Welcome aboard!
Okay. Yesterday I was going through some of the other countries and only saw warships. Some countries are easy to make out but some titles had German stlye lettering which I was trying to figure out if they had "Merchants" spelled in German or not.
There's a seperate recog manual for the merchants. Page thru the different nationalities.
I'm assuming you're doing manual targeting using the notepad. I believe you click on "SPEED" on the note pad and time the ship as it passes through the vertical crosshair on the scope/UZO. You then have to send it to the TDC. I believe you have to get range and AOB first for this to work.
I've never really used the notepad method, so I can't say for sure though.
I've always used the 3:15 rule for getting speed information. distance traveled (in meters) in 3 minutes 15 seconds divided by 100=speed in knots.(EX: 700 meters in 3:15=7 knots)
No. I'm new to SH4(been playing SH3 for a couple of years), but I like that little feature in SH4. Not as exciting as hitting the "C" key and crash diving in SH3 though. Love the alarm bells.
Once you get your feet wet with stock, I highly recommend getting one of the supermods-GWX, NYGM, WAC. I play with with GWX Gold and love it. Also get SH3Commander. An add on program that makes the immersion factor a little better.
