Default GWX team suggests you create a ―dummy‖ career

Hi guys,

Getting back into SH3 with the GWX Onealex edition (along with everyone else), after having played GWX back in 2020.


Read through steps to create a "Dummy Career" as mentioned in the GWX manual, under Game Bugs/Saved Games, Page 14 (PDF 27/644)
- "Players who have just one career in stock Silent Hunter III will occasionally find their career has no saved games . . . . . .so the GWX team suggests you create a ―dummy‖ career (e.g., for Leutnant z. S. Fubar) before starting your real career to ensure this does not happen."

GWX OneAlex also makes reference to this on 8/64 ".
-"For the stable operation of the save system, it makes sense to keep a dummy career in which the boat went on one trip and is now in the database. "

So what do I actually do to satisfy the criteria, and how far do I have to go into the mission to initiate this successful Career SAVE?

Select "Default Player" / Accept / New Career /
Select 1939 / 1st Flortille
Mission (Select Map) - Read -"PAtrol Area AO44" - Kiel to Kiel
START


So can I just SAVE & EXIT, after viewing the boat in port. Or do I have to take the boat out to see and leave there, or return to port completing the patrol. Obviously I'll never be returning to use this "Default Player" again, moving on to create my careers through SH3 Commander !


P.S.
I posted here because the GWX (Grey Wolves eXpansion Mod) forums seems inaccessible at the moment, and searching seemed to only reveal posts from "2007"

Default Re Captain Johno,

Captain Johno, I do the same thing. I create a "dummy" career, never to return to it. I just roll out for a bit and make sure all is working fine. Exit and save, after about 20-30 minutes, regardless of the "Save Game Suggestions". Now I've got one in the data base. I usually name it something like "OneAlex Tester" and leave it there forever. Now for my real or serious careers, I do follow the "SAVE GAME Suggestions" to avoid issues down the road. Trust me on this. I don't think I've ever had a save reload problem. Hope this helps.

Welcome aboard mate!

Did you install SH3 outside program files(×86)?
Did you apply 4gb patch or LAA?

Put SH3.exe with W7 compatibility (or XP) and administrator privileges.

Use the correct GUI for your display resolution.

If you want a very stable modded SH3 try NYGM Steel Coffins. But I have GWX Onealex and works fine in my W11 PC.

Good hunt!

Dear,
"Did you install SH3 outside program files(×86)?"
I think it no need "install", just unpack to any folder.
And run.

no additional mod via JSGME
I tried many locations,

fisrt location was c:/Users/user/silent hunter 3
automatically set from Ubisoft.
Then i try just replace in this folder Toyota's mod. and its worked

I move folder to d:\ i run unpacked in other folder,
I remove ubi instlation, I tried new folder ubi instalation,
remove again ubi. All same result:
Oryginal works, Toyota works (still), Onealex - only academy.

I remeber i tried also validation, and it was do something, but now, validation not work, it send me message "run as administrator" even if i run as administrator.
