Default [REL]Manos Optics-Final

UPDATED 10/6/09
-----------------

minor change to 'MANOS OPTICS-ADD ON'
----------------------------------------

i have put the compass at a higher place at attack peri becuase it was a little annoying when using the stadimeter.
get it from my filefront page,instruction are in the readme
the attack peri with the compass higher:



UPDATED 21/5/09
-----------------

MANOS OPTICS-add on
----------------------

this is an add-on to ''MANOS OPTICS''

The idea of the reversed uzo is now for use at attack peri too.meaning...place the horizontal line at the top mast of the ship and read the mark that waterline is showing at scale
and some other tiny things that all described in the incuded readme

this add-on is for both ''MANOS OPTICS (reversed uzo)-x6'' and ''MANOS OPTICS (reversed uzo)-x15''

pics:





UPDATED 20/5/09
-----------------

for those who have download my mod before 20/5/09 : you will find from today(20/5/09) at my filefront page and at subsim's download section the ''MANOS OPTICS (reversed uzo)'' which containes the reversed range finder scale at uzo
I am thanking Pisces for his wonderfull idea to change (reverse) the position of the range finder scale
WARNING: DON'T REPLACE the older uzo image with the new one! disable the ''MANOS OPTICS'' and enable the ''MANOS OPTICS (reversed uzo)''

''MANOS OPTICS'' is the final version of my previous mod ''new optics+stadimeter-set x15'' and ''new optics+stadimeter-set x6''
(only for use with olc's gui 127)

from the read me

changes
-------
1.new images for attack periscope and observation periscope (sh4-look)
2.all cameras at optics devices (attack and obs peri and uzo) are now fuctional when game is paused.so...take your measurments.... drinking coffee ;-)
3.new image for the uzo.i have used parts of the wac and olc's gui uzo images in order to create this one.i am thanking both of HANSOLO and ONELIFECRISIS for their images

UZO
---
the new uzo is basically designed for use at night

you will notice a new vertical scale (red colour).the use of this scale is:place the ABOVE RED HORIZONTAL LINE to the top mast of the ship and read the mark that the waterline is showing on scale and then :

10x(mark)x(mast)=range

it is jsgme ready , can be found here: http://hosted.filefront.com/makman94
and at subsim's download section


The new look of uzo (with the reversed range finder scale) :

I was wondering. Can you raise that line and flip the red scale downwards? The line on the mast-end and the scalemark on the waterline would seem to work easier. But a caveat here: I haven't used such a scale before in earnest.

i a not sure that i understand exactly what you mean Pisces,but the scale can be put ANYWHERE you want (and the same goes for horizontal line too---i did it this way becuase we all are used to work with the horizontal line)
but remember:when you want to use the scale (and you had put it somewhere else ) you must 'put' the waterline at the base of the scale

edit: i got your point Pisces,you see my english are betrating me! yes it is possible to be done.the horizontal line up and it will need a reverse og the scale.very nice idea !! lets see it in action,i will try it.thank you

Cool. . .

Impressive work!

I am so impressed, I think about manual targeting now, after 3,5 years with SH3 (and only SH3).

Thank you Macman94. You opened new horizons in Onelifecrisis work. . .

. . . with the WAC version

@NGT: thank you very much but hold on a second! the idea of the scale belongs to olc (so credits to him).i am only made a more acurate and fuctional scale (and a 'new' uzo look ....but this has to do with everyones tastes)
wac's version is already...ready! but Pisces gave me a very good idea and i will change the uzo's scale.when it will be ready it will be released

@Pisces : you meant something like this right ? ( the horizontal line that sh3's engine produce is impossible to go up there) :

hello Anubis2k24,
yes,you can do this but you will first run tha olc's gui 127.(only the core files)
immediatelly then ''manos optics(reversed uzo) x15 or x6'' and immediatelly then ''manos optics-add on''

read very carefully the readme texts.
