Just got SH3 goin again after about a year of absence, and several computer rebuilds .... GWX 3 of course ...
ummm I'm sure this has been addressed SOMEWHERE in here, but I ain't wading thru almost 400 pages to find the answer, sorry I thought that with GWX I was supposed to start a career with the full 1500 reknown (from completing the training missions) without actually doing the training missions ... I'm clearly wrong, as I started with only 500 reknown .... is that correct? ... also, i may have to drop back to non-manual targeting for awhile until I get used to this sim again ... using MaGUI as well, 'cause it's cool and awesome ... but DAMN is it hard to do!! LOLz

You do have to complete at least one of the training missions to get the 1500 Renown. Navigation will suffice.

You apply SH5 water after MEP 3...SH5 water isn´t compatible with MEP: the environment of SH5 overwrites the MEP. I think you see only SH5 water. If this mod is the 20 Km version, MEP sensors works OK. But if you use SH5 water 16k or 8k, the sensors.dat don´t work properly. Can you combine the MEP and SH5 water with goods results? I think this combination is wrong... Best regards. Fitzcarraldo

I have the 20 km version. I enabled it after this post:

Now, I´m watching the new environment mod by Hans Witteman, I hope will be the best. Hans is finishing the mod, and - after his commentary - it will be awesome. Best regards. Fitzcarraldo

For my new game intallation I've cobbled together a combination of v0.9 (20km) SH5 Water and MEPv3 along with some other files that I was always using either way.
It uses the scene.dat and all the EnvColors and SkyColors .dat files from SH5 Water, along with its Nori00, Nori01 and Senin .tga files. From MEPv3, it uses the 12 SeaFoam .tga files plus the entire contents of the sensor pack for GWX3. That seemed to be the best combination of what you'd get if you enabled MEPv3 + patch + GWX sensors pack, then enabled SH5 Water on top of it, but without adding the MEP flat sun fix (as discussed in comet61's thread on that experiment). I'm pretty sure rik007 intended v0.9 to take care of the flat sun issue at least for ATI users, so there's no need for MEP's Flat Sun Fix. And I threw in the 12 1024x1024 foam .tga files from the Foam mod and the Peak.tga from Sober's 3D waves. I have not spent much time in the game with this setup enabled, as I've just been starting test careers to get the game loaded and try out different mod combinations - but so far it looks fine. I'll have to see how the sensor settings work on the AI side once I get out on a real patrol. |

I was using the same version of SH5 Water before reinstalling, and to me it looks exactly the same now given that I've only been putzing around in harbors for 10 minutes or so at a time to make sure everything loads properly and doesn't kill my FPS.
Which it should, since I'm not overwriting any of its files with anything else. Basically I'm just using SH5 Water in its totality along with the sensor pack from MEPv3 (since I'm assuming it was put together specifically for a 20 km environment) plus some .tga files from there and some other sources that I was already using with SH5 by itself anyway. So I expected no real change in the scenery, the big question for me will be how using the sensor pack from MEP affects things. |

The Res Fix maps the screenshot function to the PrintScreen key, and I never had problems using it with my old setup. On some of those shots above, though, the game froze up on me. The first few times I was able to 'alt+tab' it to the taskbar and then pull it back up and it had unfrozen and gone back to normal but after the last attempt it finally froze completely and I had to pull up Task Manager to shut it down. It may have unfrozen on its own eventually but I was only making a test run and didn't want to wait around to find out.
I hate to think that I can't do screenshots any more, but it looks like whatever causes the CTD issue with the Res Fix is now an issue for me as well. I don't know any way around it because I've never had to find one before. Environment mods are all a matter of taste and what your system can handle. If yours can run a 20km atmo you may find MEPv3 (the full mod, not the bits I pulled out of it) suits you better. TBH I didn't know how much I liked SH5 water until I was in the game without it, now it feels like something's missing if it's not there. And to be fair, cruising through the harbor on a relatively calm day doesn't really do it justice. The storms at sea are pretty awesome IIRC. |
