Hi Eric

Also, you can only pseudo-dock at U-tankers, not at surface tankers (e.g. Brake)

According to the LSH3-2015 HSIE instructions on page 7 you can.
If you want it to work with surface tankers then you need to rename Brake to U-Brake in the campaign files.

I noticed that in my test mission Eprobungstelle flotilla my base was in Stralsund but my boat was in the Pacific Ocean thousands of miles away.
Removed the mod and I was in Stralsund, all ok.

Hi Theberbster,

Thanks for your advice the radio log works fine, the only other issue i have is in career mode. Selected the year and flotilla in the commander start and made sure they matched what i selected in the game.

I have noticed there is no ships at sea, none in my dock and none in the English channel. Can not find one!!!

Is this a bug that i have came across, if so is there a fix for it or a solution?

thanks

Hi sturulez
Adding unrecognized mods to your game may be the cause of your game problems.
This mega mod is not designed to have mods added to it unless they are mentioned in the instructions or hsie instructions.
Ahnenerbe WideGUI 1920x1080 Final is compatible up to a point with LSH3-2015 but needs to be added after transferring from the Eprobungstelle.

I have not come across any problems with this mega mod too date after many missions and game saves.
I thought I read somewhere that the single missions could not be used, but I cannot remember where I saw it.

Hi,
You are right, but pseudo-docking (even at milkow ocean u-boats) works nowhere in LSH2015 (and only in LSH2015 at my home)

Hi THEBERBSTER,

I have re-installed the game and used ONLY the supplied MODS that came with the package.

I have setup another career in the Commander START. But still unable to see any boats. Have looked everywhere.

I think it was with GWX when you started a mission in the docks you would always see some sort of activity. I have found nothing. Went through the English channel and couldn't see a soul.

I have loaded the game and played some of the single player missions and they work fine, Radio logs and enemy ships.

I am really baffled to why it is not working.

Any clues?

Regards

Hi sturulez
When you have installed the game.
You can only start with 2 mods maximum enabled.
1.The main LSH3 mod
2. The GUI widescreen mod.
Select a career name in Commander or your own.
Check the U-Boat type being offered if it is not a VIIB there is a drop down box where you can make the change.
Options can be changed in the main menu if you want to change your language etc.
You must then enter the Naval Academy in order for your save games folder to appear in your documents which will show as V15.
When you exit the game you can then add your additional mods.
Always start the game through Commander.
You can make any changes here to your settings.
With your new career when the game loads to the office do not make any changes but just click on the map as you need to do a test mission for all new boats in the Eprobungstelle flotilla.
When completed click on the documents on the desk and you can give out any promotions etc.
Click on the telephone and transfer to the 2nd flotilla in Wilhelmshaven.
When accepted you can then exit the game.
If you are going to have a realistic career then only enable it when starting a new mission and then untick the box the next time you start Commander before starting the game in the same mission.

The game works well and offers many ways to play your game at different skill levels.

Hi,

Thanks for your instructions. I have followed it up to the part where you say " do a test mission for all new boats in the Eprobungstelle flotilla" - I have done this but have not seen any boats in the ports or seas

Is my installation corrupt?

I have installed the game in c:/games

P.s I have notice there are two JSGME. A commander JSGME and a LSH3 2015 JSGME. Which one do I use?

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi sturulez
I would re-install SH3 and then LSH3 again as you mightl have a corrupted installation file.

Your installation path is fine never in the (x86) folder.

Your mods are already disabled in the JSGME in the main game folder when you install the game, all you need to do is open the JSGME application to see them.
You do not use the SH3Commander JSGME it is empty.

When you open JSGME just enable the 2 mods I told you.
_LSH3-2015___FULLVERSION
_LSH3-2015___GUI_WIDESCREEN

Start the game through Commander as I previously said and go to the Naval Academy and select the navigation tutorial and you should be able to see map contacts here.
The naval academy is essential as it uses this data to set your game up and create your v15 save games folder.
If the naval academy is running ok there is no reason why LSH3 will not run properly when you add the additional game mods.

