Hi,

SH3Weather1.5: Could you give more details about this thing? Can it work with any SH3 installation?

I have an issue where the game crashes to desktop when I approach a convoy. I tried approaching with 64 TC but the game crashed. Is this a memory issue or do I just have to lower TC?

thanks

It adds in mission weather parameters to scene.sim
Not much is different, it tries to keep the 10 day long
Storms in winter months. With EnvSim_10 you may
Be in a storm when a patrol begins,,, but when you
Reach your patrol area a big storm is less likely, in
SH3 there will be storms! This just helps when there will be storms. It has a self-executable installer
And uninstall it works best with SH3 commander.

I had two problems with it. I kept experimenting by starting at the beginning of the war, so I don't know if that had anything to do with it or if it was the number of missions or some such. The first curiosity was on the third mission I would be traveling to west of the UK. As I got by Norway, it would just CTD.

The other problem was that when I would log back into the game, upon loading my sub would instantly crash dive to 1000m and hit "bottom". It would do it super fast, faster than ahead flank in full dive. There would also be some weird graphical glitch where I couldn't view anything other than the command room and I couldn't really move the view around.

I also noticed some peculiarities in how save games were logged in the main menu portion of the game. I don't remember the specifics, but some information was either missing or duplicated on the screen.

About the time I finally got frustrated enough to ditch it, h.Sie and Stiebler both came out with their weather fixes, so I started using those and moved on.

Haven't seen the problem since.

Okay, I tested approaching the same convoy at 16 TC which should be more than low enough. Weird issue, I never had this issue at ports. I tried out some new mods, I'll see if they're the issue

There is a bug in SH3 when crossing the Prime Meridian at high TC in the North Sea and Arctic that causes sudden CTD, I never heard it associated with Sh Weather. "IF" you want SH Commander in WAC 5.2 to work "At All" it will not start the game without SH Weather it just gives more error messages. If you you have ever created a single mission, or worked with Campaign files this is where weather entries are edited, Sh Weather changes these values before starting the game based on the month. It is the only script it reaches. These are tips for WAC 5.2 Players only, who have had trouble even starting the Black Sea Campaign 5.2, or using SH3 Commander with a career. Any other TC issues are well known since I started Playing SH3 in 2005. I hardly ever go above 512 for more than a minute, and never above 64-32 within 40km of a convoy.:Kaleun_Salute:

Okay, interesting info. Turned out the issue was lack of memory, too many mods running at once. I turned of MEP V.6 and it worked fine, which is a shame because I'd really like to use it :Kaleun_Mad:

This cant be fixed as this is a SH3 stock bug!

The only possible Solutions are..

1: delete alle docked ships in Harbours

or

2: place all ships near docks away from the docks somewhere in distance

@mikey117us

Great job on your subs and the SH3 commander Problem.

Maybe I will make some updates in some mods this season and include your fixes to solve These Problem with black sea campaign and english language.

@Hamppupalaa

Actually MEP should work with WAC5.2, although I reduced some Cloud textures.
Do you have any other mods installed?

WAC SH3 Commander Light

Getting ready to tackle WAC 5/WAC 5.2.

Question: Does WAC SH3 Commander Lite install through JSME like everything else or does it need to be installed using the original SH3 Commander instructions?

First you install SH3Cmdr32 according to the manual, then apply the WAC files SH3 Commander Lite.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 12:39 PM.
