It works now! :) Thanks to you fine seamen!

I'm wondering:
Does anybody play SH3 with GWX and
the Rafael DSK GUI ?

The reason that I'm asking is:

I can install the Rafael DSK GUI over a clean installation of
SH3 - it works and I like this mod very much.

However - despite following Rafaels instruction to the
letter - I can not have Rafaels GUI and GWX 3.0.

Spent the better part of last night to get it running -
installing the three (SH3, Rafaels GUI and GWX) but
it won't work.

Of course I disabled GWX 3.0's 'Integrated orders', as Rafael
says - but it still won't work.

Does anybody have some experience with GWX + Rafael
and maybe some tips?

Thanks a lot! :)

Success - I worked it out and have now a version with GMX and
Rafaels DSK GUI (updated version from 2010)

For details about this mod please check out:

In case anyone runs into problems like I did, I'll post
the step by step procedure I used.

*NOTE*
Those of you who have GMX 3.0 up and running can
of course skip over step 1-3.

Ok, here we go:

1. Install a clean SH3 V.1.4

2. Install GWX 3.0

3. Run JSGME to enable the GWX features you like

4. Do not enable 'Integrated orders'

5. Download the updated version of Rafaels
GWX DSK GUI:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom//dow...o=file&id=1957

6. Unzip and you'll find a folder named /.../data.

7. Contrary to instructions (no offence intended).
I had no success in copying the mod into the /.../MODS
folder and activate it with JSGME.

8. Copy and merge the data folder from Rafaels GWX DSK
GUI to target directory /.../data

Now it should work.

I know that the method is brutal - but after trying for 2 days
I was desperate...

_________________

On a sidenote: I have now two versions of SH3. One with GWX
and one with both GWX and Rafaels GWX DSK GUI.

Have to check what works best for me - but I guess
it will be Rafaels GWX DSK GUI. :)

Thanks to Rafael - outstanding job: A+

SINK EM ALL!! http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...ies/pirate.gif

Aye aye, Sir! :)

PS: I really must study U-Boat and Wolfpack tactics now because
I suck on it...
Will check the books-section

PPS: I play the game now 100% in german - feels good and
authentic (I'm not from Germany but my late mother was - so
I speak the language!) :)

Surface the boat while the destroyer(s) are throwing depth charges
left and right - fire two eels on the big tanker and two on the
big cargo - and then crash dive?

I'd say its a 1:10 that the boat survives...

I have just trawled through this thread from start to finish over a period of a few weeks on and off and I would just like to thank NeonSamurai for all the information he has provided for any one new to SH3. I have learned quite a bit from it and although not actually a newbie to the game, you always find out something you didn't know from threads like this.

This is what makes this community such a great one. There is always someone out there who can help. So a big thank's to everyone who contributes to this age old sim, that is still going strong after all these years.:Kaleun_Applaud:

Thank u so much 4 these awesome tips.

Thank you
 

Having just bought SH3 (after many years of Combat Flight Sim) I am in that delicious, bewildered newbie state that all of us were once in. That said, I thank you for pointing us newbies in the right direction as at this stage any help is welcome. I have just downloaded the GW SuperMod but feel it best to get used to the vanilla set up first and with just a couple of very impressed hours of play under my belt I know I have a lot to look forward to as this is so great I wonder why I didn't take to it earlier. I really am loving it so much.

If anyone would be so kind as to make a quick list of their setup (mods wise) to give me some idea of what you guys like, I'd be most grateful. I'm not even sure at this stage what(if any) Mod Manager I have to get, but as I said I'm enjoying being new right now.
It's a great feeling seeing it all for the first time and I'm just through the first part of the Naval Academy exams and I can't wait to get better and get set up with some good mods.
Cheers everyone :up:

Thanks for the Newbies help.
 

G'day,
I am perplexed as to why the links to download the mods on this Forum do not work for me ,
I would love to try out this sim to satisfaction.
How also do I know what the depth under the keel is. Be fore I run aground.
Many thanks and hope for a reply.

Click on the Navigator icon at bottom left then the icon of the U-boat with the arrowed lines underneath and this will give you your depth under keel information.

Hi fellow captains,
Been on shore leave for years but have returned to SH3, glad to be back.
Good hunting:salute:
