Though I was sent out from WIlhelmshaven with a "null" PQ I did follow my transmitted orders to patrol the area of quadrant AM18 and to maintain station until I received further orders.

"PQ NULL" is a known issue if you make changes to crew, weapons or the u-boat itself BEFORE the first patrol!
If you start a new career DO NOT improve the u-boat, drive your first patrol, then transfer to your desired base and THEN do the improvements you want to.

Concerning TRANSFER we meanwhile recommend to exit and reload the career after you see the popup-windows "New base ...".
This seems to be necessary because sometimes SH3 does not realize and save all the changes.
This also applies to "New base ..." during the patrol: save the game and exit, then reload.

I am using the Hi-Res-Fix and just noticed that when employing the CTRL+F11 buttons to record a screen shot, the bitmap image it generates crops several inches of the image on the right hand side of the screen completely off. The right margin includes the image of my Engineering officer but everything to the right of that icon is missing. Perhaps that function has always caused this effect, but I have only recently noticed this since installing LSH3_v5.1 and once again getting caught up in SH3 gameplay once more.

For screenshots we recommend external tools like Howie's Quick Screen Capture Tool: or PicPick (see http://www.picpick.org/).
Both have adjustable hotkeys and allow to set the quality of the screenshot.
I prefer PicPick because it has some more other features.

For Windows 7, in case you get full black screenshots, it might be necessary to adjust the properties of the SH3.EXE:
- right-click the icon for the program, click Properties, and then click the Compatibility tab.
- set "Disable desktop composition" and it should do fine!

Hi Blueduck!

What is the german word for "Disable desktop composition"?

What is this for a function?

Best regards,
Magic

Hi Magic1111,

have a look at this screenshot - you'll see the german description:




What function? Don't know - i don't use the "compatibility modus" within WIN7/64 Bit.

Wonderful, thx rowi!

Now everything is resolved!

With "Function" I meant, what the "Disable desktop composition" do! Now I know, when I set the hook as in your screenshot, this disable when I start the .exe the Aero-Function in W7!

Best regards,
Magic
