to blesd for sharing this formula.
Boomer
3.0 fix power this formular is similar to hook, it can be used when
the wind is against u 90-distance-wind*wind factor Distance is 50
degree per SD, and wind factor relates to philoburn's graph. its
the same as hook wind factors this is quite good when wind is big
so that u cant hook

Note from Creedo:
If this is unclear, I'll try to explain it a bit.
It helps if you already understand fixed power shooting and measuring.
Step
1. Estimate how far away the enemy is from you in parts, or angles.
1.0 screen distance = 50 parts.
1/2 screen distance = 25 parts.
Every 10 parts is 1/5th of a screen.
Let's
say you know for sure that a half screen distance is from the left
edge of your screen to the middle of the wind marker. You have an
enemy who is about 1/5th of a screen beyond that. If half a screen
is 25 parts, and the enemy is about 1/5th of a screen further than
that... you're adding 25+10 parts to get 35 parts.
Therefore the enemy is 35 parts/angles distance from you.
Step
2. Starting at 90 degrees, lower your angle by the number of parts
you estimated in step 1. So if the enemy is 35 parts away... 90-35
= 55. Use angle 55. Because this is a 3 bar formula, your shot will
be angle 55, 3 bars. But your math is not finished yet... the strength
and direction of the wind can really alter where your shot lands.
So you must do step 3 to adjust for the wind.
Step
3. You're going to lower your angle based on the wind's strength
and direction. To do that, take the wind's strength and multiply
(or divide) it by whatever wind factor matches the wind's current
direction. To see what wind factors you need for the different wind
directions, see this link below:

Let's say the
wind is blowing diagonally up and against you, and wind strength
is 12. The chart says to use wind/3. Dividing 9 by 3 gives us 4.
Therefore you want to take your current angle and lower it by 4.
If your original angle were 55, it's now 51. Rehashing our math:
The enemy is 1/5th of a screen more than half a screen away from
you. The wind strength is 12 pointing diagonal up/against.
We therefore use angle 51, 3.0 bars for such a situation. I hope
it was clear.
Tip
for experienced fixed-power users: If you already are familiar with
measuring your screen by dividing it into 30 parts, then doing this
formula with 50 parts isn't that difficult. I'll call the 30 part
method the cbchui system. Every 3 angles under the cbchui system
is 5 angles under the 50-part system. So an enemy who is 21 parts
away using your familiar cbchui measurement would be 35 parts away
using this 3 bar hooks. Just divide the cbchui measurement by 3,
then multiply the result by 5 to get the new measurement.
