I noticed too that his is set for 6X & yours is for 15X.

My question is , do you have a tutorial on how to use your AOB tool?, or is Karamazovenew's tutorial adaptable to yours?
hi Buck_O,

all the AOB wheels works the same way.you only need to know at what zoom level are calibrated to work .
did you read the readsme.txt in documents?
from the readme:

''......
ATTACK PERISCOPE and OBS PERISCOPE
---------------------------------------

each mark at both horizontal and vertical scale (at both scopes) is 1 degree

note:
-----
if you count the half length of ship then each mark at horizontal scale (and only at horizontal) is 2 degrees

the rings for the AOB wheels are setted to work with the maximum zoom of each scope .in other words if you are at attack peri the aob wheel is working at x15 zoom and if you are at obs peri the aob wheel is working at x6 zoom.......''

read the whole readme for more info
other than that the procedure is exactly the same as described by Kara

have a look,also, here at post 79.maybe will help you : [REL] Manos Gui (MaGui)

I have just a question Markham; why in various mod the attack periscope is often "smaller" than observation one? It's an historical "reality" or it's just to have space to place all the button and dials?

Bye

hi Loltak and Storm,

both scopes have the same fov (in this case 32 degrees) .the obs scope 'looks' bigger becuase the viewport is bigger ....something like that we have 'put' our eye closer to it
