The MaGui mod - Final version

[sabretwo]

I got it after playing with it in Academy.

The S-mark wasn't visible in the tutorial videos.

Makman, thank you so much for adding the color filter (to the 'scopes)! I'm able to see a little better in the dark now.

hi Pisces,

in my opinion, there is no need for this complexity for finding the speed mark.
all ,someone, have to do is to see what is happening when rings are at their start positions.at this positions the 100 of outer ring (translated to target's length=100 m....=100/1852 nmiles) is matched with the 100 of inner ring (translated to 100 seconds...=100/3600 hours),
so target's speed(when rings are at their start positions) must be (100/1852)/(100/3600)=3600/1852=1.944 knots

so , we just put a scratch on outer ring(when rings are at their start positions) that is showing us the number 1.944 to the inner ring and thats it.

certainly (with a quick glance) you are absolutely right with the procedure there but ,as i said,imo there is no need for such complexity for this theme (speed mark)

a tiny point about the formula at the link : this formula is for creating the marks for x6 zoom ring (not for x1,5).
also, just for sharing,you can use a simplier formula for finding the marks on x6 ring (if we assume that starter zoom is x1,5),this one :

markabove90= 4 x arctan(mast/range) where range=(number on ring)x100

but whatever formula Joegrudman(the author of the tool) used ...the scales are indeed not 100% acurate done...they have some inaccuracies but not so critical to worth the effort for someone to sit down and correct them.it needs a lot (and i mean....a lot) of patience ,carefull and...time .if i was the creator i would had use the last (simplier) formula but that is what i would have done.maybe Joegrudman used the other one...i don't know.

Sabretwo, there is no ''s'' at this old version ,only the orange scratch....

Krashkart,....at the final version you will be able to choose between green,red and yellow filters for scopes and binoculars .BUT this will be done before game's launch and the filters will be permanetely installed on scopes

@Makman94: You are right. The formula is probably overkill. And on second thougt, not very helpfull. I just didn't know how deep Sabretwo was looking for an answer.

thats ok Pisces, your discovery that rings can 'show' the target's speed is always a great addition to this brilliant tool !

Just wanted to drop by and say THANK YOU for this great GUI mod! Especially the Widescreen version has become very useful for me since I am running at a 16:9 resolution (1920x1080). SH3 together with GWX and your mod makes a wonderful combination with a great overall atmosphere that I would not want do miss.
