So, do I understand from this thread that there is no way to patch the SH3 download from Ubisoft with H.SIE's hard coded fixes? Is there no way to make it compatible?

If you have done exactly what was written in the documentation to the patcher then there is only one correct answer to both questions - no way. Wow, that was easy.

The h.sie patcher knows exactly five versions of different sh3.exe's which was released in the past at the time when the patcher was created. The "Sorry, no compatible version of sh3.exe found" and "Patching not possible! Exit" can really not be misinterpreted. There is no way around. _With The Original H.Sie Patcher_

It may be possible to ask the Creators of the new version of the sh3.exe why they have changed the exe. Maybe to some sort of copy-protection or DRM, or only to make its users angry, i dont know for shure.


But, if you reconfigure your view to the 'problem' you may get what you want since there is more than one solution.
The easyest one is use a different SH3 release (or a different sh3.exe including some other files). If possibly one that is compatible with the patcher.

To create a New version of the patcher to make it compatible Is possible, since h.sie has released the Source-code to the public.

Thanks. I expected that was the answer but it never hurts to ask.

In fact I've started using LSH3 2020 which comes with the SH3.EXE already patched in the mod. Running it with Ahnenerbe Wide GUI and Fifi Enhancements. All good.

Fook Ubisoft!

Hi everyone, my first post and I already have a problem to share with you!
Recently discovered SH3 through Wolfpack345's videos and got exited to try it out myself, bought a copy from Steam.
I read a bit of this thread and suspect I might have a copy-protected version of the game's .exe. However I've already installed Grey wolves expansion, can anyone confirm the steam version of the game is doomed because of copy-protection or does a clean .exe from steam work with the patcher and Grey wolves should be installed after?

If it's doomed, could someone be kind enough to send me a clean copy over mail? (If you'd like me to pay for the costs just send me the needed bank information and I'll transfer the money when the copy arrives).

Cheers!

Hi Headshotkill ive sent you a PM with a download link to my Mediafire site
the SH3 download is from this original install its already patched to 1.4
Run SH3 fire up happytime single mission then it makes a SH3 Folder in your documents for all your carrer saves






unpack SH3 Download with 7zip then place the SH3 Folder on drive C:/ but outside Program Files x86

if you are going to use GWX or other Super Mods you will need the 4Gig Patch download link below

https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/dow...o=file&id=5737

also Commander Mod 3.2 download link below

https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/dow...o=file&id=4789


If your going to use GWX3 dont forget the GWX Commander mod config file so GWX and the Commander Mod talk to each other

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to let you know I got my game up and running with the same loadout as Wolfpack345 from youtube.
Special thanks to Blackswan40 for helping me out with the .exe file and also thanks to Doolar for some additional tips.

Time to sink some merchants!

Default Increase number of wolfpack attacks

I'd like to increase these a bit to more closely match the historical number/chances of one.
I imagine it would require a hex editor which I'm usually able to figure out IF I know the address(es) to look at. No idea how to find them myself.
If anyone has any info. on this I'd appreciate it. Pm if desired.

Bedros,

Check this :

Keep in mind that the wolfpacks are attached to the convoys and spawn under the proper conditions.

Good hunting,
FUBAR295
