LIVING SILENT HUNTER III EDITION 2015 - News & Download

I patched SH3.exe with the original Hsie patcher and procedures and no problem. The optional Hsie patch and files in LSH3 2015 have the problem.

Ok, ill do that. Do I still need to make the changes to menus.txt and campaign SCR?

First of all, a big THANK YOU to the dev team.

Now, a quick question: does LSH3 2015 include a hardcoded weather fix, like that developed by h.sie?

Yes. All the Hsie procedures.

Hopefully, there is a good assembler guru available that can help.

Good bye.

Hi h.sie,

your "Diesel Damage Fix" is 100% o.k. I'm using it since releas of patch V16B1 without any problems. It's exactly as BL!TZKR!EG wrote the changed "msvcr71.dll" which causes the reported CTDs. I've changed that dll to the original msvcr71.dll from Stock-SH3 and the "Diesel Damage Fix" is running well. Hope this will be fixed by the LSH3-Team.

Greetings

Thanks Rowi.

I am very much delighted with the fact that it is you who gives my reports and fixes such a positive spin!

Have a nice Pentecost Monday...

However, it is disabled on my SH3 set-up, because I do not like the effect. It causes too much damage to the engines - MAN diesels were famous for their reliability and endurance.

I have reinstalled the diesel fix to test your query. There is no CTD when the game is loaded - using NYGM, of course.

Many thanks also to Stiebler. Thank you for testing and confirming.

Thx to rowi58 & Stiebler & fitzcarraldo for your feedback. So it seems the problem is located (msvcr71.dll).

So far so good on this update. Win 8.1 wide screen... played a few academy missions today will sail. (someone should do this for WAC and GWX) Great job all

Another thing, is there a readme about the various events and things that are in the mod, like what was made for GWX? If not, can u, Urmel, tell us some historic le events that are in the mod?

Hi Avers,

the "ALARM"-Sound was not changed since Stock-SH3 in LSH3.

I will try to give an overview about the Events in the Manual.
In short: Weserübung, Rösselsprung, Paukenschlag, Neuland.
See the sector "! TOP SECRET !" in the help screen.

A pity Makman could not do for LSH3 a MaGUI HD for LSH3. I must use the amazing Anhenerbe GUI and that ruins the pretty and functional menus of the new version. A real pity.

BTW I applied the Hsie patch directly. Not via your optional mod and activation procedure. I had constants CTDs with your Incorporated Hsie patch.

Many thanks and best regards.

Hello fitzcarraldo,

yes, we only have WS-GUIs at the moment - HD-GUIs will be in work.

Hi avers,

yes, this issue is known, the file was found and will be fixed within a few days.
A Hotfix and/or a new download will be available soon.

Blueduck:

Issue #1: In regards to the "Can not initialize 3D Engine" issue, I believe you are right and the fault lies with the DirectX 9 version. However I cannot simply install this as the dumb OS will not openly install it since I have DirectX 11 in place. I did try to download this work around that others have used but it did not work. The first link I was able to install but the second did not and came up with the same issue
“DirectX setup has determined that a newer or equivalent version of Direct X has been installed already. No installation is necessary.” Then it quits. Any thoughts?

Issue #2: I did post earlier that the SH3 Commander was not working correctly and I wanted to retract this problem as I have figured it out.

Question: What happened to the torpedo damage or hull strength of the ships? I used to be able to sink many of them with one torpedo and now I waste three or more on a simple freighter? Did some of the settings get changed?


Thank you for taking the time to help.

Many thanks for the answer.

I hope you will make an HD GUI in the next future. You could contact Anhenerbe for that.

All the best.

Hi guys, I've been playing LSH3 2015 for a little time now and I've noticed a few strange things. First, I was patrolling in the Baltic and it was September 1st and I attacked two polish destroyers and missed, the destroyers attempted to attack me, but never came close, were the polish really bad at ASW? Second, on my 2nd patrol, I was coming near the Firth of Forth and I came under attack by a lot of planes, and I noticed three strange things, 1st, there was no pop up box coming up for these enemy planes, second, there were French planes attacking, were French floalanes based in England for ASW? Third and the strangest thing, I came under attack by a plane with American markings, there were no American warplanes in England at this time and they were still neutral, what was up with this American plane?
