wasn't quite quick enough there...

v4.0.4 released. See post #1 for details

Thanks for 4_0_4 , very nice . Regarding automation , would it be possible for me to travel at 128TC in navmap view then start automation (say the surface search) . It does the search at 1TC in 3D view and then goes back to navmap at 128TC once finished . And could i have this repeated at what ever time interval i choose ?

[Capt Jack Harkness]

Found a typo in the type VIIC's cfg file:

SurfaceDepth=5;6;meters

The VIIB's file reads:

SurfaceDepth=5;meters

As such, the VIIC appears to ride too low in the water.

Is there anyway to drop the game to 1TC when any message box messages appears ? TCxOnMessageBoxText doesnt quite do what i wanted it to which is drop the game to 1TC when friendly ships/planes appear . It works great though for other things like dropping down to 1TC when warnings appear etc so it is great but just not what i specifically wanted it for .

TDW, thx for this new update. I have a little suggestion... Can be possible to set the deck gun usage as it was in GWX ?

When i m in bad weather ( wind 15m/s ) i can send my crew to deckgun, or use it directly. It ll be great if the deckgun was disable during storm...

Sry for my poor english, i hope you ll understand

should be an easy change in the sub's .cfg file. At what wind speed and sea state is the GWX version set to in the sub's .cfg file?

I could easily add something that will drop you to TC1 on any messagebox entry. Wouldn't that get annoying though?
It sounds like there is a problem with the TCxOnMessageBoxText feature if it's not doing what you want it to do. Can you tell me what messages (the actual number from the menu.txt file would be great if possible) you're trying to get the feature to set TC1 on? I'd like to investigate why it isn't triggering on those messages.

have you checked the script to see if it's setting the TC to 1 during the search? I can tell you that the scope won't rotate fast enough at TC128 if you have a short sweep time (< 240.0) set.
Now the repeat at certain time interval can certainly be done. Right before the Loop command insert a Wait command with the desired value to wait to get the time interval you want.

don t remember it exactly, but i think a 10m/s wind must disable the deckgun.

the mod is packaged in a compressed file format, 7zip. You can download the free app called ZipGenius to decompress it. Do a google search for ZipGenius.
