Default [REQ] Map Insert mod for Nav Screen

Seeing as I bought SH4 in Canada, I did not get any stuff with the purchase other than a brief manual and the game DVD. There was no fold-out map.

Is there a way to get a map insert that you can drag down to look at like in SH3 for the SH4 map? I have never even seen the map yet but from what I hear, it has aircraft ranges, shipping routes, etc.

Ah good point...just a sec and I will check...

Nope. Nothing on DVD. This is a Canadian purchase which had nothing other than manual and DVD. It sucks.

EEEk. I have the "Village people" navy avatar...

That is the map i'm looking for. It has the shipping routes, aircraft range, etc.

But I would like a copy that I can look at on my cpu or that I can drag down like we can the SH3 one in the navigation screen. It was a tab in the top left that allowed you to pull it down and look at the grids, etc.

Thanks anyways HeinzS, but that is not the map... That is the same map as the navigation screen.

When someone buys the game they get a nifty fold-out map. Large. With shipping routes, aircraft ranges, dates, all kinds of crap. Because I bought the game in Canada, I did not get this map.

Someone took a photo of the map and modded it so that it sits on the deak in the control room. However, this is not what I was looking for. Yes, that is the the map, but I would like to see it as draggable and viewable in the navigation screen like the Silent Hunter 3 included map was modded.

Or at least get a viewable copy from UBI or something that I can take a look at.

Thanks for the info though.

That would be cool to have that so you can see the mine fileds and trade routes, etc. Look at in game.

Canada never even got a map?? jeez Ubi.

Here is a link to the SH3 mod for information: http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=46146

And here is a screenshot from that post that shows the included map "dragged" so it can be looked at. I would figure out how to do it myself but I Don't have the map.
