2-Creating a hunter

To create a hunter just simply choose the model and apprance and then after 
just write the desired name. All the other info such as town, state and e-mail 
is totally optional.

*note: the stats on the left side of the screen will indicate how many hunts 
you've been in, deer shot, your accuratcy during your hunts and accuratcy at 
the target range.

===============================================================================

3-Game Animals and non game animals

game animals: because this is a deer hunting game, the only game animals are as 
              you can guess deer.

 deer: whitetail deer and mule deer

 *If you have trouble identifing mule deer from whitetail deer just remember 
 that mule deer have larger ears, darker color, more white on the face and legs
 and have a rope shaped tail with a black tip.

 *both whitetails and mule deer have the same antler models.

non game animals: Butterflies, Dragonflys, Bees, Turtle, Trout, Rabbit, 
                   Squirrel, ruffed grouse, pheasant, quail, woodcock and 
                  ....the bigfoot.

 *note: Most of them are unkillable and unbagable, but you will see blood fly
        out when you shoot them.

==============================================================================  

4-Equipement

 
 Firearms
 
 .270 Bolt Action Rifle

 This is the best gun in the whole game. Very accurate at long range, great 
 knock down power and handling make this rifle a deer butcher.

 Carrys up to 5 bullets

 .280 Bolt Action Rifle

 Preformes the same way as the .270 except that its rate of fire is slower.

 Carrys up to 5 bullets

 .308 Bolt Action Rifle

 Has the best knock down power of any gun in the game but its handling, 
 rate of fire and low accuratcy is its downside.

 carrys up to 5 bullets

 30-06 Bolt Action Rifle

 Good all round gun. Has good accuratcy, knock down power and rate of fire
 but the hangling is poor.

 carrys up to 5 bullets

 7mm Bolt Action Rifle

 One of the best all round guns in the game next to the .270.

 carrys up to 5 bullets

 .243 Lever Action Rifle

 This gun is step down from the rifles your use to shooting because of its 
 more limited range, longer reload and knock down power. However it carrys
 lots of shells, rapide rate of fire and good handling.  

 carrys up to 7 bullets

 .30-30 Lever Action Rifle

 Operates the same way as the .243 except it has more knock down power and
 more limited range.

 carrys up to 7 bullets

 Muzzleloader

 The most challenging gun to use in the game. Because it can only fire 1
 shot, poor accuratcy, slow reload and handling and limited range make
 this weapon a real challenge to hunt with.

 carrys up to 1 bullet

 10 Gauge Over-Under Shotgun
 
 This gun is probably the most powerful weapon in the game. However because
 this firearm is heavy, the aim gets shacky after awhile, the hunter tires
 out faster carring it and the reload is slow. 

 carrys up to 2 shells 

 12 Gauge Pump Shotgun

 The best all around shotgun. With good range, handleling, shell compasty, rate 
 of fire and knock down power its good for deer hunting.  

 carrys up to 5 shells

 12 Semi Automatic Shotgun

 Good all around gun like the pump but because of its quick pointing, some 
 shooters may have trouble hitting fast running targets.  

 carrys up to 5 shells

 44 Pistol

 This handgun is very powerful at close to medium ranges and has a fast rate
 of fire but it is slow to reload and is not good to use for longer ranges.

 carrys up to 6 bullets

 9mm Pistol

 Possibly the worst weapon in the game cause its extremly short range and lack
 of knock down power and accuratcy. The only good advantage it has is that
 its very fast rate of fire and it carrys up to 9 bullets.

 carrys up to 9 bullets

 Crossbow

 Very good weapon if you know how to shoot it. Its been toned down from the
 original crossbow from BHWWE but its still very stealty and accurate.

 carrys 1 arrow

 Compound Bow

 While this bow may have only 1 shot, limited range and very slow reload, 
 it is very stealthy and powerful.

 carrys up to 1 arrow

 
 Equipement

 Binoculars

 Binoculars are the most useful tool for deer hunting. Its useful for 
 determining sexes and trophy status of deer and shooting range. You can
 also use it to identifie deer if you got trouble identifing them.

 Spotting Scope

 This item is used like binoculers except that it has way more zoom which 
 makes it better for spotting deer from a long range.

 Map

 This is the most USEFUL item in the game next to your firearm. With 
 maps you can find new areas in a location your hunting and for finding 
 your way around.

 GPS (Global Positioning System)

 This item is nearly identical to the map except its not as descriptive 
 but however it dose indicate. the direction your going.
 *The waypoints do NOT work. This is probably a glitch or something.

 Compase

 Another extremly important item for your hunts. This will indicate the 
 direction that your going.
 
 Camera

 Used to take pics of your hunts and whatever you see.
 *taking pictures of ambient animals will cause your game to crash. Its 
 another glitch not fixed. 

