Map Tools for GWX 1.03?

hocking · 07-09-07, 09:29 AM

I am always surprised when I install a new version of GWX to find there is absolutely no map tools included with the update. I then have to go try to find some map tools that are compatible with the latest version of GWX. Can anyone point me in the right direction for map-tool mods that are compatible with GWX 1.03? What I am really after is the reversed compass that is centered around my measurement/line tool, the compass that is centered around my course plotter, the transparent draggable namograph, the transparent draggable compass, and any other tools that are useable that I don't know about.

Is it possible to have these tools automatically included in future GWX updates? I noticed that many of these tools have been included in the latest Silent Hunter release from UBI. My guess is most people use these map tools like I do, but I am only guessing about this.

Those tools where already included in the SH3 official patch 1.4

so to use them in map just click the "'?" sign above right before using any tool: That will change your cursor to the tools you are looking for. Besides, in GWX you can see in the top-right corner a draggable circular compass. It just protrudes a bit in teh corner to leave a clear view, but it is there....just grab it with your mouse and drag it to where you want

I am using Jiim's NavMapTools v1.3 that contains some of the items you need...

Thanks for the links. I think I have everything now except for the transparent draggable Nanograph. Anyone know where I can get this from? I do a search in the forums for "Nanograph" and it doesn't bring up anything. I know there is one available somewhere. Thanks.

What's a nanograph ?

I know a NOMOgraph though.
Perhaps this will bring you more luck.

A Nanograph was a system developed about three years after the NomoGraph was first used. I prefer the NanoGraph over the Nomograph. There is also a Nano-Nomo Graph, which basically performs all of the functions in each graph simultaneously with the nanograph making measurements in Nanos, while the nomograph makes measurements in Nomos.

I guess I will just have to use the older style NomoGraph if that is all that is avaiable. Oh well.

This post is filled with nothing but nonsense. Don't beleive anything written within it, it is all lies.
