Graprical Glitch In Vicker's Balao Interior

Fish40 · 11-17-13, 05:39 AM

I've been using Vicker's interior overhaul mods with RFB for some time with no apparent adverse effects. I know RFB did incorporate some of his interiors, but I believe it was only for the Gato and Balao class.I came across his Balao 3d interior overhaul in the D/L section. This seems to be an upgraded Balao interior based on Uss Pompanito. I installed the mod, and it looks fantastic except for one thing. For me, the depth gauges read different depths. The right hand and center (deep 600' gauge) read correctly, but the left hand gauge reads a different depth. It's almost as if the dial pointer is reversed. Strange to say the least, but not a big deal. I just position the view to block that gauge

Any ideas though?

Has anyone tried this mod found here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=3752 Anybody have the issue mentioned in the above post?

Do you know how to use S3D ?? Almost every gauge can be adjusted by editing the sim files. I mapped the stock, TMO, and Vickers gauges for my own information and I haven't seen this problem in any of Vickers interiors.

You're saying, in the Control room, the small gauge reads 600' and operates correctly but the left planesman's 165' gauge indicator points and operates backwards?

The interior wasn't made for RFB and that may be the problem is all I can think of. Sorry that I don't have a RFB install to test this at the moment.

Thanks aanker. You're correct. The right planesman and center gauge reads correctly, but the left planesman gauge is off. I realize the mod was made for TMO, but the Sargo/Salmon interior is just fine. I'm not going to start messing with files to adjust the gauge, as it's not a show stopper.

You got my curiosity up... lemme see if I can do something tomorrow.
