Is there a mod that adds the TDC dials to the periscope screen?

During many attacks I often think,wouldnt it be great if I could update all torpedo data while still being able to look through the periscope,thereby increasing efficiency.I am sure there will be a mod out there and I was hoping someone could direct me to it? naturally this must be compatible with GWX3 and ideally the latest version of the mod.

I think so, because Sailor Steve recently posted a link to an old thread where he'd posted screenies of his setup at that time and I'm pretty sure one of them was of the periscope screen with the TDC dials arrayed across the top.

If so someone will no doubt be along shortly to enlighten us.

Yes, the Hitman Optics does this, but it also reduces the periscope magnification from 10X to 6X.

There are a few.
I heartily recommend this one
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...light=reloaded

Not only is it a beautifully made GUI, H.Sie has also included a few optional mods to go with it that he has made compatible.
eg. depth charge shake
longer repair times
seafloor repair
and more

Lots of interfaces put the torp. controls at the periscope station, but they all alter other aspects of the game, so finding one that fits can be a bit of a hunt.

OLC-gold and Manos GUI, also have tools that let you visually calculate range, speed and A.O.B. They look similar but work differently in some key ways.


I haven't tried Raptors interface yet (I'm pretty happy with Manos)but it looks interesting too.
