SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Which GUI for a beginner in manual targeting?

My Dearest Kaleuns,

After dozens of patrols and a huge amount of tonnage I finally got bored of sitting idle during my attacks while my weapons officer did all the work in a miraculously short time. All I had to do was to set the torpedo depth, detonation, speed and then push the little red button and enjoy the fireworks.

So, I want to get into manual targeting. The thing is, even though I watched many well prepared tutorial videos and reading clearly written manuals, I still can't get everything right during the training missions. (I'm terribly clumsy with all those maths stuff, I admit.)

Now, I think that GUIs make the manual targeting easier than unmodded user interface.(or that's what I understood from what people said about them) I downloaded a few GUIs. OLC Gold, hsGUI 3.1 and Manos GUI 3. Haven't tried any of them.

Which GUI do you suggest me to use? I prefer a GUI that doesn't cause problems with other mods and has a good tutorial.

Or should I go without a GUI?

Looking forward to your replies.

Vielen Dank im voraus!

Fatih
