Default GWX 3.0 and Sea Bed Repair Mod

Is the Seabed Repair mod compatible with GWX 3.0?

I would imagine so. Yes.
90% of that which is compatible with GWX2.0 will be compatible with 3.0.

I would like confirmation on this one because I had a few issues with the stability of the boat ie not holding correct depth at slow speed with this mod enabled. Seems ok now that I have removed SRM01 but maybe someone has got it working with 3.0. Using OLC Gui without any problems so far. Quick thanks to the GWX team and all the other modders for all the hard work.

The depth-keeping problem at slow speed is a GWX feature, isn't it?

I believe so. At 1 knot I slowly sink, at 2 I can BARELY maintain ordered depth.

That sounds about right... I remember reading something similar in the manual for 2.0, but I might be wrong.

Ok ignore my previous post looks like the problem was at my end and the mod was not to blame. I have just reinstalled the repair mod and its working fine now just ran the navigation training mission and managed to settle on the seabed without going into a terminal death dive like yesterday and no damage reported. I am a happy kaleun again.

Yup, everything appears to be running fine on my end as well, at least at first glance.

tried to install the seabed repair mod and LRT.
But then i have a massive depth keeping problem. Even when ahead flank my crew wasnt able to maintain depth. Dont think its the seabed repair thing, maybe the LRT Mod? Because the crew efficiency is reduced, maybe thats the reason...

But my Boat behavior was that the Nose of the Boat was looking upwards, ahead flank was ordered (no matter what speed) but still sinking to the bottom. Only Emergency Blow helps to surface..... Never tried to bottom the boat because its useless to be able to bottom the boat when im not able to maintain depth.

Any other experiences in using both Mods LRT plus Seabed Repair Mod?

all the files which are affected by SRM mod, have not been changed from gwx2.1 to gwx3, so i assume that SRM will work with gwx3 as well as with gwx2.1

Thats interesting thats exactly the problem I had (before reinstall) almost as if the diving planes had seized and could not get the boat level again. I had to respond by blowing tanks (I also tried full speed ahead but made no difference) looks like some files might need tweaking somewhere. One to keep an eye on. I have not got the LRT Mod installed.

My Mods installed so far apart from seabed repair
Open Hatch Mod
Stz sinking ship fix 2.1
OLCE2 With reflection fix (Prefer the murky grey water)
OLCE2 Enhanced Damage
Thomsens Sound Pack
OLC Gui Special
GWX St Nazaire and Schleuse
Fixed Gun Emplacement GWX3

hm, but u where able to fix it like you said a few posts earlier.
I also have the OLC GUI installed but i was using the combination of SRM and LRT.

That leads me to the conclusion that the order of mod installation might be important here....

Another question, the Seabed Repair Mod allows you to bottom your boat and repair....
was reading in the GWX manual, it must be allready possible to bottom the boat for repairing because they write it in the manual, if not then the manual is incorrect and should be updated.

You must be right, I never used the mod and have always been able to park my sub on the sea floor without problems. Of course, you have to be very careful and and almost have no forward speed when you touch down to avoid damage. Usualy I use the exterior view but I have also done it without "cheating".
