You can keep the Observation Scope lowered with python scripting. DarkWraith did that with his UI mod. :)

As part of the def InitializeScript(): block in data\Scripts\Menu\Page Default Hud.py, add the line in green as shown (make sure it's indented like the lines above it) below. It would be line 2816 of the default script.

Code:

    SetDepthScaleType( DepthScaleTypes.Shallow )

    InitializeMapTools( True )

    Game.SubmarineCommands.ExecuteCommand( "Lower_whole_obs_periscope" )



def UnloadScript():

    Menu["DisplayPlayerGuidanceButtonByName"] = None

Thanks Ky, now I just got to figure out how to edit .py files ;] LOL NM guess notepad does the trick

Is it possible to keep the Scope from raising every time you go to the Periscope View?:06: I have been spotted because I left periscope view and didnt lower scope and when I returned to periscope view the periscope raised to full height.:haha: DOH!:damn:

Also, I was searching for a usable GR2 editor. I found Granny Editor but it costs $12,000.00 US. Does a GR2 editor exist that actually lets you do something to the model that doesn't cost a small fortune?:06:

How did Reboot get the drips from the bunker to inside the sub ? Did he use goblin ? I want to pack the sub with provisions/ boxes etc .

does editing a file in goblin editor make the change a perminent? or do you need to use jdgme to install it?

When you save it, it does, It is always a good idea to make a backup of the /data folder.
and sober, that usually means that you did something wrong, like didnt load a sim or zone, when you have lots of them, or removed a controller you could try reloading wish I could see the whole window.

I hope someone can help me with this. I followed the instructions and loaded the torpedo sim file to check out the parameters, but I get an error message and every file has the notation "lost controllers" and I cant seem to open any file.:damn:

did you load the torpedo gr2 file before the sim file?
