'Kilo weapon loadout.'

Kirk:
''Anyone know what weapons go in what tubes in the Kilo Sub. I was playing around that that sub, which is pretty cool and noticed on the tubes that some of a "P" which I remember from the other subs that means program for a waypoint. And others have a "P" and "W". Anyone help me with this? Thanks.''

''Tubes 1-4 are standard tubes that are loaded from the "Main Rack". These can fire anything but wireguided weapons (TEST-71s, UUVs etc)
Tubes 5 and 6 are loaded from their respective racks (#5 Rack etc) and can launch any weapon and has wire guide capablity.

The P is for the tube's Presets screen (RTE, Depth, Speed etc) the W (on 5&6) is for the Wireguide screen for that tube.

NOTE: TEST-71s should only be loaded in the Tube 5&6 racks NOT THE MAIN RACK! They cannot be loaded from the main rack to tubes 5 and 6 (SCS Really should remove them from that part of the loadout screen or make them capable of fire and forget use ) Also the PLAN TEST-71s once enabled and locked on to a target cannot be pre-enabled and redirected to another target, they can only be shutdown or pre-enabled (which just prevents the weapon from exploding).''

''What happens if you do use them from 1-4 ?''

''Nothing, you can't load them in to tubes 1-4 so don't load them in the main rack.''

Just a word of thanks to Finiteless and Blackmuzzle for their excellent Sound Mods.

My experience with the 'whale on guitar' persuaded me to invest in a new soundcard and this coupled with
my existing headphones and the Mod proved a delight.

All afternoon yesterday my 'better' tried to lure me into the garden for some menial task -
I just kept murmuring 'I cant leave the whales right now !'

I think I caused some real concern.............................................................not for the first time !!

RECYCLE 13.

From CADC.
'Setting Gamma is a must do.'

TimmyG_00:

''Back in the old Sub Command days, Killerbuds and I were testing SCX detection ranges.
The way we discovered the gamma issue was that we were each driving a Seawolf, and although
I could see his NB lines, he could not see mine!

He took a screenshot of his NB screen... and I could see my NB line in his screenshot! So I surmised that
there must be a monitor or graphics setting that was affecting his ability to see my faint lines.
This was essential for inclusion in the TACMAN.

With Sub Command, it seemed that the Gamma setting at the graphics card level did affect the graphics
of SC in full-screen mode. I think that might be a function of which graphics card you have. I haven't toyed
around much with itRe: Setting Gamma is a must do. Get Tacman from Bills - included wth the DL is a bmp file
specificaly to enable you set up your monitor to show the very faint NB tonals.''

The Bellman:
''Timmys revelation in Tacman helped me to progress in the SW.
Spotting those faint NB traces early is vital.
His NB PC monitor check remains on my desktop and the gamma adjusted settings are saved in 'Display.'
I have an old NV 200 MX dinosaur of a graphics card but will look forward to the easy switchability, reported
by Furia, when I make an imminent upgrade'' **

Zephyr:
''So.., JoGary...,
any chance you can post a 'faint contact' screen shot here so we can play with our gamma to see what works
best for us?? (hint, hint..., nudge, nudge.., wink, wink...) ''

The Bellman:
''Get Tacman from Bills ***- included wth the DL is a bmp file specificaly to enable you set up your monitor
to show the very faint NB tonals.''

:sunny: Incidentaly TimmyG_OOs Tacman contains an excellent guide to TMA. \ IMO Tacman is the
definitive guide for new bubleheads. A huge thanks to him for everything he has done for our game. :sunny:

Confucius said: '' Find a good job and you will never have to work for a living !''

Have the Scots got an undeserved reputation for 'meanness' or should I say tightfistedness ?

So when two Scottish brothers won the Lottery, one said to the other ''What shall we do about begging
letters ?'' His brother replied ''Just keep writing them !''
