#2. Is there any way to ZOOM on the Mobo board? For example when trying to determine the scale-the MOBO readout is always blending in with the dark part of the scale and I can't read it.

#3. When I try to do the scale-going by the manual-I create a node over the 0.0-then I create a node over the 1.0 (or whatever the division is)-then I right click and hit "connect" and instad of connecting the 2 nodes-it draws a line to ownship.

What am I doing wrong in the sequence?

No problem... lotsa folks here glad to help!
Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy to use.


1) Take a look at my two suggestions in the Top Performance thread.

2) I have not created a zoom feature in MoBo, however if you are having trouble seeing certain mobo graphics overlayed on darker in-game nav maps, you can go into the Options on MoBo and change the color of the graphics so you can see them better.

3) After you create the two nodes, right-click the one to the right and select Connect. When you do this, your cursor will look different (it says connect) and then you move your cursor over the other node and left-click to connect to it.

Thanks for the help!
I've got the connect and Scale OK-but I still can't ALT-TAB out without a SH4 error crash-even after changing the options you suggested. Maybe it's something with my computer.

What's your system specs?

I can run it fine with AMD64 FX55, 2gigs ram and nVid 6800 ultra GPU...

Typically it's a memory page file issue when people have trouble tabbing between apps. Also maybe try setting SH for windowed mode?
