Moding projects news

[Aces]

Hi chaps,

I thought I'd start this thread to post news and answer FAQs on my modding projects. It is easier for me to post to one thread.

Super Pens: (Current Version = v4) GWX3, WAC and LSH versions available.

There are now three (v4) versions of the mod for GWX, WAC and LSH III additonally there is a hotfix available for the WAC version of the mod.

To answer some questions.

The mod has always been designed to work with St.Nazaire. If you start from any other base with the mod enabled you will only get the pen interiors and no pen exterior models.

I have, this morning, been working on making the relevant changes to other base files so that the pens will be visible in these other bases.

The GWX version requires the following two mods be installed before the Super Pens Mod.

Super Turms: (current Version = v4) GWX3 and LSHIII versions available.

I am currently working on making v4 of this mod compatable with LSH and all is going well. After releasing this mod I shall turn my attentions to the next version (v5) in which I hope to add Privateer's MG-34s when they are available. again I'm hoping to produce GWX and LSH III versions of this mod.

Update: I have released the LSH version of this mod, please see this post for details: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=174847

Multi-mod compatability Mod: (current Version = Release v1.3) for GWX3.

Currently this mod doesn't incorporate entries in the sh3.sdl file to support Tomson's sound pack. Likewise the only GUI supported is the Hitman GUI. I hope that I have the time in the future to add support for the OLC GUI and Thomson's sound pack.

The multimod mod contains the Super Turms content and thus there is no need to install Super Turms if you have installed the multimod mod.

General News:

All of these mods (especially the mod list for the multimod and the Super Pens Mod) are BIG and I reccommend using either the 3GB patch for XP or the 4GB patch for windows 7 etc.

For users of Windows XP please see this post http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...&postcount=230 for details of and download link for Anvart's /3Gb batch file. Remember to backup you un-edited boot.ini and also your sh3.exe before you run the batch file.

Please bare with me I only have one pair of hands and there are only a certain number of hours in a day and this work takes a long while especially when testing and developing in campaigns and now across three Super Mod platforms.
