SWDW stepped away from the project and left it in LukeFF hands. At the time of the management change, my Ship Centered, Accuracy Fix (SCAF) was incorporated in RFB. Much like Optical Targeting Correction, it corrected the mast height measurements, giving a player a better chance of using the Stadimeter as it was intended. The fact that the stock game had ships producing found Stadimeter ranges off by as much as half the true range distance was the main focus.

LukeFF decided to remove SCAF from his version of RFB due to his idea that it gave a player too accurate of a Stadimeter reading. Nothing could be further from the truth, but that's the way he saw it. He even has gone so far has to have some ships deliberately list inaccurate mast height measurements, just for the ability of throwing off a player's range reading. His idea of the 'ol "fog of war" BS, that he thought was realistic.

I don't buy it!! I won't make another compatible mod for RFB 2.0. I'm tired of walking behind someone else's ideas. What I will do is make a mod that's better. Been working on it for a while, have no set time for completion.

fantastic, I would love to see a new mega mod for SH4
