[WIP] Ships database for TDW UI - SOAN - Page 9

Trevally. · 03-14-11, 11:53 AM

Hello everyone following this thread

As of yet there is no takers from anyone for adding the extra info to the escorts

There are 21 escorts in the game. I will do half of them if someone else will do the other half.
I will provide you with a JSGME ready file mod with all the required files and templates in place.

So all you would need to do is google the ship type and paste the information into the template.
Pick some nice pictures and paste them into a folder.

I can ensure the script will work and resizing any images, or help you to do it.

I will do the other half, even I was hoping for some extra help. Escorts are not my favourite part and is harder than the rest of the ships.

Trevally, can you make me a blank dds at 380x150px with paint.net? I dont really feel like installing it only to set custom size to a dds...

Trevally. · 03-14-11, 01:50 PM

See here for blank dds @ 380x150 http://http://www.gamefront.com/file...0/Untitled.dds

I can split the sea folder with half escorts in each and send you one if you want

Zedi · 03-14-11, 02:06 PM

God damn pshop plugin, its still blocking my saves... need to install pain.net just for this job

Bout the escorts, do as much as you can and I take the rest. Its still long way to go at me now that I insert images too :|

Trevally. · 03-14-11, 02:09 PM

Yes

I had a good system going by the end

I did have one issue.

DD A & B share the same folder and cfg file but have differant .sil files

I made 1 AIT file that had the info for both.
When you look at SOAN - all info shows for the A type only

Do you need any help with the ones you are doing

Zedi · 03-17-11, 05:00 AM

Very nice Trevally. Tbh, I was afraid to jump into escorts, is not my favourite part at all.

Im done with capital ships, carriers.. working on the merchants. I really wanna finish all today, Im sick of it already, then we merge all and [REL] it. Luck that we are doing this for SH5, no way to do this job for SH3 or 4.

There is still one thing that confuse me... at LARGE STEAMER I have a Liberty ship sil and I cannot figure out why. Its only me? What ship suppose to be shown at Large Steamer?

TDW, any news on Library app?

What is the sea folder name for the large steamer

Zedi · 03-17-11, 05:55 AM

NKL, its a clone but it shown ingame as Large steamer. Dunno what 2 think.. is my Sea folder somehow corrupted?

Trevally. · 03-17-11, 06:08 AM

The NKL and the NLL use the same 3d model. (so must use same sil)
The have differernt specs though.
Length, width height and draft are all the same due to same model.
Speed & Displacement are different as is the equipment file.

When you lock on and ID in game - the cfg file is read, thus giving different names so we can tell them apart.

So when you add an AIT file to the NKL and NLL folder - this will show the correct information in the SOAN. This is true for all the clones.

Are you saying the the models in game look different?

Zedi · 03-17-11, 02:42 PM

Im saying that in SOAN the title says Large Steamer, but the picture is a Liberty cargo. I know it should be something different than Liberty, maybe the C1-S-B cargo.. but not sure which one, thats why I ask.

Im done with my part, this is the last point I need to resolve. So anybody.. pls look at the Large Steamer in the rec on manual and tell me what ship it is there. If is a clone, is a clone of what? Because cant be a clone of Liberty.. thats not a steamer.

Trevally. · 03-17-11, 06:16 PM

Just tested both ships in a mission.
They are the same. The Steamer is a clone of the Liberty.

So the sils must be the same otherwise it would not look like the model.

Zedi · 03-18-11, 03:12 AM

That is wrong, Liberty is not a large steamer.. clone or not. I will take a look into this this weekend, but for now HERE is the complete Sea folder with the additional info, including what Trevally did. The only incomplete file is the one for the Large steamer.

Is JSGME ready, overwrite any mod on conflict. Is open for test and feedback.
