Aye, aye Mate!

Fast response!:rock::arrgh!:

Great job :)
Our final version is so close to my personnal taste that i re-install SH3 :)

Here my conversion for the commands_fr.cfg to match the french keyboard layout :

I have just added a command (deep under sub keel ctrl+D)

And a JSGME ready for the fixed PATO_3000 :

bye

thank you Loltak :up:

just have in mind that Pato's images are great 'ram eaters':D and maybe will crash your game at ports that containes many subs !thats why is better to apply this image ONLY to the sub that you are using. read the readme notes for these images for more info.

bye

Very complete - there must be a million ways now to do the targetting! :)

Couple of quicj questions though:

1) Is ther some way to get the Watch offcier to identify he ship when it is locked in a scope? He is the one holding my nice Blue Rec Manual for me! :D

2) Was there some way to click on the ship in the UZO/Periscope and get the correct page of the Rec Manual to open automatically?

Maybe I just confused with older versions or other mods!

Thanks

Vermint

Ok, my fault, i had miss something in the readme :lol: When i unzip, the readme was overwrite by an other readme, so i didn't read it :nope:
Now I understand why it was not JSGME ready ;).

Hi mate,

I just want to say that your interface mod is simply pure work of art.

Everybody here will simply agree with my statement highly professional work:up:

Sorry if i come late to congratulate you on your fantastic work but i was busy working on a certain mod:hmmm:

Best regards Hans

Attack Scope with AOB rings showing :
http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/a...phere94/10.png



How do I get the AOB rings to show up? I can't find the button for accessing them. :cry: Please HELP.

You'll see the bottom edge of the rings at the top of the peri (actually inside the lens it seems), just click on it and it will bring it down into the position shown in the image above.

Simple.

Sorry to sound especially dumb - but is there supposed to be sound on the tutorial videos?

Another poster remarked there was no sound and I am having the same issue - if it is an issue?

Regards

Vermin.

Ahoy thar,

Apparently, "Manual Targeting" option in the realism settings must be ticked in order for the AOB rings to be selectable. And I haven't done that. Still learning the ropes, you see. :D Now I'll be forced to target those infernal allied ships with my own blood, sweat and tears. And a little math, of course. :DL

No more lying in the bunk for me now. :har:

Ok, I assumed you were using manual targeting. I personally try to set up 90 degree shots 90% of the time for which the pull out tables for the different speed torpedoes comes in handy, it also negates the need for distance to target and AOB (as you already know this will be 90 degrees). As for target speed, you'd probably do well to use the 3.15 minute rule to work this out by plotting the ships position on the map. If you have Map Contacts on you can easily work out AOB using the map too.

Believe it or not, by using manual targeting you may make your life easier, in that you can do most of your calculations from the peri view without having to switch back and forth to the map. Give it a try.

:up:

Aaargh! I'm still having the same problem! :damn:

Lookee here:
http://i55.tinypic.com/34pi1cw.jpg
http://i55.tinypic.com/4kthmc.jpg

Everytime I click that highlighted portion, my mouse pointer just vanishes and the periscope is selected instead. :cry: Is there any solution for this kind of problem? Assigning a command on my keyboard to access it perhaps?

A little bit of help please. This is seriously derailing my Kriegsmarine career. lol


My installed Mods:
http://i53.tinypic.com/2gyds0x.jpg


NOTE:

1. I had also had this very same problem when I tried using OLC Gui 1.2.7 and ACM Gui Reloaded. The reason I switched to MaGui Final, aside from the superb graphics, was because I wanted to check if the aforementioned problem would still occur.

2. Manual Targeting in the Realism settings has already been unticked.

3. I use SH3 Commander 3.2 to embark on a new career and launch the game.

I'm probably talking out of my posterior here but AFAIK, you dont need to click on the rings to bring them down. just hover your mouse over them and they will drop down autonatically,,,,, then you can click and drag the wheels around... but then again I can't even remember how to get my WO to identify the targets!

Rgds

Vermin

Manual targeting should be ticked, not unticked.

Try disabling the KEYS-Easy sub control, and then test if it works. If it does work, please take a look in the mods data folder and tell us what files are in there, particularly if there's a menu_1024.ini file in there as this deals with the UI and may be conflicting with MAGUI, causing you to lose the required clickspot.

If that is the issue, it shouldn't be too hard to rectify, probably just a case of merging the two so they incorporate the same info. I've had to do this numerous times on my install... :doh:

@Vermin, I use MAGUI F and you do need to click the wheel to bring it up.

Well, this is sorta embarrassing. :oops: To access the AOB rings, "manual targeting" in the realism settings SHOULD BE TICKED and not unticked, as what I have erroneously assumed. Please disregard this post of mine. I got it working flawlessly now. :D

I guess my being a greenhorn at this game really shows. :har: I've just discovered this gem of a game a few days ago. :)

@Damo,

I will definitely try that 90 degree shot of yours amigo. But for the meantime, I need to familiarize with the GUI 1st. :DL And yep, I have disabled KEYS-EASY subcontrolas it was messing up some of the keyboard commands.

Gracias amigos for the inputs! :yeah:

De nada.



LOL, well at least if the Brits catch you you won't be able to give them any sensitive technical information that they can actually use....

:rotfl2:

haha! Quite right. :D

When my colleagues at Kriegsmarine learned of my blunde---I mean, "tactical errors", I was ostracized, like I was a leper or something; and everytime I enter a room, s******s and boos would almost always follow. :cry:

To end the blight and stigma on my character, I did the only thing left for me to do: die with honor.

And so, at the sounding of the three bells, I quietly left the harbor with my U-boat.

Just 200 kilometers off the Kiel harbor, I ordered the lifeboats lowered. And after having paid my crew handsomely to go home to their wives and children, we boarded the lifeboats, leaving an empty floating submarine behind.

Ten minutes later and a deafening explosion was heard, followed by a huge fireball that mushroomed into the sky. It was a beautiful sight. Luckily, I was able to radio a message to BDU, informing them that we have engaged an enemy convoy comprising of 2 battleships and 3 DDs and successfully sunk all of them. Without mincing words, we added that our U-boat has been critically damaged, is taking water, and is currently on the process of sinking.

~~~

Three days later and I'm back at Kiel. I now sport a beard and a new name. Nobody seem to recognize me anymore, even my colleagues. I just got my new orders. I have been given the command of U-51 and assigned to patrol the AM19 grid off the western coast of Merry England. The entire base is buzzing with news and my heroic last stand is the hottest topic. I (my previous self, I mean) have been posthumously awarded with the Iron Cross and promoted to Captain. There is already a talk of erecting my statue on the center of Berlin, side by side with Der Fuhrer.

Not bad.

And now I'm off to a new adventure. And this time, I am now equipped with a very vital knowledge: how to use the goddamn AOB rings.

:har:

You may not have mastered submarines 100% but you got propaganda down to a fine art....

:up:

hello Vermin,

for 1: the weapon officer does this job for you.look at his orders.
for 2: yes, where you see the name of ship(after you have identified it) , there clic with your mouse.

bye

Ahoy ...Hans ! :up: when i recieving congrats for professionals and persons like you it is always a special pleasure for me ! it gives me the sense that the whole thing worthed...the effort !
