Both needles are pointing forward....
Any way, if you decide to let the chjanges in that way, can you made a little guide about how to mod it ?
I prefer my both, bow and stern dive planes icons in correct hydrodinamical position for incoming waterflow.

Hi Red,
The problem is thats only one picture. Look at all the other pictures that show it the other way....they are real pictures too, are they not? This is whats frustrating about it....there's really no one real way. Some have it with red scales on top, others dont. Some have up to 25 degrees, others 30 degrees. etc....
The only thing I can do is find some middle ground so to speak....I based it on the majority of pictures that I've seen on the net (I've spend over an hour searching for photos). Then I took into consideration of the fact that the developers of the game had the scales positioned the same way. I even looked at SH2 screenshots and the scales are also this way: (there is an ad at first, just give it a moment to load)

No one said back then that they were wrong.
If I make them the other way then someone might complain and say it should be the other way and show me a picture that proves their point. It is impossible to make everyone happy; I wish I could. So in the end I went the "safe" route and chose to depict the gauges in the way that was most common.
You do make a very good point though...it is more logical to depict the aft gauge in relation to the water flow over it. The problem is I already completed all the textures for all of the interior files (stock & bordinstrument). Also, I didn't keep the early version of the new gauge in photoshop where everything was in layers for easy editing. Too much work is involved to change them at this point and I really lack the time.
When the mod is completed I'll make a post here of where they are located in the .sim files so people can edit them to their preference.
