IXD2 stuck to wall

[kholemann]

Ported in Bordeaux, I switched from my IXC to the IXD2. I went to leave the UBoat Pen and then there were damage sounds like I was being rammed. I went to the bridge view and everything was, visually, wiggling or moving rapidly back and forth. It sank with all hands dead! I restarted the game from that point and went to the external view, finding the very tip of the rear of the sub embedded into the wall.....

HELP![

Had this exact problem my friend, stopped me playing for a few months.

Heres how to fix it:


Open up the file:

SilentHunter3\data\Campaigns\Campaign\Campaign_LND .mis

with notepad.

Look for:


[Unit 36]
Name=Bordeaux
Class=NavalBase
Type=407

Where it says Long/Lattitude, change the co-ordiantes to these over the top of the ones that are there:

Long=-103695.000000
Lat=5447206.000000
Heading=0.000000

^^^these are the ones you want


This is the location that the sub will spawn (which is in a pen)

It will be free of the wall at this position.

Yeah that was a bummer all right, a good old SH3 bug that never got fixed by the Devs but someone on this forum made a fix for it.

Not sure who but I'm sure someone will come along fairly quick and let you know.


Good luck. :up:


Edit: Boy that was quick, thanks urseus for letting him ( and the rest of us ) know. :rock:
