I've always done that, even with the not-too-realistic harbors. This one is the start of something big, I hope. I wish there was more of this kind of thing for SH4 as well.

Still-and-all, it's something to behold.

I've just transferred to Lorient, and that's a sight to behold, too. Although it's quite a bit different from the Lorient I 'remember'!

Almost rammed a seawall just coming out of my pen!

Well thfue58 and most others have moved to SH5 so Kiel looks unlikely
Unless the SH5 one can be reverse engineered as is near perfect
Also I know of someone who was creating one for SH3/4
Hope he can be persuaded to complete the work
Eh Alex

Can't say I blame people for dashing off to SH5, but I hope this doesn't mean SHIII is going to be abandoned now.

Sailor Steve · 05-06-10, 01:23 PM

I doubt that SH3 will be truly abandoned until SH5 has proven that it can do not only more than SH3 but that all the things we like about this one can be added back in as well. If and when SH5 can do all that none of us will care anymore.

I installed this mod and I must say it looks great!

Much more immersion around the ports. I just have a question, are the mines and nets positions around the ports changed or is the draggable mines/nets map still valid for navigation?

bigboywooly · 05-09-10, 03:00 PM

Good question
Pretty much as were apart from where terrain had moved
If you follow the escort out you will get a good idea of the clear path

Sailor Steve · 05-09-10, 05:55 PM

I had that same question myself, and being of a cowardly nature I took a look in the Mission Editor before setting out. For obvious reasons I ended up going out the southeast lock, which is closest to the starting point anyway.

MILLANDSON · 05-19-10, 06:42 AM

Does this mod work with the Lifeboats&Debris mod? Just that it says that they both use Sh3.sdl (whatever that is).

Thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind :P Found the previous post asking for help with this!

h.sie · 05-19-10, 06:57 AM

Try Aces Combined sh3.sdl V2 which contains all necessary sounds

MILLANDSON · 05-19-10, 09:44 AM

Yep, I spotted it (hence the edit)

I must say, it is pretty awesome... just bumped into the lock on my first run out though!

No....it's as in #128

Does that mean you're volunteering to create a new mine map and release it for us all to use?

h.sie · 05-28-10, 11:24 AM

it's part of realism that not all is perfect.

Jimbuna · 05-28-10, 03:41 PM

Simply study the screenshot in #128....all that is missing is the net on the eastern shoreline.

Sailing up the centre of the navigation channel (or following your escort out) has always been the safest route....so no change there.
