Good news indeed!

The .exe file alone can't do anything although it is an excutable I think it's very awkward if you can't distribute it - should'nt all resources be equally copyrighted?
but then I'll have to pull the dvd from the shelf...

BTW sorry for digression but maybe you could even find a value to reduce the brightness of green HUD or a value to lower crew voice volume on the bridge...

Finding them might take me a day or 6 months. I don't really know. If I get lucky, I will find them sooner rather than later.

Not 'if', but 'when'. :yep: That is how sure I am. I now know how to change the death triggers. I just need to find them.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and every one else. Would be great to get this damn thing working. :up:

Since AI torpedoes are looking promising and almost everything else that was missing in stock SH3 (like milk cows, harbor traffic etc) has been implemented already , the only thing missing then would be an option like in SH4 to be assigned special missions like long range cargo or passenger transport, recon etc. However, then the game would be perfect and who wants a perfect game :D

That's interesting. :hmm: Did the sub eventually die from flooding in that room or was it ok?

The small radioroom was totally flooded but the game does not ended , and the sub was OK ,all ahead full Mr Murdock :up:

yea mate but it is one of the most annoying problems with sh3...that instant death!!!
it would be great if the end of game didnt come so ubruptly for us...its probably hard coded but we can dream on!!!:rotfl:

I things I am changing are hard coded. :lol:

If your in the .exe that really does open up a stunning amount of possibilities in all areas. Usually all the stuff thats missing or out of balance.

Good luck with that Sakura551

:up: :lol:

I hate to spoil the party, but I believe this may be overstepping the bounds of both the EULA and the informal goodwill between Ubi, devs and modders here; and if it is - unfortunately this will not be welcome at Subsim. I will leave Neal to make a call on this one.

I don't believe there's such a thing as ".exe mod" or "modding hardcoded features". The only valid term for that is "hack".

Don't misunderstand, I sympathise with the good cause here, but if this turns up illegal - sorry, not on Subsim. We're not very keen on playing Robin Hood here.

Is that really a hack or just triggering-opening whats all ready there but wasnt implemented ?

Not arguing the point here just wondering

Ok I said it, am finished now, so please don't shoot me :)
