ok, standby...

This is how the mod is installed, last in my list...

Large Optics for TDW UI
Large Optics for TDW UI 8 by 5
Large Optics for TDW UI Darkened Scopes Alt Attack Scope

...and this is what I got...

Sorry to assign the issue to your mod, it's a good work and is happy to use.

No worries. With big mod compilations there's almost always some kind of issue showing up now and then Glad you like the mod!

My question is simple, can you make RAOBF wheel just a littlebit smaller without changing periscope size so that everything of previous functionality could be preserved?

I see. I didn't think that would be that big of an issue, since I myself don't ever get down to a notch precision and I still could see the marks for 80-120 meters just fine (not the numbers, just the marks themselves). But I really shouldn't put my own perceptions before mod's usability now, should I? I'll see what I can do.

A-ha, this is with NewUIs 7.5.0, correct? It's gotta be an incompatibility in the ini files. I'll look into it later today, haven't even downloaded 7.5.0 yet.

Exelent...And you're right, no need for numbers but it would be nice if RAOBF could be just a little bit smaller so we could see those marks clearly...

Exactly, 7.5.0!. I can upload ini file for you if you like...

[radcapricorn]

This is a bit concerning. I've just downloaded 7.5.0 Test Version 5 and all relevant ini files are identical between 7.5.0 and 7.4.2, and when I install Large Optics over 7.5.0 all stations change correctly.

This means that somehow on your install either Data/Menu/Pages/Page UZO.ini or Data/Menu/Gui/Layout/TBT_1024.dds wasn't overwritten when you installed Large Optics (or maybe both weren't?). I can't think of any reason for this... Well, I can think of one, but you're not running SH5 on Linux through Wine, are you?

Can you upload both of those files somewhere so I could take a look at them? Preferably in two states: before and after installing Large Optics.

[vdr1981]

I use test version 12, the last one... Do you want to check this first?

[radcapricorn]

I very much do, but can you post a link to where I can download it? I found a link for Test Version 5 here on subsim in the Downloads section, and I don't see Test Version 12 there.

But , this is from 7.5.0 v12 uzo.ini file... It's probably the same files...

If this is any help , I get the tilted camera view if I click on the cook in the galley as well .

Excellent work! Thank you very much!
Two question: how to make Binoculars less and how to make this?

OK! I'm at snorkel depth and choose the chief engineer and tell him to extend the snorkel and "snorkel unavailable"!!!!
Why's that????!

Maybe because it's ..."unavailable"...
Really, what snorkel has to do with "large optics"?

[vdr1981]

And here's one more optional mod for Large Optics...
From readme:
This fix will slightly reduce size of the ROABF wheel just enough to fit periscope view. It also adds precision marks to RAOBF wheel.

Matched RAOBF marks size with those from Attack/obs scope. Now angle measurements with both scales will work correctly.

Install with JSGME anywhere after

For some reason the UZO stays stock looking. Other mods failed to change it except Fifi's. The bearing was impossible to read unless it's night time.
