Default DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a + Audio Release

this mod is up under

Downloads/coldwaters/Gameplay mods



DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a + Audio


Dot Mod Custom - Abbreviations Mods Version 1.a


For ---{ DotMod.v-0.1d-beta & DotMod.v0.1e-beta }---

=========================================

as im Currently making my signature mod ive realized that their are far too many merchant tags

and some names are too long so i made this mod to identify all merchants Correctly and shorten names were needed.

=========================================

1.)------------------Changes


This Mod changes many Vessel Name Tags to shorter abbreviated ones to reduce

Contacts hud Text clipping and adds loads of new ones to replace the many Generic

Merchant Vessel Name tags

I find this greatly helps with better understanding of what contacts you have on your

map


Examples :


civ_ms_medium_tanker = Merchant


Now - civ_ms_medium_tanker = Tanker


civ_ms_roro = Merchant


Now - civ_ms_roro = RoRo


civ_ms_sl7 = Merchant


Now - civ_ms_sl7 = sl7


wp_84_ssn_victor3 = Victor III


Now - wp_84_ssn_victor3 = Victor3


usn_99_ssn_los_angeles_flt3 = Flt-3 Los Angeles


Now - usn_99_ssn_los_angeles_flt3 = Flt-3 LA


you get the idear ....


these are my own abbreviations i used to use on a few of my older mods and new ones

ive made for dotmod specifically.




2.)--------Installing


this mod requires ( DotMod.v-0.1d-beta Or DotMod.v0.1e-beta ) to be installed first

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------I RECOMMEND USING 7 Zip for the ZIP extractor -----------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.) simple put the -- DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a & DMC (ABRV - AUDIO+) Ver 1.a -- folders

in to the MODS folder so :

once you have downloaded it ---UNZIP IT THEN put the Contents of the ZIP in to the

MODS folder


this is were your cold waters EXE file is Easy way is to RIGHT CLICK on your cold

waters icon on your desktop with mouse the go to Open file location


when this is done copy the Contents of the ZIP folder so

---DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a ---
---DMC (ABRV - AUDIO+) Ver 1.a ---

into the MODS folder then Enable with JSGME


The DMC (ABRV - AUDIO+) Ver 1.a - is my ABRV + AUDIO Mod Combined


Example of JSGME MODS folder.


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

DotMod
DMC (ABRV - AUDIO+) Ver 1.a

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

ive also included a separate version not mixed with the audio for those that want the

Abbreviations Mod but not the Audio

DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a

so :

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

DotMod
DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a

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



Then Launch Cold Water as Normal

if its worked at the bottom of your screen once it launched it should say

DMC (ABRV) Ver 1.a Script Version:

or

DMC (ABRV - AUDIO+) Ver 1.a Script Version

Depending on what you used ofc.



4.)-------Help

any problems just message me on Subsim

Ship names are a lot more unique and clear now. It's gonna be a while until I get used to the merchant names.

gear link

you need to log in to their discord server to keep up with the latest events


look at the posts on subsim about DotMod for that Link


however hears the DotMod Ver D link the E version is being updated


https://github.com/Dot-M134/ColdWate...tag/v0.1d-beta

On second thoughts use this Discord DM Link for DotMod Discord Server
https://discord.gg/DrmztcDYYf


Hope this Helps
