Now it works fine. Thanks for the fast fix!

Did you make any changes with the zoom factor here, or is the zoom level the same as in the TWoS mod /stock game!?

I have to study the zoom factor in UZO and in binoculars. In TWOS update 2.10 the UZO has value 7x and in the binoculars the zoom factor is bigger, for example at least 8x. I do not know the historical values but I will inform ASAP.

Hi All!!!

The values in zoom levels of the optics are the following:

------------ BIN ---- UZO --- OBS --- PERI-----------
__________________________________________
1.2 vanilla -7x------7x------ 1x-4x -- 1x-4x
__________________________________________
TWoS 2.0 --8x------ 7x----- 1.5x-6x -1.5x-6x
__________________________________________
TWoS 2.1 --8x------ 7x----- 1.5x-6x- 1.5-6x
__________________________________________
res. 5x4 ---8x------ 7x------ 1.5x-6x- 1.5-6x
__________________________________________

These values were taken in the file cameras.cam from the different versions of TWoS and from version 1.2 vanilla with the Silent 3ditor v0.9.9 program.
In my "TWOS Binoculars with bearing by Torpedo v1" I've changed from 8x to 7x the zoom level of the binoculars because 8x seemed too big compared to that of the UZO, but it is only my personal opinion. In my "TWOS Binoculars without bearing by Torpedo v3" mod I did not change the zoom level of the binoculars which is 8x, the same that is in TWoS 2.1.0.
That's why excel4004 noticed a difference in the zoom factor of my two versions.
Tell me which zoom factor is the most common for the binoculars: 7x or 8x.
In reality I read that the Kriegsmarine had binoculars of different magnifications: 6x30, 8x30, 7x50 and others.
Please help me!

Tnx Torpedo

P.S. Sorry for the alignment of the table and the wrong value for binoculars in TWoS 2.0.0 which is 8x and not 7x and the OBS and the PERI which both have 1.5x-6x zoom

Hey Torp!

Are you sure about this?As far As I can remember, binoculars in TWoS always had 8x zoom factor.

I'll check older TWoS versions just to make sure although this is not really important for anything since binoculars aren't used for distance calculations anyway...
