[REL] Ship Names April 2012

Sailor Steve · 04-01-12, 01:05 PM

Yes, it's back! I was updating the Ship Names files every month, when exactly a year ago my computer got hit by a virus. It made my entire desktop disappear, so I had to reapply all the icons I had there. I started with the Ship Names mod, then found out that nothing was lost - they had merely been converted to Hidden files. Unfortunately I had already replaced the Ship Names files with ones from February, which means I lost two months' work. I was so frustrated that I just quit doing it.

After ten months off I got the bug again (not the virus, but the sickness that makes us do weird things) and picked up where I had left off. So now, exactly one year after the last update, is a new Ship Names list.

Thanks to redoing those two months' worth of work, I've only added 21 new names for a total of 11795. I probably redid 500 in the process.

As always, load directly into SH3 Commander/Cfg and overwrite the old one.

Hello Sailor Steve, what means please "MV"? I sunk "MV Surprise".

bigboywooly · 04-06-12, 07:47 AM

Motor Vehicle as opposed to Steam Ship or SS

Basically means ship is oil powered not coal

As BBW rightly states.

I give you my last MV...she was scrapped in 99 IIRC

MV Cedarbank

Well, almost. It means "Motor Vessel", which is a small thing, but more importantly it means the ship is powered by diesel engines, not steam. Some sources call the MS or M/S for "Motor Ship", and some even sort them out by type, i.e. "Motor Tanker".

Dammit knew vehicle wasnt the right word but mind went blank

Of course tis a vessel

Cheers Steve
