I didn't add any adidtional mines from what were already present, primarly due to time constraints. I did however, increase the effectiveness of existing minefields.

Lt commander lare · 01-17-08, 10:12 PM

can you tell me where the existing minefields are

thanks lt commander lare

Just use the mission editor and open data/campaigns/campaign/JP_minefield.mis, that will tall you all you want to know.

What was fun, was deliberatly setting them all on the surface in the editor, so i could physically see how many there were spawning in a given area.

I wanted to make it even more dense then they are now! But i remember there being rendering and slowdown issues in SH3 when minefields were too thick, so i was much more conservative then i wanted to be.

To give you an idea, if i remember right,
-old density was about 1 mine per 1sq km.
-New density is about 5 mines per sq km,

i wanted to make it 15 mines per 1 sq km, but didn't.

I wish that there was a sound file on the net to hear the "chilling gong" noise.

oh that would be "fun"....a mine field mapping mission.....bring plenty of Xanax for the frayed nerves.....:rotfl:

I just finished reading that little story in Silent Victory.....man those guys were something else...

Want to hear something sad? I was digging around in the US sensor files.

There is an FM sonar and a broomstick in there. But how to get them working is beyond me at the moment.

edit:

I take tha back about the FM sonar, the models there, and i got a boat equiped with one. There is an UNUSED hydrophone node, slap it in, and i have an FM sonar head on my main deck.

The trick will be to get all these hydrophones to work in concert with one another.

Ducimus...your having way to much fun...
