Please note, all previous GWX release links have been shunted to post # 2 below. Links on post # 2 are not guaranteed to be functional.

On behalf of the entire GWX Mod Team, I am pleased to announce our 'Gold' release...

GWX version 3.0!!!

The primary objective of this release has been to consolidate all official GWX files and fixes released to date for SH3.

Before this release, for a full and correct GWX installation, you had to first download GWX 2.0, then download GWX 2.1, and finally download the fixes released by bigboywooly on top of it all.

Now before getting all upset that we haven't jam-packed it with tons of new features this time... we have added a few important changes. (Watching you all speculate over the last weeks... its been hard to keep silent.)

Features:

First and foremost... something I consider to be a MAJOR breakthrough in SH3 environmental work. The environmental files for the GWX 16 kilometer atmosphere mod have been overhauled with the critical assistance of Subsim forum member "Onelifecrisis." Most of you are familiar with his previous releases adjusting the Sh3 environmental files, and his user interface modifications. OLC was the first that I am aware of to definitively remove the obnoxious horizon defect in currently available 16 km environments... In GWX 3.0 we have blended elements of our own work that we wanted to retain... with his awesome work.

In my opinion, we've gotten the best of both worlds.

HOWEVER! What you may not be aware of is that he has largely REMOVED THE POLYGON effect from the waves present in ALL other environmental mods for SH3 currently available...

AFTER OLC's modification with GWX 3.0! REDUCED POLYGON EFFECT with certain light angles... giving us water that is far closer to SH4 than any other arrangement currently available for SH3.


Additionally, (with the control-room only) when you dive or ascend, the interior angle view changes to match the angle of ascent or decent! Special thanks to Anvart and Vickers03.

I hope you will understand that our crew is very tired... and being Christmas Eve... it is time for family, friends, and a bit of quiet peace.

Please be patient with us as we upload the GWX 3.0 files to more locations and media types for further availability over the coming days. We know the website must be updated. ;) Just give us a few days to do what we know we need to do.

Guys, please do not expect rapid or consistent user support on Christmas Day.

GWX 3.0 TOTALLY replaces all previous GWX builds which are no longer supported.

GWX 3.0 MUST be installed over a fresh-clean installation of SH3 patched to version 1.4b.

GWX 3.0 MAY NOT be installed over previous versions of GWX.

Merry Christmas Grey Wolves!!!

At Filefront:
Special Thanks to Privateer, Bigboywooly, Jimbuna, Penelope_Grey, and Wreford-Brown for hosting the initial links at FileFront. (Thanks to problems AT FileFront... all of those original links are now dead... even Privateer's first link which saw more than 6500 downloads alone!)

Via Torrent:
Special Thanks to Jimbuna.

For SH3 Commander users:
PLEASE ENSURE that you run SH3 Commander WITHOUT the 'Sabotage and Malfunctions' option enabled.

SH3 Commander Cfg Files can be found on the following thread:
Special thanks to VikingGrandad!

Read directions very carefully


Visit this thread again as this post will be further updated as time permits me. (Installation instructions and special mentions... will be posted here.)

Minor updates/corrections/eratta:

For those wishing to use the optional mods - "GWX - Alternative Flotillas" and "GWX - English Nav Map and Grid Refs" the following files have been updated:

It has come to our attention in the last couple of days that there was a travelling light error in some of the terms....this has now been rectified and there are JSGME compatable links for the GWX supermod from Mediafire and the SubSim downloads section below:

http://www.mediafire.com/?ka4ena8f2egae2q

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=3996

From the readme:


It appears there has been a small oversight in some of the turms in GWX.
There were those that were showing two green instead of the intended one green
and one red.
Thanks to my good friend and GWX Techno Mage Privateer, this problem has now been
rectified.
On behalf of The Grey Wolves I offer sincerest apologies but no offer of any monetary refunds.
This fix can be activated via JSGME.

SINK EM ALL!!

Samwolf, if you're on dialup, might I suggest that you try Gizzmoe's torrent. You have a guarenteed complete download with no errors.:up:

I'm d/l'ing again via the torrent and will be seeding for a longtime.

I wouldn't want you to spend all that time d/l only to find that it is corrupt somehow.

:up: I finished two patrols in a type IIA today. (DLed it yesterday - thanks Kpt.Lehmann!)
It's impressive! TGW1.1 used to CTD occasionally for me, but GWx is not CTDing at all!

The first patrol hit bad weather neer the Shetlands and I had to turn back after I ran short on fuel after 2 weeks. I saw 2 neutral ships with their lights on and a plane flew over me.

The second patrol also hit bad weather on the Essex coast, but I fired a fan of 3 Torps at a beautiful C&V Destroyer. Two hits. She exploded and sank within 20 seconds.

Everything works well and looks great. Most of the sounds are good altho the torpedo motor sound loops instead of being steady.

The Ship damage is an improvement on NYGM. Sub damage works well too.
The campaign leaves me speechless. Great work!.

I can't wait till Bdu gives me a VIIC and I can get out to the convoys and taskforces!

Top Job!
Thanks!

First:
Thank you!
I will try it out!
Mostly likely make some changes myself, to fit my kind of gameplay...

But moreover:
I have some troubles with filefront and megaupload, and I figure others maybe have the same problems too! So I'm currently uploading the files to MediaFire as well to offer another download option! I will post the links here as soon as they get available (when I have the files...). For those don't knowing MediaFire, it's a free host with no waiting time! :D

Hey Gizzmo, I don't know if you can answer this but, I downloaded bins 1, 2, and 4. I am now downloading 1 and 3 via bittorrent. Is there anyway I can add 1 and 2 and 4 to help seed those right now?

those megaupload links only allow you to download a ciouple of files then they say download limit reached. Anyone know when the download limit is reset?

