Introduction and a question

[andycts]

First of all just like to say what great forums you guys have got here.This is the first post i have made,but have been playing sh3+sh4 since they were released.(so an old guy now lol).By browsing these forums i have been able to learn much about these fantastic sims and how to mod them correctly over the years,thank you all!.Just a word of thanks to all modders,what you have done with these games is unbelievable.And now to my question,i am running tmo 2-5 with OTC+a few small mods.Since installing OTC i cannot use the conversion charts(speed+time)which were attached to the gramophone in TMO they are not there anymore.Is there a way i can get them back or download pdf version.There is a button that says gramophone+charts but all i get is the gramophone.Thanks again(might make an habit of this lark)

Welcome aboard Andycts! You're the second newby I welcomed today. We like newbies, their easy to push around.

It sounds like you're having fun. The mods do an incredible job improving the game.

Since you're an experienced submariner, then you need a job with responsiblity. Cap Wernher VonTrapp needs a new XO, I think you'll do well. The last one had a mental breakdown of some sort. The details are ugly.

hi fireftr18,thanks for the welcome.will have to pass on the XO job,sounds nasty.all the best and happy hunting.

Welcom aboard sailor

Correct me if I'm wrong but a 'time / distance / speed' conversion chart is attached on the right side of the Nav.map and you don't need anything els.

I don't recall ever having another chart for it but then again I'm fairly new Subsim wise.

You're talking about the nomograph that is permanently printed in the UR corner of the nav chart. I think andycts is talking about something else. I much prefer the nomograph, but some people like charts or tables.

Thanks everybody,

I am now wondering if i might have got things mixed up with SH3 GWX.The charts show how far you will travel in X hours at X speed.Has SH4 ever had anything like this? (O dear,my old memory)
Anyway i have found pdf versions of these charts,problem is i believe they are copies of the ones used in GWX and therefore are in Km.so will need to convert to Nm

all the best-now go sinkem

I know the charts you're talking about and SH4 definitely has them in one version or other. I keep telling myself I should use them more, but I've never looked for that particular one since I loaded OTC. I didn't think it was missing though....

[andycts]

yes i am sure they were there.possibly with just TMO but not after OTC is activated

thanks in_vino
