hello FI=Ghost,

disable olc's gui and in there,

open the menu_ini and at the bottom of the page copy and paste this:

then find the last entry of [G3F I---] that was in your menu_ini and continue the counting with the xxx

now open dials.cfg (it is located at data/menu/cfg/) and at the bottom of page copy and paste this :

[Dialxx]
Name=CompassFdbk
Type=12; DIAL_GYROCOMPASS
Cmd=Set_course,Crew
Dial=0x3F010022
CrtVal=0x3F010026
NewVal=0x3F010025
DialVal=-180,180
RealVal=-180,180; degrees
Circular=Yes
Dynamic=Yes

again make xx to continue the counting AND go to the UPPER line of page and add 1 to
[DIALS]
DialsNo= (if it is 74....make it 75 )

before you try all these backup first the original files(in case that something goes wrong)

enable olc's gui and you are ready to go

bye

Thank you very much Makman94, I'll try it out as soon as possible.

=FI=Ghost · 06-01-09, 06:25 AM

It's ALIVE, it's ALIVE!!!

Hehe, what I mean is - it works!!! Thank you so much Makman94, I really appreciate it!!

Ok I disabled EDE last night and it only improved a small bit. Today it is doing much better, but still a little slower than before(16KM).

Not to put too fine a point on it: I'm not sure I believe you!

What are your AA/AF settings?

Can you demonstrate the problem with before & after screenshots (showing CTRL-F8 framerates)?

Reducing the particle density in the options screen might also help a bit. But do that after you have that EDE thing solved with OLCs advice.

What an awesome mod! This has finally made me take the plunge to using manual targeting without taking advantage of the solutions of the magic weapons officer. I've learned how to use the range/aob finder even though I'm still not very fast at using it. Gotta learn the attack disk now as well.

The only thing I'm missing with this mod is the wooden stop watch that was in vanilla GWX. Is it possible to get this back without screwing everything up?

Edit: Wild night in Bangkok? Oh no! The day I feared has finally come...

onelifecrisis · 06-03-09, 12:39 PM

Well I am back from Italy now. I must say it's absolutely beautiful there! And they really know how to make coffee. Lots of coffee. Unfortunately I now seem to be in caffeine withdrawal and my the cup of tea in my hand has about as much "kick" as glass of water.

You can DIY. I and others have explained how in the past, but I just did a forum search and couldn't find the posts, sorry. Anyone else know where they are?

Darkseed · 06-03-09, 02:19 PM

Hm, I'm not very tech savvy though. I'd probably just break something.

Why did you remove it anyway? It's not like it's in the way or anything since you can just move it offscreen if you don't like it. I think it's a great deal more immersive than the chronometer in your mod. Don't get me wrong, yours is very useful but for looking at when my eels will hit I prefer the simple wooden one.

tomfon · 06-03-09, 02:32 PM

@Darkseed and/or anyone else intersted.

I think this is it. The first post should suffice but read the whole thread anyway.

@OLC
Greetings mate.

Italy uh? Nice. I've never been there yet. I've tried England and hopefully this year i'll go to France and not just for a few days. We'll see.

P.S. Could you please check what i've posted above. I hope it will help those interested to the dragable stopwatch issue.

Edit: I've just looked at Mikhay's single post and as far as i know his instructions should work fine. I've never tried this myself so please have a look OLC. Thanks.

Darkseed · 06-03-09, 02:45 PM

Thanks mate! That post says GWX 2 or 2.1 but I take it that it'll work with GWX3 as well, right?

Now let's see if I can do it without breaking something.

tomfon · 06-03-09, 03:04 PM

Yeah, it should be fine with GWX3 too. Give it a try.

Paris is awesome!

I know that's not a very "original" recommendation but there's a reason - many reasons, actually - why Paris is so famous. One thing I'll say is that if you do ever go there then try to learn some basic French! The Parisians seem to hate it when people speak English, but if you try to speak French they'll warm to you even if you screw it up. Or maybe they just like to see Englishmen looking like idiots.

Any Parisians reading this? Where's Alex when I need him?

Er, I had a glance at it. Yeah it's probably fine.

Alex · 06-03-09, 08:31 PM

Here I am !

Honestly ?
I can't say whether that's true or not. Went to Paris only half a dozen times in my life, when some members of my family were living there... The only thing I can say for sure about parisian people, is that they got their own way of life. For them, there's Paris, and the rest of the world.

I'm not going to say they're racist against us people living in the provinces, but one thing is sure, some (most ?) of them are full of themselves and do not appreciate us at all.

And we provincial people, give as good as we get : we do not like them either.

DivingDuck told me he was quite surprised when he came in France and realised very few people were speaking english fluently.

In my opinion, the reason why you had to try to speak french is that there's simply still not as much english speakers as needed among the population to give informations to tourists.
