Die Hard Realism Question

BarnesBL0278 · 09-01-16, 01:19 AM

Gentlemen,
In keeping with the threat title here, I warn you that my post might seem petty to some, but it's driving me nuts.

The stopwatch in RFB 2.0 has been reshaped to what looks like a Hamilton 23, which is great, but damned if it isn't quartz. As I'm sure some of you old farts know, that tick, tick, tick sound with one second jumps didn't happen until the 60's. Hamilton 23's were pure mechanical, which meant a continuous second hand. Currently, the sweep hand (big center second hand) does this, but the sub second hand (little one at the bottom) does not. It clicks once per second as opposed to 18,000 an hour or whatever it's supposed to be.

Now, to my knowledge and limited experimentation, this seems to be the case with all the chronos. So my question is two fold:
1) Is there a mod currently available to correct this issue.
2) If the above is not true, is there a config file that I can tinker with and possible correct it myself?

On a less nitpicky note, I have a third question, and being a lifelong lurker and allergic to multiple threads, I'll post it here:
Can anyone tell me what the most die-hard balls-to-the-wall over the top grognard realism mod list is, and what are the best graphic mods to go with that?

Thank you gentlemen for your time,
Barnes
