After having used SH3 Cmdr with this current install, do I have to completely reinstall SH3 again? Because I cannot load any patrols with any of the new addon files (No Fatigue, 16km, or Stock Repair). Just so you know, I am not loading game with SH3 Cmdr, and it doesn't matter if I use the addons one at a time or 2 at a time.

Sorry to be a pain

I don't think you need to re-install the game, uninstall SH3 Commander (look if it is pointing to SH3 with WAC.

After that, download (for free) http://www.ccleaner.com/ and clean your registry.

Use JSGME and disable all add-on mods. Start WAC sh3.exe.

I suppose this will do the job!

Sometimes the problem is that you forgot to rollback sh3 files on sh3 commander prior to enabling the new mods.

Same here, rolled back Sh3cmndr and reinstalled WAC4.1, now the 16km mod gives me CTDs in new careers.. I will reinstall to fix it hopefully.

Ok, so WAC 4.1 Rafael Stock Repair Times No Fatigue works after I unistalled Cmdr and cleaned and optimized the registry. 16km seems to be the only thing left to fix as far as the XP version is concerned.

Of course there is also the SH3 Cmdr problem, but hopefully Hans or Jaesen will be able to find a solution in the future.

Thanks Rafael- engine guages etc all at 12 o clock, but at least I am not the only one!

Hope Han or someone can sort this one out.

The other thing I noticed tonight was that if you lock up a ship moving towards you (auto targeting), the range increases instead of decreases!

You can reset it each time by unlocking and then locking again, but once locked, it keeps increasing even if the ship is still coming towards you!

Thanks

the 16km mod is ok !

resize the nori01 and especially the nori00 to 1024x1024 (now they are 2048x2048) .if you start a career in port with cloudy sky there is the problem for the ctd

Default 16k atmosphere WAC 4.1

16k atmosphere with xp version works fine for me every time with no CTD.

I did not use jsgme, just dropped the data file into the SH3 game file and it takes effect for me ok.

For me too! Actually it wonders me that people get CTD from this mod because I never had this and never heard of this... these files only do change the atmosphere and have no relation to other files which could lead to CTD.

Nevertheless... quite weird what you experience!

This idea works as far as fixing the CTD, but it changes the tga to where it removes the colors and is now black & white. Before I resized the Nori00, the tga file was a bright blue color and white, the after it turned black & white.

After

Yes, after resizing to 1024, it seems to work for me too. So thanks for pointing that out Makman Though I'm curious why this is the fix, since GWX 16km has those files as 2048x2048, running without problems on my XP.

Anyway, Tuddley, you have to resize them with a graphics program like Gimp, send me a pm with you email, I can attach the files if you need..
