[2022.1] Enhanced Identification Book

Current version: 1.0.4


Enhanced Identification Book (EIB) is a mod that replaces the vanilla identification book in the UZO and periscope UIs with a brand-new enhanced book. With the 2022.1 update the vanilla ID book introduced categories, making this mod a little less useful, but it can still be used to replace the vanilla ID book if you prefer the way it is organised and its aesthetic.

The enhanced book comes packed with features:

• Fully integrated in the vanilla UI
  
• Filter ships classes by countries and categories.
  
• Doubles as a flagbook.
  
• Use the civilian and military toggles on the category page to restrict the book to only those kind of classes
  
• Retains the last opened page when you close it or go out of the UZO/periscope UIs
  
• Does not close when you click on the recognise button
  
• Draggable to any position on the screen
  
• Brand-new vanilla-style graphics by Jim (VG) and images sourced from Link
  
• New more period appropriate names for many countries
  
• Full translation in all supported languages

⚠️ Attention ⚠️
It is a vanilla feature that classes appear in the ID book over time when they start being used by allied powers in the game. As a result if you start with the U96 start in January 1941 many classes will not be visible including the N-A1 which many player know about; it will appear in February 1941. Not seeing it at the U96 start is not a bug.

By default this mod will show the historical German flag on the top-left page. If you prefer to not have it, please enable the Safe patch for HF.

EIB is fully compatible with vanilla and any mod that adds new classes or category. It was primarily designed with U-Boat Expanded (and its variants) in mind, but other similar mods will work.

EIB is not backward compatible with older version of the game before 2022.1.

EIB is savegame compatible, however clearing the cache & datasheet folders is recommended.
