Map of Shipping Lanes.

Hi, did anyone ever release a map of the shipping lanes? the one supplied with SH3 is a little vague!

I would be interested in it too (though I doubt there were any maps made more accurately than the stock version since these routes are not like streets and fixed in place but represent a general lane of many klicks in width)- or if somebody could give me a clue how to keep the routes visible for a few zoom ins longer that would be just as great...

Instead I would like to see the shipping lanes for each period, e.g. if I am in 1949 I don't want to see convoy lanes that were activated in 1941. Maybe this can be done with SHIII commander?

The same would be great for the shipping recognition manual

The only map I know is the one that comes with SH3. Still there is this little mod http://files.filefront.com/Map_Convo.../fileinfo.html that puts the convoy routes on the navigation map. It was working fine with GW1.1a but I'm not 100% sure that it will work with GWX. If you do use it in GWX there is a chance you will miss the GWX map features. In any case use JSGME to enable it so you can get rid of it if you don't like it.

GWX 1.03 has the stock convoy route map as a pull-down at the nav station (F5).
