OK,

The compartment issue seems to be related to SH3 Cmdr somehow, as it doesn't happen when I load SH3 direct. It doesn't seem to matter which crew profile I choose. This didn't happen w/ 1.02 :hmm: :hmm:

Unless you can think of a reason why IuB might effect this, I'll bump it.

Thanks Again!

Hitch

JonZ,

Victory!!! The offending file is "Medals and renown.cfg" included in "SH3 Commader (sic) Files."

Any news on the emblem problem?

Thanks!

I'm still at work
just wait about 5 hours before I start investigate this. I'll put the issue on page1 on bugfixes post.

Medals and renown.cfg file was a direct cut & paste from the Hollywood Advanced Damage mod. I'll check the readme file to see if there's anything related to the TypII.

Hey Doc Jonz...I dropped that config file provided for Commander in the right place like you suggested, and it cured the fatigue problem.

Thanks!

I just did a second patrol and there were two Liberty Cargo's just sitting in the ocean at 1 knots on my way to my patrol zone in the north Antlantic. My convoy contact and engagement was all normal. This was in April '42 with a VIIC.

If I have issues with my next patrol, I'll do another clean install etc. just in case I corrupted my manual installation. Which is highly possible.

If I feel the need to do the clean install again, I'll skip the Mod Enabler and follow your manual instructions this time...we'll see.

Just trying to give you some feedback as you are the doctor.

I'll let you know this evening...

At the end of my (rather successful - 30k tons including an Auxillary Cruiser, using the Hollywood Living Crew Fatigue Option) first patrol, I was thinking that I hadn't seen any neutrals. This was a major factor early-war in 1.02. On my return to Wlihelmshaven, in very rough seas, I had a contact - Small Cargo vessel, long range - headed WNW, outbound from Norway. In the past (1.02), this vessel usually would have been Norwegian, and therefore untouchable. I plotted an intercept course, and, when I got within 2k m, I submerged, not wanting to be spotted, for a clean shot, if this vessel was fair game. I needed to make it count, because I only had 1 stern torpedo left. The seas were playing havoc on my crew, trying to maintain periscope depth. I had a very hard time making out the nationality, but finally, at about 700m, and during a lull in the waves, I could make out the flag. It was Polish! This ship was trying to make it to Britain, after the downfall of Poland. The Polish vessel was having a hard time in the rough weather, and I maneuvered for my shot, goinng for a shallow, impact pistol run. Needless to say, there is one less Polish cargo ship going to make it to Britain.

Great MOD!

I've found the emblem problem. I can fix it, but I liked the fact that you have to earn it on first completed patrol
Besides, an option to allow that should be available on the next SH3 Cmdr release.

Should I fix it?

How about this:

I tweak the Flotilla Emblem for the first patrol, then unlock the other emblems with default :hmm:

By the way I also found out that there is a problem with the cfg file of the Sh3Commander.
There was a fix for the TypII boat, but the link is not working anymore

I am trying to get in contact with GouldJG to fix this issue.


EDIT: I have maybe a temporary fix.

I've downloaded the 8hours shift version, copy pasted the [Compartment] part and pasted it over the old compartment of the Medals and renown.cfg with the notepad. It raised the efficiency of the torpedo room.

Jonz bud just installed your mod and played it for a whyle, and a

"problem" came out...


Since i thought your mods sound files where litle soft for me, i whanted to includ mi old sound files that i've joyened toghether for almost to m.

The problem came after install mi personalised sound files mod, was durig the Naval Academy 3th exame, that you've got to shot down at list 5 planes...and after a while the game CTD...tryed a cople of times and allways the same thing and this windows error message:

__________________________________________________ ___
Error report:


AppName: sh3.exe AppVer: 1.4.0.1 ModName: sound.act
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00006c13



C:\DOCUME~1\G-Zone\CONFIG~1\Temp\6249_appcompat.txt

__________________________________________________ ___

Than just to check i took of the person. sond folder and everything was ok....


The question is, can it be some incompatebility with your mod ?

Or maybe cause the sound are from diferent mods?


Thanks man the mod looks perfect bro!

It is not just one sound mod, Jonz, it's a compilation of sounds that i have been puting toghether acording mi taste and mad a big mod
Personalised for ni private use...

I'm making a new one anyhow, but the problem i think was mostly with the planes geting down, crashing...

Sorry for this almost useless info bro, but i really think it was this one sound that is in fact called Big oil explosion and that i've got it into mi compilation cause it had screems in midlle mixed with the explosion, ...

I'll quote Average Joe on this:

Quote:
FWIW, I won't mess with any sound-settings in SH3, (changing format, or attributes such as quality, bit-rate, stereo/mono, etc).

It's easy to crash the whole game, merely by changing a mono .wav file to stereo.

The only changes I would make is perhaps a sound-patch/mod that fixes default sound-files, and only if needed.

You might try a test, changing sound quality of a often used sound-file (i.e., upping kHz quality). You'll know pretty fast if it's acceptable or not.
I'm not sure of anything as I never modified sound files yet, but that can be a part of your problem.
