TO ALL:

I have extensively updated the first post on this thread. It addresses MANY things.

I've one question about Unified Campaign for GW - what does it change in GW, what are your opinions about UC and is it necessary for full realism and playability?
I know that it's Rubini's work then it should be piece of really good work.

When you are using a slow machine try replacing the sound "amb_SubmarineInterior.wav" with the stock one.

Its 27 MB big and because its playing all the time a shorter loop nees less RAM.
After using the file for a long time (before GW) it gets annoying. You know when the paper rustles and then there comes the cough...

Is there a possibility to get the NYGM Crew Management working on GW? I used SH3 Commander to get it into GW but it doesnt work properly. e.g. the engine compartments slots are not reduced and I need a higher effenciency to get them running.

Which files of NYGM do I have to use to get it working and what will I miss from GW then?
I know it is no simple question, but since you are working on merging the 2 mods (which I'm really looking forward too) I'm confident sb knows.

Gute Jagd!

I can't or it won't let me download the 1.1 GW update from the rapidshare web site :( keep getting a "Download-session invalid" message.

I was unable to get the GW 1.0 from there too, I got it no problem from Terrapins site.

Any chance of uploading the update to Terrapins site please?..........

Unfortunately I can't play with GW mod. This mod makes CTD so often, that playing longer than few minutes is impossible .
What can i do about it? I have ATI Radeon 128MB card, Athlon 1.7GHz, 2GB RAM and Windows XP.
Never had any problems with other mods.
BTW I have also GW update 1.1

Hi Kpt. Lehmann,

Yesterday, I started my first GW patrol. Looks Great :up: ;)

But i have a problem: When I switch to periscope, the game crashes to desktop. When I am on the conning tower or at the guns and then switch to presicope, it seems to work.

Config: clean SH3 1.4 + GW (standard installation)+ GW Update
Windows XP Home SP2
Radeon 9800 Pro (latest catalyst), 2xAA + 2xAF

Can you help?

regards,
Commander

Kpt. Lehmann,

Just wanted to thank you and your team for the mod. It is now (with some minor additions) my mod of choice. Great, great job!! :rock:

As a side benefit I also have been able to free up much hard disk space as GW includes many of the mods I use to install myself.

It's nice to be able to install four or five mods instead of 20!

I eagerly await further developments and additions.

Please clarify a little, in which stage of the game it CTD, and any other mods you have installed.

Thanks Ref - works great now! :oops:

Allied Planes?
 

Did I say this is an awesome mod?

Thanks to everyone who helped put it together :up:

I did not see a single allied plane on my last three patrols -September to December 1942. (what's this - a U-boat captain comlaining about a lack of planes - back to the sanatorium!)

Okay so I'm not complaining, usually I see a few off the NW coast of Spain, and I certainly get a few in the NW approaches and W of Gibralter....

Maybe I have just been lucky - or they wre busy with Torch..

Sometimes the weather has been so bad even the ducks were walking... :D

Not that I want to find out the hard way either...!

Anyone else noticed this?

Horrible screeching sounds
 

Having been away from SH3 for a while (and having changed systems from a desktop to a laptop), I came back to it just to try out Grey Wolves.

For the first few minutes in port, it was absolutely awesome. The GUI enhancements, the ambient sounds, the harbor traffic: my socks were knocked off.

Then I tried to use the attack periscope.

For whatever reason, going to the attack periscope caused the game to produce a horrible, awful mind-shattering screech (and I was wearing headphones) that would not go away, no matter what I did. I saved and reloaded, and the screech went away. All was well - until I tried to use the attack periscope again.

Can anyone recommend a fix here? I looked in the "sound" folder in my SH3 directory, and couldn't find anything that would obviously be the attack periscope sounds. I really would like to do a full campaign with the GW mod and preserve my hearing and sanity, if possible.

Thanks in advance, all!

***EDIT***

<s>After reading through some forum threads regarding sound problems, I fixed mine by deleting creak_level2 from my sound folder.</s>

Problem persists, see below.

Ref, there is no rule. Sometimes it CTD when leaving port, sometimes while at sea and sometimes at periscope view. Mostly it CTD, but sometimes also reboot.
I have only GW super mod, GW update, optional 16km Atmosphere dark sky mod, SH3 Commander and SH3 Gen.

That's strange, most CTDs are related to bad installation, for example a ship file is missing, but they allmost happen's at initialization, perhaps it's a bad sound file, but the most strangest part is the reboot, I've been working with computers for about 20 years, and normally the reboots when running an application are due to a faulty memory module or heat problems (a fan not working), but if you used sh3 before with no problems it's probably not the case, my best advice is to disable the mods and run sh3 to try to reproduce the simptoms, and if everything it's ok enable the mods one by one to catch the source of the CTD.

Ref

Maybe this will help :roll: . This is an error signature after CTD.
