Couldn't translate it, couldn't select M Aegir. Maybe I did something wrong.

Make sure to use deciphering date based on date and time shown in the message, not the actual date in game...

Thanks SkyBaron for this incredible mod and thanks vdr for putting it into TWOS.
Two questions
1. What is the little check box under the keys for?
2. Could you remove the English or unencrypted messages from the campaign when there is an encoded message? What I mean is when I get an encoded message there is always the decoded message sent just above it. So it makes using the enigma less ...important

With that said this is the most fun I've had in this game for years! My wife thinks I'm crazy lol

To use keyboard while typing encrypted message...

I know what you mean and I'm working on it...

Gradually, all important messages will be encrypted for people who use "Encr. Bdu orders" addon...
For people who do not use this addon, there will be still occasional encrypted messages but player will not be forced to decipher it, although he will see some benefits if he do so, like earlier announcement of base transfer, some sporadic intel about rare scripted convoys, some "Easter egg" messages ect...

Not sure what you mean but this mod is the 4-wheel M4 Enigma.

I think I did that, but maybe I just am too stupid for this.

I'm sorry that you're having trouble with the mod.

I don't know how to explain the procedure in any other way than the one in the manual or this previous post -- which is basically the same thing as the manual with a different message:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...7&postcount=85

The procedure is based on the real thing so it does take practice to get it right.

What high learning curve we are talking about here?

The deciphering process is enormously simple and not even so much time consuming. 5-6 min is more then enough for message of ~20 groups or so...We really aren't talking about rocket science. Brief manual and one video example are more then enough.

Don't even think about "simplifications"

we from |DEF| changed our procedures to attract more players and not drive them off...Playability over historic accuracy so to speak.

I'm kinda surprised to hear this...
