And do you have La Rochelle & Bordeaux harbor/flotillas?

Most likely GWX harbor. List of available fleets in screenshot #1

Now you have the opportunity to make a more complete report.

I deleted the Speech_En folder, but the download time has not changed From which I conclude that it is not involved in the download.

I will fix the three types of shells issue for next version, it was there from the base mod I used. I will also check the free camera on deck too.


The size and shape of the periscopes and uzo is the same because I wanted to maintain consistency on the perceived size of objects when using them. Also, I wanted to use a realistic monocular shape. I probably won't change that.


@Anvar1061


I don't think those graticles and deck gun graphics are the ones in my mod, perhaps something is overwriting them. The deck gun should look like the one ericlea posted.


Thanks for the feedback!

Not sure what you mean.

It is running, started a new 7th Flotilla career via SH3 Commander, November 1942 to see how the Wolf Pack functioning goes.

Figured out how to get the crew off of the casing: first use the "Crew on Deck" command in the Watch Officer Menu and only after doing that try CTRL+D, otherwise the troops on the casing just flicker a few times.

The interface will take some getting used to but I saw nothing to object to.

Tried to refit the boat with the two-platform Turm to double the AAA available but the sim crashed to desktop after the "not so long ago..." screen. This career became unloadable so had to delete and start over.

Second career attempt using the same parameters; did not change the Turm and it loaded fine. Some traffic but the enclosed St Nazaire port shown on the map screen does not appear and was able to sail straight out of the bunker and through the harbour graphics on the map. There did not seem to be any reason for the 8-16 FPS in the immediate vicinity of the port but frame rates soon improved to 30+ when on the bridge.

Once into the Bay of Biscay tried to move an officer without the Watchkeeping ability to the bridge using the Crew Screen and the sim crashed to desktop. No idea if the lack of ability was the cause or something else entirely. However, with loading times typically in excess of 15-minutes (3-5 to load the menu and 12+ to load the sim), I am not too inclined to do much troubleshooting. Had neglected to save up to that point so the career is scuppered.

Is what I have seen so far impressive with regards to visual appeal? I would say so but I am not yet certain that I am on board with some of the included features and to be honest, the long loading times are a bit of a killer.

For what it's worth I have no less than seven SH3 super-mod installations in no particular order:

Onealex GWX
GWX Reloaded
GWX3
CCoM-12
LHS-15
WAC-5
NYGM-7A

Each has its charms and issues but one thing that they all have in common is the tremendous dedication and talent demonstrated by the respective development teams. As a content consumer rather than a content creator it is important for us to recognize the debt that we users owe all Modders.

Does this count as a more complete report?

Of course it's important. I analyze all situations, even contradictory ones. I listen to your suggestions and recommendations. Thank you all! I'm not alone now.

Type 9B works ! flotilla 2 Lorient 1941 !

But with type 9B almost no electric or surface motor is heard (very very weak)
edit : another try with same boat and motor sounds are ok this time :-)



asdic sound is top !!



message "ship spotted" is ok but sometime is another message instead "smoke at horizon" .... nice !!








for diego gui :


at map f5: the line of the rule, the compass and the protractor is shifted. it is not centered.

It is centered once you turn on the Tool Helper function but without that the offset is really difficult to work with.
