Fatigue question ...

von Kinderei · 11-30-11, 12:42 AM

what mod of fatigue do you use

I'm usin' the GWX 8 hour fatigue and evidently I can't manage cause all my guys are wore out especially the officers as there are only to bunks

Is there a model where the guys can get rest anywhere on board as long as there is no action as would have been in real life

If you use SH3 Commander, you can choose settings, if so

Use SH3 Commander, and select "No Fatigue".

Other than that, there are plenty of bunks on board, just not quite enough for everybody. I used to rotate them every four hours and everybody was happy until a storm came along, then it had to be every two hours, so I finally gave in and went to the SH3C "No Fatigue" setting. Now everybody's happy.

They fixed that in SH4 by putting the crew into three shifts, and they rotate themselves.

They fixed it even more in SH5 by getting rid of the crew altogether.

I'm usin' the SH3 Commander with the GWX 8 hour mod ...

Maybe I need to switch the guys out more often eh

Does TC make a difference in the way fatigue works either by on or off shift

If not using SH3Commander, you can eliminate fatigue entirely in either stock SH3 or GWX by editing

C:/Ubisoft/Data/Cfg/Basic.cfg

[FATIGUE_COEF]
replace all positive values with zero.
Leave all negative values (found only in comp 6 and comp 7) untouched.

This removes fatigue from the game so you don't have to spend a lot of time on crew management.

Your edited file should look like this:

That will help. I know I said I swapped them every four hours, but I could have waited longer. That said, in a storm every two hours is vital, which with SH3's ongoing bad weather can become very tedious. Hence my finally joining the "No Fatigue" crowd.

I'm lazy so I use the 'no fatigue' option with SH3 Commander.

Maky · 11-30-11, 08:04 AM

I try to play this game with as much realism as possible but crew fatigue is one option I just turn off.

"whining sim like crew" ruins it for me.
