Default Target Lock-Unlock Function ?

Hi,
I just done a fresh install of the game.
Then I correctly enabled TWoS & it looks amazing.
But one question. Is there no Lock/Unlock function to lock onto a target while looking through a scope or the UZO like there was in stock game. Is there a key or am I missing something ?
If it is no longer part of the game, is there a way to get it back ?
Help would be appreciated.
Regards lowbow.

Default Updates

Hi Vecko,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I also men to ask about TWoS Updates. I see that the latest update is v2.0.8
My question is - Do I have to install v2.0.5 and v2.0.7 before I install v 2.0.8
Regards lowbow.

Default UI style

I know the other UI's perform better, but does the SH3 UI perform better than the SH4 UI?
I also thought I read somewhere that the other UI's don't support some feature in the game, but I can't remember, and now I can't find anything that says that. Is this true?

A new intro video can be mounted with a video from Das Boot. Too clear water at the surface, the boat should not be so transparent.

Lowbow, I am using Binoculars with bearing by Torpedo v1 with TWoS with no problems. I have not tried the other mod as I am happy with my setup.

I can see the silly morale stuff hasn't been removed, if possible. When it's drained the crew become practically incapacitated. How realistic is this? They don't gain morale by sinking ships either, also not very realistic.

I can not agree. What do you mean by "incapacitated"? Crew will still load torpedo tubes, report contacts, fire guns, send/receive radio reports ect, right?
Only some special abilities which would require non depressed, restful or highly moralized crewman will be restricted which is pretty much what would happen in real life as well IMO...

Only warships will boost your crew and add some moral. Otherwise it would be to easy. SH5 is the only game in the series where you actually have a reason to end your patrol after a month long patrol instead of just refitting...
