Passive intercept range estimation

[Ula Jolly]

(God damn that huge picture!)
The skippers of real submarines are often - I dare trust without knowing firsthand - very smart.
Only at 3:00 in the morning yesterday, lying awake in bed, could I figure out how the Typhoon in RSR (I assume it was in that book) could fake its turn.
Well, I haven't really found that out yet, I'm just assuming that it combined turning and change in speed to make the impression for the enemy TMA operators that its turning was different than it actually was.
I mean, real skippers are bloody smart. And not just smart! They have an entire crew subordinate to them that are calculating this and everything, at all times, providing information for him/her to use.

In my eyes, it is not cheating if one to a degree simulates all this through calculations and third-hand instruments, as long as it stays within the capacity of a real skipper. Trust is essential in MP.
The excellent skippers are those who are able to do as much of these calculations in their own heads, on the spot, without much help.

MS, tested the software as a relief from the depth-chargeing roofers and kids torpedoing everything -

From my new avator it looks as if I've cracked, at last.

I have the software up and running but it does not reflect /respond to in-game sound. I guess it operates with a sound card ?
My PC sound is not hardware accelerated - I have no soundcard as the sound is 'software' based and integrated.

Perhaps there is a work-around ? Disappointing as it would be interesting to co-relate the visual patterns
and signal intensities with ping performance at various ranges etc. :hmm:

Just a brief word about the wonders of technoligical development in relation to 'kids torpedoing'

A great leap forward has been made with the introduction of the DVD player its principle advantage over
the VHS cassette recorder is the size of its orifice. (Excuse the expression on a Sunday)

Experiments here have shown that it is 'kid proof' Only the very determined can now force the remains
of a half-eaten sandwich into its sensitive interior.

Aint progress great ?

When you lauch Gram11 go to file/sound card control

the soud card control panel open and you can select the source, in my control panel I have : what you ear, microphone, cd, aux, etc....
I select 'what you ear', if you have not this choice in the panel, click on options then propreties, recording and check if there is a box with 'what you ear' and select it.

If you dindn't have this contol you can install VAC (virtual audio cable) and you can redirect to a vrtual input the sound ouptut so you can use gram11.

I am using a USB plantronic microphone headset but to test gram11 I have to disconnect it because Gram11 select automaticlly the microphone so you can try also to disconnect the microphone during the tests.
