Default [REL] Periscopes TDC 1.2

Periscopes tdc 1.2

I removed the salvo dials i never use, and added back the Mark Fire and up-down buttons.




Readme.txt:

Periscopes TDC 1.2
-------------------------------------------
- TDC in the attack and observation periscopes, allows fast input and
reading of the solution data.
- AOB Finder and u-Jagd draggable chrono, extracted from U-Jagd Tools, to get AOB and speed accurately.
You can do a 3000 m shot this way!.

- You can use the stadimeter for the range.

Installation:
- Run MenuModInstaller and
- Select in there the 'data' folder of sh3.
- Click Modify! button.

(2 new files will be created: the menu_1024_768.ini and Dials.cfg).
- Copy or move the new menu_1024_768.ini file to '...\Periscopes TDC 1.2\Data\Menu'
Copy or move new Dials.cfg file into '...\Periscopes TDC 1.2\Data\Menu\Cfg' folder.
- Copy the Cameras.dat of your corresponding mod to '...\Periscopes TDC 1.2\Data\Library
- Move or copy the folder to your MODS folder and Enable the mod using JSGME,
if you have prior version dont forget to disable it first.
Notes:
- To toggle the autoupdate of the tdc, you can use the Z key (to toggle silent running use Ctrl-Z)
No indicator if the tdc is on auto or off.
- The AOB finder is set to work on 10x observaton peri. and 6x zoom attack periscope.
This mod includes Cameras.dat file for each mod to adjust the zoom.

--------------------------------------
Changes:
V1.01
- Night filter & AOB Finder problem attenuated: Included mask of stock sh3.
- AOBFinder lowered a bit.
V1.1
- Some graphic improvements.
- Added U-Jagd Tools draggable chrono.
- More precise horizontal scale in the aob finder.
- Z toggles tdc autoupdate, you can use Ctrl-Z to toggle silent running (reason for the change is comfort)
V1.2
- Removed salvo switch and dials, put back Fire, Mark and up-down buttons.

Credits:
- U-Jagd Tools is an excelent "work of joegrundman, Hitman and from about halfway through the project Onelifecrisis."
- Some code copied from mod of FLB Sale`s.

God bless.

A very useful mod! Thank You.... I have an idea which I don't know if it is possible; my knowledge of the inner workings of SH3 is very limited, but would it be possible to have the RANGE entry in a similar graphic style to the GYROANGLE entry, with the distance either in a lttle set of windows or at least in a similar style? I think that would look pretty good but have no idea if that would be viable... What do you think?Regards
