This might be what you are looking for....

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=157060

Unfortunately, the download link is to filefront, which is defunct...

I don't think I downloaded it from there... I know I found it somewhere else.

EDIT: I didn't have time to look when I posted this link, but Nexus mods only has SH4 listed in the games list....
However, qiaoyech did manage to find a backup of filefront's files online, he posted that info here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=227647

I'll dig around and see if I can find another location.

I know I had the mods somewhere on my HDD, but I've backed up so many old HDD to this new raid I'm not sure where they are hiding.... That's the problem with 8TB of storage!

The First link is for SH3...

I have both mods, for stock SH3 and GWX... they both work with SH3.

The second link I posted simply because someone found a copy of Filefronts database at Nexus mods....

The "Warship mod" may be there, or it may not.

I downloaded AND used WSM3.0 years before I got SH4...

EDIT: I just went and looked, and SH3 isn't among the games listed when I did a search...
I didn't have time to look when I put the link in my first post. Sorry about that....

This thread HW3 post a link to a list of mods...

I've seen the list, but I have yet to download anything, so I can't confirm that everything is there, or working...

You should just need to look for "U-47" as part of the name in the list, and if it is there, you should find it....
U-47 made the "Warship Mod"...

Best I can do ATM, hope it helps.

gotta run...

Chinese Warship mod is good, but you actually can`t save the game during the patrol. You can actually (save) but if you try to load the game, you get CTD.

Sorry for the delay, my schedule has been a bit crazy lately...

All I can suggest is that you keep trying... I've seen similar responses from a server before when there are several people logged in at the same time.

It is quite possible that there were several others logged in (and possibly downloading) at the same time you tried. And the maximum number of connections had been reached.

In that situation it would not allow you to connect.

I'll keep my eyes open for any other download locations I can find.
If I run across any I'll post a link in this thread.

I noticed this also. Best I could do is short "sprints" to the coast, or into the English Channel. Kept the game short enough to be played in one attempt.

However, I thought it was because I was running SH3 through Linux.
I can ONLY saved submerged, not surfaced. Although I NEVER had any of the bugs/glitches with uncontrolled diving, etc.
I can literally save in a harbor with multiple DDs looking for me, and the game will load fine every time. (The docked ships sometimes move a bit, occasionally getting "stuck" in the dock.)
As long as I saved submerged.


However, if it isn't loading at all, it may have something to do with the fact that ALL the main guns on all the warships only have a M01 node in the .dat file.
For example, the Type 34 Destroyer has 5 main turrets, on the AI controlled ships, these are numbered M01, M02, M03, M04, & M05. But on the playable Type 34, they are all numbered M01.
Probably confuses the game on load and leads to the crash.
