Hi V
LSH3-2015 is controlled by SH3Commander.
This means that you should always start your game from it.
The easiest way to do this is to open the LSH3-2015-C ommander folder, go down to the SH3Cmdr application icon right click on it with your mouse and you can either send a shortcut to your desktop or to the Taskbar.
You then use to always start your game.
I would also advise to set this application to run as an administrator.

SH3C has many optional changes that can enhance your playing enjoyment.
I would suggest that you might like to take a look at my tutorial posts 11, 19 and 20.

Hi guys & girls,

I have a slightly stupid question: When I first installed SH3 + LSH3, I changed the resolution in the main.cfg to 1920 x 1080 and it worked fine.
After a reinstall, I did the same thing: Changing all the main.cfg (both in the documents and game installation folder) resolution lines to 1920 x 1080. But now my resolution is still set as default, widescreen GUI working fine, however.
How can I change this?
Thanks.

Best,
Brett

Hi BS
You do not need to touch the cfg file with LSH3.
My cfg file looks like this.
My native resolution 1920 x 1080 but notice that here is set at 1020 by the game.

[VIDEO]
Resolution=1920 x 1020
FullScreen=Yes
Synchronized=No
DynamicShadows=No
ParticleDensity=100.000000
TextureResolutionHigh=Yes

The Wide screen GUi mod sets up 16.9 aspect ratio.
You only need to make adjustments if you have sound and a black screen.


It is important that you have your cpu setup correctly as in this example.

Thank you!
For some reason, I cannot change my display settings on NVIDIA's control panel, probably because it is a laptop. I can, however, change the panel fit to "maintain aspect ratio" - to no avail. I'm going to reinstall my video drivers tomorrow.
I tried to change the resolution in the d3d9.ini, but now the gui only sits on the bottom left on the screen (at its original size), while the rest of the screen is black.

Best,
Brett

Hey Guys,


Im thinking of trying out LH3 as i have always played GWX however there are a couple of mods that i always play with and i wondered if anyone could tell me if Thomsens sound pack and Manos Environment Pro V6 are compatible with LSH3?



Thanks all

[ThePrody]

Manos works fine but i think you need to edit a file out of the Thompsen mod ,
the file en_menu.txt from the Sound Mod's .\data\Menu\ folder

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi DW
The problem only arises if you have the mod enabled when you are doing the Eprobungstelle test missions.
If you do not like the idea of editing files then just disable the mod before the test mission and enable it again before starting your next patrol

Thomsen’s Sound Pack fix for LSH3-2015

When you use the Sound Pack, the test mission AO 83 has you based in Penang, but the deployment location is near the southern tip of Africa. All you need to do to fix this is to remove (or rename / backup) the file en_menu.txt from the Sound Mod's .\data\Menu\ folder. I have no idea why the Sound Pack would need to use that file, but it seems to work just fine without it.

Enjoy,

Hi Gents,


Thanks for the replys, i enabled Thomsens sound pack after the first mission as stated above but i have noticed with the sound pack enabled my recognition manual and TDC UI have changed to German, if i remove the mod they change back to english. I dont remember this happening in GWX.


Is there anyway to keep the sound pack but change the recognition manual and TDC UI back to english?


Cheers

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi DW
Thomsens sound Mod only has German speech with no English option.


You can check Options from the main menu where you can make changes to Texts and Language.
It is possible that the mod changes these or disables them.

[Delta Wolf]

Hi Peter,


Thanks for the reply, Options in game are set to Texts= English
Voices=German Keyboard=English with the soundpack enabled or disabled, however with the mod enabled, the language (Text) on the attack scope TDC screen change to German (Just the TDC), also my recognition manual language (Text) is in German.


This is not a big deal however as soon as i disable the mod it changes back to English.


Just wanted to know if there is a way to change the above back to english but still keep the mod?


Thanks

Hi DW
Bit of a compromise for you unfortunately if you want to stay with the mods.

I think once you settle in and understand the differences you will be ok.
If you are not sure what something means then pause the game, press the Windows key, use the Google translator.
Sounds a bit long winded but is not that time consuming.

You might find this useful is a list I knocked up when having a similar problem as you.

Thanks for the info.



Much appreciated

Hello. I am using the megamod Lsh3 2015 with sh3 comander and when I have done everything and execute sh3 comander you can not hear the voices of the crew when you give tren orders. Do you know What is due?

Thanks

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi zeus

Hello. I am using the megamod Lsh3 2015 with sh3 comander and when I have done everything and execute sh3 comander you can not hear the voices of the crew when you give tren orders.

Did you enter the Naval Academy Tutorial only with the main LSH3 mod and the Gui mod = 2 mods only.

Have you setup your gpu as per this tutorial?

Are you running Windows 10?
If yes are you using compatibility mode for Windows 7?

Are your running your SH3.exe as an administrator?

Have you checked that you are using the latest drivers?

I have tried everything and nothing. This problem was also with GWX3.0. If I do not use the sh3comander the voices are heard
