Default Grid overlay

The 4-digit grid conversion you're looking for is GRIDXXXX. It's available here at SUBSIM in two forms, the original by Tycho and modified by Fahnenbohn. Either "Search" or go to the "Downloads" section.

I installed it in LSH3 menu_1024_768 as G31 I35. But, I'd advise you to change the position before you install it; the original (-157, 1671) leaves it hidden beneath other pullouts at the upper left corner of the Nav chart screen. I changed it to 125, 1650, which centers it at the top of the chart.

Hope this helps; sink 'em all!

Many thanks, CaptBones and BL!TZKR!EG. This is exactly what I'm looking for!

Default Black Sea

Hi all,

Has anyone had problems when transferring to 30th Flotilla and starting in Konstance; the U-Boat is located in FG28 rather than the port? I'm not sure whether 'GridXXXX' doesn't like the Black Sea?

Many thanks.

Been getting tired of GWX (but not SH3 itself still), looking to give LSH another try after my previous attempts.

Maybe I would be able to get into this great looking mod if some of the biggest issues I have with it have some type of resolutions:

1) Extremely, extremely, long load times, both for booting up and loading a mission (as well as loading save)

This really is the biggest issue that prevents me from playing this supermod.

Is there any fix or solution to this?

I run win7 64 bit, 16gb ram, gtx970 (soon to be gtx1070 in a few days), i5 cpu

I grew up on a c64, so I know how to deal with long load times, but I swear these load times are longer than anything even the longest loading c64 games. It is easily 5 to 7 minutes per load, sometimes seems closer to 10 minutes.

Other secondary issues:

2) AI for enemy destroyers hunting you is extremely poor (even with extended challenge on)

This I could even just deal with without any solutions as long as the load times disappear or lessen at least and just simply enjoy LSH for its extreme immersive feeling, which in that department it highly excels...which is all the more reason it is so sad that these other 2 issues plaque the supermod.

Anyways, sorry if I come off as a dick with this post or seem entitled. I really want to enjoy LSH, but these issues are preventing to from being able to, despite all the potential and work I can clearly see went into this supermod.

So, any tips, tricks, information, solutions, advice, etc would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Danke

The game loading times is down to your system not LSH3-2015.
My saved games will load in under 5 minutes from SH3Commander.

Is it possible to play LSH 3 in a high resolution my monitors native resolution is 2560 x 1140. If so how do I go about setting it up.

Also how do you open the locks in the harbours

Thanks

Hi skip
Code:

You cannot open them.
They are timed.
See my tutorial on post #26
