[WIP] Campaign files for VonDos' ships

[Wreford-Brown]

Thanks for release, but I didn't like this part I saw in readme: You may therefore sometimes see two of the same ship in a convoy as the random scripting would call for two of the original liners. e.g. it is entirely possible that you may see two Queen Elizabeth's in the same convoy if it has randomly spawned.

That's the way the ships are designed and the way that you would see them if you enabled them but didn't use my mod.

When the random script calls for two liners you may see two of the same type, but I've only seen this once and only with an Italian liner. It is, however, a possibility so I thought I'd include the possibility in the Readme.

BTW, thank you for reading the Readme - most people don't!

[Wreford-Brown]

I've only seen it once and that was an Italian convoy. Try the mod and if you come across the same you can then disable the mod.

The same will happen regardless of whether you have the mod enabled or not - you'll just end up with two Troop ships or Chatham-type troop ships rather than named units.

I've received permission from Mikhayl to add a couple of his ships to this mod so the number of ships is currently up to 22 from the original 19. Testing is ongoing but the mod appears stable with just one ship still to find.

I've also sent PMs to a few ship makers to ask permission to add their ships to this mod and script their creations into the campaign. If permission is received it should allow the total number of ships to exceed 30.

Watch this space...

Keep up the good work WB!

AH_Thor's Churruca:



There may be some debate about the Churruca - those who've been around for a while will understand. I fully believe that this is work done by AH_Thor before he took things a little too far. If anyone knows differently or would like the Churruca removed they should PM me.

Wow - how did I miss this one?
Outstanding work Wreford-Brown.
Am starting a new career this weekend, so this will make an excellent addition.

Rowi58 and yamatoforever have kindly agreed to allow me to use some of their ship models - Rowi58 created them for SH4 and yamatoforever converted them to SH3.

The number of ships in this mod has now grown from 19 to 25 and I'm still waiting for a couple of ship builders to get back to me.

It is really great news!

Good Stuff WB

When can we expect the rest of the ships? (so far I have counted 18 without the Titanic and the Q Ship) Am I missing something?

[Wreford-Brown]

I'm waiting for two permissions. One is for a single warship, the other for three merchants and a warship.

I'll update the first thread with the list of 29 approved ships so far.
