when i know that mogami is doing 10 knts.

I'm getting the exact same thing, using DAILS TO PK FIX-RFB as well, so you're not alone.

Nicolas is in Guatemala. How his boat ended up there is beyond me. I suggest you send him a private message.

Hi piggy yeah its weird,allthough im doing my career right now,and i just fired 4 shots on the port side of a raked bow split freighter,from about 1800 out and they all struck on target,unfortunately they were all duds

Yeah I tried my career out last night, however in two hours of playing I only came across 1 ship, crappy patrol area. However the good news is it worked, I had calculated the speed manually using the 3 minute rule and also using the method described here, both came up with 12 knots!

I can only assume its the short amount of time you get to track the target in the training mission. Longer periods to get bearing/range seem to provide a more accurate plot. Makes sense of course. This little tool/mod had really made the game a lot more fun.

I tried getting this mod, I have 1.4. The Target AOB indicator in the position keeper window (right panel) doesn't change when I rotate the AOB dial (left dial). It stays pointed straight down. Everything else works fine, though. I don't know what to do.

Hmm. A profhet asking a question? Seems strange. We should be asking you to profhesize!

Make sure you have the correct mod for your game. Do you have SH4 1.5? you should be able to load several versions of the mod and one should function properly. Keep the PK off.

I have 1.4. Is there a version for it?

Nicolas came up with the Easy AoB mod for AoB only. Here is the original JGSME version. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SBN3NQ0D. Then ddgrn modified the original by including speed and range adaptations. His download is for SH4 1.5 (U-Boat missions), TMO, RFB, and GFO. It also works in FOTRS. The links to ddgrn's downloads are in the Easy AoB sticky in the mods forum.

If you are playing version 1.4, I recommend you download the U-Boat missions, so you can use ddgrn's adaptations. It costs about $10.

I do not know if the original Easy AoB mod and ddgrn's adaptations will work in SH4 1.4, as that version is out of date somewhat.

If you have problems send a private message to ddgrn and Nicolas. They collaborated to create a teriffic mod.

I see you are a fairly new skipper. Welcome aboard if that is the case.
