SH3 Commander-The Complete Super Deluxe Thallium Commander's Special Ultimate Edition - Page 24

Having a weird problem with SH3 Commander Crew Management.

While I can pull up my crew and look at them, all the buttons are disabled and I can't award anything to anyone. The only buttons that work are Close and Crew List at the bottom.

Could this be because I updated my crew from within SH3? I've uninstalled and re-installed SH3 Commander. I'm running stock SH3 with just a couple of graphic mods (just tga file overlays -- nothing fancy).

Sorry, I'd already uninstalled SH3 and SH3 Cmdr in preparation to switching over to GWX. I'll be trying it again tonight and if the problem occurs again, I'll ss it and post it.

Was your boat out to sea at the time? Ordinarily the crew can only be managed in Commander while you are between patrols.

Greetings. Wow, was I ever surprised a new version of Commander was released. I was using was vers 3.00.161 for years now and thought final. Overjoyed is an understatement, it's now version 5.00.

I could hardly believe it. Thank you so much.

I just have one question though, Is the latest one compatible with WAC 4.1, because the last ones wern't apparently?

Kind regards.

Actually, the question should be the other way around - is WAC 4.1 compatible with SH3Cmdr R3.2? And to that, I can only say, I have no idea. Perhaps ask the question in the WAC 4.1 sticky thread.

On my Windows 7 64bit box I'm not able to run SH3 without first running a resolution changer program. Starting SH3 directly, or via SH3 commander simply results in a "Can not initialize 3D engine" error.

This seems to prevent SH3 Commander from making all the changes, or at least not being able to rollback.

Anyone else in the same boat as me having to use the 12noon Display changer and have some hints for getting it to work with SH3 Commander?

Thank you for your reply JScones, Yes you are right. Ill ask in WAC thread about it, but I think is an unresloved question there. I know been reports Commander is or isn't compatible, it's now natorious for, which why I said "apparently". I am sure we all missed such wonderful Commander, and in the newest version I hoped may solve is my question, but your right the mods compatability.
Kind regards,

I may, or may not, be having a Commander-related problem (the original question was posed here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=168411)

My question about Commander is this: my understanding from having read the manual is that, if you've started SHIII using Commander then exit the game, you don't have to restart the game using Commander as until I rollback (either manually or automatically) the changed settings are stored.

If I start SHIII using Commander and once the game has loaded, but prior to clicking on mission start, I then exit the game then restart SHIII direct, are the Commander changes still saved?

AHS Centaur RIP · 04-30-10, 02:44 AM

Greetings,
I have a quick question please. Is it right Commander should not be installed in the program files folder, is wrong place to put it?
Best wishes, Centaur

JScones · 04-30-10, 03:00 AM

Best not to if you are running Vista or Windows 7.

I think the answer is yes for each question. An easy way to check if this is so is to load one change via CMDR (say a time compression change) and see if it is the loaded game after it starts.
From reading your prior thread, it looks like you have incompatibilities in your mods causing the problem.

Question to JScones :

If instead of assigning a normal Kaleun name for my subsim carrier, I decide
I would like to give a Greek Mythological name. Would it be possible when I open SH3 ?
I suppose of course, that those names have to be written somewhere in some file.

Can you tell me :
1- If it's possible
2- What file(s) have to be modified and how
3- Some picture of ANY Kaleun would have to be associated with the Greek name.

Thank you JS.

JScones · 05-01-10, 08:26 AM

Enter whatever name or text you like in SH3Cmdr - there's no rule that you must enter a Germanic or "normal" name.

JMV · 05-01-10, 08:32 AM

Sorry, but I'm in no way a modder, can you please tell me what file has to be modified and how...

Thank you.
