MOD plea
 
Here's one for all those brilliant people that have given us so much with their MODS - a SAFETY for the firing button!!:wah: TWICE in on patrol, geeesh!!

Do you mean for the Enter key? Are you playing stock? GWX at least makes you press Ctrl + Enter to fire, so no accidents, and I'm pretty sure other supermods do too. There's also a stand-alone fix, and has been for years.

Steve is right, all the mega-mods have addressed this issue. If your not playing with one of the larger mods you should. They increase the campaign elements by ten-fold and the variety of additional mod combinations is numerous. I personally recommend GWX, but there are others that are just as good or better,depending on who you ask. So if your looking to try GWX< JIMBUNA has the .Bin files you need to download in order to install it.

Good Luck and Happy hunting:salute:

Thanks
 
I've looked at GWX but wasn't sure how much of an improvement it was over the stock, which I understood incorporated a lot of the previous mods, but I'll give it a try, although my ooops (until a few minutes ago!) was done with my mouse when I was lowering my scope.

You'll be amazed. Pretty much everything is changed, from the way the AI and sinkings work to the way it looks. There are a lot of newer mods which can be added to further enhance the experience, but GWX is a great start and really doesn't need any of the others. They just help.

Also if you're not already using it you're going to want SH3 Commander. It's not a mod but an external tool that adds so much more it's beyond description.

Kind of like going from hamburger to steak. Try it, I suspect you'll like it... :03:

Open (C:\games)\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Cfg\Comman ds_en.cfg with notepad and add the 'c' between the commata to command 313:

[Cmd313]
Name=Fire_torpedo
Ctxt=1
Key1=0x0D,c,"CTRL Enter"

and you'll have to press CTRL + Enter to fire a torpedo.

Like going from junior high lunch room Sloppie Joes to a Porterhouse at Dickie Brennan's.

OK -

Like going from eating grass to eating watermelon and honeydew melon starter, mains of mushroom stroganoff, and a dessert of Samoan Panikeke, intertwingled with a refreshing and cleansing lemon sorbet, washed down with a nice Chablis. GWX is that different to vanilla! :yep: And Commander is a must too.

GWX (or any of the super mods):

It's worth it, The super mods make it more like SH3.9

Great
 
I am installing GWX, and after the previouse posts, I'm strangely hungry. I was using SH3 Commander, although I could never get the log editor to work, and I had some other great MODS that I had found and liked, though many didn't seem to work, I'm thinking with a clean install, GWX, and Commander, all should be even better. This is a great community!

Have fun and good hunting! :arrgh!:

Ahhhgggg!!
 
OK, so now I have GWX (and yes, I love it) but I found that the accidental firing of torpedoes isn't my fault after all, and it still happens. I am on scope or uzo and click on the screen to use to the mouse to look around, and when I click again to bring the cursor back to leave the screen or lower the scope, the cursor is defaulting to the firing button, so when I click to get the cursor back, it fires a torpedo.
