Nope doors are always open first, so i know that wasnt it. As for the scope i usally only keep it up 15 secs at a time, for the reason. But thank you for the input. like i said i think it has to do with him calling out the degree himself always being 1 degree different then when i hit the Z key. because after 4 times of that im 4 degrees different with my map work.

4 degrees may be the reason its happening.

a simple solution might be to just target the bow and that should put you at midship

also are you still off the same amount when firing the stern tubes?

hmm not sure about the stern tube. Dont think i have ever tried shooting one of those. I know i just did the travelly tutorial on 4 bearing all over again to see if i was doing something wrong. Other then my lines not being the same as his.

Im wandering could all this be caused because i am using the mano scope mod 16:9 when in fact my resalution is 1440x900, which i believe is actully 16:10. Could that cause all my problems?

Im going to uninstall that scope mod and give it try and see

It very well could be. If you're using my UIs mod I have patches that will calibrate the scope to your display.

i am using yours but none of the scopes that come with yours come with a 16:10 ratio, they all only have 16:9 ratio.

The scopes that comes with TDW has for sure 16:10 ratio
just do the math 16/10 = 1.6 = 1440/900 = 1.6 = 8/5 = 1.6 so just use the 8x5 Manus Scopes. I'm playing with those on 1440x900 in windwed mode without having any issues

Thank you, i was just coming back to post an edit to my last LOL. After doing a search i found how you get the 1.6 thing. never new that before, so i am off to put in the 8x5 ratio one.

Thanks again all..

By the way TDW do you know what might be causing the other issue of the sonar man saying on his own the contact info of say 330 degrees but if i hit the Z key at the same time or just after it will always tell me 1 degree different. so it would show 331 degrees.
