[REL] Atlantic Grid

[DarkFish]

This is my first mod, so don't be too harsh;)

I like the Kriegsmarine grid in the Indian Ocean, but I've always thought it's a major shortcoming that it there aren't any grids for the Atlantic so I decided to add those grids.
I've placed them as accurately as possible, however some grids aren't displayed correctly as the game can only display square grids (and some, like AM/AN, aren't squares).
All grids in the atlantic and mediterranean ocean are added.

Here is the result:

This looks great. Any idea if it will work with Worn 'Scopes and Nomograph (15b)? (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=131981)

great job does this also make enemy shipping appear in the Atlantic and Med?

Interesting :hmm:
Have you sunk a ship in a grid ? What does the message say ?
Does it give the correct location

[csengoi]

:D
You've just anticipated me! I wanted to make a grid editor, but now I'll just stop doin it.

[ivank]

if ships do appear in the Atlantic and Med may I use it in my Hilfskreuzer and AMC mod?

[csengoi]

I think it is only a single file which contains the grid. It must be compatible with every mod.

[cgjimeneza]

you must get in touch with lurker to officially add the kriesgmarine grid to op monsun

my hat is off to you

Amazing job and a much needed one :up: :up:

You couldn't have done a better start in the modding scene :rock:

EDIT: Woooo you included Arctic and Black Sea, great!!

[DarkFish]

Just answering some questions...

This looks great. Any idea if it will work with Worn 'Scopes and Nomograph (15b)? (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=131981) as csengoi says it's a single file and should work with any mod

great job does this also make enemy shipping appear in the Atlantic and Med?
It doesn't make shipping appear in the atlantic/med, I leave that up to other mods like OM


Have you sunk a ship in a grid ? What does the message say ?
Does it give the correct location
"June 1, 1943, 12:05 Grid BF 57"
But as I was in BF 58 it doesn't really give the correct location:)

DarkFish,

Thanks for this mod. It looks great!

[lurker_hlb3]

I recommend this mod to all Operation Monsun users. But please note as DarkFish has stated that it is not 100% accurate, there may be times were radio reports don't match the the map display.

[JHuschke]

Pretty cool, keep it up with the mods..we all need something different!

[DarkFish]

As lurker says it's not 100% accurate, but it comes close.
As the locations of the objectives in the OM campaign aren't 100% accurate either, in about 1/3 of the missions the objective location isn't in the right grid (although they are never far apart).

The grid is only really inaccurate in weirdly shaped grids, which are AM, AN and AO, and small sections of AD, AJ, AK, BF and CH. All other grids are pretty much on the correct location.
