Ever since I started trying to become a true Kaleun I've seen a lot of weird issues happening to me. This one is completely new to me.
I can say that everyone was due to my handling of the TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py file and/or conflicting mods. I'd say that this looks like some mods conflicting.

Please check your mod soup and your settings in the TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py

This is a great mod,but I need a little help with something.

I'm using enchanced UI and when I bring up the rudder/heading dial and cross my mouse over it it zooms too much and it looks awfull.But it's not just about how it looks it is just not practical for me.Can I switch off the zoom on the dial somehow?Thanks!

Default Flickering Textures

Hi TDW!

I had an issue with flickering textures everywhere. Sometimes this is very heavy and annoying. I now disabled all mods and reenabled one by one and I can actually say that NewUIs is causing it.

I also have an assumption as of where this could be rooted:
I used to use a mod to change the camera behaviour (can't remember the name --> the mod enabled you for example to move the external camera more closer to the boat) and I do not use it anymore, because it caused the flickering. The functionality was included into your mod. I think, that I had this texture problem before with this other mod and I took it over with the changes you made into newUIs.

Does that make sense?

As a matter of fact, if I disable newUIs, no textures are flickering at all... nowhere. So I am pretty sure this is the right track. Could you identify the changes that are related to this camera behaviour and I could try to remove it from your mod manually to check if things get better then.

Thank you!

Meldric

Hey, I just bought SH5 Steam and heard your mod was a great tool in order to make the interface a little bit easier to get around in, but I can't seem to get it to work. I managed to activate it in the mod application (JSGME) but it doesn't actually show up in game. I tried searching through the forums for a solution but I couldn't find anything.

Hope you can help me!

When you extract the mod with winrar etc all the mods are in a folder called MODS, there are heaps of mods there to choose from . So dont just enable the first folder you see .

Nah, I enabled the main mod with the file that you had to edit in order to choose what UI you would see. I managed to fix my own problem by disabling and re-activating through the application though, so it's all good. : )

Me also Neverthless I'll try to do it again. May be our first messages, Stormfly, have been missed in the action, conducted by TDW, with one of the U-boots in the middle of the Atlantic

Default Screen aspect ratios using the mod

Firstly a big thank you to TheDarkWraith for your excellent mod, I cant imagine going back to SH5 without it !

I am however having a problem with running SH5 with the mod enabled at my monitors native resolution ( 1680X1050 @ 60HZ 16:9 ), without the aspect ratio going "wrong" .

I checked through the available resolutions on the menu page graphics options and noticed there are only a couple of resolutions that allow 16:9 aspect,and 1680X1050 isnt one of them.
Unfortunately none of these other resolutions which allow 16:9 seem to work right on my monitor, either leaving a blank band top and bottom of the screen, or distorting the image.

Is this something I can overcome by tweaking some option in the game or mod, or is it something which cannot be altered ?

Without the mod installed I can run at native res and aspect ratio no problem, but its nowhere near as good fun without the new UI !

I have tried searching through the forum for an answer, without success, so any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Crepitis

You say your monitor's native res is 1680 x 1050, right? That means your ratio is 8:5

Dont know whats happening here, would love to try this mod too I tried different resolutions and also installing Python too but still no go. Installed as per instructions on the vid as well just to be sure I was installing correctly. Any ideas ? This is with your mod alone running so no mod conflicts either ?

Try following the troubleshooting steps listed at bottom of post #1 of this thread.

The screenshot above means an error somewhere. Did you edit the options file?
