GWX 3.0 NAV MAP and TDC

last1976 · 09-21-09, 08:03 AM

Hi

Before the questions begin. Yes I have installed GWX 3.0 over an clean installation of SH3 Version 1.4b and Yes I have tried different downloads of the Package and NO I dont have the Problem neither in Stock SH3 nor in LSH 4.0.

My Problem is that if I Zoom in the Map (Navigation or TDC) this black square

appears at a certain Zoom Faktor. If i zoom in more the Square grows with zoom.

Please Help.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have received your PM, but have chosen to answer you here incase someone else has the same problem, this thread can be referred to.

It seems that somehow one or more of your files have become corrupt.

Download the following file, extract it to your MODS folder in your GWX 3.0 installation... and enable it with JSGME as you would with any optional mod.

(GWX U-boat .SHP files.zip)

Please return and let us know if this sorts your problem.

Please also have patience my friend.

^ I suspect the issue is more serious than the overlay TGA's being corrupt.

I would need to check my install but that overlay should not appear in a correct GWX install. It's a remnant from Stock. Also, this issue, while it manifests as a black square (due to corrupted alpha channel) it always displays itself as a fully sized black square. As GWX uses a (IIRC) a 1500m overlay, the OPs square is too small.

I suspect the entire Submarine folder is nerfed but I can't confirm that until I check to see if the Stock Overlay is still embedded within the GWX U-Boat DAT files.

@ last1976

Did GWX install with no error messages?
Did you MD5 check the downloaded files?
Is this issue displayed with every user available Uboat?

KL has given you a start point, please report back on that and let us know before I start digging further.

Don't panic, we've seen this before and (barring GFX card incompatibilities) it's been fixed.

Hi Guys thanks for your quick answers.

@Danlisa
no error messages in installation
yes I have controlled the files
and yes the Problem is in every Type of Boat

@KL

Unfortunatly your "Repair Mod " don t work, the Problem remains the same.

I ve now solved it partly for me by copying the stock "shp" files in the submarines folders and the black sqare is gone.
Unfortunatly I have to abandon the AngleCircle ( don t know the correct word in English) in this solution.

But I think I can handle it.
Surely I will be thankfull anyway for a solution with the GWX Circle.
