Anvart's GWX_DFa-Flag & Pens_2010 mod
 

With Anvart's GWX_DFa-Flag&Pens_2010 mod, do you have to open the .eqp files to get the pennants to display on the boat in the harbor, or just follow the readme instructions key commands once in the harbor ?

In the readme, it states "Two files (Pennants.jpg, ListOfPens.jpg) with the image of pennants and with the list of pennants, which you can write down in file "..\data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat$$\NSS_Uboat$$.eqp " after each patrol (as sunk tonnage), are presented."

I'm confused by the meaning of this statement; it says *after* the patrol........and if opening the .eqp files are needed, what program does that ?

You enable it last through JSGME the mod should
Have a data folder with animations, library, and objects. A commands file .etc Shift F raises the flag
CTRL F lowers it. Pennants raise by CTRL Page Uo
and only display within 500 meters of Port ie begin
A patrol, make it all the way back to dock. Equipment files should all be in the mod no editing
Is required. It only works with the U-Boats in GWX 3.0
RDF antenna is raised by shift v. When a dive command is given the flag automatically lowers, and the antenna as well.

At the end of your campaign, you can independently create a set of pennants that you want to hang on the basis of the previous military campaign. To do this, you must edit your .eqp file according to List of Pennants

Number and set of pennants according to your merits. But not more than a doz. (12).
Hardly enough torpedoes for you more.
If you want to.

Thanks, I've done all that and the flag/rdf work good. Just wasn't sure if something else had to be done for the pennants.

When you enable the pennants coming into port, are they generic or does each one have the correct info. on it from what you actually sank ?

Ok, I see. Since it's campaign end, would these still show up on the sub somehow ? Or is the process;

- save close to port after a patrol.

- edit the .eqp files with what you sunk.

- reload the game, go to port and the flags are displayed with the correct info. on what you sunk.

Is that it ?

And what can be used to open the .eqp files ? S3d doesn't do it for me anyway.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Strange; notepad isn't doing it either. First thing I tried. I'll keep messing with it.

Got notepad working now, not sure why it didn't before.


Thanks again guys ! Great mod.

It is necessary to change the gasket on the computer.

Bigger hammer <g>

Can't get the pennants to show.

- sunk four ships.

- in port, just outside the pens. WO is not searching; binos are down.

- mod is installed via JSGME.

- everything works; flag, DF antenna, attack scope goes up/down, just no pennants showing.

- via google thread, I verified the commands file is ok too (as above anyway, all commands work, just no pennants showing.

- I do have Hsie's supplement folder installed after this mod, but it only has an Type VIIf in it. I assume it's the ai sub for the wolfpack mod ?
I'm in a VIIB.

Any hints ? Sub is sitting outside pen still.

John,

I guess you are doing this on a NYGM install, correct? I had the same problem long ago and spent many hours attempting to get the pennants to work, no joy. It works just fine in GWX and WAC5 installs.

I gave up and just did without. There is just something in NYGM not enabling it to work. It is just eye candy anyway and that is why I spend my time playing NYGM mostly.

If I get a hankering for bright shiny objects with whistles and bells then I play one of the others.

Know it is not much help.

Actually this is on my GWX 3 install. But thanks for the reply anyway !

Btw, to get the pennants, do you just raise the scope within range of the harbor ?


Also, I bet if you import the GWX subs/turms into NYGM the mod would work.

Well, I docked and started the next patrol. Pennants show up now when I'm leaving the pen.


Strange. Guess it'll work now though at the end of the patrol too. All the pennants are showing too; no way to make it so it represents just the ones you sunk ?
