GWX (Grey Wolves eXpansion Mod)

[nik112]

Hey Guys
I want to ask if convoy routes in gwx 3.0 its the same as stock sh3 map.
Because am patroling at DF DG DH after operation torch in Nov 42 and there are any convoys. Also i want to ask If convoys from US to USSR using the route east of Canada between Greenland and Iceland and then to Murmansk.


Cheers

You’ll have to open the last sensor.dat activated in your mod list, and give stock GWX values
Otherwise your watch crew will be blind and detect ships only very close.

After all nodes checked, not only the visual values but all the sensor values for radar and detection have to be adjusted back to GWX values.
Otherwise you will play an other mod than GWX! (Sometimes 2/3 Km difference)

Good catch Fifi. Over the years I bet a lot of folks installed a lot of mods (especially environments)
that changed a lot of sensor settings and didn't even realize it.

Hi nik112 there are Convoys for Operation Torch in GWX ive had a look in the
Rnd Random Leyer and the Scr Scripted Leyer in the Mission Editor.









the yellow diamonds are ships/convoy spawning locations and the green circles are spawns of same Ships Convoys every 24-225 hrs with random percentages of ships within that convoy spawning.


Re Convoys to Russia would spawn from lock ewe in Scotland.

Hi all
Maybe i wasn't so clear. I'll try again. In documentation folder there is a map
showing convoy and single merchants routes. ex its a route from New York to Casablanka : ca-dd-de-dr-dg-dh. Question is if i follow this route from mid Nov 42 shall i find any convoy
or this map was made for stock sh3 and gwx using other routes?


Thanks

UGF UGS GUF GUS Convoys from 1942-1943 are all in there
Fire up the SH3 Mission editor open up the RND Random Leyer find the above Convoys

Click on those Convoys listed on the right then when they open up click on first ship in that Convoy then click on centre view it will take you to the Yellow Diamond of that Convoy then run the mission editor and see how often they spawn lots n lots of the Green Circles criss crossing the Atlantic through out 1942-1943 from Usa - North Africa.

Same for the Russian RA JW Convoys.

This GWX plane is said to have a Leigh Light, along with the Catalina and Liberator.


In looking at the .eqp files, the Catalina and Liberator have the light but not the Wellington.


Don't think I've seen it in the game; is it supposed to or am I mistaken about something ?

Change the REF_DustBin
to REF_Leigh and you'll have it.

No idea why that setting was changed that way.
There is no file with REF_DustBin in GWX.
And I can scan every file in under a minute.

I was wondering about that file, thanks Jeff !
