Campaign Issue
 
Is there a way to start a campaign with custom difficulty settings??

Press the escape key while in the pen its under options.

It only works while docked and can be modified at any point in your campaign new or not.

Hit escape while you're in the sub pen, and you can change the difficulty options there.

Not only that some of the 'features' are disabled just to confuse things a little bit more. :haha:

Still its worth doing the tutorial for a few more xp.

using lot of mods btw.

Well forget everything you learned about SH3 and read some of the help guides stickied at the top of this forum section. :salute:

Trying to use SH3 logic in this game will only cause you frustration.

There's a simple tutorial around (in this forum) on auto-targeting which is really easy to learn and then you should be shooting straight before no time!

DarkFolle 03-16-10 11:29 AM

angle on bow mate...when u encounter the first ship in the damn tutorial there is no map to see where the damn ship point at...
solved! thx for da help!

SteamWake 03-16-10 11:43 AM

Sigh... here...

Now the tutorial is a little uhhh deciving as the autotargeting is not fully implamented. The targets are stationary and should be just a point and shoot thing no difficult solutions required.

DarkFolle 03-16-10 03:24 PM

no really, this game is broken... auto aim doesn't even function and manual targeting is totally broken.

No, there is plenty wrong and broken about the game but most of the targeting works fine. If you are having problems then you are not following one of the demonstrable methods for accurately conducting top attacks.

And auto-targetting is a cinch using the lining up the dots method.

If you improve your torpedo's speed, you gonna have problems, not even auto target compute the speed change...

the passive skill to boost dmg and speed of torpedos for example, get 5 points at it and a 44 knots turns out to be 52...

Try looking at that... might help, ahhh, and pre-heat torpedos reduce speed...

I dont have that problem when using auto-targetting. I can change my torp speed fine and it gives me a longer range and accurate shot. Lining up the 3 on the 3 at maximu range is a dead cert hit unless the ship changes course.

In fact its too accurate and no doubt highly unrealistic. But it works.

DarkFolle 03-16-10 04:32 PM

ok this is all, CO2 level going to maximum even after DAYS of surface patrol...
disinstalling the whole stuff.. thxfully this time I didn't spent a damn cent on this one (last one i preordered the FULL COLLECTOR'S BOX EDITION, only to see a non-supported game, unfinished, and bugged to hell - and this one is worse!).
Going back to my beloved SH3!
oh yeah edit: not to say i was in the middle of a storm, trying some torp solutions, and when i load back to try again, suddenly weather was calm and clean.
This game is sooooooo funny.

Frederf 03-16-10 05:22 PM

It's an old bug, a save and reload should clear it out.

DarkFolle 03-16-10 10:02 PM

is it so difficult for them to simply take SH3 and put in there the actual improvements?
