looks great. To bad its not widescreen

Interesting GUI but why not 1920x1080? Who plays on lower resolution these days?

[AirShark]

i guess im one of the few poor people who still play on this resolution. even if i buy a 1080p monitor my gtx1050 wont handle it. but if i managed an upgrade in the upcoming years i will upscale this.

[lederhosen]

That would be great because it really looks good

Nice work regardless

Awesome work!

Looks very well but...can you adapt it for 1920x1080? It seems this is the standard for SH3 in these times

Many thanks for the work!

Nice work! I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few enthusiasts of Magui give this a try. Well done.

-fixed torpdeo dials and salvo selectors were in wrong color.

binocular with plastic cover, i guess it looks better during winter patrols

Nice work AirShark! I like the dark approach. The meters do not blind you by overwhelming light. Great!

looks really good.
I use Manos for the lower rez. anything higher and I can't make out torp depth or speeds and map tools...forget it! Even with the lower rez I cant pick out map coordinance during night time.

This looks to be much easer on the eye's
Thank you.
