http://rapidshare.de/files/26187479/How_to_add_ports_and_naval_bases.rar.html

Let me know how easy you think it is to follow

Its 10mb but thats because of the pics - as they say worth a 1000 words

Does anyone have this tutorial and can upload it again?? The links for it in this thread have gone dead.
finally started tinkering myself with the editor after reading this and like threads and trying to populate the u.s. east coast. any help would be appreciated.

bigboywooly · 09-18-06, 04:49 PM

Well best of luck

Its a learning process
One of these days I will update it - when time and GWX permits

Have fun and remember to back up your files first

SquareSteelBar · 09-19-06, 09:48 AM

Hi Wooly,

a long time ago I did a small sized *.pdf file of your tutorial for those who have only an analogous connection to the web [like me]. I uploaded it to rapsh* but meanwhile it was deleted because of no dl.
So I loaded it up again:

(last one-okay two questions) in this matter

1. From looking at the loactions cfg-i've seen there is only a few "base" files for towns, industries,cities such as "Kiel, Wilhelmshaven, Portland_city, Industry, City_Fr_Gr, etc).

Is there anywhere in the game files, documentaion, or this forum where it gives the distance size of the "town terrain"?? For Example: City_Fr_Gr will be 10km across within the editor and game or so on. That way you can use the measuring tool within the editor to place town files together to make a continuos fit and not worry about overlapping onto other terrain or water.

2. Related--I'm experimenting with trying to place AA emplacements on top of the sub pens by adjusting the height of it's placement in the editor.

Does anyone already know the height value for a sub pen in meters when placed on the water?? It would save me a lot of testing (of placing at certain height the emplacement then loading the game to see results then adjusting over and over) so it would mesh and not hang in mid air.

bigboywooly · 09-29-06, 08:21 AM

1, Well thats one thing I wish there was - save making a single mis to have a look everytime :rotfl:
If you press "o" in mission ed it will render the shoreline more accurate - helps a little

2, :hmm: not tried that so cant answer

Does anyone know where I can get this tutorial now?

The links in this thread do not seem to work.

Or does anyone have some other information on how to add naval bases etc?

Thanks

Ridley

The links don't work because dedicated hosting sites require that you update the files from time to time or they take them down.

As to the tutorials, I've never thought about it because the canals all come stock with the major supermods nowadays. As for making bases, there are members who know how to do that. Hopefully one of them will volunteer to help.

If anyone has a copy of those tutorials, please PM me so we can get them up here.

[edit] Oh, look what I found right here on Subsim! Not poking fun at you, ridley; I didn't know myself. It doesn't seem to be the one you wanted, but it's a start.
