Hhmm? Rummy's DITHERS from his Green Acres mod, are all good for me. :?:
I think you applied one of his older Grass DITHER mods, over, and upon, that?

Hoot! I think I came close to Blindly Pinning The Tail On The Donkey!
I understand some of the German words, in pic above, but to calibrate these LW Temperature gauges sehr gut, I may need the help of a real German.

Do you still need to get this page translated? I could do it for you if you like.

da Held,

Only if you think my Emil temperature gauges do not indicate proper.
If so, and my calibrations seem false, any advise to make the Temperature gauges better, is welcome.

Some aircraft specification charts need little or no language interpretation. The numbers speak for themselves.

----

Then, again, I need to understand more German words. So little of them in my limited vocabulary!
If your are offering to translate this page, I would be a fool to turn down your offer.

Bitte,
Jeffrey


P.S.
Your saying Runter kommen sie alle...

I know kommen sie alle means "come you all"
Runter kommen sie alle... means "Around! come you all!" literally,
or "Rally about me!" :?:

I only had High School German, way back in 1972.. Forgive my American ignorance.

The saying "Runter kommen sie alle" means they'll all get down, eventually...

Now to the translation:

first line: ................ Lubricant temperature and pressure

table: .................... Temperature ...................................... at entry .................................. not exceeding

............................ for an elongated period ........................ 30° to 75° ........................................ 95°
............................ for a short time ...................................... 80° .......................................... 105°

2nd and 3rd lines: ...... pressure: at least 2.5 atmospheres (approx. 2.5 bar = 36.74 pound per square inch)
....................................... at the most 6 atmospheres

4th and 5th lines: ...... cooling-water temperature: near the ground at least 60° Celsius (Centigrade would be right as well)
........................... maximum temperature at height:

table: .................... Height in km ... 0 ... 2 ...
.................................. °C ...

6th and 7th lines: ..... fuel pressure: minimum 1.1 atmospheres
........................................... maximum 1.5 atmospheres

8th to 12th lines: ..... o. Fuel-supply measurement in flight
.......................... Supply-gauge at the instrument panel.
.......................... Faultless measurement only in horizontal attitude. Switch for the measuring system at the
.......................... switch panel on the right. After the residue warning light at the instrument panel illumines, there will be
.......................... fuel left for ten minutes of cruising flight.




I hope I could be helpful here. And, by the way, your gauges are beautiful!
And I think the gauges work properly.

Thanks for that, sir.
I never could get the Emil fuel & oil dual pressure gauge to work. Tried all kinds of experiments to get pointers to work.
I gave up on that one. :(

Stickman,
Just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU for all your mods posted here. Your new Title Screens are great and I interchange them quite often. I just installed your 2D Gauges with the EPI as well. I'm another virtual flyer that doesn't use Track-IR so the EPI indicator is a great help to my "SA" in Dogfights! I hope you are doing well in Hawaii (I'm here in sunny Florida and retired) and your life is good with your pets (as pictured). My wife and I have two cats inherited from my daughter (they both seem to tolerate us.)

BTW, I'm running a Dell 22" 1680x1050 monitor, and through trial and error I got the EPI indicator and compass aligned and positioned in the top left of my screen. If anyone else uses this size monitor here are the settings I used:

Enemy Position Indicator:

Screen Position x=9
Screen Position y=20
Gauge Width=40
Gauge Height=40


Rotation Compass:

Screen Position x=4
Screen Position y=12
Gauge Width=90
Gauge Height=100

They were just desperate to find fault, which ain't easy when it comes to your screenies, Stalk!

By the way, I finally resorted to just chopping off the top of my screenies. That seemed to work well enough in the galleries. It saved a lot of Photoshop time and reduced the file size considerably as well.

Thanks pal for the very kind words. If chopping those screenies off works then i say go for it. :)

No. Boreas might know. He has been modding the sounds a lot, and for some time. I saw a post recently about this, I think.
I just cannot say that I remember one.
