Another quirk about MP play in SH3 (and also in GWX as a result of SH3) IIRC... the propellors on ships do not rotate.

@KJM, regarding the aircraft bombs... some are wing-mounted and others are stored internally. In a perfect world, we could animate the bomb-bay doors snapping open to reveal the eggs!

Also, if you'd like to observe the Avenger aircraft's flight characteristics in game, just load the regular non-MP mission "U-505." It has Avengers in it... and they fly normally.:up:

GWX2.0 Career Crash
 
I just had my 1st crash with GWX2.0.

I had just finished off a medium cargo ship with my deck gun; (1st ship sunk during career). I went to the crew management screen and saw I had one crew member in the forward torpedo room with a red exclaimation mark; I moved him to get rested. Next I clicked on "surface cruise mode" and that was the end of everything. Next, the screen went to my desk top, and after about 10 seconds I received an "error has occurred" window. "Do you want to send a report?"

Yep, that's a stock/original bug. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

We can't fix it but you can avoid it by doing it manually i.e surface & move your WO.

KJM,

Just a question on your MP crashes.
Are you play online by yourself or with others?
If you are playing with others you should make sure that you ALL have the excate same setup or a CTD is bound to happen at some time in game or in the loading of the game.

As the Kpt and the other GWX devs have stated already MP is the most weridest part of SH3 and is full of little quriks. It is the price we pay for MP being a last minute addition to the game before it was realesed.

May be all MP players must to have installed GWX 2.0 ...? :hmm:

Kaleu. Jochen Mohr 12-13-07 08:02 PM

the MP's are only L_DOG and me, both of us use GWX 2.0 with the same things ;)

A prblem with GWX2
 
Hi to all thanks for a great mod, a question, I dont normally bother with single missions preferring to get stuck into a new career.

I did just that today after finally successfully re-installing SH3 and the patches and GWX2.

Ok so I'm off the NW cost of Ireland sunk a small merchant, nice graphics no problems, then I search and search and search and finally get a convoy, inbound, I rush ahead perfect position, night time attack raining but seas not too choppy. I'm in map view looking at sound contact spreading out all round me, just about to go to perescope and.............................Windos has made an unspecified error!!!!!

Has any one else had this, here are a list of mods enable via JSME
GWX - Alternate Loadscreen - Full Circle
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
GWX - Integrated Orders
GWX - No Medals on Crew
GWX - VIIC41 Player Sub

Please help GWX is great but keeps crashing
 
Once again thanks for a great mod but I can now confirm I am having a problem with CTD's

After previous experience I disable a few mods trying to isolate if there was a mod that was causeing the problem. Then started new career, this time off Gibralter I was NE of large convoy, sped ahead and set up perfect attack and then Bam major crash, PC rebooted then als sorts of messages about my active desktop and Microsoft wanting to send messages. Took me a while to get things back in order, once again I have a clean install of SH3 with required patches and GWX2 below I have listed additional mods installed via generic mod enabler.

GWX - 16km Atmosphere
GWX - Alternative Flotillas
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
GWX - Integrated Orders
GWX - Captain America's Officer Icons
GWX - VIIC41 Player Sub
GWX - Merged Campaign

Racerboys FX sh4 to sh3 isn't compatible with GWX 2.0
He's working on it. All his mods will have to be reworked to work with GWX 2.0 There only compatible with GWX 1.03

Tomi's models aren't compatible with GWX 2.0. They will be fix soon. GWX 2.0 have changed there U-boat files as well as many others. The only thing that will work will be music and skins unless you see GWX 2.0 mod compatible on it.

I hope that helps.:up: Give the GWX DEV team some time to work the minor bugs and they will rework many older GWX mods. Thats what I hear so be patient.:smug:

rascal101 12-15-07 03:16 AM

Thank you sir, you are a gentleman, will remove SH4 effects and see if this stops the crash.

Just to clarify, modders that made mods for GWX 1.03 will need to rework their mods to be compatible with GWX 2.0.

If we had to do everyone else's work too, I think our guys would have strokes.

MUST have your VIRTUAL MEMORY turned up to the MAXIMUM setting to play MOVIE MOMENTS.

Could the problem be with the SH4 Effects

As WolfeHunter stated I can bet money that my SH4 effects for SH3 is causing your CTD. In GWX 2.0 they altered the zones.cfg file and thus it 'calls' for some new events which aren't in my particles.dat file. You'll have to disable it until I can make it compatible with GWX 2.0.
The GWX Enhanced damage effects alters the particles.dat file, mine does also. There's no point in having both enabled. Only one will take precedence and that's the last one you enabled via JSGME. That's just for future reference ;)

rascal101 12-16-07 05:57 AM

Another crash this time its skins doing the business I think
 
Thanks to all for your help, I disabled the SH4 effects and had a good run without crashes, so then I got a little carried away and popped in a coupele more skins to see what would happen, sure enough I got a spanking, CTD and the following message

AppName: sh3.exe AppVer: 1.4.0.1 ModName: sh3sim.act
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0000196a


Guess I'll have to be a good boy and sit and wait just those dam Wollfhunter skins are so good here's a list of my active mods
