[REL] Merchant Fleet Mod for Silent Hunter 3

iambecomelife · 06-07-10, 08:11 PM

I discovered several possible sources for CTD's - the first patch will be on its way soon.

Ok , I admit I can not figure it out , may be my old age.

I can not remember the correct format to enable the MFM ships in SH3 Commander to get the names working.

Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.

Von Harris,

This uses the Date folders in SH3 Commander. The easy way to explain it is to send you the SH3 Commander JSGME ready mod I set up for this. You can then see how I set this up by looking at it...it is ready to use as is and saves you a bit of manual work. If you have a drop box account I can upload the file to you directly...it is to big to send as a gmail attached file.

PM me if you want the file.

By all means add the Ships Names list to SH3 Commander that Sailor Steve created and gave you a link to below in his post. It really adds to MFM

To get the most out of the MFM you might also want to try this.

Thank you both Sailor Steve and Kelly621.

You saved me a lot of trouble.

I knew I could depend on the community.
And now off to work , I will add pennant numbers to all these warships in there.

I will let you know when it will be over

How and where does one add this shipnames.cfg file to SH3 and/or SH3 Commander?

Does it replace EnglishNames.cfg in the sea folder or does it go into the cfg folder in SH3 Commander?

Detailed instructions would be nice. Thanks.

From the bottom of the Download page for the mod:

"As always, just insert this into the SH3 Commander/CFG
folder and overwrite the old one.

("As always, just insert this into the SH3 Commander/CFG
folder and overwrite the old one.)

I removed and saved the original "Ship Names.cfg" folder and then inserted the mods' "Ship Names.cfg" folder into Commander's CFG directory. Sorry, but this did not work for me. Where did I go wrong?

Should I have left the original "Ship Names.cfg" folder alone and just inserted the mod folder into the CFG directory? Would these two folders have combined data maybe and worked? Please be more specific; thanks.

Also, where is there a skins mod to go into Commander that will make the MFM ships change as the years progress? I've heard of one but can't seem to find it.
