Of course. HT is Harbour Traffic mod by Rubini. And markhinov is right, there is a newer version out right now (1.45c)

About this bug, I have an english XP but my settings is of course set for swedish keyboard settings, (so I can type ÅÄÖ-letters :P )
Is that the bug you meant?

(Just to muddy the water a bit... Harbor Traffic 1.46 is out )

Thanks. Can I assume Harbor Traffic doesn't change the EnglishNames.cfg file?

No, the bug has to do with the European use of the comma (,) instead of the decimal (.) for decimal values, like 2.5 = 2,5

Th Visual Basic programs (VB6) and German Windows XP have the problem I have read.

oopz... i meant 1.46

EDIT: EnglishNames.cfg file can't be the problem, can it? I am using HT1.46, along with 'Sink Them All 2.2' mod. My EnglishNames file is heavily alterred due to mainly those mods, any all works fine... Except for DLF.

I will try the new .EXE provided by timetraveller...

No it's not the keyboard settings. Go to Control Panel, choose Regional and Language Options, from the Regional Options change Standards and formats from Swedish to English (United States). I'm using the ver-1 build-188 version of SH3 Inspector.

SH3 Inspector will work even if HT mod is installed. Except you get this message at the startup "DLF unit bypassed. Values missing from .sim file." but everything else works fine.

Let me know how it goes with the trials guys.

Sometime today I'll install Rub 1.44 and see what changes it makes the the EnglishNames.cfg files. I know it adds some units. Maybe there is also something messed up there.

marhkimov, are you up late, or just up real early?? hehe

West coast US time over here... near 3:00AM... what do you think? Should I sleep? Or should I allow my SH3 mod addiction to take over my life? All good questions...

Sleep's overrated anyway.

hehe I think it has already taken over. Too late.

Of course I get up early at 5AM (east coast time) to cruise the forum.

Now it works
Big thank's for your tip Sturm, now it works with only one message and I have all subs and can navigate without problems (and my ÅÄÖ also works :P )

@markhimov, About HT mod, I am using 1.46. Don't know why I was murmering about some other version

[timetraveller]

Okay, those still having problems with SH3Inspector, please try this new .EXE I compiled.

I found a couple of bugs, and have eliminated the error checking for the CFG file items since they are display only. I have a question or two for Beery on the Rub files for the new units. They should all show now, but the Type info and Class info may read "unavailable".

New .EXE for SH3Inspector (build 189)

www.delraydepot.com/tt/SH3Inspector.exe

Replace your old one with the one above.

Guys,

I've had some ideas on this topic, and have written a program which might qualify as an All-In-One file tweaker.

One of the reasons SH3 File Analyzer is so complicated (writing rules), is that the game devs kept coming out with patches regularly, and it needed to be flexible in how it located values within files (using a complicated search mechanism).

However, now that the patch situation is stable at 1.4b, and I doubt that there will be anymore game patches, a simple program can be written to tweak values using hard coded displacements for game variables, as they will not change.

More on this in a day or three.

TT

Coming soon. A tweaker with a simple interface. It uses a simple text file "driver" which most people can make for themselves. I'll have all the SH3 File Analyzer rules converted for it. All you'll need to know to make your own file specs are where the values are in the game files. If you can look at a hex editor and see where the value is, record its location, you can use SH3 Mini Tweaker to alter game values.

Sounds Like a great tool

So are you saying as long as I know where a hex figure is, I can programm it into this.

I want to fast tweak Hull armour and Hit points for the subs and this tools sounds great.

Can it also hold info from the zones.cfg?

Looking forward to trying it.
