I've applied to get this put on the downloads list but there's been a deafening silence so far
I've put it on megaupload, not sure of the restrictions between too many people downloading it etc etc.
Can someone please test this for me and give me feedback.
BUT FIRST READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW BEFORE INSTALLING AND RUNNING
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1R20TIHO
Prerequisites:
- This is an excel file that requires Excel 2003 or later.
- JSGME.exe (mod enabler)
- This only works for the Type IX sub
- Knowledge of where your SH4 installation directory is...preferably C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific
- You must have a "MODS" folder in your main game directory
How this calculator works
This calculator allows you to change (using excel) the torpedoes that the sub can store on board before going to sea. You then press a button that creates a new configuration file containing those torpedo settings into a mods subfolder. Using JSGME, you then enable this file to be used by SHIV and bingo. The next time your TYPE IX goes to see it could be with a full set of type 11 homing fishes !!!
Instructions (read this first!!!!)- Unzip this file directly into your MODS folder. When done it should contain a folder called "Custom torpedoes IXD", (ensure that winzip has not created another folder inside this one with the same name!)
- Go to excel file and copy it to whereever you want...desktop is good for me.
- Ensure you haven't loaded this mod in JSGME!!!
- Disable the schnorkel mod if you have it enabled.
- Run excel file.
- Go to the second tab marked "IXD Loadout"
- Follow instructions.
- Exit excel (you can save if you wish but its not necessary)
- Run JSGME
- Enable "Custom torpedoes IXD" THEN Enable Schnorkel mod if you have it
Please note this is still a work in progress and hasn't been tested outside my PC. Please use at own risk!!
