[REL] TDC (with working dials) for SH5

briklebritt · 03-12-10, 05:07 PM

should be changed like this:

BearingGauge:

Can be found in my TGA which i posted here minutes ago

AngleOnBow

TrackAngle

this dial shows the expected angle at which the torpedo will hit against the target

@TheDarkWraith
You only have to change the background for AngleOnBow and TrackAngle
And
You have to bring a new background in DDS-File from my TGA, the bearing, shown above

If u want, i can do it for you and change the DDS-File. Let me know

Not sure what you're getting at either.

Those dials are the same as they were in SH3.

Yeah, and they were wrong in SH3 as you will see when you look at Hitman's link on the previous page.

Ahah!!

I just looked at hitman's post.. VERY interesting, and it makes sense.

Though i dont think you could just change the graphic on the gyro indicator, because i dont think the needle is showing track angle.

So the only thing to do is switching dial bitmaps/tgas or whatever they are.

Oh, and I think I made a mistake in my photoshoped picture. Tracking angle would be an extra dial and should not replace the second from the right. I'm not sure about them, but the left ones are correct.

@TheDarkWraith

I made it for u... u only have to change one thing (shown with markers in pic)
This was a fast try - if something is wrong or not perfect, let me know and i will change

NOW HERE Are THE RIGHT TDC DIALS

these are the new ones..download it here, rename (delete "_new") and replace it or add it to your mod

1.)

DOWNLOAD DDS here (right mouse and save as):
http://www.real-one.de/SH5/TDC_metric_new.dds

2.)

DOWNLOAD DDS here (right mouse and save as):
http://www.real-one.de/SH5/TDC1_new.dds

And then correct this in menu manager:

PS: I have made some glas effect on TDCgauges

If the grafics are not perfect, i will update.. i didn´t try it in SH5

H.B. can you check this?
Just for be sure.

And Hitman if you read this.

@TheDarkWraith

here is the translation:

"Gegnerfahrt" = "Speed"
"Entfernung" = "Range"
"Zielrichtung" = "Bearing"
"Lagenwinkel" = "Angle on Bow"
"Tiefe" = "Depth"
"Pistole" = "Pistol"
"Rohrauswahl" = "Tubes selection"
"Streuwinkel" = "Spread angle"
"Schusswinkel" = "Gyroangel"
"Geschwindigkeit" = "Speed"

Do u need a DDS-file for tdc-cover? i could do

H.B. · 03-12-10, 06:25 PM

I'm too confused right know. But at the moment I think Hitman's link was wrong, because target bearing and torpedo bearing were misunderstood.

Just by logical thinking I would return to what I said first:

only angle of bow and bearing dial were flipped:
The green/red dial background with "Bug links/rechts" is for angle of bow.
The green/red dial background without text is for bearing.
The black ones on the right (gyro) indicate the bearing of your torpedo when fired and are correct.

So it should like this:

But I'm not sure about it!

briklebritt · 03-12-10, 06:31 PM

hm.. if u are right, my work is not correct - don´t know!

I'll wait until we get firm confirmation before making any radical changes. I'll leave it the way I had it for know until then.

TheDarkWraith · 03-12-10, 05:21 PM

well then can someone make a new .dds file that has the correct graphics for the dials on it?

I think this will be great!!!

TheDarkWraith · 03-12-10, 05:26 PM

okay so I need to get this straight. The dials work correctly right? But the AOB dial should register in tenths like the bearing dial and the bearing dial should register only in full degrees like the AOB? If the functionality is wrong then my dials are wrong and will need to be corrected.
And the dial in the gyroangle box just has an incorrect background?

All your dials are working properly and are labeled right! They just use the wrong background graphics. With the ones on the right (gyro) I'm not sure. I think you shouldn't change them. Tracking angle would be a completely new display I think. So the only thing to do is changing the background bitmaps like this (angle on bow in 0 -180 and "Bug links/rechts" text, bearing in 0 - 360 in black):
