Convoy routes hard coded on background Map

[Fubar2Niner]

@Sheppard and Johnfb

I found this "Convoy-Routes on Map - BL!TZKR!EG Edition" on a german site, Sheppard I'm sure it's your original after looking at the readme. I quote;

WHAT IS THIS?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Convoy-Routes on Map is a minor, but useful and simple change to SH3 1.4b stock-
data. It is formerly known as SH3MapConvoys but the file I found contained no
credits of the person who made all this and not further text.

Fellow KL kept asking for this file and since the original version was NOT com-
patible with JSGME I added "data" and "documentation" paths.


WHAT DOES IT ADD TO THE GAME AND HOW DO I USE IT?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
It adds convoy-routes to the main map. Just activate it with JSGME and enjoy.


LAST CHANGE:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
20131017 Now JSGME-compatible.

Next question:

Does stock SH3 and GWX etc actually provide increased traffic in the aforementioned traffic zones?

Interesting question. I wouldn't be surprised to find that the map provided with SH3 was always more immersive than anything.

I don't know what is on that map. Would be great is someone could make a screenshot.

You can load the scripted and random campaign files (use the files from the merged campaign mod to see all of it) in the campaign/scenario editor. GWX makes the Atlantic look like a bowl of spaghetti. With clear patterns of spaghetti strings moving in certain directions.

My experience with playing GWX and checking some stuff with the mission editor is that the scroll dow map, as with most intelligence, should be treated with pinch of salt.

I just wanted to let everyone know that the blitzkrieg mediafire download link is infected with a trojan virus. . Be careful with it.

[scott_c2911]

Could anyone tell me what software they would use to edit the .raw file themselves. I'm not keen on the font change. I downloaded from the link on the first page of the thread. Tried it with JSGME and its overwritten the english nav map mod and the Type IXB U-123 skin mod. The nav map overwrite I can understand but the IXB skin being affected I cant understand so I tried the link on the second page and bam MSE picks up a trojan. I then copied and pasted the file manually using the first one I downloaded. I backed up the original of course!
It looks fairly simple to do but I haven't had any success using so called .raw viewers, converters and editors. They just don't open the file. Any advice would be apreciated.

[Johnfb]

I use photoshop for all tga files I make and it can be used for .raw too if you have it


This any use

I dont know I clicked on the correct download icon and MSE showed that it was cleaning my computer almost immediately. I clicked on MSE to see what it was doing and it said it had cleaned a trojan. I will have another go now as I could possibly have clicked the wrong link? The virus hasn't done any damage so I'm not all that bothered having another go.

[scott_c2911]

It was definitely the right link as I have just downloaded it with no issues. Strange but thankyou very much none the less. To anyone else reading this thread ignore my last posts.
