Can't enter flak or deck guns and also All Stop issues

hachiman · 06-14-17, 11:34 AM

Hi

Just reinstalled SHIII after a long absence. Having a couple of problems.
F10 and F11 man the flag and deck guns don't work. And I have manned them with crew. So far I have to reply on the crew to fire the guns and I can't take over.

Also the All Stop key isn't working. It's supposed to be ~ which is to the left of the number 1 on an American KB, but I am UK and the symbol is `.

Any help appreciated

Sorry.

1 other issue I am having is when I am locking targets the mouse cursor disappears. I left click to get it back and end up firing torpedoes. Is there a way to avoid this?

Thanks

I can't help with the deck guns or the all stop, but the accidental firing of torpedoes is caused by having the resolution at 1920×1080 I believe. My workaround for that is hitting the esc key before I come out of the periscope so the cursor doesn't hit fire and kill some innocent fish when I exit.

Edit. I just noticed you can get to the deck and AA guns by hovering your mouse to the top left of the screen.

Fixed it just by goining with normal resolution as that got me in the gun positions.

Also fixed the all stop issue by switcging from UK to US Keyboard.

Thanks for replies.
