which file is the log stored in?
 

You know, the one that displays all the text in the bottom hud, like "02:07 Aircraft Spotted!" and such, I know I saw it in a file at some point, but cant remember where.

Can someone email me theirs at jamie@trux.com? Im at work and dont have access to my sh3 files, so your help is appreciated.

Thank you,

Jamie

Anybody? Please? I really dont feel like doing work at work today... being friday and payday and all....

I want to try something with the log.......

PLEASE

Jamie

It's the .crp file in the save games folder. I will send you one, though it will be in german :)

you're the best! thank you!

If you're gonna tinker with the .crp file, can you pls just give me a heads up - SH3Cmdr goes there and intends to use the file quite extensively.

I was more or less just going to tinker with it for my own purposes. Im getting too lazy to write logs while on patrol (I have a son and house chores, so I can't sit in front of SH3 for as long as I like.)

Im just whiping up a quick and dirty export from the crp to create my own KTB, filtering out all the unimportant stuff like "Yes sir, Ahead Full" etc, and formatting it like a real KTB. Im not doing any writing to the crp, so I dont think we'll have a problem. When you modify the crp, ill just modify my filtering export accordingly.

I doubt I'll release it. So no worries! :)

Or you can wait a month or so and SH3Cmdr will have full expanded patrol log functionality (it's been in development for a little while)...

(Yes everyone, it is still on the list, with others like:
- Ability to continue career with new commander
- Modified crew transfer algorithm (based on concept by Bladeheart)
- Ability to adjust officer's faces, uniforms and voices
- Further ship names (Sailor Steve)
- Setting patrol grid for first patrol of new career
)

Apologies for the little hijack there.

Not a problem! i'll hold off then. To tell the truth I wasnt looking forward to figuring out how I was going to do it! :D

Hehe...why do you think it's "been in development for a little while". :lol:

I've got it figured out nicely now...just gotta put the concept into action (in other words, just gotta get off my butt and start typing - or is that get *on* my butt and start typing?!).

I'm just glad that you have decided NOT TO STOP development of SH3Cmdr. It really adds to the game. :up: :up: :up:
