Is it recommended to play with manual targeting? (you do it all yourselves, TDC, ect...)
or with help of the Weapons Officer?

I used to do it manually in the game Wolfpack and other subsims. But i think with the GWX its a nice experience too.

After crashing, the Event Viewer reports an error with the graphics driver, listed below. Sometimes it also reports an error with kernel.dll prior to the graphics driver error.

Having the same problem with dxvk in Linux Wine. The mod + driver just runs out of memory. Since Intel uses parts of dxvk in their driver, this could be the same problem. I think GWX KC went to very the limits of available memory in 32 bit and that is causing problems.

No dice. I guess this is my excuse to buy a new Nvidia card...

I delegate the ship identifications to the Weapons Officer, for everything else I go full manual. I play with a rather realistic settings (I keep external view because it is cool to see your sub), without map updates and with the no fatigue mod (I don't enjoy the crew management stuff). This is just how I play it, I think is a matter of what is fun for each one.

I'm a bit new to this. I was wondering what the overall effect of add the SH3 profile and applying changes. Does this only affect the SH3 game or does it affect any other applications/graphics card unrelated to SH3?

Thanks,

Conan

It will only effect the game you select from the dropdown menu in this case Silent Hunter 3.

In game map
 
I've noticed the convoy map in game only shows the air coverage from 1943. I can see there is a map at the before patrol start menu which covers 1939, 1941 as well as 1943.

Is there any chance you could include this version of the map in the main mod in game it is really useful for knowing what time compression to use when moving through air coverage zones?

nik112, you stated that you added that ship. We do not offer user support for all mods. We offer user support for GWX-KC material mate. I think you can understand why that this is so. Life would be impossible if we tried to offer blanket user support. When you add mods to GWX.... any resultant anomaly or unexpected result must be placed on your shoulders.
Therefore you need to post your question elsewhere outside this thread to the modding community.

I'm having an issue with oxygen though. I can only stay underwater for 30 mins or so before I get a low oxygen message.

I've installed the mod in its own folder and run it from there as per wolfpack345's video. I've also ran the hsie patcher. The only other mod I'm running is the GWX special effects mod.

Any ideas what I've done wrong?


No need to run the h.sie patcher. GWX KC already has that.

With the GWX KC oxygen usage settings - and assuming you have maximum oxygen level in your boat, your crew are not repairing or reloading torpedoes (which increases O2 consumption) or you're not in silent running mode (which decreases O2 consumption) - you should get the following interval oxygen usage reports whilst the boat remains submerged:

After 50 mins: "Oxygen: 20 Percent"
After a further 1 hr 40 mins: "CE: Oxygen: 19 Percent"
After a further 1 hr 40 mins: "CE: Oxygen: 18 Percent"
After a further 1 hr 30 mins: "CE: Oxygen: 17 Percent"

^ At that point (5 hrs 40 mins after submerging), the oxygen level inside the boat's pressure hull will have dropped to a dangerously low level. If you surface, all of that oxygen will be replenished.

If you remain submerged, you'd then get the following report:

After a further 10 mins: "CE: Oxygen too low: Using oxygen supply"

^ From this point onwards, your crew are using non-renewable oxygen from the pressurised O2 storage flasks in the boat. When that runs out (a full supply lasts a long time), your crew will die.

If you surface before it runs out, the renewable oxygen inside the boat will be replenished as normal, but any non-renewable oxygen in the flasks that you used up will not be replenished.

Good spot! Thanks for reporting this. I'd accidentally switched off those two layers when exporting the image file.

I've now fixed the pull-down map so that it shows missing air coverage areas for 1939 and 1941. The corrected version will be in a forthcoming official update for GWX KC.
