ARB WideGui 1920x1080 - Page 16

klh · 05-05-20, 07:23 AM

Windows 10 hasn't been a problem (so far) after I fixed my shortcut properties for the desktop icon. Unfortunately that took me a while to sort out.

Compatibility mode (Windows 7)
Run this program as an administrator
Start in: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII"

The last one was causing it to crash after the startup splash screen. I figured that out by accident when I realized that it ran when I started from the sh3.exe file, but not from the start menu shortcut.

I'm running an AMD Radeon HD 7700 graphics card. After I turned on GPU scaling it worked fine.

Greeting Captains,
sorry for my question but im a total noob with mods. Is it right that i put the files in the extracted ARB folder into the silent hunter 3 folder and not in the mods folder, even so with the arb fix? And where i have to put those 3 source files?

No Dopen, you have to use JSGME and drop the mod + fix into the created MOD folder! Then activate it via JSGME.
On side note, i think without JSGME and dropping files directly into your Game/data should work too...but not very reversible.

Ok i will try it out to install them into the mod folder, but whats about the 3 "source files". And what does this files do? I cant find a instruction about them.

Fifi · 05-21-20, 03:49 PM

What do you call source files exactly?

Dopen · 05-21-20, 04:12 PM

The first Page shows 3 downloads, ARB, ARB Hotfix and Source. There are 3 files on mediafire to download when i use the source link.

Fifi · 05-22-20, 12:55 AM

You only need ARB & ARB Fix.
The source download is usually for modders to get the source for tweaks.

On side note you will find additional mods inside the ARB main download.
(Changing dials looking to your liking etc)

Ok i will try to fix it Ok i will try to fix it

The ARB gui is a great piece of work, and really brings this 15 year old game to the present day. I have been trying to make a few tweaks since the last official update, particularly with the TDC salvo/single selector dials. I could use some help from someone who knows the dials.cfg and menu_1024_768.ini files.

What I have found is that for the TDC menu screen (F6) which works correctly, there are entries in dials.cfg for the Salvo_mode [Dial7], Tube_Salvo_Sel [Dial9], and Tube_Single_Sel [Dial8]. The dial hex address matches the corresponding entries in menu_1024_768.ini.

When I look at the entries for the attack periscope (F3), UZO (U), and observation periscope (O), the Tube_Single_Sel dial is missing. I'm guessing that this explains why in those screens, the selector dial is non-functional when in single mode.

Dial Name, TDC, Attack, Obs, UZO
Salvo_mode, [Dial7], [Dial62], [Dial68], [Dial82]
Tube_Salvo_Sel, [Dial9], [Dial57], [Dial63], [Dial77]
Tube_Single_Sel, [Dial8], none, none, none

Can someone take a look and suggest what to do to fix it? I don't want to rebuild and renumber the whole file if I'm on the wrong track. I also don't know how to tell what hex address to use in the definition.

Thanks!

Thanks. I had read that Commander solves part of the issue, but I'm not using it. The original gui appeared to hard code the salvo/single selector labels so that they would change with each class of boat. The commander files just change the background, but it doesn't seem to fix the selector dial itself.

Hello guys! I keep getting the problem that the navigation map is split down the middle, and I have done everything that I could find in order to fix this. I do believe the problem is that I can't run the .batch file when I'm trying to patch the game. Every time i try it says either:

"'binpatch' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Fail.

Press any key to continue . . ."

or

"Offset out of range: 0xa5dc6

Fail.

Press any key to continue . . ."

This problem goes for every patch of fix that requires me running a batch file
Can anyone help me with this issue?
