wolf Disappearing deck gun ammo?

I really need some help with this one.

I downloaded the mods "All weather Guns" and "Extra Ammo" and now I have NO ammo for my deck gun!

It shows on the screen, but when I go to use the gun it says "We have no ammunition"

After install of the mods I got the message "Read me file has been overwritten"

I have not been able to figure out how to get my ammo back! What file determines deck gun ammo?

I am using SH3 GWX3.0

Thanks for any help and happy hunting!

There are TWO sets of values you must change in /SilentHunterIII/data/Cfg/Basic.cfg/
make these values anything you want; 250 and 3000 are the GWX defaults


Located after [Torpedo_Type10] and before [Color_0]

[SUBMARINE_AMMOLIMITS1] ;105mm
MaxAmmoPerSlot=250

[SUBMARINE_AMMOLIMITS2] ;88mm
MaxAmmoPerSlot=250

[SUBMARINE_AMMOLIMITS3] ;37mm
MaxAmmoPerSlot=3000

[SUBMARINE_AMMOLIMITS4] ;20mm
;MaxAmmoPerSlot=3000
MaxAmmoPerSlot=3000




Located further down, after [Conning_Type12] almost at the end of the file

[AMMO_TYPE0];10.5cm SK C/32
Idx=0
Year=1939
Month=1
;AP=40
<= these are the stock SH3 default values
;HE=160


;SS=20
AP=0 <= these are the default values in GWX
HE=250
SS=0
Renown=0

[AMMO_TYPE1];8.8cm SK C/35
Idx=1
Year=1939
Month=1
;AP=40
<= these are the stock SH3 default values
;HE=160
;SS=40
AP=0 <= these are the default values in GWX
HE=250
SS=0
Renown=0


[AMMO_TYPE2] thru [AMMO_TYPE10] are for the AA guns. Change values if you wish. GWX default is 3000.

Thanks for the help Raptor, I was able to fix the problem with the advice Fubar gave me.

I like your "Aces of the Deep" character! Great game.

Raptor, can the AP rounds be changed from 0 to 60 or more? Or will that mess up the HE=250rounds? It would be nice to at least have some AP rounds to go with the HEs.

Raptor, I've been trying what you show to get the deckgun ammo back. It's not working for me. Does this work for all GWX versions?
