Hello,
the "morale" problem after reloading a game has been fixed.
Greets,
Catfish

Catfish, you mean it has been fixed by the developers or the mod makers?

I hope he means an official fix but I can't find anything about it, the mod just disables morale "cost" for special abilites so I don't have to shoot my XO out of tube 1 when he refuses to rig for silent running when there's a destroyer overhead. It appears to me that morale still has an effect on crew efficiency so you will have a lax crew when you reload.

If you have used Jimi Madrid's Gramophone song randomizer for SH4, guess what? It works for SH5. You put the exe in your main SH5 folder, start it, but don't click on "Start SH4." Simply close it out and your songs are randomized for the duration of your next SH5 session . . . provided that the Ubi servers are working.

If for whatever reason you are not hearing responses from you crew when you give orders or ask for a "Depth Below Keel" reading (with mod), simply save your progress and exit to the main menu (don't exit to Windows). Then reload your game and the problem should be solved. Might have something to do with TheDarkWraith's GUI mod, the one that gives you the SH4-style control layout. If you do use it, be sure to avoid certain buttons that he warns about in his readme. I can say that the telegraph commands work great as does the "Depth Below Keel" request. Also, it gives you the Gramophone again. I'm sure that over time TheDarkWraith will work out the bugs in his mod, but right now I find it a life saver. I mean come on, no "Depth Below Keel" in the stock game? smile

I would advise getting the cook's special meal ability maxed out (I can't believe I just said that about a submarine simulation). Even if you're running the morale mod the crew is more efficient if the morale is high and having him whip up a special meal after loading a save makes your crew happy again.

By the way, is there a way to taste the cook's meal when he offers it? I happen to love a good Eintopf (my mom makes an awesome one).
