sh3 commander

hcs53 · 08-26-12, 10:41 AM

I have a question about sh3 commander,
When I open sh3 commander and click on, "click for available actions", and after that on,"review patrol logs", I cant do and see nothing,the only button I can use are "close".
I am on my first patrol from Kiel.
Is there something wrong?

Commander can't do anything until the patrol is over. At that point you can look at the patrol log and rewrite it. You need to take notes on paper until then.

Not to seem like im diving in on a discussion here (although that is exactly what I am doing) but I am just after a simplified explanation of how to get SH3 Commander and what other mods I need...Ive never modded anything before. Do I just download and play?

I apologise in advance for my lack of technical ability!

You have the Steam version, right? Not sure of the nuances there; I use a DRM-free disc I got at Amazon as a new product.

On a new install of SH3, install GWX. It comes packed with JSGME, but it's an older version. Might want to get the latest version. Then install SH3 Commander.
Run JSGME and choose the GWX mods you want. A description of each is included in the GWX manual.
Run SH3 Commander (you'll want to pick some of the options here as well), then choose "Launch SH3" from within Commander.

Is that what you're looking for, Oakum?

Before that, for GWX 3 there are some config files that need to be added to the SH3 Commanders folder. I'm sure they are on the GWX Greywolves site, and here at Subsim download section.

Thanks again guys,

its basically me trying to get my head around how all this works and what each mod actually does. Its not my intention to ask repetetive or frustrating questions if its coming across that way.

Think i will start by downloading and seeing from there.

Ask any question you want. It does make it easier if you tell us if you are playing "stock" or with a super mod.
Enjoy the game.
