: rowi58 March 21, 2009, 05:15:55 AM

Hi folks,

the new version 4.0 is ready for download. First of all - please read the "download and installation instruction" - this is very important for a proper running LSH3-MOD. You can download this:

ENGLISH Version (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/DownloadInstall-Instruction-40.pdf)

or for those who can read (and understand) german:

DEUTSCHE Version (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/Downloadanweisung-40.pdf)

Just click on the LINK above, and  save that PDF on your computer.  kaffee



After reading the installation instruction, you can download the following 6 files (download them all in ONE folder!):

LSH3_Version4.7z.001 (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3_Version4.7z.001)

LSH3_Version4.7z.002 (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3_Version4.7z.002)

LSH3_Version4.7z.003 (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3_Version4.7z.003)

LSH3_Version4.7z.004 (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3_Version4.7z.004)

LSH3_Version4.7z.005 (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3_Version4.7z.005)

LSH3_Version4.7z.006 (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3_Version4.7z.006)


After that download, install LSH3 4.0 as it is writen in the installtion instruction. Have fun  leb1

What is "LivingSilentHunter3 Version 4.0"? It is a so called "super-MOD" like GWX or NYGM, combined of more than 250 MODs which were made for SH3. At the moment, there is only a "german" manual (english version will follow). You can download it here:

LSH3-Handuch-V-40-GE.pdf (http://supermods.silenthuntermods.com/LSH3/LSH3-Handuch-V-40-GE.pdf)

The main objectiv of LSH3 is playing the career in SH3. Some single mission are integrated too. So start your career and see what happens. In a very, very short summary, here are some main topics of LSH3:
- you can start your career at August, 1st 1939 (only in the flotilla "Erprobungsstelle Kiel");
- after every patrol, you can transfer to another flotilla (if you want);
- you only can get new sub types at the flotilla "Erprobungsstelle Kiel". If you want to chnage from am type II to a Type VII, you first must transfer to the flotilla "Erprobungsstelle Kiel" and make a trial patrol in the baltic sea. After this trial patrol, you can transfer back to your "old" flotilla;
- the availability of new sub types and important equipment will be announced by radio messages - and within a "UpgradeChart" you can find in the upper left corner of the navigation screen;
- from mid 1943, you will have massiv air raids, even in your base/harbours;
- when you are attacking a convoy in the biscay (or in the range of the "Luftwaffe"), you can order "Luftwaffe"-assistance  by retorting contct to that convoy;
- your final mission in April/May 1945 is: escape to Buenos Aires;
- and many more...

LSH3 is totaly based on the 16-km-atmosphere-MOD-V2 by Markimov et.al. That means in Standard LSH3 you can see some 15.000 m, in "ExtendenChallenge" Add-On, vibibility is limited to nearly 10.000 m. A standard 8-km-atmosphere is not supported.

Compatibility. LSH3 is very specific. If you want to add an other  mod, please have a look into appendix H (of the manual). There you will find a list of files which should not be modified/changed by other mods - otherwise you will loose functionality or you will get CTD (crash-to-desktop).

But fortunately, we can offer some mods which are made/adapted specially for LSH3. This list will be in the next post.

Good evening to everybody,
I have installed this mod, which appears to me as very well made concerning graphics, about the gameplay I'll look into that during my tests later on. I'm deeply trying it in both single mission and career.
In short, all in all very beautiful graphical, "very nice" !
"Thanks" to you.

Hi,
Just came across LSH4 and am eager to try it, but how to open it? Followed instructions to the letter and end up with 'LSH3_Version4, size is 459332, type of file Winrar,' in my Ubisoft folder, along with SH3. I don't understand this since it starts off as 7z. If I try to open it I get ' Can not open D:\Ubisoft\LSH_4 Version 4.7z as archive'. Obviously something is wrong ,but what? Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Only the file

If one or more of these files don't have that size - then something went wrong during d/l. If that has happend, d/l the file(s) again.

Hi again,
Thanks for the replies. Yes, it's a D/L problem, flie 1 9426, file 4 788, file 6 3580. Will keep D/Ling until I get the right size. Should have spotted this myself.

Hi rowi58,
            I now have the files as they should be. Looking forward to getting it up and running. I tried several repeat D/Ls before I asked for help, and each time they were different sizes! Maybe because I tried to do them all at once. I have 3 'supermods' on my computer so will be able to compare and let you know what I think.

Hi rowi58,
LSH up and running, and I like what I have seen so far but why no Swastika cross on the German flags? Altogether a great new mod, for me any way. I admire you guys who have the knowhow and patience to build these things. Thanks again.

but why no Swastika cross on the German flags?

I can tell you why, without being German, but Germany has laws against the use of swastika, and since the mod is mostly developped through German based forums, it would be unwise to include it, though it's historically correct.
But it can be added if you like...

: Re: LivingSilentHunter3 Version 4.0
: ridgewayranger May 04, 2009, 09:14:53 PM

Hi There,
Yes I would like to use the German flag. Can I copy files from SH3 and if so ,which ones? Right now I have a more pressing problem. I did the first mission, sunk a couple of target ships in AO83. The next mission again said AO83 but on loading I found myself in the middle of the Gulf of Guinea, a loooong way from AO83! Deleted all saved files and tried to start again, using SH3Commamder of course, with the LSH Mod but can't start because I can't select a Flotilla or boat type. What is wrong?

: rowi58 May 05, 2009, 08:57:04 AM

Hi ridgewayranger,

thx that you like this MOD.

the very easy way to see the swastik is:
- go to folder Textures/TNormal/tex
- delete "german.tga"
- delete "germanM.tga"
(these files are delivered by Ubi for the "german version")

When you delete these files, the "original" flags from the Flag.dat will be shown. Thats all.

Thanks rowi58. Now I've got it. The other problem was cured by removing the Mod, then putting it back. Files must have got corrupted. All's well that ends well, to quote the immortal Bard.
Now I can get down to a new career.

RR.

Hi ridgewayranger,

it is very easy to change the flotillas. You must only have one complete patrol in each flotilla. I'll eyplain it from the begining of a career:
1. start a new career - absolutly new.
2. DO NOT fit your boat with additional eqipment BEFORE your first patrol (SH3 don't like this  kapsur ).
3. start you patrol and finaly go bach to your home-base and finish your 1st patrol there.
4. after that, go (one step back) into your office and click on the telephone.
5. selct a flotilla and klick on the flotillas name
6. then click on "Appley for Transfer" (very important, otherwise the transfer would not work).

That's all. Then you must have been transfered to the new flotilla. Hope it helps.

Greetings.

Okay, so I have been playing LSH3 3 times now, and twice met "mittlere Passiegierschiff", a bugger of roughly 6.500 tons.
This one is really hard to sink, I think.  cry3
Anyone else having problems?

Playing with auto tdc, and being within 1000 meters and having an angle of +/- 15 degrees, it doesn't show the "cheat" boxes either, you know the setting point for aiming fuel bunkers, motor room, keel etc.

I guess I could play around the ship's zon file. But wanted to ask first.

: Re: LivingSilentHunter3 Version 4.0
: rowi58 May 09, 2009, 09:31:27 AM

Hi Carotio,

this is a converted SH4-ship (NPL_Horai), that's the reason why you don't see the "cheat" boxes (no entries in the NPL_Horai.cfg file!). Mostly, you'll need two or three torpedoes to sink this ship (depends on the weather). Most of the SH4-converted ships need two torpedoes or more. I've got that ship several times without any problems.

Greetings

: Re: LivingSilentHunter3 Version 4.0
: Carotio May 09, 2009, 11:06:44 AM

Okay, I had my ideas as to why, and SH4 was one of them.
It just irritated me to see that bugger go on as nothing had happened, it didn't even slow down.
Tried both contact and magnetic.
I may just have been unlucky, I guess...  vikingsm

Thx Johno,

very good  news  2thup - i'll foreward them to "blueduck" and his "clan".

You have a translated english version of the manual? Wonderful, that's the "missing link". Without an english manual, i would not make an "official release" post in subsim. A manual is one of the most important parts of support for the user (although most user didn't read manuals  readsm ). And support is the key issue for acceptance - see GWX and "bigboywooly"/"jimbuna" for example. So, i would be very glad if i can use your manual or psrts of them (for general questions only). Just the text - layout, pictures and documentation will be done by myself. And - of course - with full credits to the translator(s).

Hi,

no, we have only a translation (by owner20071963) into english at the moment. As planed, we'll have a new release 5.0 in September, 2009, then complete with manual (hope i'll be ready earlier with the layout, so we can launch the present release with it).

A translation into french is a lot of work - not only the manual, also the radio messages, the SingleMissions, completly new menu_fr.txt and so on (as GWX has made).

Salut,

non, en ce moment nous n'avons qu'une traduction (par owner20071963/Johno) en anglais. C'est prévu de lancer la nouvelle édition 5.0 en septembre 2009, complètement avec le manual (j'espère de pouvoir finir le layout plus tôt, alors que nous pouvons lancer l'édition présent avec le manual).
Une traduction en français est un grand travail - non seulement le manual, mais aussi les messages radio, le mission single, complètement nouveau menu_fr.txt etc (comme GWX l'a fait).

amitiés

*****
My proposal:
if a Frenchman capable of speaking good English could participate with LSH3 team to do a translation job, then maybe a French version could appear???
Yes, I know, I speak both French and English, but I don't have time myself for the moment. And both a foreign languages for me. It would be best with a native Frenchman, I think.

Je propose:
s'il y a un(e) Français(e) qui parle déjà très bien l'anglais, peut être qu'il/elle peut aider le groupe LSH3 en faisant un travail de traduction, et donc il pourra y avoir une édition française aussi???
Oui, je sais que moi je parle et le français et l'anglais, mais je n'ai pas le temps pour le moment moi-même. Et puis aussi toutes les deux sont languages étrangères pour moi. Je crois que c'est mieux avec un Français.

Hey guys,

Just got the LSH3 v4 mod last night, I see their is a Helmut wick when i choose new career what is this kapitan for, am i suppose to start new career as him?  I read here its like following a campaign of your own - hence i will have to escape to Argentina in 1945 kinda like how SH2 was. One of the reasons i thought i did try this mod out but i see no type of career captain feeling if you know what i mean its just choose boat an go out and sink ships in grid then return to base.  Did i get it wrong about a single player career type of campaign?  Anyway its far too early days yet Ive just done one patrol and come in here to grab some mods for the LSH3.

Apart from that the water in this mod is the best ive come across, the graphic detail all round is excellent.  rockon 

Well im off to enable these mods and go on next patrol. Keep up the good work  thup1

I have downloaded LSH3, but I have a question about mods. Are there mods especially made for LSH3 or is it possible to use other mods (e.g. GWX) in LSH3?

Thanks!

Hi Popeye,

we have special MODs for LSH3. You can download them from this site:

http://lsh3.com/v4/index.html (http://lsh3.com/v4/index.html)

MODs which are specially made for GWX will mostly not run with LSH3. MODs which only change the TGA graphics will run with LSH3 too.

Hi Rowi,

Great! Thank you for your swift answer.

It should be great if LSH3 modders would upload it to any hosting provider (or here) so that people (like me from The Netherlands) don't get confused.

Because there are soooo many mods out there ....

I cannot wait until you will release LSH v.5 this would be awesome!  piratey

Hey Rowi!

Thanks, but I knew this link.

Do you know that there is a small bug in the map screen, where the ruler is etc. etc. (down below)? You can (with your mouse), drag the horizontal background picture/image.

Furthermore, I installed OLC GUI (the one specialy made for LSH3), but this mod did not worked quite good for me. For example, some icons like observation periscope doesn't work when you click on it.

(http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af281/datalogica/LSH3.jpg)

I cant wait when the new v.5 version will be released!

Hey Popeye,

never heard of this bug - i'll take a look at this. I can foreward the problem with OLC GUI to "KretschmerU99", who is "responsible" for slide-outs and other GUIs. I'm realy a "fan" of UBI's classic GUI and using only this GUI.

Great! So I was right and could help here  yes1

Q. 1 = Is it down-loadable? And where?
Q. 2 = OLC GUI (the one specialy made for LSH3) is it correct that you can not use the arrows peri/observation scope and that some menu items don't work?

Thanks again!  wink1

Hi Popeye,

to your question #1: it is not downloadable, but will be integrated in Version 5.0. It is very easy to change it (you just need a text-editor).

Open the file "mwnu_1024_768.ini" (in the folder "data/Menu"). Search for the string leer . You will find this string within the following block:

[G31 I29]
Name=Target;                          Neuer Eintrag für Transparentmod Leer.tga
Type=1031;Stat bmp array
ItemID=0x31000006
ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=0,130,1024,130
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/Menu/Gui/Layout/Leer.tga
Crop 0=0,0,1,1
MatFlags=0x9
TexFmt=0x9
Drag=true
BmpState=1
NeedFocus=true

and then chnge the entry:

Drag=true

into:

Drag=false

That's all. Your question #2 was forarded to KretschmerU99, but i still didn't get any answer.

Thanks Rowi,

Very simple to change it and a good explanation how to do it. Maybe you can inform people in a readme.txt when they download your LSH3 version 4.

 ;)

Keep up to good work!

Hello Rowi,

I don't understand what "Notiz" is/means (of course I know the word), but how can you use it in LSH3? You can find it on the navigation map (left top) and drag it. But can you write in it?

Or is it just for show?

Thanks again!

Hi Popeye,

"Notiz" (or notice) is an emty TGA in which you can write your "personal" informations (for example "good" PQ for hunting).

IIRC, the name of that TGA is "Notiz_leer.tga" (or "Notice.tga"), you can find it in the folder "data/Menu/GUI/Layout". Open this file with "GIMP", "Photoshop" or something like this an edit this TGA - add the information you need.

This was an idea of a LSH3-user - blueduck - and he made a small tutorial (in german) which is included in the folder "Documentation".

I am from the United States & have been trying to d/l this mod x6 now. It will not d/l in it's entirety. Is there possibly someone who can d/l LSH3 for me in it's entirety & send the CD to me. I would pay some for someone to help me. I am really wanting to play this super mod.

May i suggest that with version 5 being released very soon it might be a good idea to first try this new version and if you have no luck then ask again then  thup1

How soon will version 5 be out & will it have an english manual. Do you have an english manual for version 4 so I can read it? Also have a question with the instalation. What do you mean by inserting the main cfg into the folder Desktop/MyName/Documents?SH3/Data/Cfg? I have looked all over for this folder. How do I put in Seawolf's battlesub into the game?
I have just started the game & everytime I look out the external camera I am at a 45 degree angle, what can I do to correct that?

Dear friends of LSH3,

regrettably our modding specialist „Grandmaster“  ROWI58  has retreated from the team at short notice and unexpectedly.

His farewell has hit the team very hard, even though, concerning the release of LivingSilentHunter III, we are on the home stretch.

We respect your decision, Rowi, and wish you all best physically, professionally and privately.

The complete LSH team cordially thanks you for your intensive, loving and untiring work on "your" LSH, for the many tips and helps you gave every particular in the team and in the Com up to the exhaustion.


LivingSilentHunter III would not have reached this high level of quality without you – it is your „masterpiece“.


To use the words of my previous speakers (hier... (http://forums-de.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/2371008762/m/7351092836?r=7791034597#7791034597)):


„Captain ROWI58 has abandoned the ship“.
But not without setting it up with a save course to the harbour.


The work around LivingSilentHunter III V5 is nearly completed.

The team is doing extensive testing and we are finishing the documentations in English and German.

The timetable for the release in the midst of November can be held.

We feel committed to all players of SH3/LSH3 to give optimal support in the future.

We thank the Com on the whole world, which by their interest and feedback keeps SH3 “alive”.


In the name of the LSH-Team
Blueduck

I did all the steps. i extracted the first folder. but when i got to LSH3_Version4.7z.002 and the rest it wouldnt let me extract those. and the folder where u can activate and deactivate didnt pop up either. i did download 7z and that works good.

Hello Shadow_Striker,

did you DL the .BAT and .SPLIT file too?
Did you read the install-manual?

The .BAT will create a .EXE which has to be run.
7-zip not necessary!
