never seen one owned game since release

All I can say is, look north. Greenland, near the whaling stations. I found mine by hydrophone, identified as a single merchant, stationary. They're out there.

Kaleu. Jochen Mohr · 05-04-07, 08:45 PM

what do you mean with whaling stations ?

You'll only see the icebergs if you're using one of the supermods, such as GWX, etc. If you're just using a vanilla install of SH3 with minor mods, you won't get icebergs in the campaign. You WILL see some on single missions, however.

Check far north on the map, there is a couple of places identified as whaling stations, usually in allied control....

hang on. You are running GWX arent you?

Ok, well look up at the north of the map, there should be a whaling station or two (I am in 1940 at the moment), I essentially went to within about 100kms of the whaling station closest to England, then began heading roughly south west via greenland onto the Halifax convoy route, hydrophone picked up the iceberg contact just south of Greenland. If I could find an online version of the map with grid refs i could give you the grid ref it was in!

can someone in the know post up a pic of the chart within the game and circle the likely areas to see a 'berg?

I am also very keen to see one

As far as I know, GWX is the only mod that fixes the icebergs. IIRC they had spawning problems... and definately had no functional propulsion.

Thanks to Ref, Cdre Gibs, and Rubini we fixed 'em.

anyone have any screen shots of bergs to wet my appetite?

Watch one of Stabiz's vids cuz one of his vids show icebergs, forgot the name of it tho.

Been using GWX since it was released and still only seen IB's in a mission never in a campaign game. That's why I'm sailing out of Bergen at the moment.
