...from Nav Map tools v1.3...directly from the install directory of the english 'Seawolves' installation folder:

----

Nav Map tools v1.3 (SH3)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I highly recommend use with Jase's "360 Degree Bearing Plotter for Navigation Map".

v1.3:
- Corrected a stupid error in the compass.
- Added original files for uninstallation (SH3 v1.2 mouse.cfg and cursors)

v1.2:
- SH3 v1.2 patch compatible
- Changes to cursors:
new official protractor > normal protractor cursor (top:0, bottom:180)
ruler > reversed simple protractor cursor (top:180, bottom:0)
waypoint plotting tool > reversed compass cursor (top:south, bottom:north)
- Made markings slightly more clear.
- Since the protractor tool was added officially, I made "only with crosshairs" versions for all cursors. These are in folder named "Option/CrosshairOnly".

v1.1:
- 3 types of protractors (ruler cursors). Now you can select which to use from:
Reversed(top:180, bottom:0, default) / Normal(top:0, bottom:180) / Old version(v1.0).
- Remade the compass for waypoint tool.
- Small errors in mouse.cfg were corrected.
- Readme

v1.0:
- Added the protractor mouse cursor to the ruler.
- Added directional markings to the waypoint tool.
- Added cross hairs to other map tools (pencil, compass, eraser). You can pinpoint the exact location/object now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why the markings on cursors of ruler/compass are inverted:
To tell you angles of the line which you are drawing (north = 0). Click your ship, extend a line, then read the markings. If you get confused about this, use the normal one in "Option-Ruler".

Installation:
- Move Mouse.cfg and all TGAs into /SilentHunterIII/data/menu/MouseCurs.
- If you wanna use the protractor with normal markings (top:0, bottom:180), move line.tga from the folder "Option-Ruler" to above mentioned place.
- If you think the big protractor cursors are no longer useful, use files in "Option/CrosshairOnly". These are the stock cursors with crosshairs.

Uninstallation:
- Original SH3 v1.2 files are in folder named "Backup".

Credits:
(in v1.0) I've used Chris L Peterson's compass image onto the cursor of waypoint tool with his permission. Thank you!
