Gee you can't win, I don't know what to suggest at this stage since we already have lost even higher resolutions and can't Alt-Tab out of the game to use mods like Anvart's Flags and Pennants. What to do?

Hi Reece,

The Seeadles´s dll works for me, very well, with analog (VGA) cable AND with HDMI cable, no differences.

I also use/have Anvart´s Flags and Pennants without need to alt+tab. They are always disposable using just in game key commands, working flawless. Why you need to alt tab to use them??

ATI user have a problem with alt+tab, not only with SH3

@ Rubini, PM sent.

Hi Seeadler, the Alt-Tab problem is only with this new WS mod, normally SH3 with or without the old HiRes mod works fine no issue at all.

Any idea on how I can get rid of the vertical squashing, all attempts to change horz or vert frequency fail, just snaps back to default, even if I change settings to manual.

I am sure that the fix/problem lies with using analog/digital.

Would someone be kind enough to explain what the heck these numbers mean:

Mat 0=data/menu/data/insigne.tga
Crop 0=0,0,0.169922,0.330078
Mat 1=data/menu/data/insigne.tga
Crop 1=0.170898,0,0.169922,0.330078
Mat 2=data/menu/data/insigne.tga

The load times are killing me for trial and error.

I´m not a expert on menu_1024, but "Mat" refer to the tgas used by this item, "Crop" is the size/position/part of that material that will appears on the screen.

By the way, why long loading times? Just use empties campaign files, enable them with JSGME and you will have much more short loading times. Perfect for mod work.

Thanks, Rubini! I downloaded the blank campaign file from the downloads section. I noticed it was way faster than loading a normal campaign, but it seems like it's about the same time as loading a training mission, which is what I have been doing. It's still a painful wait, and seems like how I spend most of my "modding" time... waiting for loads!

Am I doing something wrong?

The mod works on mine for the most part-only bug I can see is that in the navmap and crew management screens, the portion on the right side of the screen retains the background of whatever station I was previously at and when I move my mouse over that area, the screen "screenshots" it's position constantly making a trail of mouse pointers behind where I move the mouse - fortunately it does not interfere with the part of the screen on the left where the station controls are. Using Windows 7 64 bit with
GWX3,
das boot clothes,
TMT v2
Water Exhaust mod
Officer hat mod

I am using a 18" widescreen monitor with 1366x768 native res, and not 1360x768--could this be the problem??

Any thoughts?

Eagerly awaiting a version compatible with OLC Gui with the manual targeting tools in the periscope!!! Any way to manually do this on my own now, or would it be overly complicated?
