Hi sturulez
When you have installed the game.
You can only start with 2 mods maximum enabled.
1.The main LSH3 mod
2. The GUI widescreen mod.
Select a career name in Commander or your own.
Check the U-Boat type being offered if it is not a VIIB there is a drop down box where you can make the change.
Options can be changed in the main menu if you want to change your language etc.
You must then enter the Naval Academy in order for your save games folder to appear in your documents which will show as V15.
When you exit the game you can then add your additional mods.
Always start the game through Commander.
You can make any changes here to your settings.
With your new career when the game loads to the office do not make any changes but just click on the map as you need to do a test mission for all new boats in the Eprobungstelle flotilla.
When completed click on the documents on the desk and you can give out any promotions etc.
Click on the telephone and transfer to the 2nd flotilla in Wilhelmshaven.
When accepted you can then exit the game.
If you are going to have a realistic career then only enable it when starting a new mission and then untick the box the next time you start Commander before starting the game in the same mission.

The game works well and offers many ways to play your game at different skill levels.
Peter

can someone post their mod list with this mod, I'd like to add a few and want to make sure its ok.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your instructions. I have followed it up to the part where you say " do a test mission for all new boats in the Eprobungstelle flotilla" - I have done this but have not seen any boats in the ports or seas

Is my installation corrupt?

I have installed the game in c:/games

P.s I have notice there are two JSGME. A commander JSGME and a LSH3 2015 JSGME. Which one do I use?

Hi sturulez
I would re-install SH3 and then LSH3 again as you mightl have a corrupted installation file.

Your installation path is fine never in the (x86) folder.

Your mods are already disabled in the JSGME in the main game folder when you install the game, all you need to do is open the JSGME application to see them.
You do not use the SH3Commander JSGME it is empty.

When you open JSGME just enable the 2 mods I told you.
_LSH3-2015___FULLVERSION
_LSH3-2015___GUI_WIDESCREEN

Start the game through Commander as I previously said and go to the Naval Academy and select the navigation tutorial and you should be able to see map contacts here.
The naval academy is essential as it uses this data to set your game up and create your v15 save games folder.
If the naval academy is running ok there is no reason why LSH3 will not run properly when you add the additional game mods.

This is my mod list.
Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[D:\SH3\MODS]
_LSH3-2015___FULLVERSION
_LSH3-2015___Patch_HSIE-V16B1
_LSH3-2015__BunkerStart
_LSH3-2015__NoFatigue-NoSleepCrew
_LSH3-2015_ATM_GreenWater
_LSH3-2015_SLS_SpecialEffectsBig
Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final
O2-Gauges v2 < oxygen gauge when using hsie oxygen supply fix

Good luck
Peter

ummm so, new install fresh and ready to go, start a new career.

CTD after about 10 minutes, get to my patrol position and spot a warship on hydrophone, advance time to about 8 and CTD

lol is this real life

ok well I took off the olc widescreen mod and just used the gui widescreen mod and was able to complete a full mission starting in DEC of 39. with a type 2A
VIA sub commander.

I tried Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080 and holy crap is it awesome, but because it messes up my starting location I will wait until I transfer to France and get a type 7.

Other then that, I really love it so far, I hope she stay stable. here is my current mods

http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...psrcxn9b10.jpg

does WB's decks a wash mod work with this ?

Anything I'm missing?

Hi fasted
This mod is not compatible with the transfer process.
Start the campaign with the Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080 disabled, then enable it after you do a save.
You can use the default _LSH3-2015___GUI_WIDESCREEN mod and then swap them over.
To recap, add the mod after doing the Erobusngstelle and transfer.

This will make no difference as you still have the transfer process from Wilhelmshaven to Lorient and then the test mission.

Using a type IIA off the Rockall Bank exposes this subs limitations.
You will also find it extremely difficult to complete the missions with the IIA as you do not have enough fuel or torpedoes.
You should be able to upgrade after the first time you docked in Wilhelmshaven.

You should be able to select a VIIB in SH3Commander from the drop down box before your first test mission and also before you did the naval academy.
Peter

What test mission? what naval academy?

