At the risk of being a fool, was there any info on how to use the sextant? I thought I read everything, but maybe I missed something.
i don't use the sextant and i can't help you here.i included only for the fans of 'real navigation'(--not me),i don't even know if this 'style' of playing really worked ever .for info about the sextant and its use, you must search for the ''real nav mod'' but i can't remember right now the author of this mod.try a search...sure you will find it

hi makman94, i em newbie to sh3 .. so I am stuck on understanding interface & why, how it works ...
so can you pls point me to description of all tools that gui adds to default interface & how they work other than OLC video.. ? thats bcoz .. OLC vid still leaves me with doubts like how do i find range etc if i dont use manual targeting (no aob & range finder)..??
I have tried serarching & found many but nothing explaining gui tools? i am sure i em missing something silly here... but what it is?

Edit: nevermind, all resolved.. except for why part? with it i mean historical document for tools, if any that explains mechanism & usage in RL

Thanks for awesome GUI once again

hi markham

been trying to figure out how to use the AOB tool at attack periscope location. I thought if i used Karamazovenew little tutorial it would work w/ yours. I noticed that his AOB tool is very difftent from yours, it seems to have more tick marks & it has the green little chevrons at 45 degree angles. I noticed too that his is set for 6X & yours is for 15X.

My question is , do you have a tutorial on how to use your AOB tool?, or is Karamazovenew's tutorial adaptable to yours?

Great job
Same for other modder who made ACM/OLC GUI/etc but yours gui is my actually used

I have just a question Markham; why in various mod the attack periscope is often "smaller" than observation one? It's an historical "reality" or it's just to have space to place all the button and dials?

Bye

It's because attack periscope IS smaller, than observation one. Look at them from outside. They are designed for different purposes, that's the main reason why. Smaller, attack peri is more difficult to spot, or detect by radar. Observation peri gives wider angle of view, better visibility, orientation. But it's bigger size is the price.
