Admiral Scheer/Graff Spee playable for Operation Monsun! - Page 3

OK

I completed a detailed code review of this mode. It's going require a "major" rewrite to work with OM. Approximately 60 to 70% of the current files "break" OM out the box. It will require some "reverse-engineering" to figure out the best way to get them work with OM and in some cases the existing files ( library related ) would have to scrapped and new re-designed files created. I estimated a "minimum" two weeks ( 5 hours per day ) to complete this project.

The bottom line this, I currently don't have the time to work on this as I'm way behind schedule on my current list of projects.

I will see what a can schedule, but won't be any time soon

Admiral Scheer for OM v100

This mod allows Xantro “Playable Pocket Battleship” run on top of OMv715 and is based on a original idea by Sledgehammer427

Install Instructions:

Without OMEGU v210:

Stock SH4 v15
OMv705
OMv705 to OMv715
OMV715 Patch 1
OMv715 Hotfix 1
AS_for_OMv100

With OMEGU v210

OMv705
OMv705 to OMv715
OMV715 Patch 1
OMEGUv210
OMEGUv210 Hotfix3
AS_for_OMv100

Special note: AS_for_OMv100 has “ALL” the OM/OMEGU hotfixes rolled into them.

This mod covers the period from Sept 1940 to Dec 1943 and has the Admiral Scheer assigned to two distinct areas to mimic historical operations, “Group West” (Sept 40 to Feb 42) conducting operations in the North / South Atlantic and “Group Nord” ( Feb 42 to Dec 43). The dates used for these operations are “semi-historical” and are a bit longer that real life for gameplay purpose. Home base for “Group West” is Gotenhafen in Poland with a start date of September 1st 1940 and Narvik for “Group Nord” with a start date of March 1st 1942. If you start a career with “Group West” you will receive a “automatic” transfer to “Group Nord” in Feb 42 ( there will be a message that informs you of the transfer )

There have been a large number of changes to the original mod by Xantro to ensure the smooth integrations into OM. In some cases files where removed and in other case the original file was replaced by new files.

Here are some of the main changes

“Periscopes” have been disabled and all targeting for the 11inch guns will be through the UZO.

Damage model has been completely been rebuilt to be and act a little more realistically . The only area that is “below” the water line is the “engine room” so in the “Systems control” window that is the only area where you will see flooding in.

Added “real world” radar and RWR equipment (FuMO 22/27, FuMB4 Sumatra and FuMB7 Timor)

Director with the FuMO radars, now “rotates” (This is based on an original by tater)

Thank you! D/LING NOW

Thank you Lurker! I'm going to try it this evening!

P.S: This mod could be modified as well? It looks very interesting, but unfortunately we cant play the campaign with it (auxiliary cruiser KMS Pinguin). Could you give a look at it?

I will think about it. But now I most get back to work on my current project which is three weeks behind schedule.

ivank · 10-07-09, 07:11 AM

Would this project be an new addition to OM?

Sledgehammer427 · 10-07-09, 10:14 AM

Link added to the first post.
I hope you don't mind that I am also mirroring the download on my mediafire page, Lurker. If you do, I'll take it down asap.

ivank · 10-07-09, 03:34 PM

I'm loading it now!

ivank · 10-07-09, 04:17 PM

No, it is an add-on only

ivank · 10-07-09, 04:19 PM

Okay still I can not wait!

ivank · 10-07-09, 04:28 PM

Never mind me, I opened the wrong OM install.

Sledgehammer427 · 10-07-09, 04:29 PM
