Maybe someone can help me?

I am searching for another GUI for the standard GWX 3.0.

I don't want the OLC "Gold" MkII (have played it before) ... what am I looking for?

A GUI that have big dials when you pop out the screen (with your mouse), because I can hardly see the 'standard' dials. I wear reading glasses ... and the big dials (like in WAC or LSH3) are great for me.

I have many mods on my external HD, but cannot find a correct GUI for GWX 3.0.

Does anyone can help me?

Thanks guys.

Thanks Sie!

However, I know your mod ... I thought it was made for LSH3?

Maybe you are not my age (reading glasses needed), but the dials disappear when you move with your mouse to another position.

And don't forget, that we use the dials very often in SH3.

Thanks for helping me! :yep:

UPDATE:

The other GUI is complicated and don't work fine with GWX. However, I found another solution. See below some images. All with GWX 3.0

I am testing to have big dials in GWX 3.0. Until now everything works fine.

It is a pop out and pop in menu, dials ... in fact everything.

Added (I forgot) the observation periscope. And an external view for fun! :)

@ Steve, I have this one (I suppose somewhere on my HD), but I like to see the TDC in my screen. However, quite interesting too. I prefer big dials because I can see what I am doing! :DL

BTW, nice images mate!

@ Sie, correct HanSolo used this one for WAC 3.0 and 4.0. Did you see the navigation map! Same as in WAC.

As you can see, it has been made for GWX 2.1. Furthermore, the readme.txt said it is only for GWX 2.1 ... but until now everything is working perfect with GWX 3.0 ???

I think (but correct me if I am wrong), that the observation scope is quite authentic. :hmmm:

That's what it looks like on the outside, so the mirror can crank up to look for airplanes, but the inside eyepiece is still a circle and that's how it would look when you used it.

It still looks cool, though, and I love your binoculars with the hands holding them!:rock:

OK thanks. :know:

I find the binoculars better then the GWX 3.0 style (not especially the hands) but you know where you are looking because of the bearing indicator. In GWX 3.0 they disabled it.

Now I get more the feeling where I am looking, in real life you would feel the direction when you would move. In my opinion this is much better.

Correct me (a usual LOL), if I am wrong.

That's all a matter of taste. I like not having the bearing marks. When I look for a ship I just do it without the binocs until I'm facing close enough, then use them and turn slowly. No trouble finding it that way.:sunny:
