run the .exe file in the Holland folder. It will ask you to point it towards the SH3/Data/Terrain folder. The file you need to find is listed in the readme file. When you get to the folder hit ok and it will install everything.

oh thanks for your quick reply

However, it seems that I always crash to desktop whenever I load the game

System: Windows Vista with hardware strong enough to play vanilla SH3 (I tried a single mission and it loads fine, and everythings works well)
Yet, when I tried loading the modded SH3, it crashes to desktop when the loading bar is about 9/10 full (it is from the campaign interface, ie the one which you get a briefing about the mission to the mission itself). Any idea? Thanks

p.s. this is the way how I install the files. Maybe I got something wrong which screwed up the important files and triggered the crash

(1) Use the repack program to install the Holland files
(2) Use JSGME program to install the mod followed by North Sea addon
p.s.s. I've disabled UAC (user account control) before any installation
Thank you in advance!

"Req"

Some times ago I discussed the possibility of having another S-boot model, like the S-14/S-25 class.


Mike at the moment is very busy, also on the SH4 side , with the panzerschiff mod...so I was thinking if someone other might be able to realize that.
Note: Mikhail explained me that the upgrade option cannot work, so it have to be installed as substitute boat-via JSME
What do you think?:hmm:

Default Fascintating

I´m totally thrilled about your s-boot mod, fascinating what´s possible with sh iii.

Maybe somebody can add one of these points.....(or complete)

a) I guess fuel consumption is too high @ low speeds and too low at speed above 15 knots.
b) boat acceleration is too good, the boat speeds up to 35 knots in no time, s-100 class is about 100tons, so that´s a point.
c) Due to the fact that only one or two engines (not sure, guess only one) were in use at cruising speeds it would be perfect turning only one prop @ low speeds and the three are only in use @ speeds over 25-42 knots.....

Unfortunately I not a professional in shiii modding but maybe an expert here in the forum or the author of this perfect mod itself?

Would be great.... //Chris

Hey all, I've been following this forum for a while now lurking around. So I downloaded this mod and had a boatload *hooray for puns* of fun with it, but I can't complete patrols, Same with GWX outside of the normal patrol routes, like the Indian Ocean. I'm told to patrol the Kanal and I tried all the Kanals around England; The channel, the Irish sea, even the Bristolkanal area and it never says I even reached the area, any ideas on how to fix this, or I could just be a little thick and I've not actually found the proper Kanal.

Welcome aboard BillyJoBob

What month, year and Flotilla are you starting in?

If it is August 39 you should be sent out on a shakedown cruise if in 1st or 2nd but 7th/13th (IIRC) you should be tasked with sinking a few target ships out of Konigsberg.

If the war has commenced you should be assigned a particular patrol grid.

However, please be advised that GWX has taken the renown away that was assigned for reaching and remaining in your patrol area for 24 hours. The renown for returning to base has never ever worked.

SINK EM ALL!!

Due to the limitations of the sh3 game engine you could not complete your patrols playing s-boot mod...the patrol objective are always the same for each flottilla: ex. "patrol grid NORDSEE" but you simply cannot complete your patrol objectives getting renown for it. However, you still can get renown by sinking ships

Does anybody have this mod stashed somewhere?
I've been looking forward to Mikhayl posting an updated version for a while but so far he has not. I'd love to give this a try.

THX.
