SH5: Bugs, glitches, and issues thread

[maco11]

hello.

my problem is that i dont' undestand how snorkel can be raised. it dont rise automatically when i go to periscope quote, there is a specific command?
i see that it dont rise becose of: i don't see it by periscope; the speed submerged is the same that without snorkel; the propulsion pass to electric.

suggest viagra is funny, but it dont work

The Snorkels for the various types of U-boats are enabled in TDW's "Option File Editor Viewer"

When you go to "Snorkel Depth" and you order the "Chief Engineer" to "Raise the Snorkel" make sure that the "Standard Propulsion" icon changes to "Yellow"

uhm.

ok, i'm sure your answer is clear for everyone than me: i'm new of this forum and of the game.

what you mean for TDW, a mod?

i don't remember well, but i think that the snorkel comes from the equipment enhancement, one of the most downloaded mod in subsim for sh5 (i downloaded the first five): it don't contains all i need to use the snorkel?

thank you for your time.

TDW's "Option file Editor Viewer" is in the NEWUI base mods "7 _4_2 and 7_5_0"

How I Installed TDW’s Option File Editor Viewer

This is how I installed it with the mod “Enabled”

TDW’s File Option Editor is inside your 7_4_2 base mod.

Right click the mouse on 7_4_2 and “Open”

Open “Data”

Open “Application”

Open “OptionFileEditorViewer”

Open the “Application” “OptionsFileEditorViewer”

Open “File”

Click on “Set path to menu.txt”

Click on “menu” (This should be the last file)

Open “File”

Click on “Set SH5 install path”

Find your main “Silent Hunter 5” Folder and save it here.

Enter “Ok”

Go to “File”

Select the first “Open”

This will show the .py “TheDarkWraithUserOptions”

Double click on it and this will open up the “Editor”

You should now see a row of “Option Tabs”

Make your changes. (These changes should made in the bunker)

To “Save” your changes.

Go to “File”

Select “Save”

“Ok”

Except all prompts.

The first time you “Save” You may be taken to the “Menu” py files. If this is the case you select the last py file “TheDarkWraithUserOptions”. Click on it and select “Save”. You will get a “Save” confirmation.

The recommended way to do it is with the mod disabled.

It is recommended that this is done in “JSGME” with the mod disabled.

You right click and “Explore”

This takes you directly to the “Application” “OptionsFileEditorViewer”

Then follow the above instructions.

If I make changes when the mod is “Enabled” I always reset “Set path to menu.txt”

[THEBERBSTER]

Snorkel is not a mod.

The first "Tab" in TDW's "Option File Editor Viewer" is "Submarine" Select the submarine/s and change "False to "True"

Old question I never figured out.Can I somewhere alter at what depth the sub determines it s submerged? I m so tired of aa crew/deckgun crew runs away cause the boat is dipping a bit. messing with batterycharge as well AND not the least ability to use uzo or binoculars when running decks awash.

These were disabled with the decks awash patch if you are in fact running decks awash. If I didn't disable them then you'd always use decks awash which would be a cheat.

hmm ok thx
I barge on with my hydroproblem. Some slowgoing ships I never hear. I hear them when they speed up.
The type in hydros box I only see when pointed excactly on target (+-0.5 degrees?).Result is I just see small flash while needle passes that point.
I use a list similar to Sober but removed RSD and REM no hyd on surface. Before that I could not hear anything beneath 30 m
Anyone know wich files are involved?

Do you mean the 'TDW No Hydrophone On Surface' mod?

Hi Silent gz with olympic silver in hockey

ANyway No I mean the one from RSD."R.S.D. & R.E.M. - GHG Hydrophone add-on (normal)". The thing is I got impatient and started to change more than one thing at the time. I also changed to newest patcher.

Thes mods have gone in and out during my search for problemsource;
R.S.D. & R.E.M. - GHG Hydrophone add-on (no hyd on surface) ,
R.E.M. - hydrophone mute for player fix (TDW compatible) and (-> what does it fix? can t find documentation..)
HydrophoneFollowNearestContactFix_For_NewUIs_TDC_7 _1_0_To_7_5_0


The only thing that always have been the same is that I sometimes don t hear slow ships. For sure never the small Rongel and Ukuel. Otherwise I don t find consistancy.

The thing that I could not hear anything (fast or slow) beneath 30 m changed to the shiptype (if hearable)only being announced in hydbox excactly on target happened after I stopped using hydsurface mods from RSD , but I did change to newest patcher as well so I can t be sure what made the change.

I have to stop playing and go to work sometimes too sigh. I ll try put original exe and patch it up and I ll try add one of the RSD surface pacthes again and see what happens.(I ll try that first). I m so tired of my crazy hyd.

Was just curious if anyone had a clue whats going on. I can try narrow down by using only new ui s etc and add related mods, but I m so tired of testing after all my CTD hunts.

I correspond with a nice fellow called Bali who also have some similar hydproblems abd he s trying out stuff as well. Heres my current list:

I removed environmental from the patcher and hope it helpes. Been to sea for hours and downed two ships..no CTD. maybe it s connected with my hyd problem..no idea.. I ve always had problems like this I just accepted it and reloaded after CTD.
YUP I m in SH5 heaven like I have been since I installed the game first time haha

It makes hydrophone contacts audible at any depth below sensor's minimum depth.

Enable the standard version on top of R.E.M if New UI's/IRAI are not used, otherwise enable the TDW compatible after R.E.M and TDW mods.

R.E.M. hydrophone depth ranges/detection distances are not affected by this fix, i.e. Xrundel/TheBeast's settings are unchanged.

Its back again(hydbox showing type only at +-0,5 degree)
didn t even go out to main menu.

I t s descent ctdwise thouh. like one out of ten times I get ctd after a ship is sunk when I enter hydstation. reload and no prob. Much better than those ctd s wich I guess was campaignrelated and you just had to reload a million times hoping to get back to base. Somethings weird thats for sure.
