Problems with Screensaver

[AzraelMedivh]

Hi, I'm one of the new guys here.
I have a Problem with Screensavers. If I press Ctrl+F11 he makes one but he didn't put it into the SH3 Folder. If i import it to paint, there will only display a black picture. The same thing if I use the button "print". Can anybody help me with it, please?

Second, if I arrive at my home base, there is a marching band. Can I change the music?

Thirdly, I found this thread http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ght=PROMOTIONS does it work propper or are there any problems if a change the cfg files?

I'm playing with GWX3 but if I have bad weather, my crew on the tower does not wear any raining gear? This is a problem that I have only since a few days.

I'm grateful for any tipps and hints you can give me, thx.

Sorry I can't help with that one.

There is a file in the Data/Sound folder called Fanfara_01. If you have another march you want to play, simply name it to Fanfara_01 and install it.

Or, if you really want to spread your wings, and have the memory, try this mod. It has 25 different band tunes that change randomly.

Sorry, I don't know anything about that one either

The bad-weather gear is tied directly to the ability to use the guns in bad weather. If you're using a mod that allows the guns to be fired in any weather the bridge crew will never wear their raincoats. The default setting is 7 m/s. I think GWX is set for 11 m/s, which is a good compromise.

Gute jagd!

First of all, what you are trying to do is called making "screenshots (German Wiki link)". Making images of whatever is on your screen at that very moment. And one way or another save to a file. A "screensaver (German Wiki link)" is commonly known as a small program that creates interesting effects on your screen (animations, slideshows of personal pictures) when your computer is not doing anything for a while.

Second, what Windows version are you using? It may help in identifying the cause. As since Vista, Windows 7 and 8 Windows doesn't like it when programs create files inside the "Program Files" folderstructure on the C-drive. This happens when you are creating a screenshot. Windows probably ignored your attempt. Or denied it because you weren't able to respond to it by entering a administrator password. As it was hidden in the background because the game was full screen. With Windows XP you will not be prevented making files in the Program Files folder structure. Also, if you did not install the game inside C:\Program Files\SilenthunterIII, but in something like c:\games\SilenthunterIII, then you would have avoided this problem also. It should eventually create .bmp files in the base folder, with a timestamp in the filename like this: SH3Img@1-11-2012_14.0.57_699.bmp