It was about 174 mins before I can dl anymore. It should show you.

I remember someone showing me a setting to put into my connection settigs so my ip constantly changes when uing ntl. Does anyone know what it was as I have had to replace harddrive and forgot.

Stop the torrent, copy the bin´s that you already have into the correct bittorrent download folder (overwrite the old files), then start the torrent again. That should work...

12 1/2 hours to download part 1. Time to go watch the Directors cut of Das Boot a couple of times.

Thanks for all the hardwork and hardaches you guys have gone through.
Samwolf, if you're on dialup, might I suggest that you try Gizzmoe's torrent. You have a guarenteed complete download with no errors.:up:

I'm d/l'ing again via the torrent and will be seeding for a longtime.

I wouldn't want you to spend all that time d/l only to find that it is corrupt somehow.
Not familiar with torrent, do I need any special software?

Azureus and UTorrent are good programs for torrent downloading. It's a peer-to-peer system.

I'm reeling it in at 75k, and throwing it out at 28k.
I'll leave this thing seed for about a week, so the mega-upload and filefront links are basically going to be a "fly on a gnats' ass" once we all get complete and seeding proper!

I've just been testing a few different methods and it seems you need to get a torrent client if you want GWX ASAP, I'm getting 40-50kps with the filefront, megaupload links and averaging 80kps with the torrent. Just a heads up guys, this may change over a few hours...

Looks like all the FileFront servers are bogged down. I was at 2.00 kps (hahaha) with 22 hours left. I switched to the MegaUpload mirror and I'm at 400kps (yes, you heard me... 400kps), with only 4 minutes left on part one!

Well i have to say that FileFront does great job even that it appears to be crushed with all those download right now ;). I'm downloading from them and my download jumps like a rabbit. For 30 second i download for about 300 kps and next 3 seconds my dl stalls ^^. I hope to finish it today :D
Compared to to ohter mirrors:

MU - about 40 kps
Torrent - 20 kps

GT182
12-16-06, 12:56 PM
:hmm: I might be wrong but... if you download each bin separately and not try to get them all at once, he download of each will go faster. But then again with everyone trying to download at the same time, that alone will slow things down.

By the looks of things, it's the same as the rush of traffic on the highways to do Christmas shopping. LOL And the highways around here are one hck of a mess. :yep:

Guys, I installed my no cd patch because my computer will not run the game with star force. This made my game crash. I guess GWX didn't like it. Any way around this?
This, (nocd), isn't something that's well tolerated in this forum, but I will say that I doubt very much if GWX has any preference as to the .exe's origin, since if it did it would be a GRAVE conflict of interest for a MOD to REQUIRE an original.exe.
Maybe check your "read me" again?

:up: I finished two patrols in a type IIA today. (DLed it yesterday - thanks Kpt.Lehmann!)
It's impressive! TGW1.1 used to CTD occasionally for me, but GWx is not CTDing at all!

The first patrol hit bad weather neer the Shetlands and I had to turn back after I ran short on fuel after 2 weeks. I saw 2 neutral ships with their lights on and a plane flew over me.

The second patrol also hit bad weather on the Essex coast, but I fired a fan of 3 Torps at a beautiful C&V Destroyer. Two hits. She exploded and sank within 20 seconds.

Everything works well and looks great. Most of the sounds are good altho the torpedo motor sound loops instead of being steady.

The Ship damage is an improvement on NYGM. Sub damage works well too.
The campaign leaves me speechless. Great work!.

I can't wait till Bdu gives me a VIIC and I can get out to the convoys and taskforces!

Top Job!
Thanks!

Yeah... GWX is old already. I want X2!

Really though, I think you guys did a hell of a job. I want to ask Ubisoft for my money back so I can give it to you guys. You all put much more heart and soul into this than they ever did.

I just set sail out of Kiel in the year 1939. I am about to try out my first trip through the Kiel Canal! Whoo hoo! I am pretty damn tired but I am straining to keep awake so I can keep playing. I just turned on the gramophone. Great stuff so far!

Neither the installer or GWX cares. The installer only cares that sh3.exe is v1.4.0.1, which it is either way.

That is a stock SH3 engine/computational lag problem that cannot be effectively fixed... and has nothing to do with any mod.

The only way to fix it is to make aircraft spawning probabilities so high... that any use of LOW TC would result in being swarmed by aircraft 24/7.

its a shame that SH3 has this bug as it makes long patrols unlplayable for me. it normally takes around an hour to get on patrol in the N atlantic playin at 256x so it would take hours of real time play to get to the indian ocean which is so boring. im all for realism but thats a bit much

No need to stick to low TC when out in the Ocean
Sure you will miss some ships but its a balance
I always use high TC when far from land - if I miss any aircraft then so be it
Close to land I rarely go above 128TC so as miss neither shipping or aircraft

Please excuse my ignorance as it concerns the Grey Wolves Mod/Expansion...but could some of you give me opinions on this vs. IUB? I've been using IUB for almost a year now and have been pretty complacent with it and have enjoyed the results of my decision to use it for some time obviously.

I've been following the development of GWX in the forums for some time and am very curious. Our group specifically uses IUB as well but we are always looking for improved methods of immersion in the game. Also, anyone have knowledge of other groups that use or will use GWX?

Thanks in advance,

Good job to all the devteam.

The new damage model looks to work fine. The new ships are great and break a little routine... thanks a lot !


But I was quite surprise to see three escorted french convoy in sept. 1941 off the portugese coasts...

there were small convoy with 1 small merchant and one bigger, escorted by a french flower.
There were not Free French ships but Vichy France. :-?
It's strange because the convention of the armistice, signed in june 1940, disarmed the French Navy...
Any idea ?
