Spy Satellite Mod
 

Ok, I'm throwing this out there if anyone wants it I can e-mail it just PM me. I'm at work right now so I can make it available when I get home.

NEW Reduced traffic http://rapidshare.de/files/4775353/S...affic.zip.html

I took the stock 1.4b RND Layer and modified the convoys only. Generally all I did was up the detection percentage and the time between spawns. I also added some surprises to one convoy. Basically you will see ALL convoys that are on the map close to real time. I can post a screen shot later showing the line of convoys traveling from Halifax to England and back.

Once again this is totally unrealistic, I know. As I've posted before I get very little time to play, being in the military, so some days I just want to find the convoys and sink them. I will make it JSME compatible.

There is a massive amount of realism mods for the hardcore gamers here. I play many of them when I have the time. This one is for the casual arcade style players who want to decimate one convoy after the other.

Remember to only load this in port as it does change the RND layer in the campaign.

hehe, maybe the Germans were more advanced in their rocket technology after all... they lauched a spy satelite into orbit. :lol:

Hmm... you should call it the spy satelite mod. :lol:

I like it! :up:

Name change coming up.

Sounds cool! I'd like to try it out. I just got out of the Navy, but still work for the Govt, so I've got similar time crunch. What do you do? (Branch, job)

I'm a Public Affairs Detachment Supervisor for the Coast Guard in Kodiak, Alaska. I already spend a lot of time at work and being married really cuts into the game time. I should be home in a few hours, then I'll post the screen shot and the file.

Here is the file. Rember this is incompatible with any mods that use the RND layer.

I'll post a screen shot in a little bit

Here is what your game map looks like with this mod.

That is SO cool! :up: :sunny: :ping:

Thanks terrapin.

I'm glad you like it. Remember it only tracks convoys and task forces right now. I'm thinking of doing a new version that adds the HK groups. I'm leaving the single traffic contacts alone as there are so many to begin with and they get reported all the time.

Thanks! Sank all of 2 convoys in my IXC for a total of 134,072 tons. WOW. :arrgh!:

Keep an eye out because there are two "specials". There is a convoy with a few extra tankers and some beefier (read as 4 BB's and a couple of carriers) escorts. There is also a task force that leaves out of Loch Ewe that would be worth sinking.

I haven't had time to play this week as I'm getting ready to head to Chicago for most of next month (I'm from there). I hope to get some time in today with my modified IXC.

Normally I would condemn such a mod as this as an out-and-out concession to the soft-core, arcade-loving namby-pambies, who are looking for a shoot-em-up, rather than a fine naval simulation. :nope:

On the other hand I've been chugging around out on patrol for over a week now, with b****er all contacts to sink! :doh:

I'll give it a try ;)

Thanks, mate!

Hawkers :up:
