Default Easy Help

So, I've jumped in to SH5 and installed Sober's Mega Mod...

One thing I cannot figure out is... how do I change my zoom on my attack scope. Tab does nothing, apparently. I don't see a zoom button. What is the key or button to change it from 1.5 to a zoom of 6?

Thanks in advance.

I think I heard (or read) somebody say that you should turn the mouse wheel to zoom in and zoom out.

Default Increase the mag

Yes, use your mouse wheel. If you have Stormy's sound mod you will hear a click as you increase or decrease the magnification.

Hope this helps.

Yes this helps greatly. It was pretty frustrating, I think I hit most every button on the keyboard. I love how the keyboard help doesn't even show all of the buttons. For example: B = Binoculars. I don't think any of the other silent hunter games used the mouse wheel... Now, I've also learned how to turn the hydrophones when listening (same deal) and a couple of other things as well. This is also how the direction of the boat can be adjusted while hovering over the heading bar.

or if using TDW UI you can click on the red square in the middle of the heading bar to bring up the compass . There is even a mod to zoom the compass out while moused over click on the compass to change your heading click on the little dot beside the heading bar to hide the heading bar
