SH3 Commander (current v2.7) - Page 12

JScones · 03-01-07, 07:38 PM

I don't like GWX's "Not that long ago..." text. My game says "Here we go again...".

For me this fits both times the text is displayed perfectly - when loading a new patrol in a career for the obvious reason, and when loading the Museum because it usually means that I am testing some new change I've made. That bloody Museum gets loaded about 10 times a day during development.

It'd be interesting if that intro text could be randomized with quotes and what not from real sub vets, etc.

Yes, of course. SH3Cmdr can randomise *any* SH3 setting.

Search this forum to find out how to achieve *exactly* what you are asking.

Of course the original said "Initializing..."

For a while someone was posting as his sig a sceenshot of his: "Fixin' To Get Ready To Start..."

Where is that portion of Text Located? I can't seem to find it in Menu.txt

Steppenwolf · 03-05-07, 07:20 PM

Line "961=" in en_menu.txt

Thanks.

So, Basically one would need to make several versions of the Menu.txt each with the different quotes and what not and place them into the Random folder under sh3commander?

The other problem being that the size of the font on the loading screen is huge. doubt there is a way to change that. so, they would likely need to be short ones unless the font could be changed.

No, nothing that elaborate. You only have to add a new section to the \Sh3 Commander\cfg\Randomized events.cfg file.

See this thread for an example of someone who wanted to have a number of different versions of the "Keep up the good work" radio message, the damage message and the crush depth message etc.:

Also read the directions at the top of the Randomized events.cfg file itself.

Font on most screens is controlled by \SilentHunterIII\data\Menu\menu_1024_768.ini, but I have no idea which block in there controls that particular screen.

Guys,

If one of the malfunctions can be a fuel leak, how do I know if I have one? Is there a slick behind my sub?

Because of the variation of my navigation officers estimates of "max range at this speed" it is very hard to tell if I am leaking.

A few weeks ago I really screwed up and tried to install a mod and forgot to click on "Rollback SH3", well what happened was not so good.

I've since reinstalled SH III and first installed JSGME for a week of playing and testing. Everything played well, then three days ago I reinstalled "SH3 Commander". No problems yet running the Sim but there are a few mods I'd like to reinstall while I'm at port BUT "SH3 Commander" has the "Rollback SH3" greyed out ! Just to see whats happening I've tried 3 runs ( patrols ) so far and I would quit the Sim each time while in port and still Rollback SH3 is greyed out. why ??

I would like to reinstall GWX but so far SH3 Commander thinks otherwise.

Oops! I meant #13: the scrolling text before the loading screen that says, "All you need is a few good men" or "Loaded via SH3 Commander. Good hunting!" if you're using SH3cmdr.

Uh you reinstalled SH3 and SH3 Commander right? Are sure you even used SH3 Commander to load a game yet? I assume when you uninstalled SH3 you erased any changes made?

fredbass · 03-11-07, 07:31 AM

Exactly. you have to actually load SH3 with Commander to get the rollback option when you quit the game.

Thanks for you SH3 Commander. It's really good program.
