Default Super!

Thank you...thank you...thank you.

Installed today and it looks great. You have made me return to SHIII and I am not complaining.

Works like a charm. You put a lot of effort into this and it is appreciated.

Hi - just returned to SH3 after many years of modding SH4. I have a GWX install running and decide to give LSH 2015 a go. Luv the look and feel of it ... however ... the look of the Sea just doesn't "do it" for me. I run either MEP V5 or Sh5 water for GWX when running GWX and when I compare with LSH 2015 water .... the LSH look is just not as good... so couple of questions;

1) What environment mod (if any) does LSH 2015 include ? and
2) Is it possible to load MEP V5 (and will I lose any LSH features. I did see in the release notes for MEP that it works with LSH V5 .. but doesn't mention LSH 2015.
3) Could there be a problem with my LSH install causing water to not look like MEP ?
4) Anyone tried the SH5 water with LSH 2015 ?

For me the water look is quite a big deal ... I always hated the stock SH3 water and compared with MEP and Sh5, the LSH water looks too close to stock (very pastel like, flat, featureless).

Thanks in advance for any replies. Other than the water, loving the look & feel, even though my laptop seems to hate the loading times :-)

Hi all

@ La Vache, tnx for your support for OLC GUI enhanced “attack disc” user!

@ polyfiller, i understand very well what u miss 2016 in L/SH3.
After playing SH4/5 for a while… the original SH3 visual effects (water/sky/particle… DX8/9) always locks “like a bad joke”!
This IS the ultimate SH3 problem 2016, special for new/young Subsim Gamers (without any love and understanding to “our” old Game).

All the very fine done “visual” Mods (MEP, ATM, SLS ) can NOT expand the technical SH3 limited (DX8/9 effects 2005), to bring the high visual level of SH5 (DX10).

For LSH3 Edition 2015 we check/compare the additional “visual” Mods (Edition 2010<>2015) very carefully.
Additional Mods ATM und SLS was in, MEP was out.

Feel free to activate our MEP Mods (Edition 2010) to Edition 2015 – and try it.
My advice is… always activate the Edition 2015 GUI at last in the Modlist.

Please give us all your feedback about!

Regards, Urmel

Default Is it me?

I have tried everything, to install this mod.
All I get, is a message saying; "Can not install mod here!"
This, after it says, "Install in original sh3 folder"
What am I doing wrong?
Or am I as thick as the turret housing/

Any ideas

Thank you

Hi gaztop
Try creating a new folder with a name like SH3 for example.
The installation will offer you to browse and you could then choose C:\SH3 and it should install ok.
You can name the new folder anything you want to call it, the installation is looking for a folder where to install the game.

Default Keyboard set up

S! to all. At last I am going to have a go at LSHIII 2015! Never had a machine powerful enough up to now.
One simple question, but it is important for me.....

I have an AZERTY keyboard (French) but in GWX I had all speech, voices in German, Text in English, but keyboard French!!
Is there a possibility to have the same setting in LSH3?
I have used the AZERTy for do long it is really confusing to have to learn the QWERTY!
Merci d'avance

Having an issue, hopefully someone can help.

Have a steam copy of SH3, LSH3 is launching via steam without issue after jumping through some hoops. Problem now is no matter what wide-screen mod I enable if I launch SH3 through steam the game crashes before the first splash. Disable wide-screen and it launches.

The bizarre thing is, if I launch the game with a wide-screen mod directly via the games executable it will launch without issue. Problem is steam is then not tracking my hours.

Anyone have a solution?

Fwiw, running win 10 x64
i7 4790k
AMD fury
16gb DDR3

Thanks for the welcome back. Been lurking a bit. If you're up for it, you can try using the OLC Widescreen GUI version. That's the one I was using _LSH3-2015_GUI_OLC_WIDESCREEN. I think that's the one that had the stopwatch off to the side of the screen. I'm giving Ahnenerbe's GUI a shot now on top of LSH2015.

I think my game is messed up, just got an air raid in 1939 in Whilelmshaven and before this i made the first mission in the training flotilla, transfered to the 2nd flotilla and exited the game, then when i started the 2nd patrol got teleported to the west coast of africa lol, wich then i aborted the patrol and got teleported back to the base and got a iron cross medal lol, i dont think this is normal at all.

Hi Kumando
1st mission is the Eprobungstelle testing mission from Stralsund.
This sometimes can glitch and you find yourself as you say in Africa although you can see that this is incorrect as it shows Stralsund as your starting point.
Do not make any changes at all to the crew or equipment before completing the test mission.
It is also important as in the instructions to have visited the naval academy to set your game data up.
After completing the test mission you pick up the telephone and request a transfer to the 2nd flotilla Wilhelmshaven.
Exit the game before starting your 2nd mission.
When in the office now you can safely make any changes you want.
The 2nd mission should start in Wilhelmshaven where as you correctly say you are caught up in an air raid.
