Mods are not working!
 

Hello,
i have Silent hunter 3 with GWX 3.0, running win 7 with resolution fix and i cant get the other "added" mods to work, i enable them through JSGME, but nothing is happening, please help!!

Thanks

What "added" Mods?
The standard that come with GWX should work fine but you don't want some enabled at sometimes.

could you please give more details. like mods you are trying to activate and in what order.

JSGME v2.6.0.157???

Probably path to SH3 data folder is double foldered by MOD name..

Should be like mod_name\data\etc

I bet in your case might be mod_name\mod_name\data\etc

thus mod is not activated.

Double check that..

Can we please have your mod list as it may help us to identify any problems.

We want to help but-
 

please tell us what mods ur trying to use so we can:)

Im using JSGME that came with GWX 3.0 (so its 2.2.0.120) Ive anabled:
GWX - Enhanced damege effects
GWX - 16km Atmosphere
And iv also downloaded SteelVikings interior Mod V1.2
I dont really get that thing about double foldered mods...Could you please explain?

Thank for reply!

SteelViking's mod is for SH5 only.

Oh...right...well Open Hatch isnt working either.

try this
 

Uninstall your game ,just in case steel vikings has courpted any files,reeinstall +GWX

this will/should give you a copy of jsgme on your desktop,just ,as a test activate GWX -main movie das boot

run the game ,if you see clips from das boot its working,try that first

good luck matey:up:

my mods not appearing in the game too
 

Hi, I'm playing 'vanilla' SHIII and have added a few mods using jsgme. It is saying they are 'active' but are not appearing in the game.


I'm running, or trying too,
Manosenvironment pro v5
Real environment revision 3
Thomsensoundpac v3.2
TKSS18 german uboats comp 1 & 2


any help would be great, oh yeah, I'm using this via steam.

Where did you install the game, and do you have other Steam games in the same folder? Steam defaults to a "C:\Program Files (x86) \Steam \SteamApps \common \Silent Hunter 3" folder, which is a Windows "system" protected folder, so any changes made there without proper pre-approval from the OS will be rolled back for all cfg and other files. Most of the graphic files are unaffected. You can then end up with a nasty "mod soup" of SH3 that does not function at all. See How To Move A Steam Game... for a couple of methods of doing such. If you have a valid 2nd hard drive partition that you can put another Steam Library folder in, that is the easiest and fastest way. "Fast" in this case is a relative term though. The 2nd thing about SH3 (and SH4) is that the game runs off of the Save folder, and if you do not clear that after a mod change, you will again have a mix of mods that usually does not function correctly. This is usually the "C:\Users \UserName \Documents \SH3" folder. Delete its contents and run the game again. It will re-create the folder, but with the new data of the mod. You will lose all previous Saves and the user settings you've applied to the game's interface. :salute:
