Hello everybody

I release to the community this little mod...
***Adapted ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4 for Onealex V6***













From the Readme file:

CapZap1970's adaptation of Brodaga222 ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4
for SH3 ONEALEX GWX EDITION Mod V5

How to install:

1.- Install TychoSh3Patch_v3:
- Copy SH3.exe file from your installed SH3 ONEALEX GWX EDITION game
in the folder "TychoSh3Patch_v3" provided in THIS mod.
- Run the TychoSh3Patch.bat


2.- Cut or paste the patched SH3.exe into the
"CapZap1970-ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4 Onealex Version" folder.
The "data" folder and the newly copied SH3.exe file must be in
the same directory.
- Right click the newly patched SH3.exe file and check the
"Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 7" option.
-Check the "Run this program as an administrator" option.

3.- Install ARB WideGui 1920x1080:

Credits.-
All the files included in this mod adaptation remain property of the original authors. This is just an adaptation of Brodaga222's ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 V0.4 mod at Subsim

for SH3 ONEALEX GWX EDITION mod ONLY. It will not work with other super mods.

Thanks a lot to Onealex who helped me with some problems and put me in the right track with advises to finish this mod and to kyle9154 who encouraged me to start this project.

Also, thanks a lot to Brodaga222 for his wonderful mod ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4. It is a great contribution to this wonderful community!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is just an adaptation of Brodaga222's great ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 V0.4 mod to be used with SH3 Onealex GWX version. My work is based entirely on his mod, so I am not the

author, I just adapted it.
The U-Jagd Chrono is gone due to lack of space, so you have to use the draggable Chrono instead.
The info in the notepad in the Attack and Obs Periscopes, as well as in the UZO is back (SHIP, RANGE, ANGLE ON BOW and SPEED), as well as the info when using the manual targeting system.
The console in the TDC (F6) has been relocated to the right border of the screen to gain some space in the map along with all the dials and buttons. there was a small gap between
the right border of the console and the edge of the screen.
UZO has now the same zoom levels as the periscopes and a full reticle.
All optics have historically accurate zoom levels: Periscopes (Attack and Obs) 1.5x-6x, UZO 1.5x-7x and Binoculars 8x.



Read the installation instructions carefully to avoid problems.

Enjoy!

New Updated version available in 1st post.
Changes in V4:


1.- Tried Onealex V1.52 with and without my mod many, many times..... Now both behave exactly the same way (Talking about the RAOBF) and the tools used for manual targeting.
2.- To close the disk around the attack and observation periscopes, click on the center of the cross hairs (The closing point was waaaay off center).
3.- UZO zoom is now 1.5 x-7x as observed (suggested) by Tonci87.
4.- The Rec Manual has been moved further to the right so it doesn't interfere with the knobs and buttons at the left panel.

Sorry to bother you, guys... Due to a previously undetected error, the new and improved version has been uploaded and the link in the first post has been updated.
This is final version for real.

Thanks a lot for your patience!

Hello everyone. I am having this problem. It occurs when I try to install "CapZap1970 - ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4 for Onealex V6 mod" on "Onealex 1.52". I have followed the installation instructions step by step, but I can't seem to find the solution.

What seems to be the problem? More detailed info would be very helpful...

I had initial problems when I first activated CapZap's ARB v6. The original GUI loaded but not CapZap's ARB mod v6. I do think it was a late nite error on my part. But maybe not. What happened was I activate CapZap's ARB v6 without the newly patched SH3.exe. I messed around with this a bit to no success. To fix this I :

1. de-activated v5, of course and deleted it from my SH3 MODS folder
2. I copied an original SH3.exe file from a backup copy of OneAlex 1.52 to my playable OneAlex 1.52 install, game folder.

Then I started over, following CapZap's instructions on patching and activating CapZap's ARB v6, and presto, it loaded and tested perfectly. Now I repeat. I think I messed things up on my end, at first by activating CapZap's ARB v6 without the patched SH3.exe. Dont't know if it did anything, but CapZap's ARB v6 was not loading. Not wanting to waist another 30 minutes with restarts and troubleshooting, I did the above. It took all but 10 minutes to fix and get back to sea.

Of course. If you click on the image, you will notice that the text and background textures are misaligned. Something similar happens with the notepad in the attack periscope. If I try to use the rangefinder, the measurement line does not appear on the lens and the text on the notepad extends beyond the limit.

Megamod Onealex 1.52 works fine. The problem comes when trying to add this UI to it.
