I'm glad it worked for you, but in my case it didn't.

Hello Han

I have been working with NGT about problems with ctd in version 4.0, and I have found a German word (in Red) in the file below (which I understand is ss in English), so maybe this is not helping and needs to be changed.
NB I have installed 3.1 then 4.0 before finding this-

[UnitClass]
ClassName=KMSSHansa
UnitType=102
AppearanceDate=19190101
DisappearanceDate=19470101
DisplayName=GE Medium Hansa Freighter
[Unit 1]
Name=Weißenfels
DOC=19190101
DOD=19470101
[Unit 2]
Name=Kybfels
DOC=19190101
DOD=19470101

Thanks

An old Community Unit ship!! they are all working in GWX for me!
Cant understand this!! I will check asap!

Still not working for me! but i will crack it!!

Going through each unit line by line! the only error's that have thrown up for me so far seem to be with icebergs and the new campaign_lnd.mis!

1 Ship is all it takes though! could be as simple as an added space in a line in a CFG file!

ok

On my 3rd patrol

Hm.. sounds buggy somehow.
I don´t have these messages when going into the ME.
Did you copy an old cmapaign file into the mod or use WAC3.0 and WAC4.0?
Remember you only have to use WAC3.1 and then WAC4.0 on SH3 with patch 1.4b.

Just a some observations.
Benham Class Destroyer got some really strange characters in the information when viewing in museum.
unconfirmed : load some t2 torps pre war makes a ctd.

I tought it had a bug since I was sent to the same patrol grid on my 3rd patrol. Boy I was wrong. I landed right in the escape shipping lane from Gdansk. Is this the Baltic campaign ? I watched a warship hammer a merchant , some stukas bomb some ships. No wonder why many warships and u-boats was heading the same way as my patrol grid from Kiel.

Looks like all the graphics has been redone to a higher level. Inside the sub I guess there are only a few places that don't have been redone.

Details all over the place. Just to mention some of them. Bow spray,wake, water reflection, animations when you use your deckgun, explosion when you hit a merhcant with your deckgun. UZO is gone when you are under water. Lots of new buildings, ships harbours. Man this mod must have taken months to make or even years. All those details. Did I say details again ? (take a breath) yhea details.

I love the spot you have on the conning tower. Very good position to have full control and view. And a very nice touch is that not all the crew has the same uniform/outfit. Brings the game a little bit more alive.

Some pictures coming soon.
I can't tell you how it is compared to GWX because I haven't tested that one out yet, but from stock sh3 to this one is like two diffrent games.
I feel very lucky that I can enjoy it and bad for those that can't get the mod to work.

Ok, whats the deal with the periscope/uzo problem I have. It only happens when I enable something over WAC. Disable everything except WAC 3.1 and WAC 4.0, and it works fine.

Could it have something to do with commands_en, and what are those commands_en11 files about ?

Here is a list of other mods I enabled :

WarAceCampaign 3.1_final_FULL
WarAceCampaign 4.0 Update
CapZapEmblemsPack_Final
Black Torps
Venatore's Black Slick Torpedo Mod
Clean Confirmation Menu (Brown)
Das Realistic Food
Officers_Faces_by_THORN
Tuddley's Diesel Engine Mod
Blue Night Filter
Flecktarn Camouflage U-Boat Uniform
Flecktarn Protective Helmet Cover
Test Head
IIA U-Boat Flecktarn Camouflage
Water mix V2
Tuddley's Hotkeys - its not this, because I tried without it, and still no periscope/uzo views
Periscope Sounds
TheBestSonarPing

Thanks,
Tudds

Hi Tuddley

Are you running yours on vista or xp?

Tuddley3 · 05-30-09, 02:11 PM

I have XP

robbythesub · 05-30-09, 03:24 PM

I thought thats what you were going to say!

Does XP have a German alphabet in it? (since Vista does not seem to read any German symbols)

Hello Robby,
install xp ,
then do a FRESH new install of a patched (1.4) sh3
then copy (i suggest not to use jsgme) the files of wac 3.1
then run wac4 and you will be fine
(i really don't see the point of having vista (ok,you will 'lose' some ram)....it seems that vista was a fault of microsoft)

bye

I was thinking about that. I would really like to get WAC running, so I can enjoy my new GeForce card.

Hi Guys

If only it were that simple! Xp cant be bought now can it?

Also, it seems a lot of problems, but I agree it may sort out the problem for running wac.

There are so many German symbols even in the vista version of wac- I have found hundreds!

Does anyone know if it would be simpler to somehow put these symbols into vista so that the system can read them within the program?

Maybe that would solve all problems!
