Top Ten Ace Captains missions uploaded

(Also posted on main discussion forum)

Fascinated by WWII sub history, I have created the patrols of the Top Ten US Navy submarine captains in WWII by number of confirmed ships and tonnage sunk.

They are 10 files uploaded at Filefront:

The patrol missions of each captain are included and each patrol has a mission description & pictures giving the historical background of that particular captain, his sub, and the patrol it went on.

The file names are:

Ace01_OKane.7z (5 patrol missions)
Ace02_Cutter.7z (4 patrol missions)
Ace03_Morton.7z (5 patrol missions)
Ace04_Fluckey.7z (5 patrol missions)
Ace05_Dealey.7z (6 patrol missions)
Ace06_Whitaker.7z (4 patrol missions)
Ace07_Underwood.7z (3 patrol missions)
Ace08_Gross.7z (7 patrol missions)
Ace09_Triebel.7z (5 patrol missions)
Ace10_Coyle.7z (6 patrol missions)

These files are v1.4 & JSGME ready or you can to install them manually into your SinglePatrols folder.

Note: Unlike SH3, SH4's Mission Editor does not allow one to specify the exact name of sub used in a mission, but does allow for sub type and date of entry. So you will get a random name when you start each mission, but at least you will have the right sub type and it's correct configuration for the mission date.

I also updated my Patrols in the Aleutian Islands, which include 20 loosely historical patrols centered on the 1942-43 Aleutian Island battles. These involved S-18 through S-35 as well as the Growler, Triton, Trigger, Grunion, Finback, Gato, Tuna, and Narwhal (had to use a Salmon class for the Narwhal).

I hope you all enjoy these missions and any comments and corrections will be appreciated.

The link for these missions seems to be dead.

Could you re-post your custom-made missions to Filefront please.

Sorry, I dumped Filefront. Here's the new link to all my SH4 files:

I would like to host these on filesnetwork, on the new SH4 game site.

Also, do you allow editing? I'm getting the hang of it and could, if you are not already planning to, change these over to V1.5, or maybe FOTRS depending on if I really like them or not lol.
