after finally making just the right tiny change to the .dat file, I finally got the radar to work on the Type XXI. This, in combination with other changes, means the boat is fully functional and playable with the sole exception of the slow surfacing issue (solved by blowing ballast) I know nobody plays this type but me but if there's any interest now or later, I can upload the modified file.

Imminent, imminent not really … well yet… still lot of work to correct all those random units
And after, I have the SCR file to check too
Each unit one by one… manually editing … have to check all the unit waypoints path … many errors giving plenty units crashing into islands or coasts… hence never seen in high seas!
Not to say about wrong dates, or wrong sides! (Found plenty Germans side 1 !)
Very time consuming.
8 hours by days, each days… even sundays… wife is VERY patient

PS: all units will have now latest equipment available at the travel date… that was not the case … at all!!
(Ie, none unit could have the Hhog in career, any date!)

Glad your wife is understanding .... otherwise we would be running in the dark.


Sounds like you have correct many possible issue and things not working as they should.


Kudos to you!

Are you sure that it leads to a CTD? I would guess SH3 will correct this automatically when loading a campaign.

Rather than take up space in the sticky, I've posted a new thread dedicated to the subject, and you can find the link there

Wrong dates could bring CTD yes. If you spawn a ship whose appearance date is later… or inverse

Wrong side will not bring CTD, but quite annoying gameplay speaking …

I even found nations that are not compatible in same convoy
No CTD either here, but some unwanted action for sure inside the rows!
That will be corrected anyway.

Back to work

Still correcting RND file

Convoys around England very close to coasts, could not work correctly due to incorrect waypoints radius (again)…
Now, I think (well, I’m sure in fact) they will travel without beaching from start to end
Corrected the row spacing too (of all game convoys) so they can spawn correctly everywhere without touching coasts…
The demanding of wide spacing of 1000m cannot work everywhere so they are not ALL 1000m spaced!

Also found dozens of double random groups … so I changed them for new units & path, to populate others planet parts

Back to work

De nada my friend

About the incorrect waypoints radius making ships collide coast… I believe that as long as the ship (or convoy) has not reached the last waypoint (ship will beach and stay there) game will not spawn new units at group starting point! Hence quite important that path must be smooth and correct

Don’t know who made NYGM units path waypoints, but there are so many errors
Plenty units couldn’t sail very far from start, when the loop=-1 and loop probability=0 (or 25)…
That’s gonna be an other game can tell you!