 Backpack

 Used to increase the amount of items you can carry by 2 units. However 
 it may make the hunter slow down more frequently.

 Journal

 This item is not has important has other items but it is usfull when hunting
 in season mode to record hotspots.
 *what you write in it wont save cause of a glitch in the game.

 
 Stands

 Permanent Tree Stand

 A large heavy stand normally used for season mode. It offers more 
 consealment than the ordinary tree stand and is essantiel for most kinds of
 deer hunting. 
 *keep in mind that once you place it in an area in season mode you WONT be
 abel to retrieve it until the end of the season.

 Portable Tree Stand

 The ligther version of the permanent one. Still has good just that you
 can place it anywere or anytime you wish.

 Tripod

 Fonctions similarly to the tree stand just that instade of placeing it on
 trees, you place it on the ground.
 *keep in mind that you can only turn 180.

 Ground Blind

 When theres no trees or cover this stand is the ticket. Very usful when 
 calling in deer. 


 Attractents

 Decoy

 Used to lure in deer closer. When used with calls and scents, its even
 better.

 Dripbag

 Use mostly to attract bucks. It works ONLY when you place it on a real
 scrape.

 Corn Seed

 An item used mostly in season mode it can be very useful to plant corn in
 areas where there is none to create new hotspots. 

 Wheat Seed
 
 An item used mostly in season mode it can be very useful to plant wheat in
 areas where there is none to create new hotspots.

 On this mode you'll be able to do a complete season on any map of your 
 choise. You'll be able to scout hotspots and place stands and other 
 equipement. The season will end once you fill in both tags and you'll 
 start another year in the genarel area.
 *Every year the bucks antlers get bigger and populations fluctuate.


 Quick Hunt

 This mode lets you just go on a normal hunt without starting a season.
 *You'll ONLY be abel to bag 1 deer.

=========================================================================

6-Hunting Techniques

 


 Spot and Stalk

 This is a methode used mostly for wide open areas. All it simply is is
 just spotting a deer and stalking up to shotting and then shooting it. 
 This technique with a bow considerably more challenging and is possibly
 the most challenging type of hunt with a bow on dh3.


 Still Hunting

 This technique is mostly used in areas that your unfamiliar with or with
 dense cover. It envolves just walking slowly stopping every so often to
 spot or hear deer.

 
 Stand Hunting

 This hunting methode is one of the easiest to do. Just set up any stand 
 you want near a main feeding area or travel route and wait for the deer
 to come...however it could take some time.


 Tracking

 One of the oldest hunting techniques in history. Just simply find deer 
 tracks with the describe the sceen key and the old fashioned way the eyes.
 Tracks are not the only sigh deer leave behind, look for deer poop, scrapes
 and fallen antlers. Once you've found a deers trail follow it sthealty and
 while keeping the wind in your face.


 Calling, decoying and scents

 Probably the best way for beigniers in this game to hunt. Go to an area
 that has deer and start calling. Call only sparingly has too much calling
 CAN spook deer as the same thing with using too much scents. When calling,
 decoying and scents are mixed together they are much more effective.
 
 *spooked deer will alwase come back so if you spook 1 dont worry.

 Blood Trail Tracking
 
 Not really a hunting technique but it very important is you wound a deer.
 The types of shots that require tracking are grazing, wounded or some times
 lung. Lung shot deer will usally drop within 15 to 20 yards, wounded deer
 will drop within 50 to 100 yards and grazing shot deer will alwase be 
 still alive. First thing to look for when you wound a deer is blood and
 then start following its trail. When tracking a grazed shot deer keep
 in mind that it will much warier than usall so as soon as you see it take
 it down right away.

