[REL]MaxOptics IV

This modification changes the magnification of several stations to give a larger image when viewing. This should aid in ship identification, Stadimeter use when using manual targeting and Deck Gun operations. By no means are these views considered "realistic" however this is a game and to better play this game these magnifications do help. I've made this as a combination of mods that are useful in game play aids and assists for those that have weak eye's as I have.

Both Periscopes, the Binocular, TBT, and Deck Gun views are magnified for easier viewing. Zoom levels were added to the Periscopes, Binocular, and TBT. A larger bearing compass was added to the Periscopes and TBT. The view "port hole" was enlarged for the Periscopes as well. I've increased the size of the HUD dials (compass, telegraph, rudder) for easier viewing, and added a modification that lightens the night sky for night viewing. I've also changed the in-game menu images simply because I wanted to.

I've decided it was time to put this particular thread together because I had some of these modifications strung out over the forums. This thread will put together the most current MaxOptics mods compatible with the currently used "super mods" as well as covering the older (yet widely used) 1.4 patched SH4 versions.
