Sometime ago I was also looking for this type of mod (the same dials effect that come with stock Sh4, no?) but ppl only direct me to the old FLB's large dial mod that isn't the same thing.:hmmm:

If you find one please let me know too.:up:

This mod has the Dials mod you want and more. Been using it since it was released. :up: : http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=1382

It comes in 2 versions too. :yep:

Thanks by the suggestion mate, but again, this isn't exactly what we are looking for. Do you already played a bit with stock Sh4? When you pass the mouse over one of the small three dials at the right botton (speed/direction/depth) it imediatelly becomes a bit big (the exactly size to be usefull!) and more detailed. What i like on this approach is it's simplicity and stock feeling. All the GUI that we have here in Sh3 changes too much and I like the stock feeling of the game with just some tweaks.:up:

How about NO dials at all until you put the cursor in the right place, then dials so big they can't be missed?

@ Rubini: I know you said this isn't what "we" are looking for, but I though Flag4 might be interested.

Hi SS, yes it's true he can be interested...but as these are old mods I guess that he already knows about them.:DL

hi Rubini, i think that OLC had managed to do this at his mods ...
i mean that if you pass the cursor over his dials ...then becomes a little bigger.
i am not sure though (my memory is not helping much) so give it a try . i think that OLC made exactly what you are looking for .

Hi Rubini - if you have luck, let me know - might give Sailor Steve's mod a shot too - big lollipops or not!

cheers

No, it removes everything from the screen and turns it all into slide-outs, including the huge dials.

The download link is in my post that you quoted (thanks flag4).
