[REL] OLC 'Gold' MkIId

[Pisces]

I've uploaded some of OLC's files to my Filefront page. But the really big files (+100MB) have been removed recently. Only the GuiSpecial video is there. And maybe a few pdf tutorials.

Filefront's '4 days deletion queue'-email warning is just a load of cr@p. Never got the chance to un-queue those files, and no response to my emails ofcourse. The files were gone before I even had read my email that day.

I'll upload the videos to SUBSIM at some point, but in the meantime they are available at UberTorpedo's FF page.

Yep that's UberTorpedo who helped me out last time I was in need of something about Ubermod. Thanks.

I already know the basics from Pisces OLCGuiSpecial_Tutorial. Will see what I can find more.

Hey, OLC, I found one problem with wiz-wheel in OLC Gold. Not sure are u aware of it so here it is: When I switched from TDC to whiz wheel and pointed the mouse arrow somewhere outside the wheel circle, I can't exit cam view after that.

Contact,

Can you post a screenshot of this whiz-wheel from OLC Gold, I can't seem to find anything like that in the attack periscope view (F3) but I can't seem to clcik on it.

Many Thanks

Correction it's the Attack disk. It's where TDC is. You can see a tiny little dot at the middle of the TDC panel. Click on it and here it is.

Explain that again, please? What does "exit cam view" mean?

Ups, looks like historically UZO was not used to calculate anything.

Correct, but range could be visually estimated fairly accurately by a man standing on the bridge of a U-boat (up to a certain distance). To get the range in the OLC GUI UZO just multiply the UZO mark by the mast height. The marks did not exist on the real UZO; they exist in OLC GUI only as a way of "simulating" the ability to estimate the range in real life.

Ahmm.. When you switch to the Attack disk and point your mouse outside the disk you can rotate the cam outside the disk right ? However I couldn't find the way to release cam and switch back to SH3 pointer arrow..

No big deal hitting F1 solved the problem
