[WIP] Brass compass and TBT glass

Harmsway! · 10-26-13, 06:39 PM

As you can see the mod adds hi-res glass to the TBT binocular. Also wanted an easier to read compass. Ended up with creating one with a brass dial. It is a nice complement to vickers03 hi-res_binoculars mod and if desired can be used along with it.

Good idea!

Would you consider tilting it up like the engine telegraph display, and adding a index mark so you can read it precisely?

(The difficulty in reading, or ordering, precise courses/depths/whatever, has always been a pet peeve of mine)

I have wanted an outside bearing ring but hadn't figured out how to add it. I will try to place an index mark though. No go on the tilt. Sorry.

To tilt it you have to rotate the node in each ships conning tower dat file.
