Errors on the map

[Hans Hansen]

Hi everyone,

there are so many errors on the map, I can't stand it any longer. I'd like to fix them myself.

Do I have to use the goblin-editor or can I use any image-editor?
And where is the map hiding? Can't find it...

Any hints?

ps. oh, and I'd like the external camera somewhere abeam when activated and not astern. How would I do that?

hello

i can't remember where i found this,but here is how to fix camera
i did not figure this out....just passing info along

------------------------------------------------------------------

I have been successfully using the exterior camera, cycling between my U-Boot and other ships, like in SH3/SH4.

Like Sergei pointed out in the other thread, the key is to go into free exterior camera by "F2" first. Once outside your U-Boot you can cycle through, zoom & "ride alongside" the ships in the neighborhood, like in SH3 & SH4 with the keys assigned to "Camera on next unit" and "Camera on prev unit".

I made following (coloured) changes in my Commands.cfg, which gives me above views by pressing "Shift >" and "Shift <".

[Cmd50]
Name=Camera_on_next_unit
Contexts=1,15
Key0=0xBE,s,">"
Page=0x34000000,3714

[Cmd51]
Name=Camera_on_prev_unit
Contexts=1,15
Key0=0xBC,s,"<"
Page=0x34000000,3714

I return to the 1st person view by pressing "F4" (Avatar), which in default Commands.cfg is

[Cmd117]
Name=Avatar
Contexts=1,14,15
Key0=0x73,,"F4"

If you get stuck
Sometimes I get stuck outside the sub and cannot return by simply pressing "F4". One reason for this might be that I went straight into "next unit" forgetting to press "F2" first. To get out of this situation I press "Shift U" (Get Avatar unstuck), which in default Commands.cfg is

[Cmd584]
Name=Get_avatar_unstuck
Contexts=1,14,15
Key0=0x55,s,"Shift+U"

This usually has helped me get back on the bridge and for example switch between Binocular and UZO etc., and continue without problem.

Do you mean the world map?
That's in Data >> Terrain >> Maps >> Map1 and Map2
And the HUGE Terrain file: Data >> Terrain >> Data >> TerrainData.BFD

They're in a .raw format and I don't think they were ever even meant to be modded.

This whole system is so crypt that I feel that Ubisoft never intended it to be modded

Thanks for the info. In the meantime I found that someone else has been so kind to fix most of the errors. -> http://tinyurl.com/3aygn58
