What Gui do u prefer using GWX?

[SnipersHunter]

There are some white Screen and 4:3 GUi's like Conus or Magui or OLC etc. Which of them do u prefer and why?

[Jimbuna]

I prefer the one that is in the original GWX supermod tbh but that doesn't mean I consider others to be inferior.

I use OLC GUI 1.2.7. The mod came with an instructional video and PDF file for manual targeting and that's how I learned to do my own targeting. Once I find something I like, I stick with it. It's an age thing.

Most of the GUI I use is straight GWX v3, with Captain Teach’s Color Icons for the buttons and with FB Sale’s large slider compass added in. (I don’t actually use the GUI much, as I play using voice command.) But for the scope and UZO pages, I use Hitman’s Optics. No notepad, no stadimeter, and no in-game aids. I use DIY hand-held two-sided angriffscheibe and RAOBF as attack aids. I also use Tycho's analog watch with no digital readouts for speed, depth, etc. All analog, very spartan, very 1940's. I try to avoid that "computerized" look-and-feel as much as possible.

MAgui just used to it I guess.

I didn't like much the GWX default GUI even if I found it better then stock SH GUI. Then I installed MaGUI and since then I'm happy.

I like the MaGUI. Perfect GUI mod for me

[GreyBeard]

I tried all of those mentioned here already and finally decided on the relatively stock GWX Gui. I generally make subtle changes to the Gui that are more to my personal liking. I also tried the hsGUI and I may try that again for my next career.

[Warren Peace]

Currently I'm running MaGUI, decided to give it a shot after a clean-slate protocol (I broke SHIII and couldn't figure out what broke it).

Prior to that I ran OLC Gold with ACM Reloaded.

I can vouch for both being very, very good, and up to personal preference as to which is 'superior'. So far, I'm liking MaGUI a bit more, but I think it's because I have new toys to learn, where as I had OLC pretty much mastered.

At the Magui useres are u using the widescreen version?

Not me.
I thought about it when I discovered the possibilities to play in widescreen mode but then I was already accotumated to the 4:3 ratio and I play 1024x768 on a native display of 1366x768.
To be honest I really do not feel the need for the widescreen mode.

I use FLB_Sales's 'Simfeeling 6-Dials' mod. All six major dials are very large slideouts and there is nothing on the screen ever unless I call it up. As for targeting, well, I'm not much good at math or perceptive thinking, so I still use WE Assistance. No GUI at all. Also no widescreen.

Steve, I just want thank you for the inspiration. I don't use a GUI much, and when responding to this thread, I realized that I had already implemented all the button commands as keystrokes, which are activated by Eric Knepfler's SHSpeech software. So all the officers are out of sight on a slider. But I thought I still needed the dials because dial-setting is the way SHSpeech enters speed, depth, course, etc. When you mentioned the FLB_Sale's slideouts, it got me thinking. I decided to try and put all the dials onto slideouts which SHSpeech would pull out as needed. Took a little fiddling, but now it works fine! I have just the 2D and 3D screens with a transparent message bar. If I want to check depth or speed, I go to the control room and look at the gauges. I also got rid of all digital readouts on the sliders, except for TC, which is a computer artifact anyway. It is a cool way to play. (I tried this first a while ago with SH5, which has a more integrated voice command and was easier to do.) Now I no longer have a "dashboard" or "instrument panel" (maybe "Google Glass?") floating in front of me whenever I look around. All I see are my surroundings - the sub interior or the bridge view. So I guess my preferred GUI is - no GUI at all!

Hey than i already achieved sth with my thread
Btt: i use OLC with ACM for the AOB Tool i think the scale is better than the one in MaGui

[ming]

Does anyone know of a mod that uses the OM dials from sh4 or even if they are at all compatible with sh3? Stock gwx ui would be sweet with a few tweaks like one of the various officer icons and the glassy looking dials from the sh4 u-boats. The boarinstrument 1.0 mod has the best gauges, imo. Just found them and they are pretty good!
