[REL] Optic update for DarkWraith's New UIs

emtguf · 03-27-10, 04:01 PM

These updates are based off of Hitmans U-boat optic PDF he posted on these forums. I have complete redrawn the optics for the Attack Scope, OBS Scope, UZO, and Binoculars to better reflect the images he posted showing the true optics.

Copy folder to mods folder and install with JSGME

V 1.7 released

Version 1.7
Added tint to Attack scope to better come inline with Hitmans observations.
Added Color Filter to OBS scope
Added New Binoc graphic.
Small changes to cameras file

Download 1.7

This is made for aspect ration 5:8 if you are using Another aspect ratio please download the additional patch below for your aspect ratio and install after installing the base mod.
Patch for 4:3 and 5:4

Patch for 16:9

Attack Scope

OBS Scope

UZO

Binocs

Well made Emtguf. These look great. Thanks.

Very nice!

Hitman knows a lot more than I do, but it seems odd to me that the binoculars would have those markings and the UZO would not, since the UZO is just a special set of binoculars mounted into a frame.

I know what you mean but there's a PDF floating around that definately says that the UZO had a single vertical marking. I can't speak as to how the non-UZO binoculars should look.

That pdf has a picture of the recticule for the binoculars as well. Thats what I based mine off of.

Excuse me!. Where is the download link?

Sailor Steve · 03-27-10, 04:50 PM

He took it down to make a small fix. It's back now.

Emtguf can you add a colour filter?

Mainly to the attack scope which I'm sure others will agree.

emtguf · 03-27-10, 05:18 PM

Looking into doing that with the next update so yes, it is planned.

emtguf · 03-27-10, 04:49 PM

Ok issues all worked out and ready for download.

Einsman · 03-28-10, 11:57 AM

Very nice!!! Downloading...

Slowly going to look like a simulator. 5th installment of the Silent Hunter series and have not learned anything from Ubi Soft developers. It's a shame ...

Sorry for my English. In my language write better.

Since I've uninstalled SH5, I can't test this mod, however the screenshots hinted to me that something is wrong. I downloaded the mod, and looked around the files. And yes, something is definitely wrong.

Any optics image used in this game must behave like a background that stretches uniformly until the image reaches the sides of the screen. Please look at this tutorial:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=163118

In the page files I've seen that all new optic images have a zone that looks like this:

Zone= 0 896 1024 1024 1 1 0x26060000 0.5 -0.5 0x26000001 -0.5 0.5 0 0

That red "1" corresponds to a scaling mode of constantAspectRatioVertical.

You need to use constantAspectRatioHorizontal for any backgrounds and any optics. This isn't just for looks, as you can see from the pics, the horizontal marks don't correspond with the vertical marks. Your pics were made on a 16:10 resolution which, if I'm right, should induce a 1.2 (1.6/1.33) scaling error horizontally. And using a simple ruler, I saw that in your pics 10 marks vertical correspond to about 8.3 marks horizontal. 10/8.3=1.20....

emtguf · 03-28-10, 12:40 PM

The Pages files are a part of Darkwraiths mod so I have no modification to any of them (other than the binocular page). That being said the constant aspect ratio that you are seeing is the stock settings for those.

Also the marks are drawn further apart horizontal than they are vertical so that may be the difference you see in the screenshot.
