Old dog needing new tricks

Hi to every one!

I have been totally immersed in the GWX 3.0, gold plus SH Commander experience for a few years now and I can't praise it enough

However, I recently purchased a new widescreen monitor and have been trying out a couple of mods with varying degrees of success and some frustrations.
I almost had it perfect using the Conus mod but I had to give up because the flags appeared upside down or back to front - very noticeable when the swastika is reversed

Does anybody know if a mod/patch has been created to fix this? I have gone back to my original set-up for now, it is far better than SH 5. I bought the collector's edition, installed it, dumped it in disgust and it is lying on the shelf until some miraculous mod appears

Good Hunting!

Hi Privateer, Frau, and others

Just coming back after a break from SH3, and wondering if there was a fix found for this steaming whilst pretending to sink issue whilst I was gone. I can't find anything, so thought I'd better ask.

Cheers,

So Simple to increase Renown in SH3\GWX 3.0

Documents\SH3\Data\Cfg\Careers\Kplt Name\Patrpl _"X",Patrol, and Career_"X" and Career.

In both Patrols change lines "Delta Renoun" To any numericial number amount you want say, 50,000

In both Careers change lines "Renoun" To any numerical number amount say,50,000.

It's that simple. ps. Backup Career Folder.

Can't believe it. Still no go;
I installed the geme, then GWX, activated the mods vie JSGME,
then installed SH3 Commander and extracted the config files for it.
On top of everything I set preferable options in SH3 Commander, clicked "tick" button and... no reaction, NO NOTHING.
Waht possibly could go wrong?
What else should I do?

What do you mean by "RN" files?

RN Subs I take to mean Royal Navel Subs?

That's a job done by editing the Campaign files to remove.

Here we go, but beware that you are playing with the campaign files which could lead to CTD and it's not an easy/quick fix:
  • Go to C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\GWX\data\Campaigns\Campaign
  • Backup your Campaign_SCR and Campaign_RND files. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!
  • Right click on Campaign_RND and choose 'Open with...' Notepad.
  • UNCHECK the box which says 'always use this programme...'. ALSO VERY IMPORTANT
  • Search for 'SClass'
  • The first SClass you find will be in this block:
[RndGroup 230.RndUnit 20]
Class=SClass
Type=200
Origin=British
Side=0
CargoExt=-1
CargoInt=-1
CfgDate=19390801
No=1
Escort=false
SpawnProbability=100
CrewRating=3
  • Delete this entire entry or, if you want to track changes, put a ; in front of each line:
;[RndGroup 230.RndUnit 20] ;Class=SClass
;Type=200
;Origin=British
;Side=0
;CargoExt=-1
;CargoInt=-1
;CfgDate=19390801
;No=1
;Escort=false
;SpawnProbability=100

;CrewRating=3
  • Renumber the next entry from [RndGroup 230.RndUnit 21] to [RndGroup 230.RndUnit 20]
  • If there are any more entries after this one (RndUnit 22, RndUnit 23 etc.) then you'll either need to renumber them all sequentially or renumber the last entry to fill the gap (i.e if RndUnit 25 is the last one, renumber RndUnit 25 to RndUnit 20). If there are any gaps in RndUnit numbering then it will either CTD or not read the subsequent numbers.
  • Ctrl-S to save. ALSO IMPORTANT. Saving by another method can save the file as the wrong type.
I recommend loading a game to make sure this has worked. In order to test it, you'll have to load a game between 1 Aug 1939 and 10 Dec 1941 and if anything goes wrong you can reload your backed up copy.
You'll need to repeat this for all Sclass and Tclass entries in _RND and _SCR.

GOOD LUCK
