flag4 · 02-13-08, 10:04 AM

hii hunters

many thanks

Remove the mods that will cause conflict first... Select NO on that option. I didn't even try to click yes. Btw that mode OLC is AWSOME. The game gets as realistic as i've seen it. Attack disk, Range and AOB finder, those were the actual instruments used on a U-boat. Plus a very nice video tutorial to teach you how to work with the instruments. One thing missing on the video was more emphasis on ploting on the map (right before the disk he goes My watch officer says bearing 301, thats 59 bearing relative to course). I figured it out myself with simple maths but i can imagine it's not obvious to some people and you absolutely don't want to get that wrong if you play 100% realism GWX 2.0 and contacts off (if patch GWX 2.0 in any way to re enable the ship tails in contacts you can't call that GWX 2.0, that's just my oppinion, GWX 2.0 is for the true hardcore :rotfl:

)

My english is poor. I'm sorry, Olc guy mod work on GWX2? If yes, where can I download?

flag4, you can safely enable CA's icons after enabling the GUI (though I do recommend you at least try the icons included in the GUI to see if you like them). You'll still get the warning message but it's just that: a warning, not (in this case) an error.

SteelJackal, yes it works with GWX2. Click the image in my sig to go to the OLC GUI thread.

thanks Nuoz,

i left this bit out, it may clarify things for me: this is what comes up in the warning box and doesnt when i disable cpt. americas icons. im going to assume it is safe to install OLC GUI with cpt americas icons disabled

please note:

"officerA.tga" has already been altered by the "gwx - captain america's officer icons" mod.

"officerB.tga" as above......

No problem man, look if you see those i recommend disabling all mods until you see no warnings. Better safe than sorry.

Oh and don't forget to check out the tutorial. Really nicely done and helpful. Too bad he didn't take more time to explain plotting in depth though. Still awsome! Have fun!
