[REQ] AoB trainer - stand alone

joea · 03-25-2007, 11:34 AM

Ok, my memory (and reading google links) is a bit hazy but I think it was Richard O'Kane who spent time training himself with a ship model and a lazy-susan to train himself on getting AoB right. Would it be possible to make some kind of test in flash or with a spreadsheet ot something that would show you a ship and ask you to guess it's AoB? Or should I buy a toy boat and use that?

You are right re O'Kane, he also practiced with cars and ay other moving stuff he came across

RE an AOB trainer, it is way easier to use the "museum" viewer in order to move the cam around and see which AOB you can guess at sea level. Then simply move camera upwards and see the real course the target had.

I don't have SH4 yet, how can you see the course? Can you do that in sh3?

I mean you can rotate the models by left-clicking and moving your mouse.
