WPO Subchaser's mapmode

Post by Helpless »

Have converted one of my favorite in WITP(stock) Subchaser's hex mapmode to WPO:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/s6mrvu

- Removed roads in Alaska.
- Changed SF to Mare Island
- Roads in Alaska and Tasmania corrected to reflect current wpohex.dat

Map still contains industry and resources legends in the hope to see WPO with production soon [:)]. Original readme was not changed.

Also I started with Andrew mapmode conversion to WPO. It will take more time, since it requires scenario conversion as well.

Thanks very much for doing this. The AB map conversion must be a lot of work!

You are welcome! [:)]

Actually most of efforts is to convert scenarios. I made basic 1-by-1 conversion of all locations. Now I need to add extra bases. Once script are ready it is not very difficult.

From georaphical point of view. AB map already has less developed road system than WPO stock map. The only place to fix is Alaska.

I think AB map for WPO is worth the efforts, mostly because of more accurate distance across the Pacific. It might mean the change of tactics for short legged WPO naval operations.

Will resend it later today. Also finishing AB conversion to WPO.

Would be good to put it into some on permanent space, which I don't have currently :(
