Please someone that knows somthing post or send me an mp , because im really block ( and all the mod is ended ) , the problem is insert the new date and location to the main menu of the game, i dont know how to do that , i searh and i locate a file calle en_menu , but i dont understand anything......

Hola, Lucky, tu mod se ve muy bueno!! Realmente no tengo idea de cómo ayudarte, aunque me parece que "correr" el inicio a 1936 no será posible.

Pudiste agregar unos Polikarpovs en la flotilla aérea republicana? Esos avioncitos prestados por Stalin...me encantará darles con la ametralladora

If we serve to German Kriegsmarine in SH3, what´s the problem with the German U boat for Franco?

I´m not a "franquista", but neither a nazi...

Well...For compensate that, I play SH4 PTO too

Best regards.

Saludos, Lucky, espero encuentres la yuda que necesites. Tu mod promete...

Gracias hombre , no coji exactamente ese avion , meti alguno aviones rusos

The idea it isnt now run it at 1936 . is 1 / 1 / 1938 , we wil play 1 Year of war and later the normal campaing ( II WW ) but i didnt know , how to add it to the menu .. so ... we still stopped until fix it ( all help is wellcome )

So i will explain better for a good comprehension.

I want to implement a new flotilla , for example the 3th flotilla , that will combat in the mediterranean sea in the spanish civil war since 1 / 1 /1938 ( the first date that the sh3misioneditor admits) and use the spanish dock ""Palma de mallorca "" as home base ( like kiel or wilhemshaven or brest ... ) but i didnt now how to modify this information , and ""ADD"" it to the menu of the game For example :

You are going to star a new campaing and u can choose from different flotillas and diferent years ,

my idea is that u , from the menu of the game , choose 1938 ( starting the 1/ 1 / 1938) in the 3th flotilla ( for example ) starting in Palma de Mallorca ( i think that is the better base to operate ) , i search and searh , and finally found in a folder call "Menu"" a file call ""en_menu"" i think that i must modify something there , but i dont undestand well how the folder is manage .That is the point
Any idea ????

Ducimus has done something similar by moving the 12th Flotilla to Penang. Check out the d/l http://rapidshare.de/files/19824374/...S_1_1.zip.html for hints.

You'd want to set the start base as Kiel from March 1941 to August 1941 before changing to La Pallice between August 1941 and October 1944.

The shoots go over there .... jajaja thanks!!

Ok i edit : in red all that i dont understand

[danzig70]

I tried to add a flotilla so I will help as much as I can:

TO0=940 ???????
NbStartingDate0=6 ???????
NbDate0=6 ???????

Starting date information. Never understood the TO value. Year perhaps?

NbBases0=2 ???????

In your example there are two bases available for this flotilla, Kiel and Brest

Base0_0=750;Kiel ( this is refer to en_menu ????)) ( Here Palma de Mallorca )
Date0_0_0=1939 ( I want to place here 1938))
Month0_0_0=8 ( Here 1, mean january no ??? and the number of the days where it goes ?? )

The base is where I got stuck. It must reference a list of bases in another file. Try leaving the dates the same until everything else is correct. This is month and year only.

DeparturePointLong0_0=1218360.000000 ( can i search in sh3 editor the position that i like to use ??? )
DeparturePointLat0_0=6521927.000000 ( can i search in sh3 editor the position that i like to use ??? )

Yes, its in the status bar of the mission editor;


NbUboats0=2 ???????
Uboat0_0=0 ???????
Uboat0_1=1 ???????

I think is the number of boats available for you. If you follow the naming convention, a 0, 1, or 2 identifies the flotilla or base. I think this is for the boats available in for each base.


iNbName00=3 ???????
Name000=U-1
Name001=U-2
Name002=U-3

There are three boat designations so iNbName is probably an index. So, if two uboats were available iNbName would probably be 2. This is the fun part as you can assign your own designations like S-001, S-002 for Spain.


T0_000=60 ???????
T0_001=80 ???????
T2_000=15 ???????
T2_001=20 ???????

This might be the probability of which boat is assigned to you at the start of the mission. I have no idea.


July0003=0
July0004=0 Why 0 ??? Because the war didnt start ???

Aug0000=AN26 Why 0 diferent from july , june may .... ???

This assigns your patrol grid. As the flotilla is effective in August, then there is a patrol grid assigned for August. I think you can edit your patrol grids here for grids around Spain.

I would edit an existing flotilla that starts in Sept 1939 and get it to work. Then, see if you can advance the date. I am working on adding a base in Antarctica and Asia, so I will follow your progress.

It never ceases to amaze that we can all play "nazi" uboats and nobody even thinks about politics, just about this or the other side, axis/allies, etc, but as soon as the spanish civil war appears ...

OK, I know that nobody had yet talked seriously about politics, but since I am spaniard and know that this is a sensible theme for some people, I just wanted to make the comment so as to ensure everybody remembers in all moments that we are talking here just about a sim we all love

I think it's because contrary to the "nazi" thing, which is quite dead and not taken serious, the theme of the spanish conflict, or the conflict of two outlooks, is still very alive, at least for the persons interested in it. It still can awake strong feelings, not only in Spain. But as you said, on this forum we can find a common word and passion beyond political differences and I hope that this fact will be always in front (...and we can always fight on the streets, hehehe )

i found the next post

The base codes, (751, 749, etc etc) are defined in the en_menu.txt (if i remember correctly) . This file is key to alot of things, as it assigns the ID numbers that many of the supporting game files use.

Do a search in the file and look for the sub base. You should find a section that looks like (not exact, just an example)

749 = keil
750 = toulon
etc etc



So if you want to change a base all you do is
- assign the base a number (you can use an unused number, as theres room for more bases)
- Edit your foatilla.cfg to reflect the base number you want for whatever floatilla.
- open the campaign.lnd layer in wordpad and search for your base , write down its lat and long
- edit your flotialla .cfg to relfect the lat/long start position

Thats about it.

you can for example, make the 12 float start at Penang, or perhaps even the 1st or 7th out of La Rochelle.

The only thing that i think is hardcoded to some degree is the number of flotialls, while you can change and create bases all you want, i dont think you can create additional flotillas.

Ducimus i think that u could help me

[Lucky07]

still blocked ... lollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll ll

[Lucky07]

I solve the problem .... more or less.

i Place the base , im testing now ,u star in the 4/1/1939 , but to begin in to 1 / 1 / 1938 , u must modify ""MANUALLY"" in your campaings data ( documents folder , not game files ) since today i cant found other way to run it

in few hours i will upload the beta testing in megaupload and will be waiting for bugs reports and suggest , ( i remid that the messages are only available in spanish ) enjoy

I cannot work with Spanish as my language skills are poor, and it has been decades since I used the language.
There are several members of the forum who are fluent in English and Spanish. Would it be possible to PM them and see if they are willing to translate the files for you?
I would like to help with the testing but I don't think I could because of my poor language skills.
