How do you calculate AOB - Frustrated!!

Reece · 12-10-07, 11:00 PM

Hi, after many attempts I'm at the point of throwing it in! I must say that manual targeting in SH3 is much easier! By the time I have come up with a AOB and gone to the stadimeter to select & enter it, then select the PK it's way out, the torpedo's miss by around 500 yards!! I'm doing something wrong!

I looked up tutorials but most go way over my head, especially this AOB by ratio method, I have tried to watch some of the videos but quality is poor and sound is very low & the whole thing is too fast to get what's going on. On Gizzmoes Video where does he get his AOB settings from, he doesnt go to map to calculate he just guesses in a second, enters it & it is correct, how does he do it!!!

Can someone please assist or point me to a tutorial that is easy to follow, I must say the manual says very little on this topic, Thanks in advance.

PS. I'm not a mathematician.
