I need some help with a couple of Venatore's mods. I'm trying to use the Compulsory U-boat Headdress mod and the Tactical Green mod. I followed the instructions in the readme files to install them using JGSME but they're not showing up in the game. For the Headress I'm seeing only the watch officer wearing his and no one else. The Tactical Green is just not there, all the Side slide icons, GWX intergrated orders, and Text are still stock white.

I also have his Elite U-Boat Uniform mod installed and it's working without a problem.

Any ideas?

[Jimbuna]

Have you unpacked the mod into the MODS folder then enabled the mod inside JSGME :hmm:

[DirtyACE]

Have you unpacked the mod into the MODS folder then enabled the mod inside JSGME :hmm:
That's exactly what I did. Like I said, I had no problem with the Elite Crew uniforms, which has the same installation instructions.

UPDATE: I managed to get the Headdress mod working. Apparently it only works by not using the Realistic Crews option in SH3Cmdr. However, the mod does have files for that but it's for SH3Cmdr 2.7, I'm using 3.1.

Now regarding the Tactical Green mod. This one I only got to work half way. The part that works is the text in the game menu prior to going on patrol. After I go on patrol, the game loads, then goes to the screen which says "Initializing", and then nothing happens, it just gets stuck there. Then I hear a beeping sound which indicates an error has occurred. I Ctrl+Alt+Del to desktop and see a little window open with an error message which says "Menu ID not found: 0x3f010022!" Any idea why this is happening?

[nikbear]

Does anyone have a link to get Venatore's VIIC atlantic workhorse 3 skin,also his skin for the IXb and both his Type XXI skins,lost them a while back and would love to have them again as they are excellent:cry:

Hi all,

It seems Venatore has gone AWOL but inspite of that his excellent mods remain. :hmm:

Can someone that has all 101 of his awesome splash screens please direct me to a better source than Megaupload. That site sucks! :damn:

Anyone with a FF account willing to help? His FF page only has his older mods not the newer splash screens.

Thanks. :up:

I rated this thread 5 stars.

[Hohenstaufen]

Hi Guys, does somebody know. Why i Dont see anymore Medals on my Crew ?

I using GWX 3.0
SH Commander,
Black Elite Crew Dresses

No more medals on the crew !? I dont know what i should i have been reinstalling this game now for 3 times. Maybe i done some mistake ?

By the way this Headsmod, for the nice heads is also not working. Which Venatore said it should be optimal for the Black Elite Crew Dresses mod...

Somebody Could help ?? Thx you very Much. Greeting froms Germany to the whole world. :rock:

[Jimbuna]

Check the JSGME based within your GWX program folder and see if the 'GWX no medals on crew' mod is activated.

[Hohenstaufen]

Hello,

yes it is not activated. Is there some files which i could put somewhere ignoring JSGME ? I think this should be the easiest way.

I was using also Olce Crew skins but now it is not activated anymore. Maybe it crashed some files ?

I found out that "Rank Deco.tga" has something to do with Medals.

Any Idea how to get the things back in Order ? :arrgh!:

[Jimbuna]

If your using SH3Commander perform a 'rollback' before disabling any mods.

If your not, then I suspect you have a corrupt file somewhere.

[Hohenstaufen]

Allright, I Understand but you have an Idea to enable the Medals be editing some files by my own so its working again ??

**** i could blame me for stupidness and my bad english. :timeout:

Is the Compulsory U-Boat Headress Mod compatible with the mod enabler or do you have to place it in manually?

Without boring you :zzz:, with regards to my whereabouts, lets just say if you read my job description you should understand. Please give me time to work out how to play this game again as it's been a long long time since I saw my beloved U657 and its crew.

I especially want to thank SWCowboy for being the caretaker/custodian of my mods whilst I was away......I didn't even have time to ask him but he did it without any direction/guidance from me........thank you so very much SWCowboy. Additional your web site is truly amazing in its construction since I last saw it, congratulations my friend BTS.........WoW! :o

Please understand my job will take me away at short notice in some case for very long extended periods...this was a classic demonstration.

I'm pleased some very familiar names are still serving the U-boat service.

Sleep soundly my friends your little independent modder is here......until the next phone call anyway lol.;).......right lets just see if I can get to 100 mods!

[nikbear]

Yay,you coming back has made my day:yeah::woot::D

[-SWCowboy.]

You're very welcome Venatore :cool: Glad you like how we re-arranged things :yeah:

I won't take all the credit though, I had a lot of help from some very dedicated people along the way :03:

[SeaWolf U-57]

it places White hats on your officers :salute:

just enable no problem it will overwrite the officer hats thats all

[Anubis2k24]

oh ok... thnx...

[SeaWolf U-57]

Hi Venatore i was hoping for a new fantastic skin from you to go on my Battle sub ..... have you any on the go at the moment :salute:

or a new uniform for the gun crews that look like body armour flecktarn version would be good ...thanks

[Venatore]

Real Life at the moment is out of control. I'm in the Army and will be away for the next few weeks/months on and off.

Once things have settled I'm keen to re-commence modding.

Fellow Captains,

I can't put my hand on my heart and give the SHIII modding commitment that I use to be able to, so It's time to retire from the SHIII world of modding. I'm preparing for the new world of SHV. This may seem a bit pre-emptive, however; for me, I'm moving locations (RL) and work is overpowering everything. So I'm hoping by the time SHV is released I (U657) will be in its new port ready, totally focused to deliver independent mods to the community.

It's been a wonderful journey with SHIII and I've learnt heaps .... from you all, which I think will set me up for the SHV onslaught.

In my spare time I'm helping the Luftwaffe (IL2-46) over at hyper-lobby flying at Balance of Power server (full switch) I'm on Team Speak so drop and and chat or fly wing on my Bf 110 sorties.

Kind regards

Venatore.

None of the mods on BtS-Mods.com were lost when we had our hiccup & prompt disconnection. They were all downloaded to one of our moderator's hard drives.

Rumor has it that BtS-Mods.com will be returning with most of its original staff members and managers. When that will happen is yet to be seen but it is in the works and all of Venatore's mods will be back on as soon as BtS-Mods is back in it's new form.

PLEASE READ


Hello,

This is where you will find all mods that were either created by me and the alternative mods that were created by other modders to which I've either combined or altered in someway (permission given of course). You will not find the big mods like GWX here, but the more smaller eye candy & sound candy mods.



If the mod was not created by me, I will always inform you of this, and give as much credit to the original creator/s as they so deserve. I will inform you if I have used someone else's creation in two ways so as I can not be accused of stealing someone's mod and claiming it as solely mine alone. The 1st method will be via this thread. If I place a mod on here I will always give information in the form of "notes" just prior to the pictures or download link. the 2nd will be the read-me file attached within the download.



I've decided to combine my mods and the alternate mods that I use in my game so you can try out what I use just to see if it's to your liking.

Happy gaming !
