[REL] War Ace Campaign (WAC) 5.0 2017 - Page 3

Doolar · 10-02-17, 12:22 PM

Sorry but my lack of computer skills are standing in my way. I read the manual and installation instructions but I'm a bit confused on how to get this all running. For example there are other Mod files besides Waracecampaign 001. what do I do with Waracecampaign 002,003 and 004. I'll be back with another question after this one is answered Thanx Jerry CA45

I did not even expect that such a thing could happen and there will be a continuation!
Many thanks HanSolo78!

Will have something to do on cold winter evenings ...

Is there a New MaGui Mod ~ U-BOOT_HAHD Edition 1024x768?

@HanSolo78

Got to get it work, played first 2 patrols with IIA in 1939. There shouldnt be added Baltic campaign - then its very slow and unstable. Without it it works flawless, i am using only Ahnenerbe GUI mod and V16B1 patchkit. All is working well and the graphics and effects are amazing.

Great work HanSolo78

HanSolo78 · 10-02-17, 01:37 PM

@ Anvar1061

I know about it

No new HAHD GUI

@Doolar Semmler

Just open 001 with 7 zip. The other files will autimatically be extracted from 7 zip to the destination you choose.

@ozzysoldier& von faust

You give some undetailed information.
What does 4GB mean?

What I need: Operating system, RAM installed, 4GB patch installed over SH3. exe?

Starting SH3 in Win7 compability mode?

JuanLiquid · 10-02-17, 01:40 PM

Thank you for the effort!! I'm really willing to play this game.

Things I noticed using your HSIE patch/Atlantic campaign/Annenerbe Widescreen mod:
- I cannot use the periscope disk (the one is on the top of the screen) to aid me to calculate ships speed. I was used to click on it to show it.
- With manual torpedo settings, I still can see the distance/aob/speed on the notepad - it shouldn't!
- 16 min to load a single misión :/ It's like old spectrum days, I'm going to split the campaign files - that's the one I can solve.

Thank you!
You mean stuttering or crashes to desktop?

Big campaign mean many ships and this need much CPU power.
Without Atlantic_Baltic campaign there wont be any historical events.... just stock SH3 traffic

But if that is ok for you

10-02-17, 02:01 PM

Good to see that you've finally released this supermod ! Thanks for your work !

Though, I would like to know if it deserves to buy a new PC before installing it !

Could anyone create a video of a pure WAC 5.0 full gameplay ?

HanSolo78 · 10-02-17, 02:16 PM

@Kendras

Unfortunaely I dont think PCs from today are very good for SH3.
Actually the SH3. exe file would need an overhaul.
64 bit support and multi core support would help a lot regarding RAM usage and CPU power.
8 cores and up do not help SH3 in any way... unfortunately

Fubar2Niner · 10-02-17, 02:36 PM

@Han

One quick question if you don't mind. Can I install WAC 5.0 using Blitz SH3-Front End ? Is Hsies patch different for WAC? Likewise the 4GB patch? Also I already have Commander installed, how does your commander-light differ, can I use the version that comes with SH3FE?

Sorry yes I realise that's four questions

Many thanks and best regards.
