This mod can be used with both widescreen GUI's : Ahnenerbe_WS-GUI_1920x1080_for_CCoM_by Wurmonkel & ARB WideGui 1920x1080

Simple mod which replaces the cloud icon used by Stiebler in his weathermeter fix. Now a worded icon>'CLEAR' icon appears when the weather is reported as clear, 'FOG' (green) when fog is light, 'FOG' (amber) when fog is medium and 'FOG' (red) when fog is heavy.

Your timing couldn't be better!
Was hunting grd BE17 the other day, had to recharge batts when I was almost run over by a DD. I knew it was fogy but I'd not realized it was that bad.

I escaped but took more than a few brusses for it.

will this work for Magui?

Not at present but I can have a look if you let me know which MaGui you are currently using.

WAC MaGui F for 1360 x768
that would be great. I took a peak at them in winmerg and think I found the corresponding lines in MaGui but I'm not at all confident under ini files hood. it's kinda like MG wiring under there.

Wac magui is not quiet good, I prefer 3.4 with caws not only visually. Only great thing of wac version.in rise down scope in the bar.
I have my own custom version and replace the compass fur annenerve s and make easy for real navigation with hide bout mod

DOH! yes your right, I use Wac commands files for new Uboat comp but am using MaGu 3.4i F. I like it couse it removes weapons officer temptation for solution to target but I can still have him id targets

Would be interested in this, if per chance this mod worked for LSH3-2015, since LSH3-2015, comes packed out with a widescreen adaption for it included.

furthermore, no clear release date yet known, but do know that the modder that authored LSH3-2015, has stated that a release is soon to be done for an updated LSH3, tentatively now referred to as LSH3-2020. This has been mentioned, in the appropriately named forum post for it, on page 93 of that forum posting & item post # 1393, found here:

https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2669896&postcount=1393

Secondly, know that with h.sie's patch for SH3, in regards to rain, it is now set up for when it starts to do so it is tagged as foggy conditions so that if you are traveling about in TC, rain will drag you back to a reduced TC of somewhere in the ball park of 1 to 8 TC. Does your mod, allow for that or not.. as well.?

I have to say that I am very much interested in what you have set up, yet don't want it stripping out other benefits of what has come before, and am hopeful that your mod, has taken this into account or if it hasn't yet... may do so, if it is indeed feasible.

i love his work but, you know... ja, wac is hounted jajaja. i have only one thing i dont like of magui and i had to make my own is get bearing out of scope and also edit the obs periscope to and old mod rectangular shape, all with other marks. cross is right in magui but i dont know, tis a delicate thing... you are pointing with it.

Side note, I edited the tga to replace icon to vr visual range and I change color to go lightblue-yelow-orange-red-bordeaux (red it's much dangerous becouse you have no visual range but it's not raining so could have planes with radar in mid-late game

Nice! you mean you've moved bearing out of scope view like Hitmans? I realy like his scope with bearing on top in it's own little window with the white background,...makes it very easy to read.

all I've managed is to rework the big compass making it easier to read.
it aint pretty but I can find N. S. E. W. and all points between :up:
the other thing I like about 3,4 different from Wac is the scope depth gauge. I never liked on mouse over in Wac, was always haveing to check my scope depth...good thing though couse I've a habit now of setting depth to 13, 14 meters and just running the scope all the way up.

I believe I will upload my nygm/gwx hybrid, with my gui and smart jfo. I call it cgm= consolidated gm mod.
And bearing is sterch so hard to read.

Pleas do. I'd like to try it.
ARB is another master peace but sad for me I cant read my TDC at 1920x768 so I'm stuck at 1360x768.
thanks to Tycho I can read grds on my nav map, otherwise I'd be stranded on Gilligan island.

Yes I like to have extended nav map, but mod gui is **** I was 4 hours to put anenerve compass, and alone years prior I was many hours to put it. Mod gui is a pain.

Weathermeter Mod for LSH OLC Widescreen
RickSarg

Great work RickSarg... for those that use OLC's widescreen that's included in LSH3, and I thank you for the work done to put this one out. :up:

Not disparaging it, in the slightest... :hmmm: but do wish to point out, that LSH3 does have 2 widescreens included for use and I use & am not sure of how many others who use LSH3 for SH3, the LSH3-2015 Gui widescreen.

Just asking, you are going to offer up a d/l for that 1 or does this cover both widescreen options.?

I'm just asking for clarity's sake here, since i know 1 mod may or may not work with all others.. in short, some mods don't play well with other mods... so any clarity here, would be greatly appreciated... thanks. :yeah:

Again, great work on what's been released thus far.

Update:

Just a note after d/l'ing & installing... Works beautifully... am enjoying this add on to LSH3-2015...

Do have to say, with the news of Urmel's LSH3 updated mod, announced to be soon released (as far as I know of, to be tentatively named LSH3-2020)...

I am wondering if this & all the other mods released to enhance the 2015 release... will they also work for it, as well.? Or are they going to have to be reworked to be able to after LSH3-2020, is released...

:o :06: :timeout: :hmmm:

Only worry I have, is some of the mod makers, are nowhere to be found, or maybe have passed on... hopefully those who worked with those that fall into this category, will be able to go back into them & rework them, if that is needed to be done... 1 can hope.

Guess we all will have to take a wait & see approach & hope for the best, I guess... :)

Any way, just wanted to let it be known that it works beautifully... much appreciated & thanks again for your work to help improve SH3.

Thanks for your kind words!! Glad your are enjoying the mod. As for the newly announced LSH 2020, we will have to wait and see what is included, he will most likely go with a 1920x1080 version widescreen mod. Either way I should be able to implement my mod into most GUI's.

But as for now I have no immediate intention of making a version for the vanilla games GUI as I don't think there will be much call for 1 and you do need Stieblers Fixes to make it work as it should.

Once again thankyou for your kind words.
