Now if your using a GUI mod you best just look up a tutorial as that would be another page to explain. Like I said before though, I use OLC GUI because it has the Range/Angle Disk

For anyone looking to try Manual targeting, this will greatly help you make your calculations:

So, does this work with GWX3? I've just installed that and I know it has a lot of different mods integrated already, so I didn't want to end up with any conflicts.

olc gold is made to install over top of gwx. you can find it near the top of the downloads section for sh3 if you sort by number of downloads.

I use OLC 1.2.7 and I use it with GWX3 and occasionally with the new interiors mod. But when I use those two together (NI + OLC) I lose the zoom on the periscope.

But yeah it works fine with GWX3, I would post pics but that would take forever to load, take pics, upload them ect.

BTW, is there a way to make OLC Gold "MkII" compatible with the Alternatives Flotillas from GWX3 or was it "implemented within OLC Gold?

No, it wasn't implemented in OLG Gold. There is maybe a way to make these two compatible but you'd have to modify the en_menu.txt file. That said, i'm not certain that this would be the only file requiring alteration.

I guess this happens because both mods use a modified version of cameras.dat file plus OLC's GUI is not compatible with the NI mod.

it is said that GWX runs fine if stock SH3 does.
no extra CPU-power needed.

as for GUIs regarding manual targetting:
I tried now MaGUI 3.1 which I consider not so hard-core difficult like OLC Gold MkIId
Hitman's GUI has still to be installed and tried out, it looks very nice, plain and highly functional.

I just recently started playing SHIII in "hardcore mode." I had dabbled with it a couple years back, but never really got into it. Just recently had the itch to really play it. So I started out playing max realism, and built this:

Things freakin awesome. The backside's the meat of it, calculates law of sins, speed conversions (meters per second to knots) and all sorts of other things.

There's a "Handbook" .pdf with examples here:

Good gouge, and with practice you can get very quick with it. No better feeling then using it successfully.
