Lektion I

Navigation map contacts

The red. Green And blue ships.


Yes i am playing this from stock imagine....

This feature makes:

Ships appear where they never will in the mis files
And adds life to the game.

So instead of using the too big ( over packet in supermods, make the game load long)(that's unnessesery info)mis files where the ships have always the same course I use this feature it adds a lot of shipping almost everywhere.


And about the colour and realism:

Actually it's also intelligence report. The Reich had agents all over the world also england

I have a modded stock install campaign going that I'm really enjoying.

Here's what I've added to a stock install:

ImprovedConvoys (with it's campaign.rnd file changed so all crewrating=2 up to 3 and all crewrating=3 up to 4. Also increased ships and escorts by 50% in all convoys and made all escorts 100% spawn probability.).
DD_OH_V3.09_20091209162038 (Diving Duck's interior mod).
Scope zoom level fixes - DDucks camera file (just changed the scopes to 1.5x and 6x power, binos and uzo changed to historical standards too).
Airpower 1.4c
Leigh light mod (only in the SH3 Commander date folder actually).
Rub fatigue
Anvart_Stiebler_TurmsR01R02
Cam ship files (this adds the NYGM cam ships and wolfpacks to a few convoys. Also has NYGM's MAD Catalina and Avenger added to the campaign.scr file).
water (this is just the stock 8k env that I made with slightly darker night water surface)
MFM-Improved (skins added to SH3 Commander date folder).
Supplement to V16B1 (JSGME)
Stiebler4C_Addon_for_V16B1
SH3Speech
Air (using NYGM (GWX's works good too) zone and airstrike.cfg files and added GWX's Hudson airplane. Also modded all the squadrons so only one plane attacks at a time.).

Also have various minor graphical, gui and speech mods added. Some require editing the 1024_768.ini file.

In the latest campaign, I'm three patrols in. First, got just over 14k tonnage mostly via a convoy that a wolfpack decimated right when I was attacking. I had to retreat just before firing as an escort had spotted me (night) but I had the last laugh as one of the wolfpack subs sank the escort ! I was then able to recontact the convoy for an attack.
Second patrol was aborted shortly after leaving port due to diesel engine problems. Third, I'm a month in game-time, and am in contact with a convoy that I've shadowed for a couple game days so far.
Have sunk one ship for just under 4k tons from this convoy, but have been driven off by the escorts several times too.

I've started firing all four bow torpedoes (I only use Type VII's) at one ship per attack. Reasons: in reading this was very common, it "simulates" the dud/failure/miss rates better, and helps keep sunk tonnage closer to realistic levels.

Using stock AI and sensor files.

One of the most enjoyable campaigns I've had.

Yes. That the right way.

+ Fixed winddegree

You should upload this as megamod light.

Using the 2d, limited torpedo. I always fire only one torpedo at a ship. This makes it lucrativer
To choose smaller ones as the chance to sink em
Is higher. But also makes hit difficulter.

+ Recruit always a lot of frischlinge onboard

Do you have a link for downloading this stuff.
Would like to try it and see if the simact 2016 works properly with your configuration.

+ I have all info after 1939 banned.
For ex. The convoy map info.

On the map one can only see shipping route


thx

Everything can be found here under the following names:

Improved Convoys - jasonb885
DD_OH_V3.09_20091209162038 - DivingDuck
Airpower 1.4c - Jace11
Leigh light - CCIP
Anvart_Stiebler_TurmsR01R02 - part of the Stiebler 4c patch.
Cam ship files - from NYGM, here.
MFM 3.3 - Iambecomelife
Supplement to V16B1 (JSGME) - H.sie, in the "Hardcoded Fixes" folder.
Stiebler4C_Addon_for_V16B1 - from the NYGM link above.
SH3Speech - Tomcattwo
Air - from either NYGM above or GWX here.
The various minor graphical and sound files come from various sources.

No reason for me to upload it as I didn't create any of this work, only edited it. There are pages of info. about all of these on this site. I would suggest reading them if for no other reason than to see who is responsible for creating all the great work used. Without their work, doing something like this wouldn't be possible.
Stiebler's 2016 weather file will work with any SH3 install. There are other ways to add a lot of it but I just chose files originally made using/for stock files to save from having to import a lot of files from newer work some of which would conflict with some of these.

If you're not already you should also only do any modding to your install via JSGME.

The maker of this also helped create SH3 Commander. Both of these are available at the site above under the folder named "JoneSoft".

Hope this helps.
