med water problem

[Morts]

after having played 3 patrols (GWX) in the med the water is still the same colour as the atlantic water
how come it wont change ?

You need to play via SH3 Commander for the changes to take effect

[Morts]

i am using SH3 cmdr

[Jimbuna]

Then you must have a faulty file somewhere....it works fine in my installation

[Morts]

could it be in SH3 cmdr or is it a faulty SH3 files ?

[Jimbuna]

Hard to tell.....but I suspect it won't be SH3 Commander :hmm:

:hmm: , did you rollback the Cmdr before launching your Med campaign? When playing 2 or more campaigns it´s possible to get out of sync if you forget to rollback before switching between the Atlantic and the Med. At least yours truly have managed that, twice Try rolling back and then check the Backup folder in your Sh3Cmdr folder, make sure its empty, and then load your campaign from the Cmdr. Should work.

Didn't GWX2.0 have the option to load both Atlantic and Med campaign-data?
I can't check, cause I've been to busy to even have a glimpse at the new GWX.

Using JSGME you can have either the Black Sea or Indian Ocean Campaigns installed separately or you can combine the two together using the Merged Campaign option.

Hi!

It actually has the option to have the Black Sea, Indian Ocean campaigns, or the whole war at once: the default is the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The Black Sea and Indian Ocean missions do not use the Mediterranean water.

We tried to make sure the individual missions had the right water type, so please let us know if you think they do not.

Thanks!

This has nothing to do with water colour and such - the water is not controlled by the contents of the campaign files; it's controlled by separate files which SH3Cmdr toggles depending on what flotilla you are in. (23/)29 Flot careers should get Med water regardless of campaign files loaded.

And this is something else to remember: if you're in say, 1 Flot and decide to go looking in the Med, you will still get Atlantic water. Conversely, if you are in (23/)29 Flot and decide to go into the Atlantic, you'll still get Med water. One of SH3's limitations that can't be easily overcome through modding.

FYI SH3Cmdr also forces Arctic water textures when you're in 11 Flot.

I see...thx.

But now this one: let's say I depart from Bergen - July'44, in a XXI - and head for the Med.
How to get the correct water-colours?
