[REL] Thomsen's Dials V2 - Compatibility issue fixed - (08/11/2008)

November 11th

New version is out.

- Now 100% compatible with interior diving angles mod and open hatch mod
- New version also fixes the rudder needle to go up to 40 degrees

This is a very simple mod really.

Fixes the depth gauges. They are measuring the depth wrongfully. If you set your depth to 260 meters, you'll see that the needle is actually marking 257.

Plus, this mod allows the needle to go past 260, so you can have those "Das Boot" moments, while being depth charged. There are numerous stories about uboats that have gone around 280 and survived to tell, plus its great to use this together with SH3 Commander's option to randomize depth. I recommend you set the cfg file to:

Upper=1.2
Lower=0.9

That way, the uboat's hull should collapse somewhere between 234 and 312 meters, and the needle can to up to 315, which is pretty much near the zero marker, that was in real-life where the needle stopped rotating.

This mod corrects the gauges for the sonar room, the conning tower and the two gauges in the command room, the main big one and the small one near the map, aside the clock.



I'm uploading it now, as soon as I remember my password at FileFront. The mod is small, 21 kb.
