This mod will work with all installations of SHIII. However all mods that have altered:

- cameras.dat
- typeVII interior *.dat / *.sim / *.cam files

Have fun,

Hello DD

First, thank you very mush for EVERYTHING.

I would like to mention what I found inside en_menu.txt from your mod, compared to one from WAC:

YOUR MOD:

750=Kiel...................................902=1st Flotilla
751=Brest.................................903=2nd Flotilla
752=Wilhelmshaven...................904=7th/13th Flotilla
753=Lorient...............................905=10th Flotilla
754=St. Nazaire.........................906=11th Flotilla
755=Bergen...............................907=23rd/29th Flotilla
756=Bordeaux......................... 908=12th Flotilla
757=La Spezia...........................909=30th/33rd Flotilla
758=Toulon
759=Flensburg
760=Constanza
761=Penang
762=Jakarta
763=Salamis
764=Trondheim
765=Königsberg

WAC 4.1:

750=Kiel.....................................902=1 st Flotilla
751=Brest...................................903=2n d Flotilla
752=Wilhelmshaven.....................904=7th Flotilla
753=Lorient.................................905=10 th Flotilla
754=St.Nazaire........................... 906=11th Flotilla
755=Bergen.................................907=29t h Flotilla
756=Memel................................ 908=24th Flotilla
757=La Spezia............................ 909=3rd Flotilla
758=Toulon
759=La Rochelle

Entries 276 and 277 are different too, maybe other entries too.

I didn't check NYGM supermod.

So, maybe NOT ready for all SH3 installations?

thanks for your input, lads!


@Rhodes:
As it´s almost eyecandy only, I don´t reckon it would cause any problems to enable the mod during a mission.

@U-48Kriegsmarine:
IIRC, loosing CE commands is bound to the alteration of 'cameras.dat'.
If there are enough calls, I will provide a fix for download that will revert to fixed cameras/views that are not bound to the diving angle. If my assumption is correct, then this will bring you back the CE commands.

@NGT:
Thank you for pointing out the ..._menu.txt issue. I indeed didn´t think about those as I only added 3 lines. I will update the respective post and rework the installation instructions accordingly.

I´ve used ..._menu.txt files that were provided with GWX2.1. But it´s pretty easy to add the needed lines yourself.

1856=Lock/Unlock Hatch
1857=Open/Close Hatch
1858=Free Cam (non stabilized)

These lines add tooltips to the game. When moving the mouse over the newly added light above the hatchway, tooltip 1856 will be displayed. The lever left/right of the hatchway will trigger tooltip 1857. And finally the new dummy floor (invisible) will trigger tooltip 1858.

OK DD, thank you very much.

Now everybody knows about.

Hi DD,

A fix to restore the CE commands would be great! I have the same issue (losing the CE voice) but also noticed it took away the "ring-ring" that I had when you change speed, etc.

Otherwise, your mod looks and works great!

Thanks very much,

Dale

Hey DD,

I see you still use mediafire and FF for your mods.
If you want, you can have them hosted in SHMF too, if you want.
You may write the release text in both German and English too, if you want.

regards

Thanks DD, it's looking great.
I too can confirm losing the CE voice and RING-RING.
It would be great if you could release the fix, just as an option, to see how the game would be more immersive.

Marvellous job DD.

Excellent work, DD! Thanks again.

I will check out the CE commands issue and report back.

@Carotio:
Feel free to host the mod on SHMF. I´m confident you will find the right words for the 'release text'.

There you go, DD production in SHMF:

Thanks DD, it looks great! I'll DL just as soon as my new pooter is up and running.

Such an amazing mod. No doubt this will bring 50 tons+++ of immersion.

Losing CE is extremely unfortunate though, would indeed be lovely to see this fixed. Maybe he is too busy working his way through all that newly appeared bratwurst to report insignificant details like my speed and heading?

Atleast I don't just lose the CE sounds but all the related written info aswell.
Stuff like...
17:26 Ahead Standard
17:28 New course 345
18.0 CRASH Dive!!!
.... and so forth aren't appearing in the info box at all.
Initially I tought it could be a conglict between OH and Das Boot Sound Mod, but noticed things remain identically silent with Thomsen's Sound Pack aswell.
