Trouble with wide GUI

Gilbou · 10-11-22, 07:18 AM

I am unable to get the wide GUI mods working.

I have SH3 (starforce free)
Installed the following mods using JSGME :

Rbs1_SH4_Effects_GWX_30_71
Raptor's Uniforms V2.0 Grey
Raptor's Uniforms V2.0 Grey All Leather
Rubini's Underwater dust and plancton
MEP v6
optional - ShipVanishingHull for MEP6
optional - FSF for MEPv6
TKSS18 German Uboats Compilation NoEagle
FixAllSubGWX
Moon Light Mod
SH3 VolumetricClouds
MEPv6 VisualSensors
GWX Contact Color
ARB WideGui 3.0
ARB WideGui 3.1

When I'm in the game, I still have the default GUI for SH3.

I have tried to turn on "WideGui" which, I think, comes with GWX 3.0
I do get a wider 1080P interface, but nothing that relates to ARB.
Especially the nav map I get a small nav map on the left, with a book on the right.

Been unable to make screenshots, trying to take a screenshot freezes the game...

As interface, when I'm in the nav map, I get the Ahnenerbe that is visible here :

I have turned off that WideGui from Ahnenerbe
And with both 0.3 + 0.3.1 of ArbWideGui

I am still stuck on the default SH3 interface.

This is my current enabled mods :

Trying to get the ARb thing to work, but after several days, nothing works.

Note: I am using a sh3.exe Tycho3 patched. Not sure if it's required, but seems it is.

Are you using MultiSH3 for a new, unique Save folder for SH3, or did you delete the old data in the original one (C:\Users \UserName \Documents \SH3)? I am almost certain you have some mod conflicts with what you are trying to do, but you will have to wait for more authoritative help in that regard... I am basically a noob when it comes to SH3 mod lists, and I use the KISS principle, since I are the 2nd "S" in that acronym...

Well I can try to reinstall everything again.
But the mode seems active, I applied the Tycho3 patch to the binary
I see that ARB mode is active, but in both navigation map and attack map the screen is split in 2.

And when I go check the map.cfg file the resolution lines for both seem correct.

Reinstalling doesnt help.

I gave up on the wideGui stuff. I now just use GWX 3.0 + default GUI.

As soon I put my hands on my SH4 Deluxe Metal box I'll install SH4, and never launch SH3 again.

Time to move on.
