All who experience ctd in campaign might try without wac campaign... maybe stock campaign gives more stability!

What's V16B1_Atlantic_Baltic_Campaign?

I have similar. I will try anenerve with fix, if same configuration works. I have have heavy modded version of other mega mod working with out crashing with h.sie patch and other with steibler patch so at first it should work.
But I'm a little frustrated with was. I have crashes but I can save and load with out crashes. That's good.

that would be some file is footed by manos. I may invert the order any way i dont think crashes comes from a gui file.

EDIT:
this is the kind of question a thief player have to say: this envairoment it to dark at close night. Theres a way to set bright of monitore to have a similar experience as the env. developer?

Would have to have a video tutorial to install the mod?

[Doolar]

I second that request ... please

What's wrong with it?
To me it was easier than GWX.

First, make sure you have clean, unmodded version 1.4 of SH3.
To ensure that, uninstall current version, and manually delete SH3 folder and SH3 folder in MyDocuments.

-Install clean version

-apply 4GB patch

-install JSGME for SH3. MODS folder in main SH3 directory will appear

-UNZIP first of WAC archives into MODS folder. Check if WAC folder within mods folder has the proper size and amount of folders and files, according to WAC install manual pdf.

-activate with JSGME

unzip other mods to MODS folder and activate via JSGME as needed.

Which step did you ommit?

Hello everyone!

In Your opinion which mod is better for someone looking for most realistic Silent Hunter 3 Mod? WAC looks best but there are so many other, I can't decide/

Many thanks!

[Doolar]

thanx B K, I kinda got that part, I was more curious about using SH3 Commander and S3F. Info is kind of vague on these. I figured S3F is a different can of worms and will or will not work itself out, no big deal there, but I would like to use SH3 Commander and I don't see a lot on that. again thanx for the help.

Hard to say, wac and nygm have gameplay improved. Yes wac have more eye candy.

Wac has better or more worked camping files, have better harbour ( better for raid), more air attack to bases . No heavy for mfm.

Nygm is the place where every things kill, more skill, much hard on real navigation. I dislike some features as fatigue/tube repair, I use my mod and h.sie fix.
Nygm works with stribeler patch. Old ports. No incredible camping file as wac but the random speed get you crazy. Double check until open tubes.
Get mfm and reduce version of mfm or complete.

I don't know which have better hydrphone, I tried to count rpm but I can't get good result.
Radar, I don't know which better the 2 are great worked as his way.

Wac5 is better environment, I have implanted in my other installation. Is the most dark closer night. You need moon shine to shoot. Rainy night, forget it, if you don't have contact in map or doing a blind shot.

Extra the fire at night is awesome, the flare in close night is perfect.

Was have an interesting camping files that let you see more varied things, in wac 4 I can't believe crossing with an naval German long range plane in middle vizkaya. Hospital ships. But less models.

I managed to follow his reasoning, but it was difficult. After Clean Installation was resolved..testing for now.
Thank you

super easy.

First off, run sh3.exe at least once in order to let the game create the "SH3" folder in your documents folder.

Secondly, install Sh3 commander straight into your sh3 game folder.

Thirdly, install or copy all JSGME files into your Sh3 Commander folder (so that you have two JSGMEs, one inside CMD folder, one inside game folder).

As usual, your Sh3 Commander folder should have a mod folder now where you wanna place the 'WAC_5.0_CommanderMod'.

Like so:


As far as I can tell yet can you change a variety of CMD's options without causing the game to crash. I, at least, have finished the August patrol without issues..
