[WIP] Japanese Campaign

Hey I have a question I've been using the Jyunsen B mod and "tweaked " it so you can start in 1941 and your base is Tokyo but how do you get it to start at Tokyo because my base is Tokyo but it makes me start at Penang.

It doesn't MAKE you start anywhere, it starts where you tell it to start. If you made your base Tokyo then you need to change the Departure location to Tokyo:

[Flotilla 1]
ID= Penang
NameDisplayable= Penang-Flotilla-Name
AvailabilityInterval=1943-05-01, 1945-05-31

[Flotilla 1.Base 1]
ID= F1Penang
NameDisplayable= Penang-Base-Name
Info= Penang-Base-Info
ExternalBaseName= Penang
AvailabilityInterval= 1942-02-29, NULL
DepartureDescription1= 12044763.000000, 646206.000000, 270.000000
DepartureDescriptionOut1= 12029563.000000, 621806.000000, 269.992310

You can get the coordinates from the mission editor where you put your base. They are in the bottom left of the mission editor, just put your mouse pointed where you want to start and use the first two numbers latitude and longitude, lng and lat. the third number in the DepartureDescription is the heading of your ship.

DepDescription1 is the "in port" and if you want it accurate so your sub/ship is at a dock then you will need to merge/open the Campaign.LOC (data/Campaigns/Campaign/Campaign_LOC.mis) from the US side so the docks will show, then get your numbers, write them down, and put them into the Flotilla file. You do not resave the file, just use it to get the numbers you need. The easiest way to get accurate numbers for placing a ship at a dock is to actually place a ship/sub at the dock. Then put a waypoint out in front of it lined up perfectly with the dock, set head to waypoint and then check the ship/sub properties and the heading will be filled it for you. DO NOT save it with the sub in it, only use it to get the numbers you need.

Of course I don't know how much traffic you will see starting in 1941 on the UBoat side of the game.

Thanks I'm also having some problems with the missions I modified the stock missions by moving the mission icon to the US west coast but now all it will give me is recon Fremantle when I start the games.

New thread started for this, this is not the Japanese Campaign. And you will probably get more help if it has it's own thread.

i hope this mission has some playble japan cruisers too....

Admiral Von Gerlach · 01-15-12, 08:25 PM

I can't speak for the mod makers, but I suspect that it will be a sub sim mod not a ship mod, playable cruisers were available but I think the task of completing the mod with the campaign as it is is a large enough task for the makers... Real life is demanding on us all and delays in this much looked forward to Campaign mod are very understandable. We will all just need to be patient and trust. And Happy New year to the team.

I am sorry Kimuraijn, I did not see this question until today. If people have parts of the IJN Campaign I don't know where they got them unless they happened to download some files sent to Keltos on Filefront.
