Great news.

I thought it was gona be released this friday (today) So ive planned my evening whit sh3 and GWX but i guess i can postphone that a bit and do what i actually planned,

Get out on the local pub and get stoned and get an ugly woman whit me home. (beutiful when iam drunk and ugly when iam sober but i guess they think the same about me hehehe )

Looking forward then tomorrow to play GWX whit a bad hangover, Just like the real sub crews did when they left port :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


Merry Christmas to you all.

Guys, at the moment we have three mirrors and are working on others. These are going to get hit pretty hard.

Please be patient with it all.

Np My Dear Captain.

I have 5 gig Hd space to my disposal on my ISP. Too bad i cant use it for public cuz they need to dl a client and have a password also. Nearly same as an FTP.
Or els i could have provided the space as an mirror for ya also on a 100mbit connection.

Anyway, take your time and then we all look forward for the release.

Just curious, 24 hours from when exactly? Does this mean a Dec 15th or 16th launch?

Also Kpt: I have a website and I may be able to help host it for awhile. (Not permanently, but just to help ease the burden of the initial launch.) Please PM if you are interested.

I don`t want to bother you, specially now before the release, but i have a small question.

Is thise possible to some one from GW team how have a good upload internet connection to make a torrent link? - i personally will seed the GWX pack, i think its a greate solution for many users - and torrent client is very popular for my opinion.

I don't think so. But I'm sure the Kpt or Jaensen will reply when they see the post:up:

I just finished reading the GWX Manual. It is very well done and comprehensive. There is a wealth of historical knowledge there too. If the Mod reflects the same high quality as this---wow, we are in for a treat.

Thanks from all of us untalented but enthusiastic users.

Now don't bring out another one until we get the war over with ! :lol:

Take some time off and maybe 'play' a bit, eh?:cool:

Have you remembered to copy in the new config files? You can find a link for them in the manual. (pg8 IIRC).

Kpt. Lehmann,

Is SH3Weather still a program we will want to use with GWX?
Try GWX without it, from my experience the weather is a lot more varied. However, you can still use SH3 Weather if you're not happy.

Edit - SH3 Weather is a standalone program which reads/writes to the RND layer of ANY mod, so it will be safe to use. (just to clarify).

You, and other 56Ker's may have better luck jumping on the torrent once it's linked and seeding well. ;)

If you mean by 1.1 version 'Grey Wolves' then no, this will not install over GW 1.1.
You need to have a fresh, stock SHIII [with no mods] patched to 1.4b to install into. :yep:

Dang, I thought you would release it around 2am CDT just so you could catch the majority of users asleep and not have the huge hit on the servers. :hmm: :rotfl:

Hello folks .... just joined up and been reading about the GWX mod. Looks like I joined at the right time hehe. I've played SH3 unmodded and only recently noticed mods available for it, so it certainly looks like I'm putting it on my pc again. Sounds like the GWX mod makes things very easy for players like me who can get easily overwhelmed with all the various tweaks and mods available, but who wants to experience a much richer gameplay. I always have the greatest respect for modders who help to make games so much better.

So, just wondering if its best to just start with GWX for now. I've been looking at the Commander mod with keen interest. Will it work with GWX ok?

Thanks

The Commander mod was created by a member of the GWX team so of course it works, and it's a must as far as I'm concerned.

LOL this kind of reminds me of the night a BUNCH of us stayed up all night waiting for Level-D Simulations to release their 767 for flight simulator. Even after the team was on there telling us all to go to bed it would not be out for 8-10 more hours.

NOT me! No, stayed up all night to get it around 11 am or so the next day get it installed then was too tired to fly the damn thing!

I'm going to bed guys, do not know about the rest of ya! LOL

I had feeling that it was time to fire SH3 again and now I discover this wonderful is about to be released. Just had a read through the manual and I am really impressed! Just reinstalled SH3 and 1.4 and now eagerly await the mod's release.

Big thanks to everyone involved in the mod. You're awesome for sharing the product of your hard work with everyone.:yep:

It is 11:47 PM here in California. I have to stay up for at least 3 or 4 more hours doing school work. I figure I will just stay up until 8:00 AM (The time of launch for me) so I can start playing right away.

Itīs not too unlikely that Kpt. Lehmann releases GWX a bit later, so if I were you I would go to bed and sleep until 9 or 10 AM California time.

"Please be patient though if for some reason it isn't exactly on the mark. I've got a 12 hour shift ahead of me beginning in one hour. If I have to run a late call or two... it could be a tick or two later than 10:00 A.M.":
