TheDarkWraith: It would be possible to give this radio messages trafic
mod as stand-alone mod? I use Reaper´s UI mod, but I use all yours famous others mod as FX, IRAI etc. Radio messages trafic mod for SH5 is great idea and looks really beautiful!
PLEASE!

cheers
In that situation I would take the average of both readings and use that. That's just an educated guess on my part though. Maybe the included RAOBF documentation in \Documentation says something about this?

Trevally sent me revised graticules for the RAOBF tool. I'm going to let you be able to choose the graticule color (like the new scope filter and crosshair highlights) so I've got a little more work to do on v6.3.0 before I can release it.

that is, when the ship away you are relying on x6, when the ship is close to you counting on the x 1.5, the speed is the same. all

Added the ability to change the RAOBF graticule's color on the fly:


All I have left to do is update Arclight's MRP mod's camera files for v6.3.0

I have found that the best practice is to only use the mesurment from the center of the ship to the bow of the ship. The logic here is you are working on geting the angle on the bow so the TDC can calculate the lead angle on your target so mesuring the angle on the ship from mid to stern realy won't help you any, and in fact could give you a backwords lead angle on target if you are not cairful.

In short if your target is traveling from the left to the right in your scope only take the reading on the right side of the verticle line for the AOB and obviosly the oposite it true if the target is traveling from right to left. if the measurment isn't the same from mid to bow and mid to stern all it means is that you are not close to 90deg AOB.

I just got done screwing around with that patch for v6.2.0 and moments later this.

Downloading now.

The past hour with v6.2.0 has been my first experience with your UI mod. I was staying away from it because there were things and didn't want that I thought would be force on me if I installed it. But man I was shock to see how customizable it is. Outstanding!

Do I use the tool for keeping my options before installing the new version or dose it matter?

I would unless you want to manually edit that beast by hand again. I would extract the new version to desktop then run the options migrater to update the new version's options file from the old version.

Hi, I have the same problem using UI 6.3 than Silent Steel had!

Quote:
1. Launch SH5 it loads and synchronizies alright
2. When I get to the first menu there is this window over it showing options for saving new entries etc.
3. I've tried pressing "Yes"/"No"/"Cancel" with the same result - this window doesn't close.
I have never saved a log before, I tried creating a Log folder myself but it didn't help (don't know if i did it right). I went to desktop to see if there is some dialog box asking something but there wasn't. When I uninstalled the mod, everything was fine again. So could you Silent Steel please tell how did you manage to solve the problem? Or anyone else?

you can change the color and opacity of the scope's filter, crosshair highlight, and RAOBF graticules. Are you not able to do this?
