Hi !

Yes, give LSH v5 a chance and test the MOD, you will not regret it! :rock:

Best regards,

http://i976.photobucket.com/albums/a...exitscreen.jpgThanks for the quick reply. I had some graphics problems again, this is a screenshot of the screen that is supposed to be there when you hit the ESC key to exit out of a patrol. Here is a screenshot of the mods that I'm running. I'm still having the TDC problems, I can't adjust the dials using manual targeting. Any help with the graphics issue and the TDC would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much. http://i976.photobucket.com/albums/a...SH3Enabler.jpg

Hello rugby6,

concerning your graphic issues: did you try SH3 without any activated MOD? Do you have the same problems then too?

Just talked to our GUI-Expert, Bertl01, he will have a look after your problems with manual targeting.

Just a cosmetic change in your MOD-list: please activate the dark recon manual after the OLC-GUI. If not there will be a bright "halo" around the darkened ships.

Blueduck,

I didn't run the game before I loaded the LSH3 mod. If I disable all the mods will that take me back to the vanilla SH3? If I can do that, I'll try running the game without any mods installed and see if I have the same issues. I was running GWX 3, the exact same graphic problems were experienced with that also, but they happened far more frequently. I'm thinking it might be an issue with my graphic card setup. I'll keep you posted on that.

I'll take the advice on changing the mods around. Thanks so much for the input. The mod is a piece of art for sure. If I can figure out the graphics issues I'm sure I'll be playing this for years to come.

Take care.

Bouncing cam? Again?
 

Is it a wrong install, or does LSH3 still have the annoying old bug of the "bouncing camera". Can this be fixed, please, because it goes against the very essence of this otherwise great mod: watching things around the uboat, especially in port. I saw this bug fixed in other supermods, so it can be fixed.

For those who don't know what's this about, here is a brief explanation, as I found it on another forum:

Q: When I go to external camera to look for good screenies, it starts bouncing up and down. One second I'm 100 ft in the air, then 3 seconds later I'm 20 ft under water. Also at times it is tilted about 45 degrees left or right. What's going on?

A - The most common cause for this is when you move the external camera from target to target using the ',' and '.' keys. If you jump to a land-based target (usually a coastal gun emplacement), then it messes up the camera view and the camera movement controls.

Hello !

No, that is not an incorrect installation, this is normal and this can not be changed / fixed unfortunately!

This has to do with the bunkers and coastal gun emplacement which are defined as land units, so that they appear on the Navimap.This could only be changed by the bunkers and coastal gun emplacement no longer be defined as land units. But it has the disadvantage, if one wants to sneak into an enemy harbor, you can see on the Navimap not know where the bunkers and coastal gun emplacement are. In addition, it would be a huge effort to change the whole units.

Best regards,
Magic

Hi dcd,

i know, this problem can be solved by re-classifying the the LandUnits "Bunker" to "Environmental".

But if we do so, no LandUnit would be announced by the crew - and LSH3 has serveral "enemy bunkers" at "prefered positions" which can sink your boaot...

So in this case, use the F12 and then <SHIFT><ARROW> - with this combination you can go at very "high speed" to the object you what to "inspect".

Thank you both, rowi and magic, for the explanations. As I play without the God's Eye View, I don't see them on Navmap anyway. There remains the problem of the crew not announcing them, but I'll take the risk anyway:D and change them to environmental myself.
LSH3 is great and worth the wait! Thanks to the whole team:salute:

Manual
 

I have tested the mod for a few hours, and I am impressed. Is there any chance of an English translation of the Manual? My German is poor and reading is very difficult. It is like going back to high school for me.
I know it is unusual, but I really like to read the manual.
In any event, thanks for the mod and all your hard work.

Hi irish1958,

there is an english manual embedded. Have a look in the folder "Handbuch" or so.

Sorry, or click here

and on this site, click on "MiniManual"

Hi guys,

I'm experiencing the same problems as rugby6 (his post is on page 1 of this thread).

I did a re-install of SH3 and LSHV5 following the step-by-step instructions but I cannot manually change the TDC controls - either on the TDC screen or the pop-up at the bottom of the attack periscope screen. I also cannot click on the bottom icons for radio messages, briefings or the observation scope. Also, the TDC/Course finder cannot be moved either - (the one activated by the small button on the pop-up TDC console).

I've tried various combinations of mods but the result is always the same. Very strange. :hmmm: Below is my current MODS list.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers guys! :salute:

Hello All,

Is anyone experiencing any graphics problems with the mod? I ran it today and I was scrolling on the map (F5) and my display suddenly went black. I could hear sound in background but no picture at all. I couldn't even get the task manager to come up. I eventually had to turn the computer completely off and reboot. I sure would like some advice. Eagerly waiting for some help. Thanks.

Hello rugby6,

deactivating all the MODs will of course take you back to a vanilla SH3. To be sure check the folders "!BACKUP" and "!INSTLOGS" - they should be empty!

If you've had the same problems with GWX, i think, you will also have nearly the same ones with vanilla SH3.
Therefore you should update the drivers of your graphics adapter.

Your system is powerful enough to play LSH3 V5.

Hello irish1958,

the desired file can be found in the folder "documentation" within "SilentHunter III". The file is called "LSH3_V5_Minimanual_EN.pdf"

Thanks for a great MOD from all at ComSubsPac :salute::salute::salute::yeah::yeah::yeah::up::up: :up:

I deactivated all the mods and downloaded and installed the latest driver for my ATI Radeon 4350 graphics card. I encountered no problems running the vanilla SH3. I'm still encountering the black screen problem running LSH3. Any suggestions on what it could be? Is anyone else encountering problems? Hoping for some advice. Thanks for the outstanding support.

Question on graphics
 

I believe I have this installed correctly but reading some of the questions I am not sure. Does this mod change the look of the game as some others do or is it a improvement on game play?

Nice work :yep::up:

Nice signature RDP hope you and your family have a good Christmas also :salute:

Thanks SW :up:
