[TEC] Manual TDC Tutorial Video

reaper7 · 03-08-10, 08:35 PM

Hi I've uploaded a tutorial on Manual TDC for those wishing to learn the next step up from Auto TDC.
This is not at 100% realism so map contacts are displayed But these techniques can still be used for 100% realism.

This tutorial shows a solution from over 4000m and a target heading away from the ideal firing position to show just how versatil manual firing can be.

Hope you enjoy and find it helpful.

Thank you so much for this! Few questions, when you're calculating the firing angle, do you want to aim at the part of the ship you used with your protractor? Also, what are those gauges at the bottom right of your screen, and why don't I have them?

Capt.Warner · 03-08-10, 09:36 PM

The gauges are from a mod.Look around in the mods section.

You hit the target, but your AOB was off.

Hey sir-

Any chance you could upload to mediafire or something? I'm currently in Germany and the 'video is no longer available' as it contains music from Sony Entertainment Co.

Thanks!

Yes 1 degree can make a big difference at long range That shot was close to 4340 meters out. That can have a margin of almost 50 meters just from 1 degree.

Again the method I employed is quick to calculate while you have your target in the scope.
While I do trake targets over alonger period and set up there tracks with more percesion. and have my AoB preset for a certain radial that the target will cross over before firing.
This is a quick and easy method that works for me over 90% of the time at close and long range.
And that for achives more kills than trying to line up numbers with the Auto method (If one could call it auto

).

Will try to get a new more indepth vid done soon.

A little distracting when you're trying to read.
