I have just posted two practical pieces of information 1) A stand alone exe program for determing if your manual intercepting and targeting and firing your weapon will actually hit the target, which is available for download and 2) I copied my Aces of the Deep Grid Map and have made the sections available for download. They are in my EnemyBeneath website.

Are you really 70 years old? Wow, wish my grandfather played SH3.

Jager Kapitan · 07-12-06, 06:40 PM

Thanks, I've been scouring the internet for something like this after I learned my mom threw out my dad's copy

HEMISENT · 07-12-06, 08:13 PM

Thank You. I have a friend who's a printer. Ill give these to him and see if he can put the whole thing back together again. I've been looking for a decent size grid map to frame and hang on my wall. No luck in coming up with a repro Kreigsmarine chart.

Nice job. I was looking at this site today, and had no idea it was yours

Yes, I'm really 70 years old. Have been playing sub sims ever since they started coming out and when Aces of the Deep came along, I was in heaven, well just until Silent Hunter CE came along. The Pacific Campaign was great. Hope Ubisoft come out with SHIV before I kick the bucket.

I have been 'toying' with the idea ever since I put my web site back up, because Neal asked me if I could put it back up. I kinda figured people would be looking for the Aces of the Deep Grid Map, so I had mine scanned this morning and uploaded it. I'm sure there will be a lot of people downloading that map. Let me know what size of map you get out of it.

There's a really good A2 sized coloured reproduction available from a guy on ebay every now and again - I've bought two - they're about $6 plus postage.

Sure. Go to ebay. I did when I first purchased SH3 and I purchased Aces of the Deep hoping to get the grid map. You know what I got? A box with the CD in it and that was all. Money wasted. Be very careful what and who you buy from on ebay. You don't always get what you think you are getting.

Why go to ebay and pay for something that you don't really know what you are getting when I just published the map on my website.

I was lucky. I rummaged through all my boxes of stuff and found my map when I purchaed Aces of the Deep when it first came out.

JScones · 07-13-06, 03:56 AM

Perhaps you don't understand. I actually purchased a map *AND RECEIVED IT*. I liked it so much, I *PURCHASED AND RECEIVED* a second.

So I know what I was getting! And if I wasn't happy, I most certainly would not have recommended it here!

But this is not to knock what you have done. It's just that some people may like a LARGE, GLOSSY A2 sized map ready for framing. Nothing else. Not many people have A2 sized printers hanging around.

Hemisent just said that he was after one and I gave him an alternate solution. Not everyone has bad ebay experiences (especially if you ask questions first)!

Nice job Rob
Especially handy for me in the wolfpack campaign as dont need to fire the game up now just to work out how far I am from another boats reports - convoys and the like
Thanks

Thanks. I have not used it as it seems a little too complicated for my brain to comprehend. But I thought it might be useful to some players of SH3, and if I understand it correctly, the person using it can also do calculations for ANY weapon including the deck gun. I hope the 'readme' file that comes with it was 'self-explanatory' and I hope it serves you well.

Aw Comon Old rascal, you will make it to SHIV , If Destroyers having trouble sinking you....then SHIV will not stop you

robj250 · 07-13-06, 07:06 PM

Thanks for the vote of confidence HunterICX. I hope so too, but the man upstairs controls the strings, and with my diseases and the history of my family's demise, I should have two younger brothers, but the man upstairs decided different.

One gone at age 55 and the other gone at age 29, both from heart attacks. So wish me luck.
