I've got the bug again and will be playing for the foreseeable future. My programming/scripting experience has grown considerably since my SH2 modding days, so I may just have to give it a go again .

Right I have GWX 2 finally working fine. When I do a single mission or career the game runs fine.

However, even with the correct cfg files in the correct place for SH3Commander I always get a CTD when loading SH3 through SH3Commander. It happens before the main menu appears.

Also, extremely long load times are now occurring (Around 7-10 minutes per mission when it used to be about 3-5 on stock with a few mods). Is this normal due to the enhancements?

Aye Mate...5-7 minutes load times have been reported to be the norm on "average" systems...and can vary somewhat either way depending on what you have under the hood, (and running in the backround)..

As for the SH3 Cmdr issue..if you are sure you have the right patch files installed...can't help ya there...you'll have wait for a better guru to come along

Cool!!! Another Texan!!! Welcome Voyd!

Rotary Crewman, yessir longer loading times are normal with GWX due to the volume of added material. Hopefully, we've made it worth the wait.

On a slightly different note, around 1942, are the American Destroyer crews modelled such that they are relatively inexperienced? I've noticed it's a lot easier when being hunted by them to out-maneuver them and send a torpedo with their name on it to sink them than it is with the British crews. I wondered if they would become more elite as the war went on?

As the war progresses the escort crews gain experience and eventually become veteran and elite

:p :p :p

Speakin' fer maself... I'd be a 'steer.'

LOL, I got the same treatment in Army bootcamp. The movie "Full Metal Jacket" had just been released and basically everything out of the drill sargeant's mouths was a one-liner from that movie.

I think they sat up late at night practicing their Lee Ermie impressions.

LOL...the most loaded question I've been asked in a while. Let's see here ...I'm not the latter, so given the two options, I guess that'd make me a 'steer.' Well, a 'faux-steer'...let's just say that it wouldn't stand up in court...well maybe it would if Caladonia was called to the stand :p (my first Mel Brooks reference of the new year)!! A loaded question always deserves a loaded answer...

Take Care,

Voyd

P.S: Thanks for the welcome, Kpt. Lehmann...looks like the Texans are being flanked from all sides today...lol.

Nahhh...I just like to pull the Kpt's chain from time to time...to help keep his mind off all the other Scheiße he deals with here... day.. after day.. after day.. after...

[Rotary Crewman]

Thanks for the replies about the loading times. Glad to see I'm not alone!

I managed to sort out SH3C, I installed the suicide trawler patch and also the update for SH3C and it seems to work.

Now just need to get those ASW Trawlers to leave the freighters alone

I WISH!!! I was there for eleven weeks!

Maybe you are thinking of the Air Force. :p

Took a quick peek at the 'Navigation' tutorial - schnellboots with random camouflage; schnellboots with no camouflage...

Cool!
