Hi Kylania,

a relly good jor your tutorial.:up:

I had seen some lines about the ME, but all them are placet
to the high seas.
No picture or lines in harbors directely.
Therefore let me take three questions about this theme, please!

1.) How can I add minefields and antisubnets?
I cannot find any clickpoints in ordnance/roster for them.

These seem to be missing from the Roster which is why they aren't showing up. However, if you create the config files as they were in SH4 the editor errors out saying there's no platform for them and crashes. Perhaps mine fields were never finished for SH5? I'm not familiar enough with the editor to figure out how to restore them, for now. :)

2.) What means the icon "Map LOcation Edit Mod" ?

Info coming in a bit, trying to figure out what all the options do. Basically it's a mode that lets you configure a Map Location you put down, like when it displays where the Carrier should be in the 3rd mission for example.

3.) How can I see the harbor_boudaries and kais?

I can't seem to find a way to see them in the editor. :(

It would be a geat help to me if you can answer to this questions.

Best regards

Karl

When you say harbour boundaries, are you talking about this?

Just a quick post in case it hasn't been mentioned before.
But I couldn't get my Game mission to save as .misge (Only option was .mis) untill I selected from the menu options Player=Axis (Default was Player=Allies).
Once changed was able to select between .mis and .misge :up:

In the mission editor you'll run across Project Names, Mission Names and Mission File Names. Here's how they work:

You'll need a Project somewhere to gain access to working with missions. For single
player missions however they aren't strickly required. You can have a single player mission without having all the campaign and project files along with it.

When you start a new mission you'll give it a name. That name will appear in the right side of the mission editor. The end user won't see this name though, they'll see the Mission
Title you set for it.

The most important thing is that your mission folder and mission file match. Like this:

\data\SingleMissions\MyMission folder should have at minimum MyMission.misge and MyMission.tsr in it. That's all you need. :) The tsr file is created when you save the mis.

You'll also note that the mission editor saves as *.mis. You'll need to change that to *.misge in order to see the missions in game. Do this when you save or later in Windows Explorer.

I'm not really happy with the wording. :/ Also think I need more about the project, but still fuzzy myself about them. :) Currently I just have a blank Project I use essentially to start the editor, haven't made a campaign yet, but soon!

Anyone figure out how to add mines and subnets?

I see files (new files) for them, I cant seem to add them the same way we used to.

Anyone even see any of them in the game anywhere?

I'd asked this in the ME Discussion thread and never got a response. When I tried to add them to the editor it broke horribly. Maybe we'll get them back with a patch?

Do any of the current campaigns have mines? I looked through a bunch but didn't see any...

There is a dummy minefield dat in the Liibrary along with the NavalMine dat from previous version though is only 1kb
Maybe something not implemented by the devs
yet
No campaign mis files reference any mines or subnets though the miss ed does

Maybe they just not ingame

Deck Gun

How do you man deck gun ? When I man deck gun through through the Officer Of The Watch the deck gun operates fine. When I press key F5 to operate manualy nothing happens.[AA gun is the same] Am I doing something wrong ? Any help will be appreciated.

To unman the gun surface your boat, even if you're already on the surface.

Hopefully this broken feature will be fixed with the next patch, but till then that's the workaround.

Hi all,

today i played with the me the first time.
But i have one problem. Every unit i place in the editor appears as 2 in the game. If i set no placement radius, they appear at the very same point. They are melted together and for the ai it takes serveral minutes until they separat from each other. One of the units follows its waypoints then, the other one does not move from the spawn point.
I checked the mission-file there is only one unit per placed unit.
I have no problems with the stock missions every think works fine here.
Did i missed something?

TIA
Chebawookee

Edit: Solved it! Saving of the mission was the problem.

How do you edit detection percentage and report frequency. Every time I play with it I hose my mission up.

I played with that a little, but nothing i changed seem to make much of a difference. Hopefully someone smarter than I can explain it! :O:
