Thanks a lot to Onealex who helped me with some problems and put me in the right track with advises to finish this mod and to kyle9154 who encouraged me to start this project.

Also, thanks a lot to Brodaga222 for his wonderful mod ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4. It is a great contribution to this wonderful community!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is just an adaptation of Brodaga222's great ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 V0.4 mod to be used with SH3 Onealex GWX version. My work is based entirely on his mod, so I am not the

author, I just adapted it.
The U-Jagd Chrono is gone due to lack of space, so you have to use the draggable Chrono instead.
The info in the notepad in the Attack and Obs Periscopes, as well as in the UZO is back (SHIP, RANGE, ANGLE ON BOW and SPEED), as well as the info when using the manual targeting system.
The console in the TDC (F6) has been relocated to the right border of the screen to gain some space in the map along with all the dials and buttons. there was a small gap between
the right border of the console and the edge of the screen.
UZO has now the same zoom levels as the periscopes and a full reticle.
All optics have historically accurate zoom levels: Periscopes (Attack and Obs) 1.5x-6x, UZO 1.5x-7x and Binoculars 8x.

Read the installation instructions carefully to avoid problems.

Enjoy!

New Updated version available in 1st post.
Changes in V4:

1.- Tried Onealex V1.52 with and without my mod many, many times..... Now both behave exactly the same way (Talking about the RAOBF) and the tools used for manual targeting.
2.- To close the disk around the attack and observation periscopes, click on the center of the cross hairs (The closing point was waaaay off center).
3.- UZO zoom is now 1.5 x-7x as observed (suggested) by Tonci87.
4.- The Rec Manual has been moved further to the right so it doesn't interfere with the knobs and buttons at the left panel.

Hello everyone. I am having this problem. It occurs when I try to install "CapZap1970 - ARB WideGUI 1920x1080 v0.4 for Onealex V6 mod" on "Onealex 1.52". I have followed the installation instructions step by step, but I can't seem to find the solution.

I had initial problems when I first activated CapZap's ARB v6. The original GUI loaded but not CapZap's ARB mod v6. I do think it was a late nite error on my part. But maybe not. What happened was I activate CapZap's ARB v6 without the newly patched SH3.exe. I messed around with this a bit to no success. To fix this I :

1. de-activated v5, of course and deleted it from my SH3 MODS folder
2. I copied an original SH3.exe file from a backup copy of OneAlex 1.52 to my playable OneAlex 1.52 install, game folder.

Then I started over, following CapZap's instructions on patching and activating CapZap's ARB v6, and presto, it loaded and tested perfectly. Now I repeat. I think I messed things up on my end, at first by activating CapZap's ARB v6 without the patched SH3.exe. Dont't know if it did anything, but CapZap's ARB v6 was not loading. Not wanting to waist another 30 minutes with restarts and troubleshooting, I did the above. It took all but 10 minutes to fix and get back to sea.

What seems to be the problem? More detailed info would be very helpful... :yep:

Of course. If you click on the image, you will notice that the text and background textures are misaligned. Something similar happens with the notepad in the attack periscope. If I try to use the rangefinder, the measurement line does not appear on the lens and the text on the notepad extends beyond the limit.

Megamod Onealex 1.52 works fine. The problem comes when trying to add this UI to it.

That is strange, very strange, since nobody else had that problem.... look at the screenshots in the first post... :hmmm:

There is something you are not doing right in the process...
Take a look at these fresh screenshots right out the oven just to show everything runs smoothly.... Just downloaded the mod again, installed it following the instructions, enabled it via JSGME and there you go...

Ok. Evidently it is a problem with my setup or my instalation. If I find the solution, I will come back in case someone else has the same thing.

Anyway, thank you very much for your attention. :salute:
All I can do is give you a couple of advises:
1.- Download again the ARB mod (just in case)
2.- While in the set up process, take your time and don't rush to avoid mistakes reading the Readme file step by step.

With that, for sure you will do it successfully!

I have the same problem. No range finder in the lens and text if off to the right when clicking on range or speed in the notepad.

From what I found out, the notepad problem is caused by the option "Disable hardcoded scopes reticle" included in the automatized Tycho v3 SH3 Patch. Just don't patch nor move the sh3.exe file from the main folder. The Onealex mod has the parameters for widegui already integrated. Just activate the CAP mod with the data file only. Worked for me. Simple as that. - Even though I don't use the notepad, I like everything working properly. :03:

Quick Question -

I'm seeing an offset between the progress bar and the location where it is expected in the background on the current version of OneAlex and the v8 WideGUI. Is this a known issue? I can post screenshots if it is of value.

Thank you,

Mike

Disregard - it turned out to be an issue caused by my attempts to run at my screen's native resolution. Once I reverted to native OneAlex and re-selected the ARB Gui inside JSGME it worked as expected :)
