Nav map ruler & protractor don't work

I've got a problem with my navigations map. When I use the ruler & protractor, whatever I draw is always about 4 cms away from where I draw it. It's like the tools and map are somehow out of aligment. Just can't draw a line where I want it and I am in the middle of tracking a convoy .
The other map tools work fine.
It does it both in career and in single missions.
The mods I am using are GWX 2, Wolf's U-boat 1.2. I also use SH3 Commander and the SH3 1.4 patch.
What's going on? I've not even had anything to drink yet!

Default had the same problem

I believe it is something to do with uboat 1.2. If you made any changes, to the Uboat 1.2 tools for the map this happens. I fixed mine by installing the uboat 1.2 mod fresh. I didnt like the nomo that appears on the side and when I removed the nomo.tga file I encountered the problem you are describing. ONce put back it returned to normal.

Many thanks Emaluza, I'll give it a go. The only problem is, I haven't a back-up of Uboat 1.2! Stupid, I know. Now I can't find it on the forums because JC Wolf's site has been closed down. Tragic after all the work he's put in.
Anybody got any suggestions?

I'm sorry to tell you that it's not the tools, but the problem lays with you my friend, get some glasses or stop drink the entire crew ration nips of alcohol:rotfl:
