The link provided only gives a screen shot of the hydrophone in game with the game paused. I see no way to have your sound played.

Could you also give the mods you are using, it may help.

Good hunting,

Hover your cusor over the picture and the sound controls etc. should be viewable.

Thanks for the heads up. It is almost a "doah" moment.

Your weird sound is dolphins. They are in some of the major mega mods like GWX and WAC.

Good hunting,

I was advised to install SH3 GWX 3.0 (since the SH5 TWoS doesn't work with SH5 from Ubisoft), but the links seemed to take me to something called "Living Silent Hunter 2015".

Now I am confused as to what the best route to take with SH3 because after successfully downloading LSH3 supermod, the LSH3-EDITION-2015-STARTER.EXE gives me an error saying that it can't find a valid sh3.exe when installing it -- even though the file is indeed in the correct folder.

What game/supermod combination can be installed and that actually works? I spent hours at this and getting nowhere. I am really looking to exploring sub sims again after many years away from them. Please help.

Several years ago I downloaded a map overlay that you could pull down on the navmap, and you could gain the full KM reference from it. Does anyone know if that's still around somewhere, and if it's compatible with wide-screen please?

I have a problem here, unfortunately. I'm not keen on ARB and the other version is for stock GWX. I'm currently running GWX3.0 and Conus' widescreen mod. So I'm presuming it won't be compatible? If anybody knows a solution it'd be great.

Question 2

-

Is there a crew file I could extract and save from SH3 or Commander that I could then paste somewhere for a future save, keeping the same crew?

Gavin.

Howdy. Bit of a newby SH3 player still, been playing off-and-on for about a year now with GWX. I've got manual targeting down and procedures down pretty well and I can reliably sink a ship at this point, but my biggest hurdle I haven't been able to pass is correctly identifying ship nationality. It's all too common for me to spot a ship, be unable to identify it 100% due to the honestly pretty low-resolution flags, and the fact that the flags are quite small. Also, many commonwealth flags seem to appear exactly the same unless you're directly ontop of it, due to them having very minor differences. I mostly just end up having to let the ship pass by due to not knowing.

Are there any tips to this? Maybe even a mod to help out per-chance? I use GWX with MFM. Thanks guys.
