From that point on it's approximations by the pilot: double the wingspan for a twin engined bomber so that when wings touch the bars it should be about 2X meters away, and so on.

Eklund comes to our rescue with a nice little visual guide as to how we should understand the German sight:



I didn't look too much into the German sight, though, so I cannot confirm this myself. And isn't there anything at all we can do to adjust the bars in that sight?

[robtek]

There is no need to adjust,

A german soldier with a technical manual and a order can do anything!!!

Why make it complicated?

[JG53Frankyboy]

IIRC the ring ist set that a plane with 10m wingspan is 100m away... ?
If this fit the game, i also dont know..........

and the german one was not adjustable like the english one.

Hi guys. The count is simple. (Size of object) X (How many times does he fit into the circle) x 10= it grants the distance of the object. Later, they put 1° marks onto the Revi, because of the facilitate of the counting.

You need this book. Here in detail, and more things are written: Horrido - Des Jagers Schiessfibel (GER). This is the original, german book.

I did not find English translation on the internet (with the Hungarian i guess you can't do nothing ). Many Years ago, I downloaded an English translate from the www.mission4today.com, which TX-Gunslinger wrote in 2004. I did not find the link of this, but I put the file on our side, from here you may download it: Horrido - Des Jagers Schiessfibel (ENG) - TX-Gunslinger

Of cousre, all of this work in the game.

Very nice work. Clever. You must have already shared this information, but what realism settings are you on as well as video settings? The land details are sharp and the video is very smooth.
Thanks.

[Freycinet]

All realism is on high, except cockpit always on, because I like to do the fly-by views.

I believe I have video settings all on high, but sorry, I don't remember to well.

Nice vid

[Trumper]

Nice video ,how much of it is "straight from the box " so to speak,is this a basic ingame recording.

[Freycinet]

Trumper, I just have the video capture running while I play the mission and then I upload the capture to youtube with no editing whatsoever. Then later I add the annotations (which you can turn off in youtube if you want).
