[REL] SH3 Commander Release 3.1 is now available!

[JScones]

I have just released R3.1.3. Changes:

• Improved handling of old, dead careers (no more "List index" error) - this is just a cleaner way to handle an error that results when users don't take heed of the SH3Cmdr installation instructions.
• Now correctly sets the U-boat type when continuing a career with a new commander - bug introduced in R3.0.
• Now correctly randomises crewmen names and experience for all U-boat types - bug introduced in R3.1.1.

Basically just a few bug fixes and a more graceful way of handling a user-created problem.

Downloading and installing
R3.1.3 is cumulative, in that it includes the changes made in R3.1.1 and R3.1.2. So installation is EXACTLY the same...

IF YOU ARE RUNNING SH3CMDR R3.1.x simply use SH3Cmdr's "Updates" feature. It will download a small zip file. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS UNZIP THE CONTENTS OF THE ZIP FILE INTO YOUR \SH3 COMMANDER FOLDER, OVERWRITING the files already there (only two will be updated). Nothing else needs to be done. You don't even need to rollback. And you certainly don't need to reinstall GWX or NYGM config files.

IF YOU ARE RUNNING SH3CMDR R3.0 OR EARLIER you must download the FULL installation to get these improvements. Go to the first page in this thread and follow the instructions. Do not download via SH3Cmdr's "Updates" feature. PLEASE pay particular attention to the instructions if you are a GWX or NYGM user and PLEASE read through this thread before posting that it's all too confusing.

Now I am pleading to the (hopefully) few - this software has taken MANY MANY HOURS to develop, so all I ask is that you take JUST ONE MINUTE to carefully read the installation instructions above. If you don't understand them, please read them again. I cannot make them any simpler. In the end, following them means that we both benefit from a lack of pain and frustration.
