Sailor Steve's Ship name database mod
 

Where's SS ship name mod for the SH3 commander program?

Tanks.:salute:

Search the Downloads for "Ship Names" to get the latest version, not so much a mod as an updated .cfg file to stick in your Commander install.

If you were a n00b I'd find it for you and post a link, but you're not, so pffffffffft. :O:

I think the most recent version was from April.

The latest version I have Jason is Feb 11 but I may have missed an update or two:

:haha:

why you hed shotz me? my inglish iz no so gud. me no understndz.

I finally found it, and re-installed it:yeah:.
I love the aspect that it lists what the ship was:rock: carrying. I sank a large merchant carrying mail/post!:haha:

Just came across this ...

Can this be added mid patrol or do you have to wait until you're docked :06:

It goes in SH3 Commander, not the game itself, and it only affects the log generated in Commander. After that's done it will show up in the game log, but not during the game.

So I'm making it too complicated. Yes, you can install it any time. :sunny:

Danke Kaleu SS

Quick question, maybe I missed the read-me but I noticed that it will not generate the name, country, load, sailors etc if you use the Merchant fleet mod 3.2, what is this slow Slovak missing....

The latest version should have all that info for British and American MFM ships. I know the latest version includes them.

I'm not sure. If you look at the list it covers all the MFM ships, and all the info is there. Here's one I just chose at random (leaving off the names part):

[M19B]
CargoTyp=1,2,3,3,3,3,3,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9 ,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25
CrewRange=35|80

When it generates the name it also chooses one cargo type and one number from within that range for the number of crew and then one number from within that for the crew lost. So It's all there, for every ship.

Maybe it was some glitch on that particular save. If it happens again, I will take a snapshot and post the screen. Thanks.
