📋 About This Mod

What does Historical Sight Scope do?

1. Completely remakes all arcade/sniper sight variants 2. All in real historical appearance with simulated gun elevation mil-markers 3. Integrated reload timer, health percentage indicator, low HP indicator 4. Polished armor scheme with armament info 5. Brand new HUD Orientation Meter with field of fire marker (for TD). 6. Innovative and revolutionary Dynamic Arty Reticle - you will be amazed how it works, meanwhile need time to get use to it. Finally I have done something great for arty commanders! 7. Dynamic (animated) Staining Scope Lens - the optic comes with clean lens and becomes dirtier and dirtier during the battle. 8. Multigual Armor Scheme / Target Recognition (for now supports EN, RU, CZ, CN), no need of English Tank Name Mod anymore for those clients. 9. Detailed reloading animation 10. Includes ARCADE, SNIPER, STRATEGIC, GUN MARKER, DAMAGE INDICATOR 11. Multiple type variants of arcade indicator, central marker, dispersion indicator, gun marker can be changed separately 12. All variants can be tweaked in any combination in a customized Reticle Setting Menu anytime you want If you are a hardcore historical armor fanboy who is looking for some more immersion in this arcade-style game, don\'t miss it, you won\'t get disappointed!

FAQs

Q1: Font display problem, on Armor Scheme it shows squares instead of texts. A1: It uses Calibri font which is included by default in Win Vista and Win 7. If you come cross this issue, find and install Calibri font into your system. Q2: Stats of some vehicle in Armor Scheme doesn\'t displayed. A1: The Armor / Vehicle Recognition works only with English vehicle names. If you use non-English client, apply English Vehicle Name Mod to solve this problem. Since V5. 6, the vehicle locale file is already included by default. Q3: Armor stats are incorrect. A3: Please report any bug like this in this thread. Q4: Is that possible to show more info in Armor Scheme? Like what gun the target currently uses or so. A3: Nope. Technically it is not possible so far. I hope one day some one could figure it out not without violating the EULA. (Requesting data without permission from server side is illegal. - this is what it called HACK.) Q5: I don\'t like the reload animation at all. Please remove it. A5: It\'s simple, just adjust Load opacity to 0 in Settings - Reticle screen, see this image. Q6: Can you remove the Armor Scheme? It useless to me and quite annoying. A6: No plan to remove it. Q7: Can you move the Armor Scheme to the LEFT side? A7: According to Poll V5. 5, most people like it at the RIGHT side. Therefore there will be no LEFT sided variant in the near future. Q8: I want other optics. A8: Unfortunately there will be only max. 8 optic options due to the game setting constrains. I will make the best selections according to the forum pol
