I also carry a 1 TB external with me.

.25 Beta came down from Google fine this time.
Maybe a bunch of people were DLing last nite and caused my problem.
That and a crap Motel connection.

Oh yea. I'm online early today as I told them to kiss my stinky part I'm taking half a day off!!
Emphasis on the crappy motel connection! They could be running a whizz bang Linksys WRT-54G router witn a blazing 54KB/sec speed before subtracting all the overhead. Zip! Zip!

Likewise. I was wondering the same yesterday, and almost added that in to one of my posts... max-peck, where are you?

I used to get on clients of mine about not wiping their hard drives. I'll bet you've found a few "secrets"... As for last night's DL issue, I'll bet you're correct.

Have fun RR with the updating. I'm very interested in what you're doing there. Maybe you and a couple others could start a Linux Tutorial thread, with maybe a parallel install with Windows on one hard drive (so the potential user won't get too uncomfortable), and Linux on a second hard drive, both using NTFS partitions, and then getting Silent Hunter (and other games) to run on Linux... ?? After all, it's not like you're trying to do more than a hundred things at one time...

In the sea folder\NBC_GrafSpee
Open the NBC_GrafSpee.cfg
And rename the ClassName=CADeutschland
to ClassName=BCGrafSpee

NCA_Deutschland folder still has extra files that need removed.
It's also one of the Units that needs to be converted to UnifiedRender.

In the Air folder\AFB_P38J
Delete the AFB_p38j_shp.dds
Notice there is already a AFB_P38j_shp.dds
(Note the capitol letter P!!!)

Will do on mine.

Google is down right now... in fact, we lost ALL our internet via DSL for a few minutes just now. But Google is still not found. "404. That’s an error.
The requested URL /cgi-bin/redirect.ha was not found on this server. That’s all we know."

Also not sure why the WHL.dat is in the Library?

~Don't kill Orca!~

I didn't know we had a whale in the game...

That internet issue here seems to be with Internet Explorer only. I can go anywhere I want to on FireFox, but IE11 is having some issues, and can't seem to find any of the "Search" sites...

I'm running fine here.
Well. As fine as you can on Free Motel Wi-Fi.
GWX has an animated Whale that is also scripted.
This WHL.dat has no animations nor the support files as GWX does.

No Whale in eqp files nor in mis files
Given permissions from Jimbuna (Who is STILL Chief of the Boat for GWX)
The Whale could be added and then one could examine the SH3 GWX Campaign files to script it in.

I haven't looked through all of my Alpha downloads, but it was in Alpha6, so it's been in there a while... I can't find my FotRS v1.3 folder just now, and I think I'm on the wrong computer anyway... It looks like an idea that never came to fruition...

You know that there was a big thread about Survivors in SH3 before SH4 came out.
Once SH4 came out SH3 got them from some clever Modders.


We all still refused to add the zone stuff to avoid people shooting them for giggles.

Now I believe we are beyond that and could add the proper zones to shoot anything you please.

Not sure how it will go over if someone starts a thread bragging about needless killings though.

AND before you ask the question.
YES. You can add the needed stuff to do some needless killing. Including the animations and such.
Don't ask me how I know!

So it's easy for all to see here's my work list:

1. Convert the Suspect Ships/Aircraft to UnifiedRender controller.
2. Convert the F01 Ships to FLG so they can be cloned and a flag will show.
3. Go through the guns files to eliminate duplicates.
4. Find more stuff to work on.
5. Assist in any other needed area when called on.
6. Drink beer.


Well. 6 might be number 1 depending on how the day went.

Ahoy mateys

Thanks for the concern fellas, everything is aok with me.

But I have been living with a home remodelling the last few weeks, so all my stuff (including the all important pc) is in storage

I Hope to be back in business by the end of the week.

Rest assured I have been following the thread every day on my tablet and phone, looks like everyone has been very busy. Great work everyone

I am itching to try out the new build, hopefully by Friday