This is my mod list.
Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[D:\SH3\MODS]
_LSH3-2015___FULLVERSION
_LSH3-2015___Patch_HSIE-V16B1
_LSH3-2015__BunkerStart
_LSH3-2015__NoFatigue-NoSleepCrew
_LSH3-2015_ATM_GreenWater
_LSH3-2015_SLS_SpecialEffectsBig
Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final
O2-Gauges v2 < oxygen gauge when using hsie oxygen supply fix

Good luck
Peter

ummm so, new install fresh and ready to go, start a new career.

CTD after about 10 minutes, get to my patrol position and spot a warship on hydrophone, advance time to about 8 and CTD

lol is this real life

[fastfed]

ok well I took off the olc widescreen mod and just used the gui widescreen mod and was able to complete a full mission starting in DEC of 39. with a type 2A
VIA sub commander.

I tried Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080 and holy crap is it awesome, but because it messes up my starting location I will wait until I transfer to France and get a type 7.

Other then that, I really love it so far, I hope she stay stable. here is my current mods



does WB's decks a wash mod work with this ?

Anything I'm missing?

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi fasted

Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080

This mod is not compatible with the transfer process.
Start the campaign with the Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080 disabled, then enable it after you do a save.
You can use the default _LSH3-2015___GUI_WIDESCREEN mod and then swap them over.
To recap, add the mod after doing the Erobusngstelle and transfer.

I will wait until I transfer to France and get a type 7.

This will make no difference as you still have the transfer process from Wilhelmshaven to Lorient and then the test mission.

Using a type IIA off the Rockall Bank exposes this subs limitations.
You will also find it extremely difficult to complete the missions with the IIA as you do not have enough fuel or torpedoes.
You should be able to upgrade after the first time you docked in Wilhelmshaven.

You should be able to select a VIIB in SH3Commander from the drop down box before your first test mission and also before you did the naval academy.

What test mission? what naval academy?

[THEBERBSTER]

Hi fasted
The Procedure for LSH3-2015.
Install SH3
Install LSH3-2015
Open the JSGME application in the main game folder.
Enable 2 mods only.
_LSH3-2015___FULLVERSION
_LSH3-2015___GUI_WIDESCREEN
Start SH3Commander
Select a captain or use your own.
You can use the drop down box to change from type IIA to VIIB if it is available.
Start the game.
At the menu you can use > Options to make any changes to the language etc.
Go to the Naval Academy in the bottom left corner.
Select and start the navigation tutorial which you can do or exit the game to the desk top.
This procedure has set up your game data and created your v15 saved games folder.
Open JSGME and add the mods you want to use.
Start SH3Commander and make any changes in it that you want.
Start the game.
At the menu select new career and follow the prompts.
When the game loads to the office do not make any changes as you are going to do a test mission in the Eprobungstelle flotilla for your new boat.
Click on the map.
When the game loads you will be in Stralsund one of the test bases.
Follow your radio orders.
Dock back at Stralsund by using the Esc Key and then Exit Patrol.
You will be at a desk with a telephone on it.
Click on the documents and you can give out promotions, medals etc.
In a test mission this is the only place a promotion can be made or it will be lost.
Click on the telephone and request a transfer to the 2nd flotilla at Wilhelmshaven.
When the transfer is accepted you can exit the game.
If you want to have a realistic career or want to use the realistic crew transfers then tick the boxes before you start the games new mission.
Untick the boxes again after you have made your next game save.
This procedure should be done before any new mission but not on test missions when upgrading your boat.
When the game loads to the office this time you can explore it and make any changes to your boat and crew as well as other options that you will find.
All test missions for new boats are done in the Eprobungstelle flotilla although the bases will vary
Use the telephone and transfer back again to your flotilla.
Your crew stays with you regardless of the captains name.
You can also manage your crew in the 'click for available actions' where it is useful to give each crew member a qualification.

You can start the Naval Academy mission with whatever U-boat you want. But, you must choose it via Sub Commander first. Follow THEBERBSTER's directions.
