Living Silent Hunter III V5 - Download – Mod’s Tool’s, Info’s and Support..

Hi guys,

For those who have asked about the increasing AI's anti-submarine tactics, I also thought about that when I first tried LSH3v5. However, I hope the following is a good example of what to expect.

I began a career in October 1940 so I could sail from the French coast. The first place I had to patrol was south-west of Portugal. I found a convoy and shadowed until night-time. I then slipped in behind the escorts and sank 3 ships initially before returning to the convoy about 3-hours later sinking 2 more. The escorts didn't do a great deal.

I re-armed from one of the German freighters and returned to the same location. Over the course of 4 patrols I had attacked 3 further convoys and numerous single merchants totalling 158,000 tons since starting the career.

I was beginning to think the sensors or DD tactics were weak. Boy, was I wrong! On the next trip a large west-bound convoy was reported. It had at least 5 escorts and consisted of large tankers and freighters - a perfect target. As with previous convoys I waited until around midnight before approaching very slowly at decks awash (7m) to allow surface attacks. I hit 2 tankers and crash-dived and set a course about 120 degrees from where I had attacked. Minutes later I was being pinged! Using the freecam I soon saw a destroyer was holding positions close to me, and another 2 were circling with depth charges.

I tried to out-manouvre them over a 2-hour period but they were getting closer and closer with their depth-charges! At one point I thought I had found an escape route, but they soon relocated me. Eventually I began to sink, damage was critical throughout the u-boat and blowing ballast wasn't enough to prevent my destruction!

The tactical changes from 1940 to mid-1941 were obvious to see! They knew where to look and the attack was intense!

So, hats off to you guys for making a first-class mod!

Anyone who is unsure about trying it, do so, I strongly recommend LSH3v5!!

Finally, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!

My setup is:

CPU: Intel Centrino2 P8400 at 2.27Gh, 2.28Gh(Core Duo)
4Gb DD3 RAM
Windows7 (via upgrade from Vista) 64 Bit Home Premium
Video card: nVidia GeForce 9800m GTS with 1Gb Ram
Driver: driver 182.xxxm at 1440x900 resolution (I plan on installing the new 195 driver later)
nHancer2.5.7 for 64 bit system

Every time I install the resolution fix, I get the 1024x800 resolution and my frame rate crashes.

Thanks for your help. I would really like to up the resolution especially since I have a 48inch Samsung HDTV monitor available, and my video card supports it.

Dear Irish1958,

the DX9HiResFix does not support any resolution higher than 1280*1024, becuase SH3 does n't. So the max parameters you might adjust in d3d9.cfg are resX=1280, resY=1024.

Only by extreme provocation do they seem to alter their course (I surfaced in the middle of a 44 convoy) I sank 2 BS and 2 Carriers plus merchants with LTD torps and still no interest, until I surfaced, very strange.

What are we doing wrong?

Hello Ridley,

Is this compatible with GWX3, partly or fully?
thx

Hello Sir Higgins,

no it is NOT compatible with GWX. Neither partly nor fully.
It is a Stand alone SuperMOD with Additional MODs "on board".

Hi guys,

Can someone please tell me how to turn the swastikas back on for the flags please?

I find it historically correct to see them. I understand for a lot of the you it's not possible to display them but as an Englishman we see them all the time on TV etc., so it isn't an issue here.

Cheers!
