If i want headache, i hit with my head to a wall.

The automatic is a joke. 4 Torpedos and all missed. And this at 900 meters distance.

Bad bad.

I want the olc/magui back

I really dont understand the targetting system at all, and the manual is useless- how on earth does one find out?

I for one at least want an indicator that tell the torpedo's gyro angle.

And sombody please port Magui's SH3 GUI over to SH5

!!!

Baby steps, baby steps.

I am glad it is not too easy, just wish I knew how it works!

gimpy117 · 03-09-10, 04:38 PM

well and the stademeter is completely messed up...where do i take range from? oh i dunno lets play enny meeny miny moe to find out!

one destroyer i use the mast (which i cant see too well anyways because its very hard to see with the current system) and get an estimated speed of 9 knots (which was wrong anyways) and the next i use the same point and get a speed of 79 knots

And it is possible to increase the numbers 1-2-3 in place to make 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 ????

Webster you can still point and shoot,just tell the weapon officer to turn the TDC OFF

Do I understand it correctly?
So when I choose manual targeting from the options and then turn off TDC I get sh3/sh4 style auto targeting where i point and torpedo (magicaly) hits the ship where my periscope points? And when I turn manual targeting off from the options and turn off TDC I get this stupid connect the dots minigame?

Edit: I tried switching to manual targeting and I still get connect the points auto targeting, so what did you mean?

As soon as you tell the weapon officer to turn off the tdc lock on the target and u will see those realistic icons,the red yellow and green triangles on the periscope,just fire away
