[REL] Mav’s Periscope Optics Mod ver. 1.4

03-18-08, 10:35 AM

I made this mod back in ver. 1.2 and followed it up for 1.3. Then i had a bigger brake but is now back in town

I HOPE i did my homework correct, it is the best i could do without having a boat in the backyard, thus not being able to check it out vs. the neighbourhoods car pool....

Your praise warms my heart. A feelow modders praise is allways worth more then 1000 downloads!! THANKS

And to anyone who feels like using this in their future mod's - you are all VERY welcome - credits or not. Im only modding to make the game better, not for the credits. Remember that IF you credit me - i expect the mod to be implemented correct so i won't take your flack for it

Anyplace to download BetterScopes 1.3 or the newest version? Thanks
Nevermind, I just found 1.51

Be carefull - i have no idea if the size of the overlays have changed in BetterScopes 1.51!!

You can do a quick verification by carefully doing the Overlap system of Collimation test that i described in the first post.

It does not work with 1.51, It causes SHIV to lock up with the loading bar on the opening screen about 3/4 complete. Cycle them back out, and business as usual.

Ok THAT sounds strange. I can understand if it opens and gives a distorted image, but not that it crashes due to two other graphical images as background layer. What mods have you got installed now?
