And the sky went all black... SH III Problem inside! HELP!
 
OK, so I am using SH III 1.4b+GW1.1a. A strange glitch has happened. I was playing a single mission. Completed it, and quit the game. The next time I load the game it looks like this:

So I wonder, what the h*ll has happened? And as a side note, can it have anything to do with a file called "scene.dat" in my main \data folder? I didn't change anything in it, but I did look for something in it. I use an ATI Radeon X700SE video card, with the latest drivers.


Thank you for any help! I'm desperate!

Do you use SH3 Commander? Did you roll back before looking at scene.dat? How did you view the dat file.

I think a solution would be to get a 'clean' copy of scene.dat from one of the separate atmosphere mods.

Are you using GW1.1a auto installer or the patched version?

N.B I have both versions of GW so could post the correct dat file for you if needed.

The Auto-Installer for 1.1a.

Thank you! Let's try that first. I'm using the 16km DARK atmosphere version.

If you could email it to
brewsterpilot@gmail.com
I'd be very grateful!


Thanks again!
