C_DOES put up a new video on the Elcan Specter 1.5/6x42:
And I imagine by now, well... You might know me:
This reticle is an expansion and refinement of
the reticle in the Specter DR 1-4x. Many similar features, and a few extras.
I drew this to scale correctly at 9x magnification in the SFOD mod. It's optimized for the ammo.def entry for the M21 (velocity 767, drag 0.46, which, according to my notes, is optimized for the Trijicon TA648 reticle I had on it before. I'll probably change it back to more authentic M21 values later). Not coincidently, I mounted it on the M21, and edited the magnification to adjust between 2x and 9x, which is comparatively equal in scale as 1.5x to 6x. I shut off the HUD for the screenshot 'cause the distance, elevation, and magnification elements cover the caliber label. I edited the weapon.def to zero this at 100m, and left the elevation adjustable out to 1000m 'cause some players might appreciate the option.
Playtesting has been fun, and it functions well.
Edit: Edited the AMMO_M21_HPBT to velocity 853, drag 0.435, and repositioned the drops in the targa to fit. I got the velocity value from Wikipedia, and I got the drag value from some experiment or another. I'm not updating the screenshot 'cause the drops are just tighter now, it doesn't look much different.
I think the velocity 767, drag 0.46 was an experiment with the TA648 reticle. I drew it strictly according to the blueprints from the Trijicon site, and I edited the ammo velocity and drag to fit it, to a closer extent. I'm pretty sure I slowed the velocity 'til the 300m drop on the TA648 was correct, tweaked the drag 'til the 1000m drop was correct, and kept going back and forth 'til both the 300m and the 1000m were good, then repositioned the other drops. I probably got the 0.435 drag from experiments on the Trijicon ACOG 3.5x35 .308 crosshair reticle. I'm unsure.
