Real WWII Convoys Pk-1

Real WWII SH3 GWX Convoys


Ive Written ten SH3-GWX Real WWII Convoys in both Single and Multiplayer
when you play them as a Multiplayer mission even though theres only one Uboat.
At the end of the Mission on the score screen at the bottom you can click on detailed results and see the names of the individual ships you have sunk.

Hi as i write more GWX Missions i will keep adding them to the Real WWII Convoys Upload in blocks of five.

I can also write same Missions for LSH-2015 if Subsim Members would like me to same format with all authentic ships names from those Convoys and the escorts even having their Pennant No's eg HMS Snowdrop (K 67)

just give me a heads up

My old dream is to write an HX-239 convoy, but I don’t have time for this.

Hi Anvar1061 old friend Re Convoy HX-239


Work in Progress printed off the Convoy list from Convoyweb then did some spade work getting the escort pennant No's even for CVE Escort Carrier HMS Archer (D 78) https://www.uboat.net/allies/warships/ship/5809.html
Convoy HX-239 41 Merchants 24 Escorts that will be one hell of a Mission


keep safe eveyone keep your beer fridge full and hunker down in your mancave :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:

Hi Anvar1061 old friend Re Convoy HX-239 Finished and added it to the SH3-GWX Real WWII Convoy.
Making the Mission a challenge but not a overkill suicide Mission ive had to do plenty of testing.
I also put Convoy Airpatrols in the Mission using Avenger Aircraft armed with 2 x 250kgs of bombs.
with CVE HMS Avenger in the area you would have close in Air support.

Just when i thought i had escaped out of the back of the Convoy a Blackswan Sloop came a hunting me could that be classed as Blue on Blue.

Thank you, Man! I'll Add Swordfish armed with air missiles. And a wolf pack of Mosel.https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/images/smilies/Kaleun_Cheers-1.gifhttps://www.subsim.com/radioroom/images/smilies/Kaleun_Cheers-1.gifhttps://www.subsim.com/radioroom/images/smilies/Kaleun_Cheers-1.gif

blackswan40 Salute :Kaleun_Salute:

Yes, it would be grand to see of making these available for LSH3-2015 as well...

Would also be grand to see (if doable, to maybe see of being able to add them into the campaign mode... do know that it would be work to do so... but to get orders to patrol & sink shipping in convoys going that route would be awesome...

Not only for SH3, but as an add in to SH4 Operation Monsun (am sure Fifi could see of maybe adding this in to his OM+OMEGU compilation...) just a thought...

:Kaleun_Salute:

[Kapitän]

Great work! Are these also available for CCoM10.0?

[blackswan40]

Sorry I dont have CCom10.0 but if CCom10.0 as the same ship roster as GWX so just like stock SH3 missions would work in GWX then the missions should work with CCOM10.0

But will be starting writing LSH15 versions of these Missions

[3catcircus]

How can these be integrated into the GWX3 campaign?

[Anvar1061]

You can do it yourself using the Wreford-Brown help and turning on your brain

The method:
1. Enable the ship model through JSGME.
2. Start SH3 and ensure the ship appears in the Museum. This will give you your first error check - if it appears in the museum then you're good to script it in.
3. Copy my .mis file to your desktop
4. Find your campaign_SCR file (default location is 'C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Campaigns\Campa ign\Campaign_SCR') and copy to your desktop. This will act as a backup in case anything goes wrong
5. Open SH3 Mission Editor at 'C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\Sh3MissionEditor'
6. Select 'Open (Normal Mission)' or use shortcut [Ctrl-O]
7. Open: 'C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Campaigns\Campa ign\Campaign_SCR'
8. Select 'File'
9. Select 'Merge'
10. Check the 'Mark merged data as saveable' box
11. Select 'OK'
12. Open my .mis file on your desktop
13. Select 'File'
14. Select 'Save Scripted Layer As'
15. Save in: 'C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Campaigns\Campa ign'
16. File name 'Campaign_SCR'
Start SH3 and hunt her down!

For my edumacation, is there a technical reason why the .rnd file wasn't/isn't being used ?

[blackswan40]

Hi John Re Random Leyer is being used also but had to strip out all the Random Convoys so there wasn't any Convoys crashing into each other in the Atlantic or around ports
This campaign was written for the Steel Sharks when a Convoy was found that Uboat player would shadow the Convoy vector in other Players/Uboats on our forum radio message posts
in their single player identical campaign with same game files and when they have all found same convoy then the multiplayer Mission would be written same ships in same place within the Convoy same loadouts same crew class ect then we would play the wolfpack attack on Tunngle Evolve or Hamachi.

I have no idea, if CCoM10.0 has the same ship roster as GWX/Stock_Sh3 ...

Ok, thanks for the info.

[Doolar]

I've been playing careers, ever since I've I started playing SHIII. I have just discovered "Single Missions" after reading this thread the other day. I wasn't very experienced with single missions, but I gave it a try. I figured I'm doing something wrong here.When I load the first single mission, 1939-09-16-2200 (con OB-4) for example, I get a TypeVII boat in the external view and a TypeII boat in the "weapons management and crew management" screens. Then followed by major damage through-out the boat. It does the behavior for the first 3 or 4 single missions then when I get down to the 5th mission, all works as advertised. Any help or guidance would be appreciated .... Jerry

[blackswan40]

Hi Doolar ive seen that sort of thing before when playing a campaign loading in a saved game



Try playing the missions as multiplayer/Lan but theres only one uboat in the missions so you are playing it as a lone hunter so to speak but when the mission is complete and you end the mission on the score screen it tells you your total tonage also at the bottom theres a detailed results tab click on that and it tells you the real historic names of Ships Sunk and Tonage
let me know if the Multiplayer Missions do the same.


Regards blackswan

[Doolar]

Blackswan40, I did what you suggested then I selected the Type VII (1939) for the Multiplayer Mission 1939-09-16-2200 (OB-4), and it worked perfectly. I would guess a Type VII Boat was the boat to use in this mission ? It works great now, so thank you for the help :Kaleun_Cheers:

[Anvar1061]