Hi fasted
The Procedure for LSH3-2015.
Install SH3
Install LSH3-2015
Open the JSGME application in the main game folder.
Enable 2 mods only.
_LSH3-2015___FULLVERSION
_LSH3-2015___GUI_WIDESCREEN
Start SH3Commander
Select a captain or use your own.
You can use the drop down box to change from type IIA to VIIB if it is available.
Start the game.
At the menu you can use > Options to make any changes to the language etc.
Go to the Naval Academy in the bottom left corner.
Select and start the navigation tutorial which you can do or exit the game to the desk top.
This procedure has set up your game data and created your v15 saved games folder.
Open JSGME and add the mods you want to use.
Start SH3Commander and make any changes in it that you want.
Start the game.
At the menu select new career and follow the prompts.
When the game loads to the office do not make any changes as you are going to do a test mission in the Eprobungstelle flotilla for your new boat.
Click on the map.
When the game loads you will be in Stralsund one of the test bases.
Follow your radio orders.
Dock back at Stralsund by using the Esc Key and then Exit Patrol.
You will be at a desk with a telephone on it.
Click on the documents and you can give out promotions, medals etc.
In a test mission this is the only place a promotion can be made or it will be lost.
Click on the telephone and request a transfer to the 2nd flotilla at Wilhelmshaven.
When the transfer is accepted you can exit the game.
If you want to have a realistic career or want to use the realistic crew transfers then tick the boxes before you start the games new mission.
Untick the boxes again after you have made your next game save.
This procedure should be done before any new mission but not on test missions when upgrading your boat.
When the game loads to the office this time you can explore it and make any changes to your boat and crew as well as other options that you will find.
All test missions for new boats are done in the Eprobungstelle flotilla although the bases will vary
Use the telephone and transfer back again to your flotilla.
Your crew stays with you regardless of the captains name.
You can also manage your crew in the 'click for available actions' where it is useful to give each crew member a qualification.
Peter

You can start the Naval Academy mission with whatever U-boat you want. But, you must choose it via Sub Commander first. Follow THEBERBSTER's directions. :salute:

Ok well obviously I did not do all of this. Do I now have to unsintall the entire game and reinstall again? or just delete my current campaign and take off my current mods?

Also what year do I have to choose in subcommander before I start?

Hi fasted
Delete any current career captains.
Disable your mods.
Follow my previous instructions.
As I said you can select a captain in commander before going to the naval academy.
http://s31.postimg.org/iuzxl34fv/1_S..._Name_1024.jpg
Notice in the picture that the Eprobungstelle flotilla for testing is already selected for when you start your game for real..
Although a type IIA is showing there may be a VIIB in the drop down box that you can select now.
Notice also that the start date is approximately 1 month before the start of the war.
This means you can sail pass Scapa Flow and stick to fingers up at the Royal Navy destroyers as you make your way to your patrol grid off the Rockall Bank as war has not been declared yet.

Stick with the default year.
Peter

Awesome!! Thanks man

just did a full reinstall for the heck of it, followed your directions to the T, when opening sub commander without touching a thing except selecting a captain, there is no type 2, just a type 7B

the only way I can get a type 2 sub is to select the month of September, Aug. like you show is only a VIIB

CTD!! LMFAO

I guess the mods need to be in the correct order, you had me put the GUI as the second mod and only 1 of the two from the beginning.

Also after I initially made my captain and started the game for the first time VIA commander, did the academy and quit the game, no longer was my made captain in commander anymore, so I then had to make it again and make the "changes" I wanted as stated.
When finally opening the game I now had two captains made, same name.

After going forward and loading anyway I got a CTD after loading the first test mission?
I changed the mod list around and now it worked, Why can't someone just simply put their mod list in the proper order so people would know?

If I followed what LSH3 shows in JSME and just enabled it all it wouldn't work.
Pretty sure HSIE-v16 needs to be enabled pretty early, before the GUI

Tick what boxes? I already made my captain and followed your directions, there is no box to tick anymore.

Trouble installing Living Silent Hunter 3
 

Hello gang been awhile,
I just got back into playing silent hunter 3 and wanted to try my hand at the mods, I currently have gwx working flawless and wanted to check out LSH32015. so my problem right now as when i go through the installation process is that it says it cant have spaces for the file. I go to the sh3 file and it says that it cannot have spaces and then tells me to retry. Also should i uninstall gwx and could that be the problem? if anyone could help me that would be great. I'm going through steam games,common,then to silent hunter 3 file and this is where i run into spaces are not allowed in file names or path. Silent hunter 3 is on my G drive under steam games if that helps?!
Cheers,
XDugginX

Hi fasted
Do not forget that you can use the menus in Commander to enhance your game.
The tick boxes I am referring to are these in the Career Menu.
If you want to simulate a realistic captains career or have realistic crew transfers then you tick the box before the start of any new mission.
You remove the tick/s before the start of your next gaming session.

Peter

Hi Guys

I am trying to get SH3 to work with Win 10 without luck

I have downloaded LSH3 and followed the instructions but when get to this section :_

LSH3-EDITION-2015-STARTER installation dialog:
- Choose a language and follow the instruction
- Choose the installation folder of the original SH3 installation
- Wait while the files are being unpacked
- The rest of the installation works automatically


I choose the installation folder as per the PDF which came with the download and I get the following

SH3 must not be installed in this path, tried other folders or creating a folder and it says no spaces allowed and retry

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
