"shsim.act" file error message

BBury · 05-07-07, 11:52 AM

Does anyone know what this file does (shsim.act)? I've had this file come up at the source for a error message after a CTD. It's happened to me twice in a campaign and once again last night in a multiplay. It also happened to another friend online a couple nights ago.

The only thing I can relate to it's cause is when we were close in to a ship blowing up. If I recall they were all DD's if that makes a difference. Can't remember which class. I can only assume it may be video related since it seems to occur with a dynamic event with lots of special effects.

Both my friend and I use these mods on top of 1.2.

Nobody else has had a CTD with this file as the culprit?

Sorry...cant help, but remember some issues related to a .act file into SH III forum some time.

Try using search engine there...

Good luck !

I have not seen a CTD since 1.2. You have a lot of mods, either your current game file is bonked or you may have some kind of mod conflict. That's about all that I can think of. Sorry I cannot help.
