I use FLB Sales's '6-Dials Simfeeling' mod. All guages are huge, all guages and the icons are slide-outs. My screen is always empty unless I want to look at something.

I know the feeling :DL

Never found any reason to change my original interface.
It's not broke, so I ain't fixin' it.

MaGui 3.4 target set-up
 
Fastfed,

I'm in a similar position to what you describe.
I've returned to SH3 after a considerable absence.
I used to use OLC Gold Option 3, and had a "Check List" for Manual Targeting taken from OLC's video tutorials. After some repetitive training on my part, it worked. Many hits..!!

I decided to upgrade my SH3 set-up after browsing the SH3 Mods Forum, and subsequently downloaded MaGui 3.4 as an alternative.
In having a few trial runs via Naval Academy Convoy Attack and Happy Times Single Mission to become acquaint with MaGui, I find the markings on the Whiz Wheel have slightly changed from OLC. (ie 58 degrees was the red marker to indicate target speed).

Therefore like you, I'm missing easy targets. :damn:
Hopefully I set the TDC correctly, so I can only assume my calculations from the Attack Periscope Whiz Wheel must therefore be wrong.

I'm currently searching for a tutorial on MaGui to find my error. There's a "Angriffsscheibe Handbuch", but that relates to the separate Attack Disc unit.

I was intrigued by your "SET KEYS MOD" and if this might solve the problem, but that's I assume introducing Assisted Targeting which the MaGui is trying to get away from. However, I can't find the mod in SH3 Downloads or via the Forum Search Engine to investigate.

Advice from any Kaluens on MaGui 3.4 Manual Targeting such as a Check List/Set of Instructions, or alternatively where the Set Keys Mod info is located and, if it would be appropriate, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

@Harryt8

MaGui 3.4 includes an optional mod in its main directory (TorpedoSolutionButton for MaGui 3.4.rar) which restores W.O. assistance, so you don't need SetKeys to get this function.

You have to unpack the rar and enable it separately through JSGME - - it works just as Weiss Pinguin described above.

hello guys,

you don't need setkeys or things like these !

all that you need are inside the MaGui 's .rar

you will find in there two files with the names ''TorpedoSolutionButton for MaGui 3.4 (NYGM-GWX-WAC)'' and ''TorpedoSolutionButton for MaGui 3.4 (LSH3)'' .read the instructions for the installation .
these files are giving you back the WO torpedo solution button
have in mind that in ANY case ,at the start options the ''NO weapon officer assistance'' must be UNCHECKED .

@ Harryt8 : The measures ,when you are on attack peri, must be taken at the higher zoom level ( at x15).
discs are setted to work on this zoom level so thats why you see some differences with Olc's discs
note: at obs scope the discs are working on x6 zoom
read the readme ''Manos Optics'' for more info.

also,have a look at this post....might help you a little...
