Destroyer Command

Destroyer Command v1.1 Patch - upgrades DC to allow multiplay with SH2

DC Sound Mod - This pack adds whistles and sirens to the General Quarters command, shells falling, gunfire, and other sound effects.

Admiral Brett's DC Sound mod - new general quarters for destroyer command AND a secure from general quarters. It includes a much better crackling voice sounding like it's coming over the ship's squawk announcing general quarters and a better klaxon. And securing from general quarters gives you the whistle.

 

ABDA command DC Mission Pack - Early in 1942 Allied commanders decided to form a unified command structure for combining allied resistance efforts in the south west pacific. The command was called ABDA (for American-British-Dutch-Australian). The short life of ABDA ended when Dutch general Helferich had to surrender to Japan after the invasion of Java. In the meantime, however, several surface engagements under ABDA command took place with the 'Battle of Java Sea' as the most prominent one. All in all, it can be said, that the ABDA campaign was a disaster. The Allies lost nearly their complete fleet in the south west pacific without being able to inflict any substantial damage to the Japanese. The greatest loss to the Japanese occured when a Japanese cruiser fired a spread of torpedos against the Houston, which all missed but sank 4 Japanese transports instead. There are many reasons for the failure: Poor communication between the different ABDA nationalities, poor communication between ABDAfloat and ABDAir, Japanese air supermacy, the superior Japanese weapon technology at this time and the poor morale of the ABDA troups which knew that they were in a hopeless position. By Timm Baumeister

This setup will update any previous version of Sub Command to 1.08)

Installation: Double-click(Run) the self-extracting patch executable. Verify and correct the extract path if it is not correct. Click the Unzip button.

Modifications for Build 1.08

 Broadband: Fixed crash if a tracker was assigned to the Hull array in Narrowband and then the user switched to Broadband on subs without Hull array (ssn21, 688i).
-  Sound: Cleaned up various sound card related issues
-  Sound: Fixed the platform sound distortion that occurred when panning around a hooked platform in the 3D window.
-  Sound: The Options/Sound screen now displays an error message if Sub Command detects the absence of hardware 3D sound support in the sound card.

   1) "Attempt to detect 3D Hardware Sound Buffers failed."
   2) "Attempt to support 3D Sound in hardware failed."
   If either message appears, the problem may be the sound card does not have support for hardware-only 3D sound.
   If the sound card does have hardware 3D sound support, then verify that the sound card drivers are up to date.
   Sub Command will default to software-only 3D sound in either case and overall game performance may degrade as a result.
-  Fire Control: Fixed UUV not correctly using OS Depth preset
-  Fire Control: Fixed Narrow/Wide preset issue
- TMA:  Tracking multiple TMA contacts can be accomplished by pressing the "Enter Solution" button before selecting another track from the contact list box. If you leave the TMA screen, current tracking data for the displayed contact will be available when the TMA screen is revisited.

Sub Command Doctrine Language Guide - The Sub Command Mission Editor contains a powerful feature which is not documented in the original SC manual: the Doctrine Language. - By TimmyG00

 

Sub Command Custom Mission Guide for Multiplay Scenarios
When you join up for a multiplayer game, you don't want to start with the knowledge of events clearly outlined for you. You don't want to begin a battle knowing George is north of you and Al is west, the noisy contact is a trawler, and the Russian DDG will come along in ten minutes. You want to begin with all the uncertainties of real life preserved in your head. Sonalysts did a great job engineering a marvelous Mission Editor and program procedures for Sub Command. With random start boxes, password-protected mission locks, varying degrees of probability of inclusion, and a myriad of units and environment conditions, you can script missions that never play the same way twice with relative ease.

The following guidelines will enhance the random elements and fog of war in Sub Command multiplay missions. They will also assist in ease of mission creation. The basic concept advocated here is to create a basic mission, then clone it several times, changing a few things in each version. They will have identical titles and briefings and binary file names, so most players will not readily recognize the mission before it starts. Indeed, if done according to this guideline, there is a very low recognition factor involved other than the general area of operations.

• Version check in multiplayer added.Warns all players if any player is playing an older version.

Much of the AI is determined by the language coding in the "DOCTRINES" files in the Fleet Command folder. Many slick players have begun experimenting with the doctrines files to make planes engage enemy ships after identifying, prod own ships to fire against incoming SAMs in self-defense, and other improvements to make the game much more playable.

  GREAT NAVAL BATTLES 4 Custom Mission

  • Operation Reinubung - Hunt for the Bismarck. 

    By May 1941, the Kriegsmarine was nearly starving Britain. But yet, Raeder was right. He had already lost the Panzerschiffe Graf Spee, the cruisers Blucher, Konigsburg, and Karlshrue, several destroyers, and his only two Battlecruisers were pinned in at Brest. Thus left only The Hipper, Prinz Eugen, Lutzow, Scheer, Nuremburg, Koln, Emden, and Leipzig as the heavy ships, Excluding the turn-of-the-century predreadnoughts Schleiswig Holstein and Schleisen. But on May 20, the brand new Battleship Bismark set sail for the Atlantic. The British had no choice but to...Sink the Bismarck!
    
     

  • Die Andere Z Plan Alternative
    
    By 1935 the German Navy, had worked out a Plan to build a huge Fleet of Battle ships, Aircraft Carriers, Cruisers and Destroyers. This Plan was Top Secret and where called the Z Plan. The Z Plan should to be completed until 1948, but by 1939  the German Army attacked Poland............ the rest is history. By Rainer
