Hi Modders.. . !!

I play SH4 since a longer time and am not contented anyhow to me to the searching patterns.
Now is my question, how can searching pattern provide independently?

Small Pic like I it has thought to me.. .

new search pattern buttons for the HUD pannel.

In .......Data\Menu\Patterns you will find 3 single mission files which define the search patterns. They are SH3 mission files, so you will need the SH3 mission editor to edit them. You can change the waypoints to reflect the pattern you want. If you only use one search pattern button, then change number one to the way you want. If you use all three buttons, you change change any that you like. It's been attempted (i.e.

) to add more patterns, but I think the max of threee is hard coded.

Ah... thanks for the helpful Tips !!!

The Button for the HUD i have already added in the OrderBars.cfg
I would like to insert only this a searching pattern because it is more effictive as the standard from UBI.

ehmm... having some Problems with the SH3 Editor..

I Copy the 'Pattern1.mis' and open it with the Editor, moved the Waypoints and Save the File as "Pattern1.mis".
Copy the modded file into the Patterns Folder (Original Pattern1.mis exists) started SH4
and klick the Button für the Searching Pattern... but nothing happened...
No course was drawn in the map.

Unfortunately, the editor does also not very clear.

Can somebody provide by chance a searching pattern like him on top?

Edit: Problem done !
