Default reinstall lsh3

My hard drive broke so I lost my lsh3. Have been trying to reinstall it following the instructions to the letter. Every time I get to the "Start the game using the new desktop link" it tells me there is no "sh3.exe". I have looked at the file and it is right. every time the "sh3.exe" is missing. What is going on here? I have used lsh3 for years and hate to give up on it. Any ideas?

Hi k
Do not use the shortcuts as these are promlematic.
The game should always be started from SH3Commander.
You can locate this application from the main game folder.
Right click on the application SH3Cmdr and you have 2 options.
1. Pin to the Taskbar (recommended)
Creates a SH3Commander icon.

2. Send to > Desktop create shortcut.

Hi k
Make sure your SH3.exe and Commander application are set as administrators.
This will stop the game crashing to the desktop before you reach the main menu.

Default reinstall

Have tried to get this reinstalled at least 7 times now (cleaning and re downloading each time). Will give that a try again before giving up. As you can see by how hard I have been trying, I really like this game so here's hoping.

Default LSH3 mods

Can anyone tell me which mods have full screen maps and if more than one, which one can you recommend?

Default LSH III Edition 2015 problem

Hi Guys

Hope I can still get an answer to this question bearing in mind the age of these posts, however I have a problem when trying to extract the files into my mods folder, I keep being asked for a password.
I cant find any mention of this anywhere so is there a simple answer?

I have been away from the game for some time and installed a new install on which I want to load this mod. The game is patched to 1.4.
Thanks for any help.

Just started playing SH3 again. Loving your mod! Great job!

Quick question, do I always have to start with the training flotilla or can I start right up with a regular one? Using SH3 Commander, it only lets me pick my sub if I choose the training flotilla. If I pick another flotilla, the sub selections is blank.

Thanks!

Yes, you have always to perform the training flotilla before asking for transfert to regular one. Even with SH3 commander.
As well as for changing sub, you must train at least once before using it in regular flotilla.

More a technical question, if someone could provide an answer:

With the exact same video settings, i have a perfect image with ARB widegui, while The 2 widegui provided by LSH3 give me a slightly blurry image ingame...

I’m running 1920X1080, and I’ve set everything as recommended by THEBERBSTER.

What could make such difference just with the widegui?
Is there any video settings inside them?
(I can live with nice ARB, no problem, but some LSH3 interface features are missing)

ÉDIT: tried old drivers recommended by Urmel, changed the main Cfg video reso accordingly to no avail...still blurry.
Only Anherbe and ARB gui gives clean and neat image.

Default LSH3 Edition 2020

Is there a new forum for 2020? I haven't seem a single post about it on here.

My pleasure Urmel. A big thank you to you and the tean for this updated version, it took a long time to get here but well worth it. I think the simplified installation process will make a big difference.

Hi all. Still enjoying this mod. It seems the FAQ is gone however. Looking for the procedure to get a new boat. Been in the Type II for quite some time and would like to get a Type VII eventually.

Thanks for any info! (posting here as i am playing 2015 version not 2020)
