Can i run all mods and patches with the Sh3 steam version? - Page 2

Nukesub · 03-29-14, 05:32 PM

o/ Hello fellow Kaleun!

I run steam and SH3 and all the mods below no problem. So, yes I think what you are asking can be done because I am doing it!

As far as I know the steam version comes at the latest patched version of SH3 and I installed GWX3 Gold and then Subcommander accordingly right after that installation.

GWX - 16km Atmosphere
GWX - Axis Mediterranean Aircraft Skins
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
GWX - Late War Sensors Snorkel Antennas
LifeBoats&Debris_v4
Pascal_Port_People
Torpedo damage Final ver2.0
North Atlantic Green 1.1
GWX - VIIC41 Player Sub
Ice Age
Real Depth Charge
New_clearsky_clouds
New Uboat Guns 1.2
GWX - Alternate Loadscreen - Full Circle
GWX - Captain America's Officer Icons
GWX - Main movie - 'Das Boot'

Thanks Blitzkrieg. I'll crack on today once I've dropped my mums flowers off. :thumbup:

Downloaded and it says V1.6b at the bottom of the main screen. Deleted my old career and took U-111 back out and now I get blank messages off my WO and BdU? I think ive hashed the mesages_en file.... Do you just drop all four message files into menu or copy and paste the new messages into _en? I love the configuration panel for this patch but cant face dud torpedoes yet and I dont understand the oxygen slider bars yet. I'll get there!! Thanks everyone!

Copy and past the new messages into the mesages_en.

If you read the documentation it will explain relatively in depth what ech option does

Riccardo1975 · 03-30-14, 12:23 PM

Thanks desertstriker. I'll have another read. My watch crew still dont have binoculars but i cant reload internally in bad weather above 16m etc. which is great Superb patch this is. Get this working 100% and then try the add on.

[QUOTE=Riccardo1975;2178151]Thanks Dark Knight.

I downloaded it off Steam and its a nightmare. Installed GWX, JGSME and SH3 commander but cant patch it so my watch crew have no binoculars etc....

Think I'll delete Steam and the full install and start again. Its only a fiver off Ubi!

Live and learn and thanks again. Subsim comes up trumps as usual...

Rich.

Looks like it doesn't end there either mates. I have some other stuff off of STEAM and stop by their SH forums from time to time. For SH3, its either how tough or easy it is to download GWX. For SH4, it is that STEAM will not include UBISOFTS 1.4 stock update, with it being sold still in the 1.3 causing either grumbling or confusion , and for SH5, a barrage of complaints that it is simply unable to either download, or crashes when it does. Without bashing STEAM overmuch, as I have had no problems with other downloads, it looks to be another case of Caveat Emptor where the SH series is concerned.

Riccardo1975 · 03-30-14, 04:40 PM

Ive changed my mind. With the help off my fellow subsimmers on here it wont be long till its running how I want it. Great forums full of VERY helpful people+perseverence=SH3 will realise the potential I know it has.

My gratitude is boundless.

The most immersive and mentally challenging game Ive ever played

Sorted the messages out, unzipped my mods in the correct folder and deleted/reinstalled sh3 commander. Now when i put v1.6b supplemental at the bottom of my mods list(with lifeboats n debris, additional ammo and a typeIX skin mod) and run sh3 commander i get "error" in the flotilla box? Says base error 8/39 5/41 and another 6/41 till 1944. If i remove the supplemental mod, no error. Any help appreciated. Nearly there...

Riccardo1975 · 04-01-14, 12:30 PM

Deleted it all and reinstalled sh3, gwx then commander. Avg antivirus reckons theres a virus present in sh3.exe when i patch with the hsiet patch.... Remove avg i think and try and patch it again.

desertstriker · 04-01-14, 12:43 PM

or just whitelist the sh3 folder

Riccardo1975 · 04-02-14, 01:16 AM

Whitelist? The virus was called Luhe.Mazec.L?

Thanks bud! Just rammed and sank a schooner at AM54, got the wreck marker on the map but no credit in the captains log. Seems a bit unfair.....

Riccardo1975 · 04-11-14, 02:32 PM

Hello everyone! Off the coast of Spain near Vigo. Tracked a ship. Its a dutch pelagic trawler. Gales, rain n two in the morning. 300 metres, bearing 320. Hard port, fire a T1 on fast, min depth. Torpedo hits, big explosion....

Ship reappears intact.

Hit it again.

Same thing.
This is a weird bug. Anyone had this happen to them?
