Sh3Gen updates and discussion

Contrary to what I said to irish about adding a scale, I just realized that it is not really needed, as there are measuring tools in the viewer that are jolly good.

All you have to understand is that 1 unit in the viewer = 1 degree = 60 NMiles = ~ 111 kilometers. Got it?

Adding a scale / meridians / geographical place names are things which I might do in the future, but then only for the eye candy ..

This is truly amazing what you have done with this already perfect program you have for us, but now I cant wait to try this new concept out. How you guys think of this stuff, is beyond me, but am glad you spend your own time to perfect an already almost perfect game. You shall expect a new signature graphic just for this occasion, you are a true friend to all of us, keep up your great work

Thanks Tuddley! Consider yourself a "gold" customer from now on No more queing or carrying bags for you, sir.

Anyone has used the mod somewhat? Can it be used to have more interesting patrols??

I ask because for me the excitement was the data processing, and the techniques involved, not actually using it so much. Most of that stuff is a by-product of learning new things for my work. You could say I got carried away a bit. Moreover, offering free tools for computer games is an excellent way to get your stuff tested in RL, worldwide, for free, so I think it's a win win situation.

It will be very interesting to see if combining that GIS stuff with computer simulations has a future or not. I find it exciting, but I could imagine it's too much for many people. As it's used extensively by the military, it should have it's place with any type of military simulation. But then, many people want games, not simulations. We will see ..

I've had it installed for a couple of patrols now and I gotta give it a big
I am very impressed and quite happy to state it has enhanced my enjoyment (if that were possible) of playing GWX
