This mod replaces the obs scope in TMO(which I think its too much help with excellent night optics and green crosshairs) with the attack scope lens.This is meant for older boats such as Porpoise, Sargo/Salmon and S class as they had two attack scopes(some that stayed in service into 44 and 45 may have had an observation scope installed later but most of war had two attack scopes) Captain Ken Ruiz who served two years aboard USS Pollack mentioned the scopes were same and rarely used the scope in the control room since boat had to ride so shallow to use it, it tended to broach.Basically, it was same scope, just for backup in case couldnt use the one in conning tower.Notice in the game the 3d model of the scopes has the stadimeter dial on both scopes, where as in the Tambor/Gar/Gato/Balao/Tench they did not.
The newer fleetboats had two slightly different scopes, the observation scope had a larger head and transmitted light better, it was used for general observation and did not have a stadimeter.The attack scope, was thinnger and more difficult to spot, but did not transmit light as well and was basically useless after dark. I address this my "REALSCOPES" mod where the TMO obs scope is replaced with a lens the is slightly different than the attack scope but not the big advantage the default TMO observation scope gives the player.
This is made for TMO RSRD but may work with others, not sure.
Simply install with JSGME.
