IIRC, I read this mod is supposed to be starforce compatible now, but still no joy getting it to pass the tests.

I don't think anyone will be able to provide you with a copy of the .exe, patched or otherwise, as distribution of the file itself wouldn't be kosher. However h.sie has been known to work with the .exe files that users already have to see if he can get them to patch successfully. If nothing else he's very helpful, if he doesn't show up here relatively soon you might try sending him a PM to see what he suggests.

Finally got around to installing this and I have to say that, after years of having to manually drag numnutz to the bridge, I nearly shed a tear when I saw him already there waiting for me. My boy Bernard is now a man.

Thank you so much for this mod. The continued improvement of this game after all these years leaves me in awe of the SH3 modding community.

...very busy at the moment with real life issues, so please excuse me for not having answered for the last 2-3 weeks.

@those_who_cannot_patch: you get a PM soon

Hi there!!
First of all as this is my first post here I want to say hello and thank you to all the modders out there for the work they have done! This game still rocks after such a long time, it is simply awesome!

h.sie
What you have done is truly magnificent. Thank you!
So far I could test your beta patch version V15G2 with LSH5.1 and I stumbled upon something.
I don’t know if this is a faulty installation from my side, a bug, a feature or simply still on the to-do list. It is about the blurred periscope vision above 4 knots. It works in my game with the u-boat type VII but not with type IIa. Even at 5 knots or higher I have a very clear vision through the periscope.
I had not enough time to test other uboat types so far.

Has someone else made the same experience that the blurred periscope vision is not working with the IIa?

h.sie if you don’t have time to answer, no problem, real life is more important!

h.sie · 08-05-11, 05:28 AM

@BigFin: Thanks, I could reproduce the reported problem and already know the reason: The speed-dependent blur effect is activated for depths below 11m. The Type IIa has Periscope depth of about 11m. Added -> Todo-List. Will be fixed in future releases.

Wolfstriked · 08-05-11, 04:52 PM

Great to see you back,Hsie.

. I was here on a regulary basis but I had no time for writing...

Wolfstriked · 08-05-11, 05:32 PM

Just in case you missed it.....u can reload on surface of stormy seas if you dive down to below 40m and then instantly rise again.

h.sie · 08-05-11, 05:46 PM

@Wolfstriked: I cannot reproduce that. I guess you havn't the patched Sh3Sim.act from the Supplement folder on the right place in the install directory....

Wolfstriked · 08-05-11, 06:04 PM

I just put the Supplement to V15G1 (JSGME) folder into the mods folder....is that wrong?

Also,I just reread the Supplement instructions and noticed it says to copy the patched EXE into the supplement mod folder.I put it into the default SH3 directory C:\Program Files\SilentHunterIII

So confused right now sorry.

h.sie · 08-05-11, 06:11 PM

I explained inexact, sorry.

I meant: After enabling the Supplement Mod, the patched Sh3Sim.act should have replaced the original one....

Wolfstriked · 08-05-11, 07:00 PM

Thanks Hsie,but still confused.....if its only on my part I will find out why and post here in case anyone else runs into it.
