[REL] Charts Addon 1.3
Additional pulldown / slide charts. Installation through JSGME if using GWX+Magui F or NYGM+MaGui F, otherwise manually editing menu_1024_768.ini.
Features: Less clicking through the ship recognition manual - ship identification can now be made using 12 pulldown charts. Some of the ships in Merchant Fleet Mod are also modded inEasier or faster navigation map usage - a table with values of sin and cosine for course and range calculationsAdded visual weather assessment aids - Beaufort Wind Scale and Douglas Sea Scale slideouts added to Bridge for assessing sea states. One can now edit the weather report out from the game or not use it at all, and see if one can make accurate enough weather reports by one's own visual assessmentUsage of Hitman Beta GUI style optics in non-Hitman GUI's -Hitman's Gegnerfahrt table for quick speed assessment when using the fixed wire system and E-messtafel for quick range assessment as slideouts in UZO and periscopesFaster torpedo settings - a chart giving the required bearings for straight shots (perpendicular shots with the torpedo settings set as 0 gyroangle, enemy speed 0, enemy aob 0)Faster fuel load assessment - a new fuel gauge with numbers added to scale, so that it is easier to approximate how much fuel one has useShip speed assessment with the hydrophone - three charts that help assessing the speed of a ship by counting the RPM’s one can hear in the hydrophone. The charts are based on NYGM 3.6A and IABLShipsforNYGM_New, but the chart should work at least partly in other supermods and vanilla SH3 as wellDownload from: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=3675 EDIT: The 8th of September, 2012: added a chart for helping in estimating when to shoot torpedoes to achieve simultaneous hits at different targets. More info here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...=198016&page=2 The 22nd of January, 2013: a new version uploaded that corrects the folder structure that made it impossible for JSGME to work. Thanks to ninja turtle, brett25 and Anvar1061 for pointing the problem and finding the solution The 23rd of January, 2013: a new version uploaded that corrects a typo from menu_1072_768.ini sometimes causing a crash when using Hitman's Gegnerfahrttable chart. Big thanks to Robin40 The 26th of March, 2013: a new version uploaded that corrects the AOB picture getting in the way of the dials in an annoying way. Thanks to Olsin for pointing the problem out The 4th of August, 2013: I finally had some time to install NYGM. The mod installs ok, at least if the configuration is like the one pictured above. The 8th of August, 2013: An updated version 1.3 with three new RPM/speed charts The 30th of September, 2013: Version 1.4. released with charts for NYGM+IABLnew+TMT, maneuvering board instructions, attack disk instructions, Tycho's 4-grid scheme, etc Last edited by sublynx; 09-30-13 at 02:09 AM.

Thank you for the nice comments
@VonHarris: It's me who should thank you since the idea came from your initiative in an earlier discussion in SH3 Mod Workshop I edited the maneuvering-board.tga file a little bit to make it a little bit easier to see. Here's a link to the new version: http://www.gamefront.com/files/22141...ering-board.7z If the link does not work, the package in Subsim downloads now contains the newer tga. I also found out while playing that the line tool in MaGui F was too big to my taste while using the maneuvering board. If you decide to change the line tool to a smaller version, edit mouse.cfg to this: [Cursor 3] Name=Line XO=127;XO=282 YO=129;YO=283 The XO,YO gives the co-ordinates for the cursor. Play around with the values if your line tool pic does not fit the example I gave.

bstanko6 pointed out a mistake in the positioning of aobpics.tga. As it is the picture covers a part of the attack periscope up and down dials.
Solution: edit the part controlling aobpics.tga in menu_1024_768.ini to look like this: [G26 I6] Name=aobslide Type=1026 ItemID=0x2620F005 ParentID=0x26000000 Pos=50,768,100,800 VertSlide=768 The only changed part should be the Pos line.

First post edited. Version 1.4. can now be downloaded from here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=3675 The download version in Subsim has no relevant differences to the Beta version that could be downloaded from the link a few posts earlier |

I'll try and use this new version once I'm back in Kiel (I'm presently sinking merchants on the coast of Canada) I've been following the changes pointed out by Olsin. Looking good Good hunting |

I had to reinstall SH3 and while doing that I decided to install NYGM. I'm happy to say that Charts addon can be installed through JSGME, at least if the configuration is like the one on the screenshot below:
