just wanted to mention that I fixed my issue, in case it helps anyone else: For some reason, I can't capture GWX 1.0 if OBS is set to capture the entire display. When I instead point OBS at only fullscreen applications, it works fine. I'm sure this varies from machine to machine but it made a huge difference for mine.

Thank you very much for your kind words, rik007. I know the whole team appreciates them.

Have you tried fully tearing down your installation and starting from scratch after ensuring that all instances of save game folders are deleted from your PC?

My first thoughts are that you have missed an installation step somewhere.
I also recommend closely following the installation video and the downloadable text installation guide, line by line.

Hallo to you all!
First of all, the mod is great and I'm enjoying it so far! But for some reason I'm not able to hear ship explosions. The ship explodes and it's dead silent, despite being right next to it. Is this a bug or did i fail to install the mod correctly? I've rewatched Wolfpacks guide multiple times and I'm pretty sure I installed it correctly. Everything else works as intended. Just the explosion sounds don't.
Thank you and continue your great work!

(edit: I tested it and it only happens with the enhanced special effects submod. Without it the sound works perfectly fine.)

First of all congratulations on the new release, I still remember fondly playing your GWX mod almost 20 years ago now.

I'm having an issue with oxygen though. I can only stay underwater for 30 mins or so before I get a low oxygen message.

I've installed the mod in its own folder and run it from there as per wolfpack345's video. I've also ran the hsie patcher. The only other mod I'm running is the GWX special effects mod.

Any ideas what I've done wrong?

In your hsie patcher, open and go to bottom set O2 in boat to 2.0, and set O2 compressed to 2.5. That should fix your problem.

Ok cheers will give that a go. Where can I find the pdf to see what the other options do as periscope, torpedo and night vision fixes are unticked by default.

Default CTD when loading a save

Anyone else having some CTD for KC GWX? Tried loading save before I died (went to the washroom and crashed into an island oops), but the career keeps crashing to desktop. Have got the steibler patch applied, tried the basic4gb patch then applied steibler., admin privileges and compatibility to windows 8, applied it to the base game in my steam folder too. Tried through the exe and sh3 commander, tried increasing the virtual ram

Really don’t want to lose this career.

system specs are:


Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.60 GHz

Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.9 GB usable)

System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Windows 10 pro

Dell XPS15 9550

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M

I don't even get that far. In career mode, I sometimes get to the start of the game, and sometimes not. Sometimes it immediately CTDs after the loading screen goes away. Other times, I can get to the nav map screen and plot a course. If I attempt to go to the bridge or look at the external view, it freezes and CTDs.

After crashing, the Event Viewer reports an error with the graphics driver, listed below. Sometimes it also reports an error with kernel.dll prior to the graphics driver error.

I have no experience of Intel ARC, only the CPU graphics chip. If the prob is with Arc I'm afraid I can't help.


Sorry.

Have you tried reinstalling Directx Jun2010 Redistributable.?


I have no experience with Intel ARC, only Intel I toyed with was the chip on the CPU. If it is an ARC driver thing I'm sorry not much I can say.

You may also know that all historical military operations detailed in the history portion of the old manual remain fully valid.... though the vessels and aircraft involved have most likely been upgraded to newer models. Therefore there is value to be had in retaining the old manual with your personal assets.

Also, we can make a sad assumption that there are far fewer new people getting involved in SH3 than there were back in its heyday.... so many elements of GWX-KC will be intuitive to regular or returning SH3 players.

Also, at the risk of sounding rude, and without that intention, Pisces.... It is really a matter now of 'when we feel like getting around to it.'

We've really been punishing to ourselves over the last two years to produce GWX - KC. The engines still run, they are at ahead slow, but we are going to run them a lot cooler to preserve them.
Makes sense, it's a big project to do. And documentation always comes last.

And I know what you mean about 'getting around to it.' Still need to finish my GWX 3 Patrol since 2011-ish.

Hello Everyone.

Longtime lurker and uboat enthusiast. Decided to give it a go. Seems like i am SO behind on the modding community but GWX is the catch all.

One question, i keep hearing about this onealex mod for GWX. Is that now outdated/or does the new GWX KC edition capture that?

Is there a real navigation mod like for Sh5?

Looking forward to firing this up!!

Would you recommend Sh3 Commander for GWX?

Is there a keymapping picture for GWX?

No, but I'll give it a shot
