Some “how to fix something’s” on star patrol, kills flags and deck gun.

Have been use this forum for a number of years (same handle, different emails address) and have downloaded mod for SH, 2, 3 and 4. Love most I use and usually if I have a question I just searched the forum and I find what I need. But, now as time has gone on and some of the thing that was easily availably in 2008 give or take a couple of years are now not so easily found. So I have a couple of questions to ask.

How, please in some detail, how do you put star patrol and kill flags on the conning tower? I have been using GIMP2 to get the star and flags done…very hard for me, but over time I get something I like….Now to get them on the tower, don’t have a clue?

I’m using OTC (patched to 1.4) mod and others, manual targeting, learning still but fun, but on the deck gun I’m finding that there is a bad glitch and that is there seems to be an extra zero add to the negative number or sometime to the output in the program. I mean that if the target is about 1200y away, range by map and dividers, Scope and using the Staometer, go to the gun sights set at 1300, aim at the largest part and fire…hit about 200 feet in front of the gun, but you look at the cross without the gun sight, look up about 30 degrees, then look into the scope and the sight is around 12000, put you crosshair on the same area …. Big hit at the rails. So how does one fix that?
