Sinking Uboat

sovereign73811A · 05-29-07, 11:49 PM

Something odd keeps happening when i load sh3 with GWX and SH3 Commander. This hasnt happened before. For some reason, my boat keeps sinking absurdly fast all the way to 500 m, without crunching into a tin ball. Then it gets stuck there. In external view the water is black and the uboat is missing. Help!!!

Go into your .../data/campaigns/campaign folder and open the campaign_LND.mis, campaign.SCR.mis and campaign_RND.mis files using notepad. See if the line is WindRand=0 and change it to WindRand=1. This has corrected the problem for me.

Windrand is set to 1. Im using that weather mod, SH3 Weather if it helps.

Check the same files and see if Windspeed is 0, if it is try setting it to 1.

I have known this occur as a result of saving whilst submerged as well

If the values are set at '1' try going back to a previous save and see if the problem persists
