Why doesn't the SH3 Commander files for NYGM not have anything related to the 3rd flotilla? I've looked through the cfg files and 3rd flotilla isn't in there. And I can't pick it.

Never mind. Fixed it.

However the ships dont appear hull down, they kind of float above the horizon, i noticed that the earth radius value in the main mod is 640000 which i guess is fine since it's double the value of the vanilla SH3 ( a 16 km vs a 8 km environment ).
Now, the NYGM3_New mod modifies the scene.dat and Earth Radius value is now 9999999 - a kind of flat disc for us .
Now, if i change it back to 640000, ships will appear hull down which is something i like ; if anybody knows : are there other implications also for changing that value or only affects how we perceive objects on the horizon?
Your statement about the error in NYGM3_New is correct - well observed.
If you change EarthRadius parameter back to 640000 in scene.dat, it restores the hull-down aspect as it was previously. I don't think that there will be any other consequences.

I've sent you a PM concerning another idea that you had about the EarthRadius.

No demand, is the short and simple answer. Until now.
