Link seems dead.
 
Anyone still have these or something in game like them?

Regards,

What the hell is that thing??

Seems cool...I must try it at once!

its a mechanichal calculator that not so long ago engineers mostly used to make calculations (logarithms, trigonometrical, etc), that was before scientific calculators...:88)

Nice!
 
Thank you Mikhayl!

I have been having lots of trouble with manual targeting (RFB only no TMO) but I am finding practice, and lots and lots of reading (and re-reading) here at subsim is helping me get better.

Theres not much like something really complicated to keep me obsessively interested. I must have logged 20 hours yesterday alone either playing SHIV1.5 or surfing this site :oops:. I finally got a hit at 6AM eastern and it was a slop shot about 20° past the beam :rotfl:. Not entirely satisfied, but extremely tired, I just went to bed HAHA!

And to imagine it all started probly a year or more ago when I bought SHIII for 20US. It sat on a shelf collecting dust until a couple weeks ago. Needless to say, here I am! But I digress...

Thanks again and good hunting!
Mr Sargyano

What king of learning curve is there.....I know it will vary, but just a rough guess.

Nice!
 
Had to alter 146 lines in the .ini (RFB changed it) but it works like a champ.

sliderule image redux
 
I love this mod!
'only thing thouhg is that the included slide rule, as far as I've been able to find out, doesn't look much like the actual sliderules that would've been used on a fleetboat during the war... so I decided to rework the dds~

here's what the S495 Lawrence (standard Navy issue during the war) looks like:

here's what I modified the dds to look like:

and here's where you can download it: http://rapidshare.com/files/14051734...eRule.dds.html
