Is the community manual ever going to be re-uploaded?

Jimbuna · 09-15-11, 12:34 PM

Well I wouldn't mind seeing it but it doesn't look like it any time soon.

I tried installing SH3 but got an error message because of a protection program. Will SH3 run in Vista 32 operating system.

It should, for info specifically relating to Vista see here:

If you have copy of the game that includes Starforce (which I'm assuming is the DRM/protection program that is causing the problem) see here for more info on that:

Sorry I can't be more helpful but I have no personal experience with either issue. Others here do though so check out those threads and hang in there.

OUt of idle interest anyone have the community manual? I know it is years ago but my old machine could not run SH3 smoothly enough so was stuck on SH2 (not complaining). I like the mild rpg element here and the few fancy tweaks of SH3. Seems to be an improvement SH5 looks atrocious, based on reviews, how dare a crew member not perform an order!

I've got it - or maybe only parts of it - saved as a series of 19 MSWord (.doc) files. The largest file is 296 KB; five are over 100 KB each and the rest are less than 50 KB each

PM me with your email address and I'll try forwarding them to you.

Welcome aboard Jack! SH3 runs fine on Vista although it sounds like you may have a 'starforce' issue. Check out the links FK posted and good luck getting it sorted!

Until someone posts another here

I am glad that it is not lost yet. Hopefully it will stay up for awhile. I am reading it right now and enjoying it very much.

I really enjoy the Silent Hunter games and subsim forums. Just glad I could help the community out

What I could do in my retirement is copy the Wiki to Word and have it ready in a zip. Check general discussions for the retirement.

SINK EM ALL!!

Is there any reason subsim.com can't host the SH3 community manual itself?

I just started SH3 and haven't played ever played a realistic subsim. I've been mildly discouraged by all the dead links. It's a little weird that nobody is archiving this stuff in the downloads section. I'd rather spend my time hunting for merchant ships than PDF's.
