Hi JS

I reinstalled SHC and Cfg files. My career Kpt shows but no buttons at bottom of screen.

I can't take a screenshot as this Laptop is set up for offline gameing.

No internet, antivirus... Nothing to run in background.

There's nothing showing to tick to launch my career.

No Rollback button or Setting Options button showing.

If you can show me a screenshot I can tell you exactly whats not showing

Nothing is wrong. Jaeson Jones did a marvellous job with his JSGME. But it is to you – the user – to use it in the right way.



For example, install JSGME in the right folder and give it the opportunity to connect to the SH3-installation (if you've got several installations of SH3, that means, for example, GWX 3.0 Gold, NYGM, LSH3 or WAC). Just “tell” JSGME where it must look for the program files. The installation routine will ask you.


I have installed most of all “Super-Mods” mentioned above and didn't have any problem with JSGME. By the way – it's time to say “Thank You” again to Jeason Jones. It runs on a Desktop computer and a Laptop computer. Jeason – what would we have done without your program??? For my person, i must say: NOTHING. I could not work without JSGME.



Greetings

I think before I post. And I shut my mouth when others are asking for help and I have nothing to offer to help.

As I asked in my PM, are you running normal or large sized fonts? Given your screen resolution is presumably at 1024x768 and SH3Cmdr is only 857x621, then the only likely cause is running fonts greater than standard size.

Alternatively, how large is your task bar? If you dock it to one side, do the buttons appear? If your task bar is greater than about 150 pixels high, it will overlay SH3Cmdr.

Default SHC shuts down after loading SH3

So I run SHC, everything seems ok. Then i use it to launch SH3, and SHC shutsdown. SH3 loads ok, but none of the settings from SHC are present.

It used to stay open during the game. I don't remember changing anything that would affect this. I have reinstalled SHC.

Any ideas?

Not sure what you mean by SH3 Commander continuing to run during the game - do you mean that when you launched the game from Commander and then exited the game, the Commander interface window would still be open just where you left it?

Cuz that's not what it does on my install - if I want to do anything in Commander after exiting the game, I have to reopen the program. I always assumed that it shut itself down after launching the game's .exe file, it certainly shuts the window down by itself when the game loads on my rig. And all the changes that Commander should be making to the game are in there.

This may be a stupid question that doesn't need asking, and please don't take offense if it is - but when you say you are using Commander to start SH3 - you do mean that you're clicking the check mark in the bottom right corner of the interface, the one that says "Launch SH3!" when you put the mouse cursor over it. Right?

Yeah, i use the button.

Up until abotu a week ago, the SHC window stayed open in the background. Now it closes itself. And most (If not all) the changes i've made in SHC, like fatigue model, dont get applied. Since I've setup my crew to run on no fatigue (see other threads :P), this is really annoying.

EDIT: things like fatigue model and skip intro movies wasn't being applied.

I just turned off the auto-rollback feature, and SHC stayed up this time..... lets see if it works.

EDIT2: Ok it skipped the movies. Hopefully the rest of the changes will be made. Having not played in about a week due to this is getting annoying.

SH3Cmdr DOES NOT stay open when SH3 is running...unless, perhaps you are running a very old version of SH3Cmdr (ie pre 3.x), in which case I can't remember, or care, what it does.

SH3Cmdr does not even load SH3.exe directly. It loads a small TSR which in turn loads SH3.exe. As soon as SH3Cmdr runs the TSR, SH3Cmdr closes.

I suspect you have a rollback problem or other file integrity issue if changes are not appearing in game, especially if, as you state, SH3Cmdr used to stay open. Again, unless you are using a very old version of SH3Cmdr (in which case STOP!), this won't occur.

I checked for updates, and I'm using the current version.

Unchecked auto-rollback, and it stayed open this time, and the files got updated correctly, and I'm enjoying the game again. ::shrug::

I'll see what I can find, but it's not really broken per se.

I'll just have to edit the preset .cfg file that SHC provides (can't remember it's name off the top of my head), and not the basic.cfg anymore.
