Have you tried turning down the hardware acceleration for your soundcard? This common solution seems to fix a lot of these similar problems.

Hi all,
just a question about GW :
is the hydrophone model updated from vanilla SH3 ?
In this case what is the mean maximum range of German hydrophones in 1939 ?
(are layer effects taken into account ?)
Any details appreciated.
thanks.

Hello boys, following the instructions in readme file, I installed GW in a clean SHIII, with 1.4b patch and when the install is near to finnish, one msg of error appears, the installer dont't find some TGA files because they are corrupeted or incomplete

. I dowloaded from subsim page, all the five folders, and I dont't have save any savegame file. I try uninstall the game, reinstall it and the same msg apperas again

.

Sounds like one of your d/l files was incomplete. The full file size of each file should be:

TGW11a.exe: 547,845
TGW11a-1.bin: 178,751,648
TGW11a-2.bin: 179,300,000
TGW11a-3.bin: 179,300,000
TGW11a-4.bin: 179,154,367

If any of your file sizes differ by even one byte, they're corrupt and will need to be redownloaded.

Checking your file sizes is the obvious and quick way to confirm a corrupted file, but it's not 100% foolproof. That is, a file may be the right size but still be corrupt.

From what you are saying, it would seem that TGW11a-3.bin and/or TGW11a-4.bin are corrupt. Check the file sizes first, and if that gives it away, redownload the corrupt piece. Otherwise, redownload TGW11a-3.bin first and try that, followed by TGW11a-4.bin if you still have the same problems.

as it is good for asking to that it knows the reply

Tha fourth file is only 23mb...:rotfl:
Thanks

I just installed GW mod and I have to say...
THANK YOU

for making SH3 what it should have been. I am having a great time on patrol listening to all the radio traffic etc.

So far I have sunk 2 ships and even that was a treat, both of them taking a long time to sink.,burning the whole time. It was like watching a movie.

Harbour traffic, increased visability, it just gets better and better.

Danke

All my downloaded files sizes are all different. What is going on here? I got:

TGW11a.exe: 536 Kb vs 547,845
TW11a-1.bin: 174,563 vs 178,751,648
TGW11a-2.bin: 175,098 vs 179,300,000
TGW11a-3.bin: 175,098 vs 179,300,000
TGW11a-4.bin: 174,956 vs 179,154,367

You're looking at the kilobyte size.

Right click a file in Windows Explorer, select Properties, then look at the size in bytes.

SkvyWvr · 06-30-06, 09:37 AM

I am unable to download from either of the links on your site. Subsim tells me the mod is unavailable while the ftp won't all me to access any of the files.

JScones · 06-30-06, 09:42 AM

Subsim should be back on-line 1 July. The mirror still works fine for me.

But tell me, is your browser IE or Firefox?

I'm using IE 7 beta.

JScones · 06-30-06, 09:54 AM

Shouldn't be a problem with IE7, unless there's some security setting that I am not aware of.

When you click the MIRROR link you should see a screen like this:

FTP directory /Silent%20Hunter%20III/Grey%20Wolves/ at gibbage.mine.nu

Up to higher level directory

06/23/2006 05:34PM 271 Readme.txt
06/16/2006 12:03AM 178,751,648 TGW11a-1.bin
06/16/2006 12:02AM 179,300,000 TGW11a-2.bin
06/16/2006 12:13AM 179,300,000 TGW11a-3.bin
06/16/2006 12:15AM 179,154,367 TGW11a-4.bin
06/16/2006 12:06AM 547,845 TGW11a.exe

On that screen right click each file and select "Save Target As...".

If you don't get a screen like the above, then I'd suggest that you have an IE security setting which is blocking the use of ftp.

bigboywooly · 06-30-06, 09:56 AM

You may have a yellow box that appears under address bar at top which ,if you click on it ,you can allow download

SkvyWvr · 06-30-06, 10:04 AM

Thanks for the response sailors. Oh and SH3 Commander is a great product.

hardcampa · 06-30-06, 12:29 PM

About the Europe Mirror (my server).
I DID reboot the server the other day. As an upgrade caused some problems.
(both CPU's got 100% utilization due to a crappy library)
As long as the picture below shows users on the ftp. It's up anyway.
If you can't see the picture. Well then it must be down.
I still haven't had 10 minutes without downloads (even 1 minute).
If there's a gap in that graph chances are, the server had some downtime.
Note: the time is Swedish time (+1 GMT). So adjust it to your timezone.

This picture will update every 5 minutes:

Hope it helps tracking down any problems. If the ftp was down while you were trying to download, it's my bad.
