[REL] New Wilhelmshaven plus locks for GWX 3

[bigboywooly]

Posted this as a WIP a couple of weeks ago

Mod adds the new port of Wilhelmshaven by thfue58 from the ubi.de forums and is based on my previous mod ( St Naz and Schleuse with extra ships V4 )



Port feature locks which open and close





As well as a host of other features such as moving cranes, vehicles and trains
The locks have a set of lights outside that contain a green and red lamp
Green and ok to enter as lock is open and red obviously closed
lol

New port and terrain changes by thfeu58 further terrain changes by me.
I have moved all the docked and moving traffic at Wilhelmshaven and merged the 2 different .sdls as well as applying all terrain changes

As the mod was close to release was given permission by Rowi58 to use his opening locks he made for LSH3
He also kindly intergrated them into the Kiel canal schleuse and St Naz port that I already had so didnt need to use the new versions in LSH
Thanx Rowi mate







The locks at the Schleuse and St Naz have a different light and signal system
( am gonna steal the below shamelessly from the LSH3 manual )


The picture shows a ‘choice’ of these animated objects and how they can be found at the sluice Holtenau; in the foreground, the closed lock gates and in the background the open lock gates, each with the "form light signal" as well as also in the foreground the signal mast. The flags at the signal mast show the Captain and how long he still has to wait or sail into the sluice. Here in the picture, the red and the green-yellow flag mean that the gates are still closed, less than 4 but more than 2 minutes.

Been tested extensively over in the GWX lair and for that I have to thank Irish1958 , Tarjak , Melnibonian and Wreford Brown
Thanx guys but WB deserves an extra mention as he pointed out a couple of errors in the original mods campaign which have been tracked and fixed
One that would have CTD in 43 using merged campaign and another in Lite traffic

Also included in the mod is an Atlantic\US east coast set of campaign files



Traffic outside the red ring has been removed unless enters or leaves that location
ONLY to enabled while in an atlantic French base and will need to be disabled if leave the atlantic French ports for Norway etc
Does decrease load times as file size reduced considerably

So heres the file

Enjoy

If you have the previous St Naz,Schleuse and extra ships mod pls disable that before adding this
Is JSGME ready

Ideally the Wilhelmshaven mod should be enabled first on top of an unmodded GWX install - no need for a reinstall just disable all current mods
As the Wilhelmshaven mod replaces some of the default GWX optional mods this way you know when you enable those they are the latest and up to date verions
Then add your mods back in

WB is already at work to intergrate his Von Dos ship mod into this one so something else to look forward to

-----------------------------------------------------

New Wilhelmshaven remains the property of thfue58 and permission is needed to use his work in any other mod
Locks at St Naz and Schleuses remain property of Rowi58 and his permission is needed for use anywhere else
GWX campaign files remain property of GWX

Original permissions still apply from previous mod in respect of ships and port additions

Fantastic! Thanks, BBW!

Thanks BBW. This will be great, so now all I do is create new game w/GWX again so that will make 4 games/careers (1 game 1 career on each) 1940, 1942 w/XXI and the one that kicks my butt everytime coming out of port, Jan 1945

I guess if we want to go outside the Red ring we have to enable the
Traffic mod...?

If not the first one above is the right download...

Mi question is if we want both should we enable both mods or just the
traffic mod?

Second question to enable the first mod, we have to disable
St Naz and Schleuse with extra ships or not?

Another question: it seems that you have included a .sdl file for the new sounds nut that overwrites
the FM Interior .sdl file, I have installed FM interior at last, but I guess this way I will loose some of
your new sounds, can a compat version of this .sdl file be made with FM Interior .sdl ?? ...Pleeeeaaaasssseee!


Thanks BBW...wounderfull job mate as always...

Also included in the mod is an Atlantic\US east coast set of campaign files

Guys, the first download is his previous mod. The last download is the latest version of the mod.

Actually, I'm thinking the opposite JC....the traffic mod has probably been put in to lower the loading times because the remainder of the SH3 world has been deleted (in traffic terms)

[Admiral Von Gerlach]

OK i will do GWX then thanks appreciate the reply.

[dada1973]

Hi everybody
I've a question about this mod: if i enable the mod without pressing F5, does the "MODS" included are activated too (merged campaign, lite harbor,...) or must I enable those mods with JSGME?
In other words, if I enable Wilhem and press F5,"new' Lite Harbor trafic, Merged campaing,... are enabled too??
Thanks
Dan
(English is not my mother langage, so I did'nt understand that point in another thread)

[Wreford-Brown]

They are automatically copied into the relevant folders so you should be OK but, just to be sure, I'd press F5.

[dada1973]

Thanks WB. But even if they are copied in the relevant folder, they are still not enabled? that's the meaning of my question....
So if I want to play Merged campaing with Willem, I still must enable GWX Merged campaign after enabling Wilhem?
Sorry if it's seem stupid, but I'm not expert with mods (and computer in general

[Jankowski]

oooh. didnt read that one!

thanks again!

[Jankowski]
