Another Note;
There is alot more that isn't posted you have to PM me for the cool details.

When will this be finished....:hmm: Hopefully sooner than later.

[Wolfehunter]

Does anybody know how to access the world game map and modify it? Or is it hardcoded?:hmm:

[Hitman]

You can modify it with a program called SH3 Terrain Extractor created by "can't-remember-who-but-I'm-sure-someone" did :p That's how the Kiel and Panama channels were added. You will need to do a search to find it.

Sorry I can't help more, all that is an area I never look into.

Thanks a million. I remember seeing that somewere I'll find it. I think it located at the community manual from SH3 forum.

Found it made by REF

[Wolfehunter]

I fixed it.

Its in the location.cfg file in data\terrain\

you have to add

[Location 25]
Long=8.107345
Lat=53.510143
Heading=161
OnLand=false
ShowOnMap=true
FileName=Wilhelmshaven
"LocationName=Wilhelmshaven" It was missing

Also I'm wondering if other locations can be added as city icons or harbour icons
etc.:hmm:

[Wolfehunter]

Ok I need your help again guys. For the Recognition Manual. Some nations I can't see there title. Which file do I need to add the missing nations on the book cover?

[Wolfehunter]

Heres my theory I could be wrong. I heard from many that ubisoft couldn't make the world have changed enviroments ingame. It was broken or some such. I looked at the file called SeaInf.raw. 3 colour represented by Arct.dat, med.dat and atl.dat files within the world map. I changed it as you see below.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/f...er/SeaInf2.jpg

Now if my theory is sound these dat files are mapped to the areas matching the coloured zones. So arctic and anarctic are EnvColors/SkyColors_Arct.dat, Atlantic ocean and Pacific are Env/SkyColors_Atl and Coastal mid lands rivers or inland oceans near the equator are Env/Skycolors_Med.dat.

So If I'm wrong tell me. If my idea has hit something let me know. Many of you are more expericanced in this than I. So be nice I have no idea what I'm doing?:hmm:

I'm working on trial and error right now.

'tis the best way to learn!

[Wolfehunter]

Fix one problem Find another. Does anybody know which files effect the internal guages dials sub? All of them seem to be pointing to the 12 oclock and stationary. Even the Hydrophone thingi is frozen. Any clues?:hmm:

Nevermind I fixed it.

[Wolfehunter]

If anyone can offer to help I could use it. Mainly to get the sun and moon to reflect properly. I know there is already a moon correction but its not compatible with current file settings. I don't know how to use Hex editing. So if anyone is offering to help I would appreciated it.

finally another alternative mega-mod. This is what this forum has needed for a long time. Since GWX will finally be coming to an end we need something bigger and better to take it's place. I'm onboard, what can I do to help?

[Wolfehunter]

You both got PMed and thanks

I really think moving SH3 over to the SHIV engine is where most of us want to go next, If the devs bring player Uboats over to SHIV in an expansion, I really dont see what is going to stop us.
Well, thats what im hoping for anyway - so if anyone wants help modling ship interors for SH3 units.... you know where to find me! LOL

Can you do the XXIII interior?:hmm: I have the AI XXIII. I could configure it to work as playable in SH3 if there is a proper interior.:p
