[TEC] Ship mods like Bismarck not in ATO

I've got the one for Sh4V1.5 from the thread directly below last page. It's made for a fresh install of 1.5
Is there another prefered Bismarck made for the ATO type mods? I'm about to give this one a try on a fresh Dark Waters installation but I'm betting it will default to the indian/pacific if it works at all.

whoever made the Bismarck playable would have to build/edit starting points in Flotillas.upc. Check out that file for entry points. or CareerStart.upc.

I looked at the copy of the mod I have in my collection, and the v1.2 of the mod is indeed meant for Stock SH4 v1.5 which will put you in the Far East in 1943. Bismarck1011 also made an Admiral Scheer for OpMonsun, and that should be around somewhere. It might follow a more "historical" trail for the ship... You could use that mod to copy the Bismarck itself into the mod and have them both. The technique used to get playable ships is to make them "submarines" that can't dive, unless you manage to get a bunch of holes punched into them...

Yeah, I took on a British task force off the coast of Australia with a couple King George BB's in it and I became a submarine ONCE! Thanks i'll look around for that one.
