I assume you have added these mods to the LSH3-2015 enabled mods list in JSGME?
It is quite likely that these mods are not compatible with the mega mod.
There are very few compatible mods you can add to LSH3-2015.
Do check out my tutorials in my signature as it will save you a lot of time and possibly a bit of grief as well.

Hi,

I think I found a solution to my problem, There is a "extended challenge" mod in JSGME that reduces radio contact reports from 1500 kms to 350 kms as well as other things, it also turns all contact colors to black, so no more identifying the enemy from far away, so pretty much what I was looking for. don't know how I missed it.

PS. I took another look at the Kiel u-boat bunker next to the docks and there is a cheering band there too, which leads me to think it was intended to be possible to start from there.

Hi again,

While on a patrol I got a message that says I was recalled to base for a "special mission" and should be prepared to go out on April 2.

I ended the patrol but it wasn't 2 April and I'm not sure how I can force a it to start at that date, I started March 31 and waited at sea while battle of Norway was going on and waited until April 12 and still got no message about it, how do I actually follow up with this "special mission"?

edit: unless the general orders I get while battle of Norway is happening is that special thing the earlier message was talking about?

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

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

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

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,
Steve

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
