Merchant ship skins and abandon ship

[jjslymate]

1. Having problems loading Merchant ship skins, from the mod that has a whole bunch (brits, US, Brazil, Sweden, Greek and so on.) of ships. Followed the instructions, JSGM ready told to ignore conflics, load game (long Load) but no crash, also no ships Am I missing something?

2. Abandon Ship
I remember from the AOD game we had an abandon ship function when we were forced to the surface from damage by that destroyer you could not escape from. And just before he finished you of on the surface if you were fast enough you could order abandon ship, by hitting the "A" key and at least have the knowledge of saving your crew. I just wish I knew how to make a mod that could do that, any thoughts

1. Nothing to say about that question. I dont use the mod.
2. CTRL-ALT-DELETE to abandon ship lol. Its more effective than any mod and you get to have another go. I would use your imagination for the rest.

I doubt you'd be able to make a mod that allows you to abandon ship, or it would have been done by now.

On the other hand, SH3 Commander does have a function that lest you change your status from 'Killed' to 'Captured', which is effectively the same thing.

Ahoy jjslymate!

I don't know about the Merchant Ship Skin pack.
About the abandon ship thing in SH3: there is not that option nor a mod that could simulate that in game AFAIK.
But if you use SH3 Commander (if not I suggest you to try it, it is a nice addition to the game and is not a *MOD* but an external program you run before launching SH3) there is an option that consider you as a POW instead that plain Dead when generating your Personell File (a feature in SH3C) if in game you die (game over, you lost your sub) when you are on the surface.
