Seems its not JSGME compatable

OK

Put the NPPQ_ folder in the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Sea folder

Put the PPQ cfg in the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Roster\British\ Sea folder

Copy and paste PPQ=Queen Mary to the bottom of the EnglishNames.cfg in the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Sea Folder

And have it compatible with JSGME would be very helpful. :up:

02-10-07, 03:27 PM

Will it have to be scripted to make it show up in game?
Also will it find it's way into a latter update of GWX?

bigboywooly

02-10-07, 03:36 PM

Hope you dont mind U-B
This upload is JSGME compatable
The GWX EnglishNames.cfg is included with the Q Mary already added

If your not using GWX copy and paste the last lne in the EnglishNames.cfg to your own and delete the included one

http://www.mediafire.com/?dj2d3myiwkt

It should ( hopefully ) get included in the spring update
Not my decision though

As its classified as a type=103 it will show ingame already where generic entries are called for :up:

02-10-07, 03:40 PM

:hmm: I might be mistaken and usually am. But, wasn't the Queen Mary converted to a hospital ship during WWII?

:hmm: I might be mistaken and usually am. But, wasn't the Queen Mary converted to a hospital ship during WWII?
This is what I found in wikipedia

World War II
In late August 1939, the Queen Mary was on a return run from New York to Southampton. However, the international situation led to her being shadowed by the battlecruiser HMS Hood (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Hood_%2851%29). She arrived safely, and set out again for New York on 1 September (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_1). By the time she arrived, the Second World War (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_World_War) had started, and she was ordered to stay where she was, joining her great rival, Normandie. In 1940, the pair were also joined by Queen Mary's running mate Queen Elizabeth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Queen_Elizabeth). Rather than keeping them bottled up, it was decided to use them as troopships (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troopship). So, the Queen Mary left New York for Sydney (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney%2C_Australia), where she, along with several other liners, was converted into a troopship to carry Australian and New Zealand soldiers to the United Kingdom (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom). Eventually joined by the Queen Elizabeth, they were the largest and fastest troopships involved in the war, often carrying as many as 15,000 men in a single voyage, and often travelling out of convoy and without escort. During this period, because of their wartime grey camouflage livery and elusiveness, both Queens received the nickname "The Grey Ghost". Because of their size and prestige their sinking was such a high priority for Germany that Adolf Hitler (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler) offered the equivalent of $250,000.00 and the Iron Cross to the U-boat commander who could sink them.[citation needed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources)] However, their high speed meant that it was virtually impossible for U-Boats (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U_boat) to catch them. Once, Germany was nearly successful; whilst the Queen Mary was in South American waters, a radio signal was intercepted which indicated that spies had reported her last refuelling stop and a U-Boat was waiting on her line of voyage. After being alerted, the Queen Mary changed course and escaped.
On October 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_2), 1942 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1942), Queen Mary accidentally sank one of her escorts, slicing through the light cruiser HMS Curacoa (D41) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Curacoa_%28D41%29), with the loss of 338 lives. Due to the constant danger of being attacked by U-Boats, the Queen Mary could not stop, or even slow down, to rescue survivors.
In December 1942, the Queen Mary was carrying nearly 15,000 American troops from New York to Great Britain. While 700 miles from Scotland during a gale, she was suddenly hit broadside by a rogue wave (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_wave_%28oceanography%29) that may have reached a height of 28 meters (92 feet). In his book, The Age of Cunard, author Daniel Allen Butler mentions that the immense wall of water damaged lifeboats on the boat deck and broke windows on the bridge – 90 feet above the waterline. The huge wave caused a list that briefly reached an astounding 52 degrees before the ship slowly righted itself. He reported that investigations later estimated that three more degrees of list (about 5 inches in the wrong direction) would have made the vessel capsize. He also said that seasoned hands on the ship felt it would indeed roll over. The occurrence was kept secret at the time. An account of this crossing can be found in Walter Ford Carter's book, No Greater Sacrifice, No Greater Love. Carter's father, Dr. Norval Carter, part of the 110th Station Hospital on board at the time, wrote that at one point the Queen Mary "damned near capsized... One moment the top deck was at its usual height and then, swoom! Down, over, and forward she would pitch." The incident inspired Paul Gallico (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Gallico) to write his story, The Poseidon Adventure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Poseidon_Adventure), which was later made into a film by the same name, using the Queen Mary as a stand-in for the SS Poseidon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Poseidon).

Always understood her to be a troopship because of her speed :yep:

A movie title comes to mind: "Assault on a Queen" :)
The ship is really terrific. Can't wait to get home and download her.

BTW: Please don't think I'm ungrateful but isn't there an Olympic class ship model around somewhere? I'd love to have one of those beauties in the game even though it wasn't historical since Olympic was scrapped in 1935, but we simply could name them "Large Old Liner" or something :) *please* ;)

Yes, there is a large four funelled liner on this site that was built by UBOAT234 - he intended to to represent the Lusitania, but since she was also out of commission by WWII (torpedoed in WWI, as everyone knows), the model best represents the Aquitania - the only large four-funelled liner left by WWII. Actually, she was so old and worn out that at the end of the war, she was literally starting to fall apart by some accounts.:huh:

On another note; I don't like to complain, but I think someone should make a new ID page for the Queen Mary - the one posted here is just the stock Passenger Liner fitted with an extra funnel (and with the original two adjusted). You can tell by the different masts and bridge.:know:
