[REL] Nav Map Make-Over Add-ons

Nav Map Make-Over Add-ons 1.1

This update removes the BigMap.dds files. I've removed them for two reasons. First is because I didn't get them lined up properly, so the star showing where you need to sail to in your mission briefing is way out of place. While I did figure out how to fix that, the second reason I deleted them is because in order to get them to the proper size (2048x1024) I have to blow up the image used, and it just doesn't look good. While the stock file doesn't match the NMMO, it still looks better.

These are three add-on mods for the Nav Map Make-Over v2.1 mod. These are:

NMMO Maps Add-on

This changes the Map_Strategic.dds file (both high and low resolution versions) so the maps inside the subs will now match the NMMO map. Like this:

NMMO Reverse Ocean Colors Add-on

As the name suggests, this reverses the ocean colors used in NMMO, so they will look like this:

Most navigation charts use this method of deep water being light colored, and shallower being darker, so this makes the maps more historically accurate. It also allows you to more easily see those tiny light colored islands at certain zoom levels because they're surrounded by darker water now. This add-on includes reverse ocean versions of the Map_Strategic.dds files as well.

NMMO Pre Pearl Harbor Career Start Add-on

This add-on changes the entry date of the one Formosa based Japanese air base in the optional NMMO Air Base Add-on. This will prevent Manila based boats from being attacked before December 7th when beginning a career using my Pre Pearl Harbor Career Start mod. This should ONLY be used if you're using the NMMO Air Base Add-on, and must be installed AFTER it and whichever version of the Pre Pearl Harbor Career Start mod you're using.

Install using JSGME.