 Deer vs Hunter

 The newest type of multiplayer gameplay for deer hunter. This mode the
 player has the option to play as a deer or as a hunter. To play has the 
 deer you must make a new profile and choose whether you wanna be either
 a whitetail or mule deer and buck or doe. The deer players can NOT be used
 in Quick hunt or season hunt. In this mode as well the only deer on the 
 maps will be deer players and not the game deer. Joining and hosting is the 
 same as in a normal multiplayer game. To control the deer, there are action
 that can be done by clicking on one of the icon on the tool bar. They are
 walk and look, head shake, bound, scrape, graze, call 1, call 2 and poop.
 When you preform an action the button will disapere for a short periode of
 time while the deer is preforming the action. Theres a timer on the action
 button that will tell you how much time is left. You can also move the deer
 with the arrow keys, make it turn its head left or right with the mouse and
 bound while press Shift. The main goal for the deer in this mode is to get 
 as close possible while accumuling and without getting killed in the 
 allowed time. The compase will indicate to you where is the nearest hunter
 in meters. On the full screen there will be 4 indicatators, the direction 
 to the nearest hunter, hunters distance, points and wind direction. You 
 can accumulate points by premorming actions from with in 50 to 99 yards of
 the hunter. The hunters objective is very simple, just kill the deer. When
 the hunter kills the deer he/she has a choise to take the deer back to
 the trophy room or to continue hunting. The deer player will respawn in
 a certain time limit after it has been killed or bagged. The game ends 
 when the time runs out. When the deer player wins it keeps the points and
 if its a buck, its rack will get bigger for everytime he/she wins.
 The deer will accumulate points by being within 99 yards and by preforming
 actions within that distance. When you are between 50 to 99 yards of the
 hunter you gain 1 point for every 5 seconds. When you are within 49 yards 
 or less you gain 2 points per 5 seconds. If your farther away than 200
 yards you'll start to lose 2 points per second. Diffrent action performed
 within 99 or less will give you points.

  Action			Points		Time

  Poop				2		15 seconds
  Graze				3		5 seconds
  Call 1			12		5 seconds
  Call 2			12		5 seconds
  Scrape			2		5 seconds
  Bound				2		15 seconds

13-Rares, Glitches and Easter Eggs

 Rares

  The bigfoot
 
 On some hunts on rare occasions you can find the bigfoot creature. You 
 cannot kill and bag him but you could take pics. If your really serious
 about finding this rare, heres a few tips.
 -Bigfoots footsteps sound just like your hunter's.
 -Look for huge feet prints
 -Sometimes it will roar, something to listen for.
 *On some custom maps bigfoot is very common.

 
 Glitches

 Dissappearing turtles
 To do this, just find any turtle and walk over it and it will vanish.

 just had and it be automacticly reloaded without the long wait. 

 Auto Crossbow reload anytime
 To do this shoot your arrow, click on look and then click on your
 firearm again.

 Hunter mistaking ambients for Deer
 This is an annoying glitch to watch for when hunting.
 When you look at an animal such as a squirrel or rabbit press the
 descripbe the sceen key and the hunter will identifie them as deer.
 Some times when you look at a doe then a buck, and you press the
 descripbe the sceen key it will identifie the buck as a doe.


 Easter Eggs

 On some large buldings you look at it will say the sunstorm ranch,
 this is a reference to the producer of this game witch is Sunstorm.

 Sylum Oats Cereal and lemon pop
 On the cereal boxes and pop cans if you look on them with your scope
 you see the name brand Sylum on them, again a reference to Sylum 
 witch is one of the compagnies that helped out Sunstorm with deer

14-Frequently asked Questions and Awnsers

 Q-How come the waypoints on the gps dont work?
 
 A-Because its glitch.

 
 Q-How come my hunter gets tired after running or jumping?
 
 A-Well would'nt you be after running or jumping in the bush?


 Q-In season mode do the deer get bigger every year?
  
 A-Yes and no. Some deer live get and bigger while others die and have
   desendents.


 Q-Im having trouble finding and killing trophy bucks, any advise?

 A- The first thing you have to know is what a trophy looks like, it
   is importent to know the difffrence between a good buck and a trophy.
   Here is a list to help.


  The 12 pointer
  The 12 pointer will have 6 tines per side, this buck is the most common
  trophy.

  The 14 pointer
  The 14 pointer looks the same as the 12 pointer except that it has 2
  extra tines.

  The 16 pointer
  The 16 pointer looks nearly identical to the 14 pointer except that its
  brow tines are forks and they are barely visible which it why a spotting
  scope is the most important tool to use when hunting trophy deer.
 
  The 16 point non-typical
  Looks the same as the 14 pointer but just that it has 2 tines growing
  downward. 
  *this is the rarest type of buck to find in the game.

  The 18, 20 and 22 pointer
  Looks the same as the 14 or 16 but it has an extra tine, its tines are
  longer and curves a bit. These are the true trophies of deer hunter 3.
  *The rack models of the 18, 20 and 22 is the same so its impossible to
   tell them appart just by looking at them.

   To hunt trophy bucks you must keep in mind that your hunting the most 
   wariest deer in the game so you must hunt a bit more stealthyer than
   normal. Alwase stalk from downwing, walk as often as possible to place
   without running, use cover scent often and when calling they take more
   time comming into the call so dont overcall or spook other deer. And
   finally you must remember that trophy bucks dont load on every hunt
   so even when you have found one try to rehunt the map again.

 
 Q-Do certain maps produce more trophy bucks than others?
 
 A-No, it depense how often and how hard you hunt a map is what will
   produce some.


 Q-Can u tell me the cheats for this game?

 A-No, no and finally no.
