Yes, you should get that "Pacific Aces Dev Team" changed to include Submarine Technology History Proffesor. :up:

yes Hitman, it looks like it was able to move up-down . so,as far you know, the uzo was only for bearing readings? or had other uses too?

ps: the sailorman looks very huppy in your foto ! :D
serving the u-boats........

The UZO was an aiming device, its function was only to transmit the line of bearing. The distance was estimated by the IWO with his experience, and using the lense of teh UZO as reference. For example, a 125 metres long ship at 90º AOB covers the full lense.

Later war models -not very extended- had apparently a stereoscopic rangefinding system, which was useful at short distances like the shooting ones were.

In SH3, the most realistic way to represent this is to ask your IWO and think of him as well trained in this (There were some very capable IWOs in the U-Boats, with an excellent eye for estimating distance and speed)

but this demands all uzo to be set at a given zoom, right?

well, i have to say here that my WO has the eye of eagle ! he can distinguish the difference of 100m at 15km !!

anyway, thank you for your answers :up:

Yes, it was. The zoom was fixed at 7,25º degrees aperture, 7.1x zoom.

Wow...
 

Is there anyway this could b incorporated into GWX3? I'm just loving what i'm seeing here...

hello Anubis2k24,
yes,you can do this but you will first run tha olc's gui 127.(only the core files)
immediatelly then ''manos optics(reversed uzo) x15 or x6'' and immediatelly then ''manos optics-add on''

read very carefully the readme texts.

bye

minor change to 'MANOS OPTICS-ADD ON'
 

hello,

i changed the place of compass at attack peri (put it in a higher place) becuase it was a little annoying when using the stadimeter

check the OP, is updated

bye
