Hi mates,

please make sure your original SilentHunter3 installation folder is named Silent Hunter 3, SilentHunter3 or SilentHunterIII.
Otherwise the installer will not be able to verify your original installation.

The page before you get to the selection of the original installation folder gives this Information very clearly.
Please read the text in the installer carefully BEFORE you click the mouse button!

after a first round it seems that the sight of the attack periscope and a problem when you click on it in the turm, this is what it gives



on the other hand I did not find the gauge complement but maybe I am missing something? ...

SHO Re: Question...

Ahoy... & happy (as possible, considering the ongoing situation...) holidays...

Ok, got LSH3-2020 downloaded & ready to go...

Started it, after setting up sh3 (which is paid for, by the way. I have access to it, from Steam (divorced from Steam, using SFSF properly) & copy of it from Ubi...), I go to run the installer.. & get some message from the installer, saying some such of 'can't find valid copy from Ubi'... What the..???

In setting up LSH3-2015 or V15, if you will... I had no issues with setting it up, using the copy from Steam (see above, thanks) & was fully successful in doing so.

Am, in the process of using the Ubi copy I have & trying this again... just want to say, am not amused of being hog tied to Ubi itself, as I do NOT agree with their policy if you want to run either SH3, SH4 or SH5 (if you are so inclined to run with SH5...) of having to use their bloody game launcher Ubisoft Connect (formerly tagged as Uplay).

Having to use any launcher to play a game you put out hard earned good $$$ for... is ludicrous as all get out.

your problem comes from the fact that your folder must be named "SilentHunterIII" or 'SilentHunter3' during the installation c is said you must follow what is simply said

With v15 set up, didn't have to. I named the main folder that SH3 was set up for that, as 'LSH3-2015'... which I figured LSH3-v20 would be sufficient... *sighs*

SHO Re: LSH3-v20 install...



Ok, finally figured out a work around... set up in My C:\Games\SH3 folder a folder named 'LSH3-v20' then inside that, I set up SH3 in a folder named 'SilentHunter3'....

&... the installer, recognized it & said it could continue...

so.... onward & upwards...

Have to say, I too, after getting though installing... ran into this, as well...

1st time, clicking on the scope, in the turm, no issue... it was the 2nd time of doing so... I ran into what is shown in the snap shot provided by Kal Maximus...

I'm having resolution issues, the game is too wide for my screen, what is the default resolution that it runs on? It's cutting off the edges of the screen where the buttons would be to launch a career or training mission. Can I change the resolution to work like LSH2015 did? I know there was a big widescreen push, is that what I need to change so that my monitor and game are in sync?

I'm still having the "CAN NOT INITIALIZE 3D ENGINE" message when attempting to start LSH 2020, despite doing every step in in the manual to force the game to load in 1360x768 screen.

Set your d3d.ini to 1366x768 and try it. Your monitor/card may not support 1360.
